Pricing

Simple, Predictable Pricing

Plans start at $49/mo — everything included.

Plans start at

$49/mo

Zero upfront cost. Everything included.

Your exact price depends on the size of your site. A small business site with a few pages starts at $49/month. Larger or more complex sites cost more — but you'll always know your price before we start, and it never changes without your say-so.

That's it. One monthly fee. No contracts to decode, no hidden charges, no tiers to compare.

Everything Is Included

Your monthly fee covers the entire operation — not just the website, but everything that keeps it running, secure, and performing:

🌐 Your Website

  • Custom hand-coded website
  • No templates, no WordPress, no builders
  • Mobile-first responsive design
  • Accessibility compliant

🔒 Hosting & Security

  • Fast, reliable hosting
  • SSL certificates
  • Daily backups
  • 24/7 uptime monitoring

✏️ Ongoing Support

  • Unlimited content changes
  • Typically 24-hour turnaround
  • Direct access to me — no ticket queue
  • Domain management

📈 Growth & Performance

  • SEO setup and monitoring
  • Google Analytics & Search Console
  • Performance optimization
  • Monthly reports in plain English

No separate bills for hosting. No extra charge for SSL. No surprise invoice when you need a text update. It's all in the price.

How Pricing Works

Your monthly rate is based on what your site includes — the pages, sections, and features that make up your web presence. Smaller sites cost less, larger sites cost more. Every price is discussed and agreed upon before work begins.

Need to add a page later? We'll agree on the new rate first. Want to remove something? Your price goes down. Your website adapts with your business, and the pricing does too — predictably.

Direct Booking for Short-Term Rentals

Run an Airbnb or VRBO? We build branded direct-booking sites so guests check availability, get a quote, and pay you directly — you keep more of every booking and own the guest relationship instead of renting it from a platform.

Direct Booking

$299/mo

Month-to-month. Zero upfront. No contract.

🏡 Everything in a Dandy Dev site

  • Custom hand-coded, mobile-first design

  • SEO setup and monthly reports

📅 Plus a real booking engine

  • Live availability, quotes, and secure checkout
  • Two-way calendar sync so you never double-book

Unlike our standard plans, Direct Booking is month-to-month with no commitment. See it live on our portfolio — start with Dandy Stays.

The 12-Month Commitment

New website subscriptions come with a 12-month commitment. This protects my investment in building your custom site from scratch at zero upfront cost. After that, it's month-to-month and you can cancel anytime. (Direct-booking sites are month-to-month from day one — see above.)

Read the full cancellation policy — it's straightforward and in plain English.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there really zero upfront cost?

+

Yes. Your first payment isn't due until your site launches. I invest my time upfront, and you start paying when it's live and working for your business.

How do you determine my price?

+

It's based on the size and complexity of your site — how many pages, what kind of content, and whether you need any custom features. We'll talk through your needs and I'll give you an exact monthly number before any work starts.

What does "unlimited changes" mean?

+

All content updates to your existing site are included — text edits, image swaps, menu changes, business info updates, and more. No per-change fees.

Learn exactly what's covered

Can my price change?

+

Only if you add or remove pages/features. Your rate adjusts based on what's on your site, and any changes are discussed and agreed upon first. I don't raise prices arbitrarily.

How does this compare to hiring a traditional developer?

+

Traditional websites cost $3,000–$15,000+ upfront, and then you're on your own for hosting, maintenance, security, and updates — each billed separately. With Dandy Dev, everything is included for one predictable monthly fee.
