In every build, at no extra cost

The Foundation

Most cheap websites are a homepage, an about page and a contact form that quietly drops half its messages. This is the floor instead. The things that decide whether a business gets found and gets called. It is the same work every time, so it costs you nothing extra to ask for.

  • Responsive design
  • Hero section
  • About section
  • Services, each on its own page
  • Your hours
  • Photo & video gallery
  • Testimonials
  • Google reviews
  • Sermon library
  • FAQ
  • Map & directions
  • Contact form that actually works
  • Tap to call, text or get directions
  • SEO setup
  • Found in local search
  • Looks right when shared
  • Fast on a phone
  • Accessible by default
  • Privacy policy, and a cookie notice when the site needs one
  • Your admin
  • The finishing touches
  • A walkthrough at handover
  • Backups, tested by a real restore before launch
  • Every old address redirected, when it replaces your old site

Hours, map and local search are included where you have a place people visit, Google reviews where you have a Google Business Profile, and sermons where you have them to post. Service pages count toward the pages in your build.

A website

For a business, church or organization that needs to be found, trusted and contacted.

Sermons, events and posts you add yourself never count toward your pages.

Build times count from the first payment, once your words and pictures are in.

Website Foundation

$300

Choose this if people need to find you, trust you and call you. Right now they can't.

Up to five pages, and your privacy policy, thank you page and 404 do not count toward that.

A complete site, not a placeholder. Home, about, and a page for each service you sell, within the five. Your hours, your photos, your testimonials, your Google reviews, and an FAQ. Your sermons, when you have them, posted by you as often as you like. Map and directions, and a contact form that reaches you and replies to them.

Set up so Google can list you in its local map results. Your colors, your photos, your words, laid out to fit what you do. And you change any of it yourself from your own admin. Text, photos, prices, hours, without calling anyone.

Why only $300? Because the engine is already built. You are on it right now: this site runs on the same one. What you pay for is fitting it to your business, not inventing it from scratch. The price is low because the work is practiced, not because it is thin.

  • Built in 1 to 2 weeks
  • 1 round of changes before launch

Website Next Level

$600

Choose this if the site has to do something, not just say something.

Up to ten pages.

The whole Foundation, on a build about twice the size. This is where the site starts working for you instead of sitting there.

People book an appointment at eleven at night instead of leaving a voicemail you lose. Your events and offers go up without you calling anyone. A signup form that turns visitors into a mailing list you own.

Why $600? A page only has to be right once. These have to keep being right. A booking has to survive somebody canceling at midnight, and an event has to come off the page by itself once it is over. It is twice the price because it is about twice the work, and the extra sits in the awkward cases, found and tested here so you are not the one finding them later.

  • Built in 2 to 3 weeks
  • 2 rounds of changes before launch
  • Sermons and newsletters you upload as PDFs, turned into pages Google can read

Website Cornerstone

$1,000

Choose this if people will log in to it, or it will hold their details.

Up to twenty pages.

The whole Foundation and everything in Next Level, on the largest of the three builds. A site people can safely be asked to trust. A members area only the right people can reach. A place for them to send you documents that isn't an email attachment. Intake forms whose answers stay private instead of sitting in a shared inbox. Schedules and sign up sheets people manage themselves. And the site talking to the systems you already run, so nobody types the same thing twice.

Why $1,000? The big pieces at this level are the expensive ones to build. A members area means real accounts: people signing up, forgetting passwords, and getting shut off the day they leave. And connecting to a system you already use means keeping it working when that system changes. Either of those can be more work than the whole Foundation.

  • Built in 3 to 4 weeks
  • 3 rounds of changes before launch
  • Books for your treasurer: money in and out, receipts snapped on a phone, and the whole year in one download for whoever does your taxes
  • Selling online? Ordering and card payments are included

A web app

Sign-in, records, and work that has outgrown a spreadsheet. Runs in a browser, on any device.

Logins, plainly: a website with a private members page is Website Cornerstone. A tool people work in every day (records, schedules, approvals) is a web app.

Build times count from the first payment, once your current records and details are in.

Web App Foundation

$400

Choose this if you are running something important on a spreadsheet and it has started to hurt.

A private tool your team signs into, on a phone or a laptop. Somewhere to keep what you actually track: jobs, members, clients, stock, sign ups. Add a record, find it in seconds, attach a photo or a document. Get an email when something needs you.

One version of the truth, instead of four copies of a spreadsheet with different numbers in them.

Why $400? A website gets looked at. This gets used, every day, by people typing real information into it. So it has to keep that information safe, stop two people from saving over each other, and still work on a phone with one bar of signal. It also needs proper logins from the first day, which a plain website never does.

  • Built in 2 to 3 weeks

Web App Next Level

$700

Choose this if the tool has to run a process, not just hold a list.

Bring in the spreadsheet you already have, so you start with your real data instead of an empty screen. Put people into teams, so everyone sees their own work and not everyone else's. Put jobs, shifts or appointments on a schedule people can check from a phone. Send things for approval, and know what is waiting on who. One screen that tells you where everything stands, without asking everyone.

Why $700? Bringing in what you already have is the part people underestimate. Real spreadsheets are messy, the same customer spelled three ways and dates in two formats, and all of that has to be straightened out before the tool is worth trusting. A dashboard is only worth having if the numbers on it hold up. And anything that gets sent for approval has to know who is allowed to approve it. That is where the extra over the Foundation goes.

  • Built in 3 to 4 weeks

Web App Cornerstone

$1,200

Choose this if more than one kind of person uses it, and they should not all see the same thing.

Everything in Next Level, and: Different roles, so a helper sees what they need and not your books. A record of who changed what and when, for the times you have to prove it. Talking to the other systems you already run, so nothing gets typed twice. Still working when the signal drops, and catching up when it comes back.

Why $1,200? Permissions are the piece that has to be right. Every screen and every button has to know who is looking at it, and getting that wrong one time means somebody sees the payroll, or somebody else's records. And connecting to another company's system means keeping it working when they change it without telling you. Those two are the most expensive things on this page to build.

  • Built in 4 to 6 weeks
  • Books for your treasurer: money in and out, receipts snapped on a phone, and the whole year in one download for whoever does your taxes

Hosting and upkeep

What it takes to keep a site running, secure and looked after once it is live.

From $15 a month

Choose this if you want the site looked after rather than left alone.

Fast hosting, your security certificate kept valid, backups taken and kept, and something watching to tell me if the site goes down. Security updates applied as they come, so the site does not quietly rot the way most small business sites do after about year two.

  • Once a quarter, a content check with you: hours, people, prices and events confirmed or updated, and a short note of what changed

Extras, at any level

Taking payments

$100

Deposits, giving, invoices, or dues and subscriptions that run on their own, added to any build for one flat price. Giving connects to the giving service you already use, where you have one.

What these prices assume

These are starting points, not walls. If what you need sits between two rungs, or the number does not fit the budget you actually have, say so. It is better to shape the work to fit what you can spend than to lose the project over it. Nothing here is take it or leave it.

One build, one price. The number is the build. If what you need turns out to be larger than the rung you picked, you hear that before any work starts, not in an invoice afterwards.

You supply the words and pictures. Or I can write and source them for a fee agreed up front.

Hosting and upkeep are separate. Billed monthly, and optional. Without a plan, your quote adds a one-time handover fee, and the domain leaves with you.

Not sure which rung? Say what you are trying to do and you will get an honest answer, including “you do not need me for that” where it is true.

Tell me what you need

Say roughly what you are after and you will get a reply within one business day. Picking a package above is optional, and it just saves us both a round of questions.

How a project runs, step by step

Why FaithBuilt

A tight budget should not mean an outdated website. Every decision here is made with that in mind.

  • Flat, transparent pricing

    One agreed price before any work starts, and no line item you did not ask for. If something turns out cheaper than quoted, you pay the cheaper number.

  • One client at a time

    Your project gets full attention from start to finish rather than a slice of someone's week. It means the calendar is limited, and it means your build does not sit waiting.

  • Not abandoned at handoff

    Every word is editable from a simple admin screen, so your own team can keep it current. And support stays available afterward, so the site does not quietly go stale the way most do.

In their words

What clients say

  • Jacob built a website for my artisan shop and it’s incredible. He guided the whole process, taking all my requirements and input and developing exactly what I needed. I was blown away with the end results and would recommend his services to anyone needing a website. He genuinely cares about his client and meeting their needs opposed to only seeking to make a profit. He takes time and care with what he’s building, keeping the client included in the process the whole time.

Questions

Before you ask

The things people usually want to know. If yours is not here, just ask. It is a short conversation, not a sales call.

  • How much does a website cost?

    A website is $300, $600 or $1,000, and a web app $400, $700 or $1,200, depending on its size and what it has to do. Hosting and upkeep start at $15 a month. Those prices assume the optional hosting plan; without one, the build costs more up front. The full list is on the pricing page, and the Foundation comes with every build.

    Pricing is flat and agreed before any work starts, so there is no meter running and no invoice that surprises you. If you are not sure which fits, ask and we will work it out together.

  • How long does it take?

    A Website Foundation takes 1 to 2 weeks, Next Level 2 to 3 weeks and Cornerstone 3 to 4 weeks, counted from the first payment once your words and pictures are in.

    One client at a time, start to finish. That means your project gets full attention rather than a slice of someone's week, and it means the calendar is limited, so when yours can start depends on what is ahead of you.

    For a start date, or for how long a web app will take, ask, and you will get a real date rather than an optimistic one.

  • Do I own the website when it is finished?

    That depends on which route you choose, and it is worth deciding early because it changes the price.

    With a monthly care plan, the build costs less upfront. I host the site, hold the domain, and keep everything maintained, updated, and backed up, so there is nothing technical for you to manage. Plainly: the site runs while the plan runs. Stop the plan and the site comes down.

    Without a plan, the build costs more upfront and the domain transfers to you. You can take it wherever you like, and hosting and updates become yours to arrange.

    The code I write stays with me either way. That is deliberate: it is what keeps the build affordable and the maintenance included, rather than you paying to own a codebase you would then have to find someone else to look after.

    Your content is always yours, whichever route you take: the words, the photos, the sermons. Tell me which suits you and I will quote it that way.

  • Can our team update it ourselves?

    That is the point. Every word on the page, along with sermons, events, and photos, is editable from a simple admin screen: no code, no developer, no waiting.

    You get a walkthrough at handoff so your team has actually done it once before they need to.

  • What happens after the site launches?

    You are not handed a finished site and left with it. Support stays available, and there is an optional hosting and maintenance plan if you would rather not think about updates and backups at all.

  • We are not a church. Will you still work with us?

    Yes. Churches and ministries are the focus, and Christian-owned businesses are just as welcome, as is anyone who comes by referral.

    Anyone is welcome to get in touch. As a Christian-owned business, I reserve the right to decline work that conflicts with the values I operate by.

  • Is this a template or a website builder?

    No. Each site is fitted to how you work, on an engine that is already built, which is why the price stays low. You still change any text, photo, price or hours yourself from your own admin, without calling anyone.

  • Will you move the content from our old website?

    Yes. Moving your text and photos over from the old site is included in the build. Every old address is also redirected to its new page, so links to the old site keep working and search engines know where each page went.

  • Can people give online through the site?

    Yes. Taking payments online, giving included, is an extra you can add at any level, for $100. Where you already use a giving service, the site connects to it rather than replacing it.

  • Will people find us on Google?

    Every build is set up so search engines can read it properly: page titles and descriptions, clean addresses, a sitemap, the structured data Google uses to understand a business, and a site that works properly on a phone.

    Nobody can promise a position in Google, so I do not.

Tell me what you have in mind. You will get honest advice either way, whether or not it ends in a project.
