Pay monthly websites, compared.

Instead of $5,000 up front for a site nobody updates, you pay $199 a month and we design it, host it and keep it current. Here's how that stacks up against the other ways to get a website.

Most small businesses don't need a $10,000 website. They need one that's right: today's prices, this week's hours, photos from this year, and showing up when someone nearby searches. That takes looking after, every month. Paying monthly puts the cost where the work actually is.

How the options compare.

Typical costs for a small business site. Agency and freelancer prices vary a lot; these are the usual ranges.

Questions about paying monthly.

Is a pay monthly website cheaper in the long run?
Over three years, Essential comes to about $7,260 including setup, with updates, SEO and support already in that price. A typical agency build is $5,000 to $25,000 up front, plus $150 to $500 a month to host and maintain it.
Do I own my website?
Your content, photos and domain are yours. If you ever leave, you can take your site with you. See how site transfers work.
Is there a contract?
No long-term contract. You can cancel any time; the cancellation policy has the details.
What's the catch with DIY builders like Wix or Squarespace?
There isn't one if you have the time. They cost $16 to $36 a month, but the design, the writing, the SEO and every update after that are yours to do.
How fast can my site launch?
Most sites go live in 5 to 14 days after you approve the design and send your content.
