The promise

$300

Flat fee, one time

That is the price. No add-ons, no surprises, no fine print. If we quoted you $300, you owe $300.

$0

Until you approve

We build a working mockup before you pay a dollar. If you do not love it, you owe nothing. Period.

The site is yours

Domain transferable to your own account any time. Code yours to keep. No platform lock-in. Walk away free.

1:1

Jeremy, directly

Text or email after launch for tweaks. No ticket queue, no offshore call center, no AI chatbot.

Included in $300

Everything you need to go live

  • Domain registration managed by us for the first year — transferable to your own registrar account any time at no charge
  • Custom design matched to your trade and brand — not a template
  • Mobile-first build tuned for speed on bad Maine cell signal
  • Copy + photo selection — we write the words and pick the images
  • SEO foundation — schema.org, sitemap.xml, robots.txt, meta tags
  • Local SEO — per-town landing pages if your service area justifies them
  • Forms wired up — quote requests, contact forms, click-to-call/text
  • Real customer reviews embedded with schema markup
  • Google Analytics 4 connected to your account
  • Live deployment — sub-second loads, HTTPS, modern browsers
  • Ongoing support — text Jeremy directly for tweaks, copy edits, photo swaps
Not included (be honest)

What we don't do

  • Logo design from scratch — bring an existing logo or we use a clean wordmark
  • E-commerce checkout — we can link to Shopify, Square, etc. but the cart itself is not in scope
  • Email hosting — you keep Gmail / Outlook / whatever you use
  • Booking systems — we can embed Calendly, Resnexus, etc. but we don't build the booking backend
  • Multi-language sites — English only at this price
  • Paid ad management — we set up Google Analytics, you run Google Ads (or hire someone else for that)
  • Stock photography licensing — your photos are best; we'll use free royalty-free if you have none
  • Custom illustration / video production — separate scope, separate price

Domain registered, site live on your URL, Jeremy on call for tweaks.

The honest math

Why $300 instead of $2,000?

A Maine agency that charges $2,000-$5,000 for a small-business site is not wrong — they are paying for a sales team, an account manager, a project manager, a designer, a developer, and an office. The customer is paying for that overhead.

mainewebsite.design does not have any of that. Jeremy builds the site himself, deploys it himself, supports it himself. The price reflects what it actually costs to do the work, plus a fair margin. Nothing else.

If you need a 30-page enterprise CMS with custom integrations and a content team, an agency is the right call. If you need a clean, fast, professional site that ranks locally and converts on a phone, $300 is what that actually costs.

Common questions

What about hosting? Domain renewal? Updates?

All of that and more is answered in the full FAQ — including what happens if you sell the business, who owns the code, and what we will and will not do post-launch.
