Clear scope, clear price

The tier figures are starting points for the shape of work each one describes. Once we have your scope in writing you get a fixed quote against it, and that quote does not move unless the scope does in which case you approve the change before any work happens.

Roughly: what the site or application has to do, who it is for, whether content exists, and any system it has to talk to. A single conversation is usually enough. If we cannot quote responsibly from that, we will say what is missing rather than pad the number to cover the unknown.

Yes. Fixed-scope projects are normally split across kickoff, an agreed midpoint and launch, so payment tracks delivered work. Retainers are billed monthly in advance.

Third-party costs are yours and are billed to your own accounts, not through us: domain registration, cloud hosting, a CMS subscription, paid fonts or stock imagery. We tell you what they will come to before you commit, and they are typically small this site's own hosting is inside a free tier.

Then you are quoted less. The tiers describe common shapes of work, not a floor we hold you to, and we would rather scope a project honestly than sell you a size you do not need.

Often. That is usually a retainer rather than a fixed-scope build, because the work is continuous and the priorities are yours. We can take the frontend, the infrastructure, or both.
