Do I own the site after?

Yes. After the flat fee is paid, the site, the domain, and the code are yours. If you ever want to take it to another developer, you can.

What if I already have a domain?

No problem. We can use your existing domain. If you don't have one, we'll register it for you (cost passed through, usually $12–20/yr).

What about hosting after year 1?

$25/mo gets you hosting + small edits (changing a phone number, swapping a photo, etc.). Or you can self-host on Cloudflare Pages or GitHub Pages for free. We'll show you how.

Can you redo my existing site?

Yes. Most of our work is replacing 10-year-old WordPress sites that nobody can edit. Send us your current site URL with the quote request and we'll quote a redesign.

Do you do e-commerce / online stores?

Not yet. We focus on local service businesses where the website's job is to make the phone ring. If you need to sell products online, Shopify or Squarespace will serve you better.

What if I don't like the result?

You only paid 50% upfront. If you genuinely hate it, you walk away. You don't pay the second half. I keep the deposit for the work done. This has not happened yet, but the option is there.

Are you using AI to build these?

Sort of. I use modern AI tools to write code faster, the same way most developers do in 2026. But every site is reviewed, customized, and finished by hand. The end result is a real, hand-tuned site, not a template that AI spat out.

Three of us across three metros: Appleton, WI (Fox Valley region — Appleton, Green Bay, Oshkosh, Sheboygan), San Jose, CA (San Francisco Bay Area), and Las Vegas, NV (Henderson, Summerlin, the broader valley). If you're somewhere else and like the look of this site, reach out anyway. We work remotely.

Honest comparison

ProLocalBuilder vs Wix

Both options work for some businesses. This page is the honest breakdown of where Wix wins and where it doesn't.

Wix

$216–$564/yr

monthly forever

ProLocalBuilder

$895 once, no monthly

you own it

Where Wix is good

Drag-and-drop editor anyone can use
Lots of templates to start from
Hosting included

Where Wix hurts

Site speed is mediocre. Wix sites routinely fail Google's Core Web Vitals
You can't export your site if you ever want to leave
SEO is locked into Wix's slow URL structure
Monthly fees forever. Pay $300/yr for 5 years and that's $1,500 you don't get back

Bottom line

When you should pick Wix

If you want to edit your site yourself every week and don't mind paying monthly forever, Wix is fine.

If you'd rather own the site, get it built once for $895 to $2,995, and never see another invoice, you want us.
