QuestionsThe ones people ask me most.
01What do I get with the free website?

With 2 or more years of hosting, new or renewal, you get a new website or a redesign of the one you have, free. That's a $500 value.

Want Backstage too? Backstage is normally $1,500, website included. With 2 or more years of hosting, it's $500. Your total is $860 with 2 years of hosting, or $1,000 with 3.

  • A clean, modern site built for your business
  • Content organized for your customers
  • Your forms and email hooked up
  • Fast, and made for phones first

It's a clean, professional build, not an open-ended design project. The offer runs through December 15, 2026.

02How does it work, from first text to launch?
  1. Text me what you want. Or message me on Facebook, or email. Tell me a bit about your business and your site.
  2. I take a look. If you have a site, I'll check it out and tell you honestly what makes sense.
  3. I build it, based on your direction and your content.
  4. I send your Backstage Pass, the link to your new dashboard. From then on, you update your site from your phone.
03What's a Backstage Pass?

It's the link I send you to your new dashboard. Save it to your home screen and it opens like an app. One login, yours.

04My site works. Why would I rebuild it?

Most sites don't fail suddenly. They slowly get harder to update, slower to load, and more fragile over time. At some point, patching stops making sense.

Rebuilding often costs less time and money than endlessly patching what's already tangled. And with 2+ years of hosting, the rebuild is free.

05What does hosting cover, and what costs extra?

Covered: the server, security certificate, backups, security checks, updates, problems fixed for you, Backstage itself, and me on the other end of a text.

Extra: bigger changes, like new pages or changing how something works. That's $1 a minute with a $20 minimum, and I'll give you a time estimate before I start.

Most sites are fine on regular hosting. Premium hosting is available for bigger or busier sites, at additional cost.

06Can you do my domain and email?

Yes. Every kind of domain, from .com to .buzz. I'm a full-service registrar: registration, renewals, domain email, SSL, DNS and transfers. I handle everything. I'm a GoDaddy reseller, so if GoDaddy sells it, I sell it too. Ask me for pricing.

07What if I need something Backstage doesn't do?

Start with Backstage. If your business needs more, like online registration, waivers, rosters or a booking system, I can build more. Bigger systems are quoted up front, before I start.

08How fast do you answer?

Usually the same day. Most requests are done in a day or two. If it's urgent, text me.

09What if I'm not sure what I need?

That's fine, most people aren't. I'll look at your current site for free and tell you honestly what makes sense, even if that's not working with me.
