RATES Clear before I code
Simple numbers.
Custom scope.
You should understand what you are paying for. Every build gets a written estimate; ongoing care has firm boundaries.
BUILD WORK
$60 / hour
Design, development, meetings, testing, and launch work. After our first call, I estimate the hours and put the scope in writing.
- Custom visual design
- Responsive Astro development
- Forms and integrations
- Custom backend or admin tools
- Testing and launch setup
WEBSITE CARE
$100 / month
For sites I build and manage. This keeps the technical foundation cared for without turning every small change into a new decision.
- Hosting and deployment management
- Availability and security checks
- Domain and DNS coordination
- Up to 30 minutes of minor content edits
- Email support during business hours
DEPOSIT Your place on the calendar
$100 to begin
The project deposit is due after you approve the written scope. It reserves your start date and is credited against the final build invoice—not added on top.
What counts as maintenance?
Included in website care
Small text or image swaps, routine dependency updates, monitoring, deployment help, and minor fixes to existing behavior.
Quoted at $60/hour
New pages, new features, redesigns, integrations, significant content entry, rush work, and anything outside the original site scope.
Unused monthly update time does not roll over. Third-party costs such as domain registration, paid services, transaction fees, or premium assets are billed separately with your approval.
