Websites for new businesses, $0 down

Payment processors, banks and vendors often ask for a business website during signup. A real site with your services, contact info and policies makes those forms a lot easier to get through.

It also gives new customers somewhere to check you out. A social page works for a while, but a domain with your business name tells people you plan to stick around.

No logo yet? Logo design is a $199 add-on. No photos? We source images that fit your business. You'll see your homepage within 24 hours of the intake form, in two design directions, with a short video walkthrough.

• A homepage that says what you do and where you do it
• Your services, with starting prices if you want them public
• A contact form that lands in your inbox
• A domain registered in your name
• Basic local SEO and your Google Business Profile linked up
• Room for policy pages you provide, like refunds or privacy, if a processor asks for them

Your business in month six won't look like it does today. That's normal, and your site should keep up.

A typical month for a new business: add a service you just started offering, adjust a price, swap stock photos for pictures of your first real jobs. Send the request from your phone, check the preview, tap Approve.

It's a 12-month plan, then month to month. Your first payment happens at launch, after you approve the site.

• One Page, $69 a month: one service, one scrolling page, live fast. The domain is registered at cost.
• Standard, $99 a month: a few services, separate About and Contact pages, 4 changes a month and your domain included.
• Plus, $149 a month: up to 10 pages and a blog, if writing is part of how you'll get found.
