Contractor Website Design Pricing: $500 Setup + $99/Month Hosting

The 12-month commitment allows us to spread the contractor website design build cost across time while providing ongoing contractor website maintenance. We front-load the heavy lifting (design, development, copywriting) into the $500 setup, then the $99/month contractor website hosting covers maintenance, updates, and support. After 12 months, you own the entire contractor website design codebase and can stay month-to-month (no commitment) or take it elsewhere. This Website-as-a-Service model ensures you get ROI while we handle all technical aspects.

The $500 contractor website design setup includes: discovery workshop to understand your services and goals, 20+ page sitemap planning, custom copywriting tailored to your trade, professional design system with contractor-specific features, Next.js development for fast loading, QA testing across devices, analytics and call tracking setup, launch coordination, and complete documentation. We also prep all contractor website hosting infrastructure so the transition to the $99/month plan is seamless. This contractor website design pricing covers everything needed to launch a professional contractor website.

The $99/month contractor website hosting plan covers managed hosting on Vercel (enterprise-grade infrastructure), SSL certificates for security, daily automated backups, uptime monitoring, security patches, performance optimization, and unlimited minor edits. Minor edits include photo swaps, text updates, new testimonials, service additions, price changes, and content tweaks. You simply email or text what needs changing and we handle it—this contractor website maintenance ensures your site always reflects current services and availability.

Yes. Your contractor website hosting plan includes ongoing tweaks and small additions. Bigger scopes—like new service microsites, advanced quoting tools, or major feature additions—can be scoped separately once you're live. Many contractors start with the standard 20+ page contractor website design, then add industry-specific features or additional location pages as they grow. We'll work with you to determine if additions are covered under contractor website maintenance or require separate scoping.

Absolutely. After 12 months of contractor website hosting, you own the entire contractor website design codebase, copy, images, and assets. We'll package up the Git repository, all files, and documentation. If you want to self-host, switch to another provider, or hire an in-house dev team, we'll help with the handoff. Many contractors choose to continue month-to-month contractor website hosting with us because it includes ongoing contractor website maintenance, but the choice is yours—you own everything.

While DIY builders like Wix or Squarespace charge $20-50/month, they don't include contractor website design, custom copywriting, or contractor website maintenance. Our contractor website design pricing ($500 setup + $99/month) includes professional contractor website design built specifically for contractors, complete copywriting, custom development in Next.js for speed, and ongoing contractor website maintenance. DIY builders require you to build everything yourself, write all content, and handle updates. Our contractor website design service handles everything so you can focus on running your crew.

Yes. Contractor website hosting is fully included in the $99/month plan. This covers managed hosting on Vercel (enterprise-grade infrastructure used by companies like Netflix and GitHub), SSL certificates for security, daily automated backups, uptime monitoring, security patches, and performance optimization. You never pay extra for contractor website hosting—it's all included in the Website-as-a-Service model. The $99/month covers both contractor website hosting and contractor website maintenance.
