What you get

Everything you need, all in one place.

Most agencies hand you a website and walk away. We build it, manage it, and keep it working for you: fresh content, unlimited updates, and leads landing straight in your inbox, long after launch.

Leads straight to you

Every enquiry from your site lands in your inbox or CRM the moment it comes in. No logging in, no checking dashboards. The leads just show up where you work.

Loads in under 2 seconds

Built on Next.js, on Vercel's edge. Half your competitors take 5+ seconds. You won't.

Mobile-first by default

~70% of your traffic is on a phone. Big tap targets, click-to-call, no pinching.

SEO baked in from day one

Schema, semantic HTML, sitemaps, the works. Ranks from launch, not month six.

Engineered to convert

Every form, button, and headline turns visitors into customers. Not pretty. Profitable.

You own everything

Code, content, hosting, and a CMS your team can use. 100% yours. No lock-in, walk away anytime.

The full package

Everything that comes with your site.

Not just a website. Everything your business needs to get found, get leads, and stay current. We handle all of it for you.

Hosting & reliability
  • Lightning-fast hosting. Loads in under a second. 99.99% uptime, every month.
  • We handle the renewals. Domain, security certificate, all the technical stuff, with no surprise expiry emails.
  • Security & backups, handled. Patched against new threats; backups verified before you ever need them.
  • Speed & uptime monitoring. If your site slows or a link breaks, we know first, not your customers.
Leads & email
  • Every lead lands in your inbox. Real customers go straight to you; bots and spam filtered out.
  • Your emails actually land. We set up and monitor what keeps your email out of the spam folder.
  • Run real email campaigns. Seasonal promos, follow-ups, reminders, with no separate Mailchimp bill.
  • We test your contact form monthly. The worst time to find it's broken is when a customer tells you.
Get found on Google
  • Your Google listing, kept active. Active listings rank higher, and most competitors don't bother.
  • New pages when you need them. Up to two new service or service area pages a quarter, so the site grows with the business.
  • Show up where people search. Google, Maps, and the new AI search tools. We keep you in the results.
  • Simple monthly report. What's working and what's growing, in your inbox, in plain English.
Content & conversions
  • New landing pages as you grow. Service areas, seasonal campaigns, new offerings.
  • Page tune-ups every month. Headlines, layouts, and CTAs adjusted based on what's converting.
  • An editor you can't break. Update services, photos, and content yourself, with no code and no calling us.
  • You own everything. Domain, code, content, accounts. No lock-in, walk away anytime.

Versus the alternatives

What you get with Plain Talk vs the others.

Why work with a small studio instead of a big agency or a template builder. The honest breakdown.

Plain TalkA small studio
  • ✓One fixed quote, paid upfront. No retainers, no surprise invoices.
  • ✓One developer, start to finish. You always know who you're talking to.
  • ✓4 to 6 weeks, predictable. A real timeline before you commit.
  • ✓You own everything: code, content, hosting. Zero lock-in.
  • ✓95+ PageSpeed on every build. SEO baked in from day one.
  • ✓We keep it current after launch. Routine updates are included and uncapped, so the site never goes stale.
  • ✓Direct, weekly communication. No project managers in the way.
The othersAgency / template
  • ×Monthly retainers and fees that show up after you've signed.
  • ×An account manager out front, an offshore team you never meet.
  • ×3 to 6 months, and the date keeps slipping.
  • ×Locked into their platform. Leave and you lose the site.
  • ×40–60 PageSpeed if you're lucky. SEO sold as an add-on.
  • ×A static site that sits there. Want fresh content? That's a new invoice.
  • ×Every question routed through three layers of management.
Questions

What clients ask first.

How much does a website cost?

Every business is different, so we give you one fixed quote, tailored to exactly what you need, plus a simple low monthly cost to manage, host, and keep it updated. No retainers, no surprise fees. Tell us what you're after and we'll send a real number within 24 hours.

How long does it take?

Typical turnaround is 4 to 6 weeks from kickoff to launch. Simpler builds ship in 2 weeks. Larger or more complex projects take 6 to 8. We give you a real timeline before you commit anything.

What's included after you build it?

We manage everything for one low monthly cost: hosting, security, and unlimited updates to keep you showing up on Google. Your leads come straight to your inbox or CRM. If something needs changing, you just tell us, with no logging in and no extra invoices. You focus on your business; we keep the site working.

What if I have a website but want it rebuilt?

That's most of what we do. We map every existing URL to its new equivalent with 301 redirects, preserve your content, and re-submit your sitemap. Most clients see rankings improve within 30 days because the new site is faster and better optimized.

Do you do e-commerce?

Yes. We build custom stores on modern stacks (Shopify, Sanity Commerce, or fully custom with Stripe). Better performance and SEO than out-of-the-box themes, and you own everything.

Do I need to provide content and photos?

We can work with what you have. If you have copy and photos, we use them. If you don't, we write copy from a 30-minute interview with you and source professional stock photography. No extra charge.

What if I'm just exploring?

Totally fine. Submit the form anyway and tell us what you're thinking. We'll give you an honest read on whether we're a fit, what a project would look like, and what it'd cost. No sales pitch. No follow-up sequences. Real answer, then it's your call.
