Every storefront along this street represents the kind of local business I build for — clean, fast websites designed around what each shop actually needs.

Before & After: Iron & Fade Barber

Same shop, twenty years apart. Drag the handle to see what a dated site says about a business, and what a modern one says instead.

Modern Iron & Fade Barber website: bold dark design with a large headline and booking button
Dated 2004-style Iron & Fade website: tiled background, rainbow title, scrolling banner, and a visitor counter
Why this matters:

When someone in town visits your website on their phone, they decide within seconds whether to stay. A cluttered site loses visitors before they ever reach out. A clean design makes contacting you simple.

How We Work Together

No sales pitches, no long meetings, and no surprise invoices. Just honest craftsmanship.

01 Step One

Request your free preview.

Tell me your business name and trade. I look up your business online and build a private preview from your existing photos and info. You don't pay anything upfront and you sign no contracts.

02 Step Two

Review it and choose a plan.

I text you a private preview link to test on your own phone. We refine the wording and photos to match your business, and you choose the payment plan that matches your cash flow.

03 Step Three

Approve and launch.

Once you give the green light, we connect your domain and launch. After launch, I take care of hosting, security, and up to 2 small text/photo edits each month.

Local Craftsmanship · St. Augustine, FL

About the Builder

I'm Matt, an 18-year-old web builder living right here in St. Augustine. After training in software development and interface design in a tech academy, I noticed how many hardworking local trades, cafés, and family-owned storefronts in town were stuck with outdated sites or paying marketing agencies thousands upfront for clunky templates.

I design and build every site myself — clean code that loads easily on any phone. Because I'm local, I build your free preview first so you can inspect the quality before spending a dollar. If it's a fit, I launch it and handle hosting, security, and small monthly edits so you can stay focused on your customers.

Founding client pricing: The first 5 businesses lock this rate for life as long as your plan stays active. No surprise invoices.

Pricing & Contract Details

Every plan includes a custom website up to 5 pages (typically Home, Services, About, Gallery/Work, and Contact) plus an integrated contact form. Third-party booking systems, e-commerce stores, and complex API integrations are quoted separately.
Each plan includes up to 2 small text or photo edits per month (such as updating hours, swapping a photo, changing service pricing, or updating staff). Substantial layout redesigns or new page additions are quoted upfront.
Your custom domain is always registered directly in your business's name so you retain total ownership. The annual domain registration cost (~$15/year) is paid directly by you to the domain registrar (e.g., Cloudflare Registrar, Namecheap, or Porkbun).
You own 100% of your business name, logo, photography, copy, and brand assets. After completing your plan's initial commitment term, you have the option to buy out the finished site files for a one-time $300 fee and host them anywhere you choose.
After your minimum commitment is satisfied, your plan simply continues month-to-month at the exact same monthly rate. You can cancel hosting and maintenance anytime with 30 days' written notice.
Your first monthly payment is due at official launch, once you have reviewed and approved your finished site. You do not pay anything while the free preview is being built.
The founding client rate is locked for life as long as your plan remains active. Even as regular agency rates increase later, your monthly rate never goes up.
