How the price stays low

How the first 10 are free

Fixed scope

Every Launch site is a 14-page fullstack site: home, services, service pages, about, contact and the pages a local business needs. We do not quote each project from scratch.

We write the first draft

Most website projects run late waiting for the client's copy. We write every page from a 90-minute intake call, and you edit it.

Fourteen days, start to finish

Design approved on Day 3, a working preview on Day 7, launch on Day 14. A short schedule keeps the hours, and the price, down.

An example of a site we built: Chinook Auto Sales received 260 website enquiries in its first four months, from a site that previously had no enquiry form.
