Setup & Launch

Everything outside
the build itself.

Designing and building a site is one part. Getting it live, set up correctly, and found on Google is another. These services cover everything before launch and the ongoing support that keeps it running after.

Pre-Launch — Domain & Hosting

Get your site on the internet.

Everything needed to connect a domain, configure DNS, and get the site deployed and live. These are separate from the design work itself.

Domain Registration

Help registering a new domain name through your preferred registrar (Namecheap, Google Domains, etc.). Includes advisory on naming and availability check.

$25

Domain Transfer

Move an existing domain from one registrar to another. Includes unlock, auth code retrieval, transfer initiation, and verification.

$30

DNS Configuration

Point your domain to its hosting provider by setting A records, CNAMEs, MX records, or any other DNS entries needed for the site to resolve correctly.

$20

Hosting Deployment

Deploy your completed site to a hosting provider — GitHub Pages, Vercel, or Netlify. Includes environment setup and first deployment.

$30

SSL Certificate Setup

Configure HTTPS for your site. Most modern hosts handle this automatically — this covers any manual steps or troubleshooting needed to get the padlock showing.

$15

Pre-Launch — Business Tools

Set up the tools that matter.

Optional setup services for the business tools your site should be connected to before going live. Each is a one-time flat-rate job.

Business Email Setup

Configure a professional email address at your domain (e.g. hello@yourbusiness.com) through Google Workspace or Zoho Mail. Includes DNS record setup and inbox verification.

$45

Google Analytics 4 Setup

Install GA4 tracking on your site, configure a property, set up basic events (page views, CTA clicks), and verify data is flowing correctly.

$30

Google Search Console

Verify your site's ownership, submit the sitemap, and confirm Google can crawl and index all pages. Includes initial coverage report review.

$20

Contact Form Backend

Connect your site's contact form to actually send emails — via Web3Forms, Formspree, or Resend. Includes setup, testing, and spam protection configuration.

$25

Favicon Setup

Create and implement a favicon from your logo or brand mark — sized and exported for all devices and browsers. Covers browser tab, mobile home screen, and OG formats.

$15

Social Share Image (OG Image)

Design and implement the preview image that appears when your site is shared on social media or in iMessage. Sized to og:image spec (1200×630).

$20

Sitemap Generation

Generate and upload an XML sitemap for your site. Submitted to both Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools.

$15

Pre-Launch — Site Configuration

The details that get missed.

Small setup items that aren't part of the design itself but need to be in place before the site is truly complete. Each is a flat-rate job.

robots.txt Setup

Configure which pages search engines should and shouldn't crawl. Includes setup of the robots.txt file and verification through Google Search Console.

$15

Custom 404 Page

Design and implement a branded 404 error page that matches the site. Keeps visitors on the site instead of bouncing when a URL breaks.

$20

Build and style the legal pages your site needs — Privacy Policy and/or Terms of Service. Content is provided by the client or sourced via a generator; this covers the page design and integration.

$20

Cookie Consent Banner

Add a compliant cookie consent notice to the site for businesses that need it. Simple, non-intrusive design that matches the site's style.

$20

Password Protection

Lock the site or a section of it behind a password — useful for keeping a site private during review, or for members-only pages.

$25

Pre-Launch — Quality Check

Review before it goes live.

A structured audit of the site before launch day. Catches what a first visitor would catch — before any actual visitors do.

Pre-Launch Site Audit

Full review across five areas: cross-browser display (Chrome, Firefox, Safari), mobile layout at 375px and 768px, all internal links, contact form submission, and Lighthouse performance score.

$50

Content Proofread

Line-by-line review of all copy on the site — spelling, grammar, consistency, and anything that doesn't sound like the business. Delivered as a tracked list of corrections.

$30

Basic SEO Check

Review of page titles, meta descriptions, heading hierarchy, image alt text, and canonical URLs across all pages. Delivered as a corrections checklist.

$30

Note: The Pre-Launch Audit is recommended for all sites regardless of tier. It's the last line of defense before real customers see the site.

Post-Launch — After It Goes Live

After the site is live.

One-time services for after launch — fixes, optimizations, and setup tasks that often only make sense once the site is in the wild.

Google Business Profile Setup

Create or claim your Google Business Profile, add photos, hours, services, and link it to your website. Helps local search visibility immediately after launch.

$35

301 Redirect Setup

Configure old URLs to redirect correctly after a site migration or restructure. Preserves any existing search ranking and prevents broken links for returning visitors.

$20

Speed Optimization Pass

Audit and implement quick wins for load time — image compression, lazy loading, render-blocking script fixes, and cache configuration. Delivered with before/after Lighthouse scores.

$50

Bing Webmaster Tools Setup

Verify the site with Bing Webmaster Tools and submit the sitemap. Often overlooked, but Bing drives meaningful traffic for local and small business searches.

$15
