Get found

Business email setup (Google Workspace or Zoho) A you@yourbusiness.co.za inbox that actually lands in inboxes. R190

A professional you@yourbusiness.co.za inbox, working on your phone before we're done talking. This is a one-time setup fee — I do the fiddly part (MX records, deliverability, the lot) so your mail actually lands in inboxes instead of spam folders. The monthly subscription runs on your card, in your name; I just make it work. Want premium and familiar? Google Workspace. Want barely-any-cost? Zoho. I'll set up whichever fits.

Google Analytics 4 — installation + config See who visits, where from, and where they bail. R190

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 Show up on Google Maps when locals search. R190

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.

"Get Found" bundle All three above, R80 cheaper. R490

Business email, Google Analytics, and Google Business Profile together — R80 off buying them separately. The three things that turn "I built a website" into "people are actually finding it."

Words & content

Copywriting (per page) Got nothing written? I interview you and write it. R150/page

Copy polish is already included — send me anything and I'll shape it. But if you've got nothing at all for a page? I'll interview you, learn the business, and write it myself, R150 per page. You talk, I type.

Blog + CMS (Keystatic) Publish posts yourself — no code, no subscription. R550

A blog with a simple editor (Keystatic — free, open-source, Git-based, no subscription) 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.

Gallery section Show off your work, products or space. R250

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

Additional page (beyond 5) Each page beyond the Standard five. R150/page

The Standard Build covers five pages. Need a menu, a portfolio, or an extra service page? Each one beyond five is a flat R150.

Sell & book

Light commerce "Buy" buttons for a handful of products. R850

Selling a handful of products? I'll wire in simple, working "buy" buttons using a hosted cart tool bolted onto your site — no bloated store to maintain. It costs nothing at everyday sales volumes; if you ever sell enough that the cart tool's own fee kicks in, I'll tell you the exact number before it happens. Payment gateway fees (a few percent per sale, plus a small flat fee) are separate and go straight to the gateway, never through me.

Bookings embed Let people book slots straight from your site. R250

Let people book appointments or slots straight from your site — synced to your calendar, sending its own reminders. The free tier of a proper booking tool (think Cal.com or Calendly) covers almost every small business; if you specifically need multiple staff calendars or advanced features, I'll flag the paid tier's cost before we add it.

Extras

Extra revision round Another full round of changes. R150

One round of changes comes with the Starter, two with the Standard Build and up. Want another full round after that? R150 per round, no drama.

Site Audit A straight verdict on the site you already have. R250

Already have a website that isn't pulling its weight? R250 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 R250 comes off the build price.

Optional aftercare

The Care Plan

R450/month · cancel anytime

Your site is yours and you can absolutely run it yourself. This is for people who'd rather never think about their website again.

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

Same rule as everything else: every account stays in your name. A care plan you can't leave isn't care — it's a leash, and I don't sell those.

The fine print. The good kind.

How does payment work?

A 50% deposit gets your build booked and started; the balance is due before your site goes live. Everything I make for you is handed over in full — code, logins, accounts, all in your name. You're never locked in, and you never need my permission to walk away. That's the whole idea: get found, and stay owned.

What does it cost to keep a site running?

What you pay me is once-off. Keeping a site live has a couple of small ongoing costs that belong to you — better 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. Yours whether you keep working with me or not.
  • Hosting usually R0 Genuinely. Modern, lightweight sites run on world-class infrastructure that costs nothing at small-business size. If yours needs paid hosting — a busy store, heavy traffic — you'll get the exact number before we start.
  • Business email R0 to ~R180 / user / mo Only if you add it. Zoho costs almost nothing; Google Workspace is around R130–R180 a month per inbox. Your call, your card.

If you're selling online

  • Shopify plan ~R568–R747 / mo Shopify's Basic plan, billed to you by Shopify directly. Your product count never forces an upgrade — only needing extra staff logins bumps you to Grow (~R1,465–R1,943/mo).
  • Payment gateway ~3.2–3.5% / sale A South African gateway (PayFast or Peach) takes a small cut per transaction, plus a rand or two flat. R0 monthly, paid straight to the gateway.
  • Skipping Shopify Payments +2% / sale If you use an outside gateway instead of Shopify's own, Shopify adds a 2% surcharge on each sale — something we'll weigh up together before deciding.

I don't mark any of this up and I don't hold the accounts. Before a store build, I'll run the real numbers for your case.

I already own a domain and hosting — what changes?

You get R350 off any build, as long as the domain and hosting are registered in your name and you can get into them. If a previous developer still controls them, getting access back is quoted separately — and yes, that situation is exactly why I run things the way I do.

Not sure what you need?

Let's figure it out together.

Most people aren't sure — that's my job. Tell me about your business and I'll point you to the right build with only the extras that earn their keep. No pressure, no jargon, no obligation.
