Web design

You’ll get a website that does the explaining for you.

We’ll work out what you want your site to do, figure out the best strategy, then design and build the whole thing around that. When people arrive, they’ll already know you’re the one to call. You’ll have a link you’re excited to send.

What actually goes wrong

There’s no neutral setting on a website.

It’s either bringing people in or quietly losing them, and looking professional has nothing to do with which one. Somebody lands, can’t tell in five seconds whether you’re for them, and leaves. Nobody emails to explain why.

The best sites aren’t the prettiest ones. They’re the ones that make the right person think “finally.”
What we build

Three ways in. Same standard, different scope.

The quality doesn’t move, the scope does. We build what the business actually needs, not just what you came in asking for, and sometimes that means talking you out of the bigger package on the call.

New website build

No existing site, or the one you’ve got isn’t worth salvaging. We start with a real conversation about who you’re trying to reach, then build from there. Nothing goes into design until we both know what the site actually needs to do.

  • Discovery and strategy session
  • Custom design, never a template
  • Works on every screen
  • SEO basics built in
  • 30 days of post-launch support

Website redesign

Your site works. It could work a lot harder. We audit what’s actually broken, then rebuild around a clearer strategy without making you start from scratch.

  • Design and content audit
  • Strategic redesign
  • Content restructuring
  • SEO cleanup
  • Speed and performance

Website care plans

Your site is live and you’d rather not think about it again. We handle the updates, backups, and small fixes that pile up, so it keeps working without you having to chase anyone down.

  • Updates, backups, and monitoring
  • Security patching
  • Small content and design fixes
  • Weekly SEO content on the Growth plan
  • A person who answers when something breaks

The receipts

The work speaks for itself. So do they.

We really appreciate Arc & Atlas’ work on the Mind Body Ecology Institute site. I regularly hear from people how much they love its look and accessibility. They did a total rebuild of our site, restyled some of the branding materials, added pages, did SEO work, and more. It has dramatically increased our visibility.

How it works

Getting this off your plate is simpler than you think.

Three steps. No questionnaires, no mystery timelines, no disappearing acts.

  1. 01

    Book a free call.

    30 minutes, and you don’t prepare a thing. We ask about the business before we ask about the website, because the second only makes sense once we know the first.

  2. 02

    We design and build it.

    You see the design before anything gets built, and nothing goes live without your sign-off.

  3. 03

    You launch, and we stick around.

    30 days of support while you settle in, and a care plan after that if you want us on hand.

Who we build for

If the work is already good and the site isn’t, that’s us.

Websites for people who give a damn about how they show up, and who are ready to pay for something built to last. Each of these has its own page, with the proof and the questions that matter in that world.

Who this works for, and who it doesn’t.

Amélie made us write this down. It saves everyone a call.

It’s a fit if

  • The business has real customers and real revenue, and you see the site as an investment rather than a box to check.
  • You have a budget in mind, even a flexible one, and it sits inside the ranges in the FAQ below.
  • You care how you look to the people you serve, not just to yourself.
  • You can give the project feedback, content, and decisions while it’s running. A site nobody answers about stalls.

It’s probably not, if

  • You’re shopping for the cheapest option. We’ll tell you that on the call, and we’ll say it nicely.
  • You want a simple site and no new strategy. That’s a fair thing to want, and an hourly call is the better buy.
  • The business isn’t launched yet. The pre-launch package exists for exactly where you are.

Things people actually ask.

If yours isn’t here, bring it to the call. No such thing as a dumb question before you spend money on a website.

How long does it take?

A full build or redesign usually runs between 2 and 4 weeks from kickoff to launch. The biggest variable is how fast feedback comes back from your side, and we’ll tell you that upfront instead of discovering it together in week three.

Do I need my copy written first?

Not necessarily. We can work with what you have and shape it, and content strategy lives in the studio rather than getting farmed out. The more of it that’s ready at kickoff, the faster this goes.

What platform will it be on?

The one that fits how you’ll actually use it after launch. It matters a lot less than what the site says and how it’s built, and you shouldn’t need a stack explained to you to own your own website.

Do you handle SEO?

The basics are built into everything we make. Deeper work is its own project, and the Growth care plan adds a new search-optimized post every week. Anyone promising you page one by Friday is bullsh*tting you.

What happens after launch?

30 days of support. After that, a care plan from $75 a month if you want us on hand, or just call when something comes up. You own the site either way and we don’t hold the keys.

What does it cost?

Most 5-page sites run $3,500 to $5,500. Most 10 to 20 page sites run $6,500 to $15,000, and redesigns follow the same scale. Page count, how ready your content is, and what the site has to do move the number inside those ranges, not outside them.

If your budget sits well under that, we’re probably not your best fit, and we’d rather say so here than sell you a tier you don’t need. The pre-launch package or an hourly support call might be the better buy.

Is this a good fit if I’m just starting out?

Not for a full build, and we’d rather say that now than take a deposit for a site the business isn’t ready to use. If you haven’t launched yet, the Business Clarity Pre-Launch Package is built for exactly where you are: five guided calls to sort the basics, with part of the fee credited toward a build when you’re ready.

What if I just need something simple or cheap?

Simple, sometimes: an hourly support call can sort a surprising amount in 60 minutes, and we’ll tell you if that’s all you need. Cheap, no. A site that undersells you costs more than the one that doesn’t, you just pay for it in clients you never hear from.

Start with the call. Bring the site you’ve got.

30 minutes, free. We’ll go through what you have and tell you which of the three makes sense, or that none of them do yet. If it’s the last one, you leave with the pre-launch option instead of a proposal, and nobody’s out any money.
