A real website for your business, live by tomorrow.

Your website is already built. Here’s how to put it live.

You’re probably here because you saw the preview we built for your business and clicked “I’m in.” Below is everything you need to know to put it live: how the offer works, what happens with your domain, what to expect after you pay, and a few words from clients we’ve done this for before.

(If you got here some other way, hi. We’re Mai and Javier, a boutique design studio that’s been at it for 15 years. Sometimes we build finished previews for businesses we’d love to work with. Maybe we’ll build you one.)

What you’re getting

A place online that’s actually yours

A real website for your business. The kind of place you can send a customer to from a business card, a Google search, an Instagram bio. From anywhere. With your own name, your own address, and your own work in it. A place online that’s actually yours.

Most small businesses spend years building presence on platforms they don’t own. The algorithm changes. The followers stop seeing your posts. A website sidesteps all of that. It’s the one place that keeps working for you while everything else churns underneath it. And the one we built for your business is already done.

What’s the deal

  • You pay

    $497 once

    That’s the one-time setup fee. We finalize anything you’d like changed, register your domain (if you don’t already own one), point everything where it needs to go, and put your site live.

  • Then

    $9.99 a month

    Hosting, SSL, backups, and small updates any time you need them. Want to change a phone number? Add a new service? Update your hours for the holidays? Email us. We handle it. No tickets, no portals.

  • And it's

    Live in 24hs

    We usually have your site up and ready to be shared within 24 hours of payment. Sometimes faster.

There are no setup fees beyond the setup fee.
There’s no annual contract.
You can cancel hosting any time.

About the domain

If you don’t already own a web address (something like yourbusiness.com), we’ll register one for you and the cost is included in the $497. You don’t have to figure out which registrar to use, what records to set, or what “DNS” means. We handle it.

If you already own one, even better. Tell us what it is and we’ll set everything up so it points to your new site.

A note on reassurance

Most services ask you to pay before you see what you’re getting. We did the opposite on purpose.

You’ve already seen the site. You know exactly what you’re paying for, because you’re paying for exactly what you saw.

If there’s something in there you’d like fixed before it ships (add a photo, correct a wrong detail, add more socials, a service we didn’t include, anything), just tell us when you reply or in the form after payment, and we’ll handle it before it goes live.

I’m in.

Ok, but…

Why have a
website at all?

A website is your own place online. Your own address, your own voice, your own work, on a piece of land that’s actually yours. Customers can find you when they search your name. The site is still there in five years.

Nothing about it depends on an algorithm changing or a platform staying alive.

Most small businesses live almost entirely on social media. We’ve watched what happens when that’s their only presence. They lose the customer who searched and didn’t find them. They lose the authority that comes with showing up like a real, established business. And they keep paying for it in customers who never make it past the first impression.

This site is built already. Putting it live takes one click. After that, the next time someone asks if you have a website, you can finally say yes.

    "Thanks again for all the excellent work here, and the time and creativity it represents. We could not be happier with the outcome. I hope LOTS of other lucky souls get to have their websites made by you!"

    “My goal for starting a website was to have a membership site for artists. But, I knew I needed help so I booked a couple of Power days and Mai and Javier took care of everything. They let me know well in advance the information they needed from me, were in constant communication during the days and even made videos for me to reference in case I needed a reminder. Not only that, but the support afterward to help me get my membership launched has been outstanding. I would not hesitate to recommend the Power days to anyone who needs help with their site. Javier and Mai are professional, smart and caring. They care about the work they do! They have made my dream a reality!”

    “Working 1:1 with By Artisan is like having your personal website development and design agency — for a day, two days or as long as you need it, when you need it. With Mai and Javier at your side you can tackle projects that are way beyond your personal skill set, yet much needed for the modern day entrepreneur. Plus you know everything is not just done right, but with the utmost attention to detail.”

    “I want to express that I really liked what you did. You paid attention to the little details, including aspects that I hadn’t even considered. This truly made me very happy, so thank you very much! It’s a pleasure to work with someone who knows how to listen and create beautiful, well-made things.”

Hi! We’re Mai & Javier 👋

We started this studio because we love watching small businesses get the kind of website that makes their work look as good as it actually is.

If you have any hesitation about moving forward, please email us first. We’d rather have a ten-minute conversation with you than have you wonder, and we’ll love meeting you.

If you’re ready, we’ll see you on the other side.

I’m still in.

A few common questions

You might be wondering…

What if I want changes after it goes live?
Email us. Small changes (text edits, a new photo, updated hours, swapping a service) are part of the $9.99/month. Bigger projects we’ll quote separately and you’ll always know the price before any work happens.

Do I own the site?
Yes. The code, the design, the copy, the domain (if we registered it for you), all yours. If you ever decide to take it elsewhere, we’ll hand everything over with no fuss.

Can I cancel hosting?
Yes, any time. Email us. We’ll take it offline. No questions, no cancellation fees.

Who’s actually doing the work?
Mai and Javier. We’re the studio. We’ve been doing this for 15 years. There’s no agency layer, no contractor chain. You email us, you get us.

What’s the $9.99/month actually for?
Hosting (the server your site lives on), SSL (the little padlock in the browser), automatic backups, security updates, and small content edits whenever you need them. Basically, everything that keeps the site online and current without you having to think about it.

What if you go out of business?
Unlikely (15 years and counting), but if anything ever changed on our end you’d get plenty of notice and help migrating. Your domain is yours. Your site is yours. You’re never stuck with us.

Still have questions?
No problem. Email us at hello@studiobyartisan.com. Mai or Javier will get back to you, usually within a few hours.
