The web does everything these days. It’s where we work, it’s where we meet new people, it’s where we plan what to do with those people, we buy them gifts there, we get paid there, we get our entertainment media and news there, we educate ourselves there.

Everything Everywhere All At Once

Basically the web does everything, everywhere, all at once.

Well not exactly like the movie, but that’s still a lot. Maybe sometimes, too much. And when you get the bill for it all, you might realize it’s best not to buy something you didn’t need or want in the first place.

So You’re Not Making the Next Killer App

Most small to mid-sized businesses and organizations aren’t making the next Instagram or TikTok. In fact I’d dare say all of you are looking for something else that isn’t that scale. You may want a website for your organization to gain respect in your community and encourage volunteer participation. You may have a business that needs a sleek website that looks great and loads faster on all devices. You may have a related side project that you want to advertise on your personal domain. Those are all very valuable projects for your work, but none reach the complexity of a web app like Facebook or TikTok.

Sticker Shock

At a recent high school reunion I spoke with friends who asked about what I did and followed that with questions about web design. They had mentioned an entrepreneurial project and the desire to have a website for it. They casually inquired about pricing and I mentioned that most websites start at around $7,000 for anything you’d actually want the finished product of.

Yikes! If this is your first time seeing that in writing or hearing a quote welcome to the sticker shock club. But this is a decent competitive starting price for a very simple website. There’s just too much complexity for most these days that keeps their costs raising up. If you are a startup, a non-profit organization, or a small business you ma have that need with nothing near that budget.

What if I Told You There’s Another Way?

Website development done simpler and affordable is possible.

Let’s face it: most people only need or want static web sites with a design that supports their marketing profile to communicate important information online. And you don’t need a fancy Content Management System (CMS) or dynamic web app (ie: facebook.com) to do that. But you do want your site to load fast and put your best impression online.

What if I also told you we can help you with a great looking lightning fast website that’s also around a third of the cost of the lowest quote you’ll get from anyone else?

But…How?

We won’t get into all the nitty-gritty here, so here’s the overview:

  • Cut out all that stuff you don’t need anyways
  • Using Hugo SSG for themes and templates to quickly generate simpler and elegant sites
  • Automating deployment of content directly from the developers’ machine to the live web
  • Don’t worry about complex database management, fewer footholds for hackers to get in
