Pricing

Straightforward pricing. The kind you can read in one go.

One price for the standard build — and it now includes your domain and hosting setup, because a website you can't actually visit isn't a website. Add what you need from the list below; every add-on has a number next to it, because surprise invoices are a crime. Anything bigger gets a custom quote, agreed up front before I touch a thing.

A note on recurring costs What it costs to keep your site live

What you pay me is once-off. To keep a website live, there are two small yearly costs that belong to you — and I'd rather you hear about them now than when a renewal email lands.

  • Domain (.co.za) ~R150–R300 / year Registered in your name, renewed directly through the registrar. It's yours whether you keep working with me or not.
  • Hosting often R0 / year Genuinely. Because of how I build (modern static sites, not bloated page-builders), most of my clients' sites run on world-class infrastructure that costs nothing at their size. The R1,200-a-year hosting bill other builders quote you? For a standard build, you usually just don't have one. If your project genuinely needs paid hosting — bookings, a store, heavy traffic — I'll tell you the exact number before we start, and the account will be in your name.

I don't mark anything up and I don't hold the accounts. Once it's handed over, the billing — what little there is — is entirely yours.

Already own your domain and hosting? R900 off.

The discount applies where your existing domain and hosting are accessible and registered in your name. If a previous developer still controls them, recovering access is quoted separately — and yes, that situation is exactly why I run things the way I do.

Add-Ons — Fixed Prices, No Asterisks

Tap any add-on for a plain-English explainer. Every line has a number — no surprises.

Business email setup (Google Workspace) R750

A professional you@yourbusiness.co.za inbox, working on your phone before we're done talking. The subscription runs on your card, in your name — I just make it work. It's the cheapest credibility upgrade your business can buy.

Google Analytics 4 — installation + config R750

Analytics installed properly, plus a one-page "how to read this" cheat sheet written in human. You'll see how many people visit, where they came from, and which page they bailed on — facts, not vibes.

Google Business Profile — setup + optimisation R750

Your business on Google Maps and Search, set up and optimised — categories, service areas, photos, the lot. When someone nearby searches what you do at 9pm with a burst geyser, this is what decides whether you exist. You also get a review link to send happy customers, which is how this thing snowballs.

Full copywriting R1,500

Copy polish is already included — send me anything and I'll shape it. But if you've got nothing at all? I'll interview you, learn the business, and write every word of all five pages myself. You talk, I type.

Blog setup + CMS configuration R2,000

A blog with a simple editor so you can publish posts yourself — no code, no calling me every time you have something to say. Includes a training session and a written how-to guide. I build it once, teach you once, and then you're independent. That's the point.

Site Rescue Audit R850

Already have a website that isn't pulling its weight? R850 gets you a straight written verdict: what's broken (speed, mobile, Google visibility, who actually owns your accounts), what fixing it costs, or whether you're honestly better off rebuilding. No sales fog — if a small fix solves it, that's what the report will say. And if we do rebuild, the R850 comes off the build price.

Additional page (beyond 5) R700/page

The standard build covers five pages. Need a menu, a portfolio, or an extra service page? Each one beyond five is a flat R700.

Gallery section R600

A clean, responsive image gallery to show off your work, your products, or your space — looks sharp on phones too.

Extra revision round R500

Two rounds of changes come standard. Want another full round after that? R500 per round, no drama.

The Care Plan · R500/month — optional, cancel anytime

Most of my clients don't need ongoing help — that's the whole point of how I hand things over. But if you'd rather never think about your website again, this is for you.

What you get every month

  • Your hosting and domain renewals managed — nothing lapses, nothing expires quietly at 2am
  • Up to 2 small content changes a month (new prices, updated hours, a swapped photo — the stuff that actually comes up)
  • Uptime monitoring — if your site goes down, I usually know before you do
  • A short monthly summary of your traffic, in plain English
  • Priority WhatsApp support — you skip the queue

The same rules as everything else apply: every account stays registered in your name. Cancel anytime, take everything with you, owe me nothing further. A care plan you can't leave isn't care — it's a leash, and I don't sell those.

Need Something Bigger?

Online stores, booking systems, chatbots, full SEO campaigns — these live outside the standard build because no two are the same. Tell me what you're picturing and I'll come back with a real quote, not an "it depends."
