I’m based in the Wilmington, North Carolina area, but it doesn’t matter where you are because everything can be done remotely. In fact, I enjoy working with people from all kinds of places!

Websites start at $975. Final pricing depends on the package you choose and any optional add-ons.

Websites normally take 2-5 weeks from start to finish. Smaller Basic sites are usually faster, while more complex sites can take longer depending on pages, features, revisions, and how quickly feedback comes in.

No. A deposit is used to reserve the project and begin work, with the remaining balance due before launch. If a project needs a different payment structure, I can talk it through with you before anything starts.

Yes. Once your project is paid for, your website belongs to you. If you choose to host it yourself, I’ll transfer the GitHub repository and Netlify project to your own accounts, giving you full ownership and control. If you host through CS Interactive, I manage the hosting and deployment for you while you retain ownership of your website and its content.

Yes, if your package includes a CMS or you add one to your site. Premium websites include easy website updates with a CMS, and CMS editing can be added to a Basic website. If you would rather not manage updates yourself, I can handle maintenance for you through one of my hosting plans.

SEO setup includes the essentials that help search engines understand the site: page titles and descriptions, clean page structure, mobile-friendly design, image alt text where appropriate, sitemap and robots files, and launch-ready indexing basics. Higher packages include enhanced or advanced SEO setup for more pages and a deeper content structure.

The site is designed around your business, your content, and the features you need. I may use proven layouts, components, and CMS patterns to keep the build efficient, but the final website is not a generic template dropped in with your name on it.

Yes. Maintenance can include content updates, small design changes, CMS help, technical upkeep, and general support after launch. The amount of maintenance depends on how often the site needs attention.

Yes. Existing websites can be redesigned, rebuilt, or refreshed depending on what is working and what needs to change. A redesign can keep useful content while improving the look, structure, mobile experience, SEO foundation, and update workflow.

Start by reaching out through the contact page with a little context about your business, the kind of website you need, and any features you already know you want. From there, I’ll talk through the right package, scope, timeline, and next steps with you.
