I build your new website first. You only pay if you want it

Coharta Web makes one-page websites for local businesses: plumbers, auto shops, salons, cafes, accountants. I build yours from details that are already public, like your services, hours and phone number, and send you a private link.

If you want it, it’s $149, paid once, and it’s live on your own web address within 24 hours of payment. If you don’t, I take it down.

Already have a preview link from me? Reply to that email with questions or changes.

Two sample sites, for businesses that don’t exist

Both businesses are made up, so I could show you real work without using anyone’s actual company. Yours would have your own name, services, hours and phone number. Open one to scroll through the whole page.

What $149 covers

  • A one-page website with your name, services, hours, phone number and address
  • Buttons to call or email you, big enough for a thumb
  • A map link that opens directions to you
  • Made for phones first, and it works on computers too
  • Page title, description and business details set up so Google can read them
  • Connected to your own domain, with the padlock (HTTPS)
  • Hosting for the first 12 months
  • One round of edits, before or after it goes live
  • The files are yours. Ask for them any time

Total, paid once$149

You pay after you’ve seen the finished site and want it. If it isn’t live within 24 hours of payment (once your domain settings are in), you get your money back.

What’s not included

  • More pages. An extra page, like a menu or a full list of services, is $49.
  • Online booking, ordering, payments or a shop
  • A blog, a logo or new photos
  • All-new copy. I tidy up the wording you already use.
  • Ongoing SEO, ads, or any promise about Google rankings
  • Setting up or moving your email
  • Buying or renewing your domain. You keep paying for it where you do now.
  • Edits after the first round. Small changes after that are $25 a batch.

After the first year

Hosting is included for 12 months. After that you choose: $5 a month and I keep it running and make small text changes, or I send you the files for free and you host them anywhere. You’re never locked in.

How it works

  1. I build a preview of your site

    I use what’s already public: your current website and listings like Google or Yelp. There’s no call, no form to fill in, and nothing to pay.

  2. You look at it on your phone

    You get a private link. Tell me what’s wrong, out of date or missing, and I’ll fix it. If it’s not for you, say so and I take it down.

  3. You pay, and it goes live

    Pay $149 by card or PayPal. Then change two settings where your domain is registered (I send the exact steps, about five minutes), or add me as a user there and I’ll do it. Within 24 hours the new site is at your own web address.

Questions

Who are you?

Coharta Web is one person who designs and builds small websites. It isn’t an agency and there’s no sales team. The person who reads your email is the person who builds your site.

Why is it only $149?

It’s one page, and a lot of the work is the same for every site: the layout, the code, the hosting setup. That part is already built, with software I set up for this kind of site, so you’re paying for the part that’s yours: your details, your wording, and getting it live on your domain.

What if I don’t like it?

Then you don’t pay anything, and I take the preview down. If you like most of it, tell me what to change before you decide. One round of edits is included.

Who hosts it?

I do, for the first 12 months, as part of the price. After that it’s $5 a month, or I send you the files for free and you can host them anywhere. Plenty of hosts are free for a one-page site.

What happens to my domain and email?

You keep your domain where it is. I only change the two settings that point your web address to the new site. Your email settings stay exactly as they are, and I never need your password.

How did you get my email address?

It’s listed publicly, on your website or a business listing. I only write to a business after I’ve built a preview for it. If you’d rather not hear from me, reply “no thanks” and I won’t email again.

How do I know this is legit?

Fair question about any email from a stranger. You pay nothing until you’ve seen the actual site and want it. I never ask for passwords. Payment goes through Stripe or PayPal, which have their own buyer protection. The mailing address for Coharta Web is 1311 Park St, Unit #706, Alameda, CA 94501.

What do I need to send you?

Nothing, unless something is wrong. The preview already uses your public details. If your hours, prices or services have changed, just tell me.

Want to see one for your business?

Email hello@coharta.com with your business name and your current website, if you have one. I’ll build a preview and send you the link. Looking costs nothing.
