Fast on phones

We check every site we build with Lighthouse, Google's free page test, on phone settings. Our target is a score of 95 or more out of 100 in all four of its checks.

Some third-party tools, such as a booking widget, can lower a score.

Custom option: Built to your exact scope

Custom quotePriced by scope after a discovery call.

For any business, small or large, whose needs don't fit a package: a build scoped around exactly what you need, with a written quote after a quick call.

Good fit if a package has too much, too little or the wrong mix for you: one unusual feature, a system to connect, many locations or providers, or a large site to move over.

  • As many pages as your project needs, from a few to dozens
  • Any number of locations or providers, each with a page or profile if you want one
  • Features the packages don't cover, such as memberships, financing or patient-record links, scoped in writing

How is the price set?

Every business needs something a little different, so each quote is written after a quick chat by email or phone. It's based on scope: pages, features, integrations and support. Any price shown on a package is where that package starts.

Can I see a design first?

Yes. When you request a quote, we design a free preview of your new site first, so you see it before you pay anything. There's no obligation to go ahead.

How long does a build take?

Starter sites take about a week and Business sites 1-3 weeks, depending on how quickly we receive your content. Premium timelines are quoted with the scope.

Who owns what?

Your domain name is registered in your name, payments go straight to your own Stripe account, and your booking tool's account is yours. We host, run and update the website itself, so you never deal with servers or software. If you'd ever like to own the website outright, you can buy it from us.

How do I pay?

By card, through Stripe. Packages, care plans and add-ons with a fixed starting price can be ordered straight from their page, on their own or together from your bag; anything scoped to your business is quoted first, and you pay from the secure Stripe link we send with your proposal. You can pay for the build up front or spread it into a monthly plan, and paying for a year at a time lowers the monthly price.
