Project scoping call

▸30 minutes, questionnaire sent ahead so you can prepare answers and get the most out of the call
▸Clear recommendation and a path forward
▸Credited toward approved proposals (Tier 1 or Tier 2 web projects)

The $50 fee is applied as a credit toward your project when you book an approved Tier 1 or Tier 2 proposal. It is not a cash refund for a call that does not lead to a project.

GREAT VALUE

$1,000 – $1,500

// why

Why ANotSoI web packages?

ANotSoI web packages are for people who want a site they can own and move, without renting a plugin ecosystem. Here is how that compares to a typical small-business WordPress setup — not a claim that WordPress is never the right tool.

Why ANotSoI web packages compared with a typical WordPress site
// topic	Typical WordPress site	ANotSoI web package
What runs when someone visits	Often PHP plus a database on every request	✓ Pre-built HTML files on a CDN
Upkeep surface	CMS core, themes, and plugins that need patching	✓ Static files — no login page or plugin stack to babysit
Who holds the keys	Easy to end up locked to a host or page builder	✓ You get a git repository and DNS you control
Content changes	Admin UI for everything — including layout risk	✓ Scoped content updates, or Markdown/MDX workflows on Tier 2
When something breaks	Can be a plugin conflict or a DB issue at 2 a.m.	✓ Fewer moving parts; production stays off homelab hardware
Fit	Fine when you truly need a CMS and plugins	✓ Built for small sites that should stay fast and boring to operate

// faq

FAQ

Is the price really fixed?

Yes. The scope is written down before work starts and the price does not move. Anything outside the package is quoted separately, in writing, before it is done.

Who owns the site?

You do. The source code lives in a git repository available to you, the domain is registered to you, and the site can be moved to another developer or host without asking permission.

Why not WordPress?

For a 3-to-5 page business site, a database and a plugin stack add patching work and attack surface without adding anything your customers see. Static pages are faster and have far less to break.

What does Care & DNS cover?

Care & DNS is billed monthly, month-to-month, with no long-term commitment. Tier 1 offers optional Care & DNS at $50/mo (uptime monitoring, proactive platform checks, full DNS management and renewal oversight). Tier 2 requires Advanced Care & DNS at $150/mo, which adds one major content update batch per month. Structural redesigns are quoted separately. Cancel anytime — the site keeps working and stays yours. Exact items are listed in your agreement.

How long does a build take?

The timeline is agreed during scoping and written into the agreement. It depends mostly on how quickly content and photos are ready.

Do you use AI to write my site?

Models may help draft or summarize. A person reviews everything, and nothing about your business is stated unless you have confirmed it.

What is the project scoping call?

A paid 30-minute discovery call ($50) with a questionnaire sent ahead. You leave with a clear recommendation and a path forward. The fee is credited toward an approved Tier 1 or Tier 2 web proposal.

What is the AI consultation?

AI Tier 1 is a $250 flat one-hour private session with a pre-session questionnaire and tailored agenda. It includes a live demo of workflows from my own homelab and tooling, a look at operational friction, and an honest read on where AI helps versus where it adds complexity. You get a session recording, AI-generated notes, and a written action plan.

Is there a minimum for AI implementation?

AI Tier 2 is $250/hour with an 8-hour minimum (one-day engagement). Work is project-scoped and includes documentation and handoff.

Where is my site hosted?

Hosted on a fast, reputable static hosting platform, offsite from my own hardware. Client production sites never run on local lab hardware, so a power outage or maintenance window here cannot take your site down.
