Every feature has a value.
Here's what you're getting.
The features on this page add up to $7,000–$19,000+ at market rates. My prices run 50–75% below that — no agency overhead, no account managers, just the work.
Line by line,
no surprises.
The "Value" column is what each feature costs at standard market rates — agencies, boutique studios, senior freelancers. Add them up and you're looking at $7,000–$19,000+ for a full build. My prices run 50–75% below that — scoped to what you actually need, nothing more.

Questions I get
before every project.
Why are your prices lower than agencies?
No account managers, no overhead, no 12-person team charging for internal meetings. You're paying for the work itself. I build the site — that's it. Same craft, fraction of the cost.
Do I pay all at once?
Typically 50% to kick off, 50% on delivery. For larger projects we can structure a milestone-based schedule. No recurring fees after launch.
What if I only need a few of these features?
Good — I scope to what you actually need. The table above shows individual feature values so there are no surprises. A simple homepage + contact page costs far less than a full catalog build.
Who owns the site after it's done?
You do. The code, the domain, the hosting account — all yours. You can take it anywhere, hand it to another developer, or keep it forever. No lock-in, no ransom.
How long does a build take?
Starter sites: 1–2 weeks. Full business sites: 2–4 weeks. Next.js / advanced builds: 3–6 weeks. The main variable is how quickly feedback and assets come back from your side.
Can you match a competitor's quote?
Send it over. If the scope is comparable and the work is real, I'll beat it or match it — and likely deliver faster. The only thing I won't do is cut corners to hit a number.
Ready to scope your build?
Send me what you're thinking — business type, pages you need, any sites you like. I'll come back with a clear number, not a range with fine print.
