Let's make yourbusiness takeflight
Custom made websites for South African businesses who are good at what they do and have little or nothing online that shows it.
How do you present yourself online?
I know countless South African businesses that have excellent delivery in service or product, yet you cannot find them anywhere online. And I know others where being found is worse than not being found, because what you find looks so tired you would rather move on.
A website is more than purely an online presence. It's a psychological handshake.
With a balance of entrepreneurial strategy and business psychology, I can help you position your business so that the first digital impression perfectly matches the real world quality of your work.
Once you have tasted flight,you will forever walk the earthwith your eyes turned skyward.
Are you ready to fly?
Every site starts at
R3 500
One complete page, built from scratch. Pages after that are R1 900 each, dropping to R1 500 from the sixth. That is the whole pricing model.
R11 100
A consultancy or trades business
Five pages. Home, about, services and two more.
R12 600
A guesthouse
Six pages, with a gallery built to carry photographs.
R27 600
A school
Fifteen webpages with a news section parents can follow.
Most businesses land on five pages. After launch there is a monthly Flight Plan from R200 that keeps the site hosted, patched, backed up and watched, worked out from the size of the site rather than picked off a tier list. A 30% deposit is due before work starts, then the balance can be split over 3, 6, 9 or 12 months rather than paid upfront. Agreed in the proposal, so ask when you enquire.
How long does this take?
One page is usually two to three weeks. A five page website is four to six. The clock is set by how fast content comes back from you, not by how fast I type, so the honest answer is that you control most of it.
Do I have to supply all the photos?
No. If you have good photos we use them. If you do not, I will say so plainly rather than build around bad ones, and photography can be added to the build from R600. I also shoot on its own, without a website attached, if that is all you need.
Can I update prices and content myself later?
Yes. You get an editor for the parts that change, and a walkthrough of how to use it. Small text changes you would rather hand over are free on the Flight Plan anyway. Send the wording and it gets changed.
What if I already have a website?
It can be moved across rather than thrown away. Content, pages and your website assets get carried over rather than started from zero.
Preflight checks
The idea of taking flight should be exciting and not nerve wracking. Here is the exact process we follow to get you off the ground smoothly.
- 01
Flight Briefing
Let's get to know each other. Good business is built on getting to know each other and that sets the tone for the value we are about to create. Once that foundation is there, we dig into the mechanics. What you offer, who your customers are and what someone needs to understand about you on their first impression.
- 02
Fueling up
A beautiful layout means nothing if it doesn't sound like you. This is the part most people underestimate and struggle with, but it is what makes or breaks the job. Together, we gather the substance. The words, the photos, the story of what you do. I'll help you shape the message so that your website speaks to your audience aesthetically and purposefully.
- 03
Instruments and comms
This is where we make sure you are on the radar. I set up the technical infrastructure your business needs to be found. Core SEO, Google Analytics, AI ready structured data and local search optimization. We make sure the backend is flawless, so when bots crawl your site and people fill out your forms, everything works exactly the way it should.
- 04
Flaps and brakes
I build it, then I try to break it. I optimize the performance so the site runs perfectly whether your client is sitting at a desktop or scrolling on their phone. Every form gets submitted, every link tested. I would far rather find a problem on my machine than have you hear about it from a customer.
- 05
Cleared for takeoff
We run the final checks together. We both confirm we are completely satisfied, and only when you give the word do we commit the DNS changes to make your website live. After launch, I do continuous monitoring, making sure the site is backed up and maintained.
Know a causeworth backing?
Every so often, I discount a build for a cause aligned with the United Nations Sustainability Goals. Because of unavoidable infrastructure costs, it isn't completely free, but it goes out at a fraction of the price to support work with real, measurable impact. If you are part of it, or just know about it, pitch it to me.
