What the Starter Business Website includes
3 core pages
A focused website structure, typically built around a homepage, a services or about page, and a contact or inquiry page. This gives customers the basic information they need without overbuilding the project.
Built around your business, not a generic template
We use a focused intake and review process to understand the basics of your business before building. This helps the website reflect your actual services, customers, location, and goals instead of sounding like a generic template.
The Starter package does not include a full written Discovery Assessment, client portal, strategy blueprint, or custom business implementation plan unless quoted separately.
Mobile-friendly design
Your site is built for people browsing from their phones, which is often how customers first find and evaluate a local business.
Basic lead capture form
Visitors get a simple way to ask a question, request help, or start a conversation instead of leaving the site with no clear next step.
Business hours display
Your site can display approved standard business hours when the client provides them.
Basic open or closed status is not included by default. If included on a specific project, it must be based on approved standard weekly hours only. Holiday hours, temporary closures, seasonal schedules, staff schedules, appointment availability, and real-time scheduling logic are quoted separately.
Local search and Google review link readiness
The site is structured with your services and service area in mind and can include approved Google Business Profile and review links when provided by the client.
This supports a cleaner local presence foundation without promising rankings, SEO campaign work, or live Google review syncing.
Launch preparation
The website is prepared for a professional go-live with the basic structure, pages, links, responsive checks, and pre-launch review needed before launch.
Domain connection and go-live support may be included only when domain access, DNS access, and the hosting path are available and within Starter scope. Domain recovery, DNS cleanup, registrar troubleshooting, email migration, and complex launch issues are quoted separately.
One structured revision round
The Starter package includes one organized revision round after the initial draft. Additional revision rounds, redesign requests, new sections, added pages, or feature changes are quoted separately.
Starter Hosting & Basic Care
Required monthly care keeps the site hosted, maintained, and monitored after launch, starting at $50/month.
Starter Hosting & Basic Care includes hosting coordination, SSL maintenance, routine maintenance, basic monitoring, backups where supported by the hosting setup, and minor website updates within the care scope.
It does not include unlimited edits, ongoing SEO, Google Ads management, content campaigns, redesigns, advanced troubleshooting, or business consulting.
Content responsibilities
The Starter Business Website includes light content formatting and light editing of client-provided content.
The client is responsible for providing accurate business information, service details, contact information, hours, images, logos, testimonials, and other required content.
Original copywriting, brand strategy, content migration, large-scale rewriting, long-form page copy, blog writing, professional photography, and content creation beyond the Starter scope are quoted separately.

Starter Website Notes
Built for very small, owner-led businesses that need a simple, professional online presence without a full custom website project.
Businesses that need more structure, strategy, pages, SEO planning, custom design, payment workflows, booking, CRM, or growth support should consider the Owner-Operator Website or Professional Website Foundation.
The Starter Business Website includes one basic contact form powered by Formspree. The standard form includes name, email, phone, and message fields. Form submissions are routed to the client's business email inbox.
The Starter Business Website also includes initial setup of one professional business email inbox with Zoho Mail when Simplified Tech Solutions creates or manages the domain/DNS. The inbox must be able to send and receive using the client's business domain.
Simplified Tech Solutions handles website form connection and mailbox setup only. Ongoing mailbox use, passwords, storage, spam, devices, email migration, customer inquiries, and day-to-day mailbox management remain the client's responsibility unless separately agreed in writing.
Formspree plan limits, submission limits, paid upgrades, provider fees, domain registration, domain renewals, Zoho Mail fees, mailbox fees, and platform fees are paid separately by the client.
Simplified Tech Solutions does not promise unlimited form submissions as part of the Starter Business Website.
Starter Business Website pricing assumes a clean STS-approved setup. For the simplest and most affordable launch, Simplified Tech Solutions prefers to use its approved hosting and platform setup rather than inherit an existing domain, email, or website configuration from another provider.
If the client already has a domain, email, or old website through providers such as GoDaddy, Squarespace, Namecheap, Wix, Google, Microsoft, or another provider, STS can review and connect it when appropriate. Additional setup, DNS cleanup, transfer, or troubleshooting fees may apply.
- Existing Domain / Email Cleanup
- Quoted Separately
- Complex DNS / Transfer / Troubleshooting
- Quoted Separately
These apply only when an existing or messy domain, email, registrar, DNS, or old website setup requires extra work. The starting price includes the normal simple setup.
The Starter Business Website is a fixed-scope package. Booking systems, payment processing, ecommerce, CRM or HoneyBook setup, automations, client portals, databases, advanced integrations, and custom web application functionality are reviewed through Business Discovery and quoted separately.
Is your website ready for Google Ads?
Google Ads can be a strong next step when your business has one clear offer, a defined service area, and a simple way for customers to contact you.
Google Ads Setup & Launch is available as an add-on for eligible Starter Business Website and Owner-Operator Website projects after a readiness review.
If your business needs more messaging, more pages, booking, payments, CRM, or stronger lead capture before paid traffic makes sense, Simplified Tech Solutions may recommend strengthening the website first.
A good fit usually has:
- One clear service or offer to promote
- A defined city or service area
- A working contact path
- A business email inbox
- Clear hours or response expectations
- Budget for ad spend separate from setup
- Ability to respond quickly to new leads
Not ready yet? STS may recommend the Owner-Operator Website or a quoted website project before launching ads.
Need more than a contact form?
Some businesses need more than a simple website contact form. If you need proposals, deposits, payments, client information tracking, client communication, or a more organized back-office process, Simplified Tech Solutions may recommend HoneyBook as a third-party platform.
HoneyBook requires its own paid subscription, paid separately by the client. Simplified Tech Solutions may connect your website to HoneyBook by adding your approved HoneyBook inquiry form, embed, or link to your website.
HoneyBook account setup, workflows, templates, automations, payment settings, proposal setup, contract setup, client portal settings, onboarding, training, platform instruction, and ongoing platform use are handled by the client directly with HoneyBook unless separately quoted by Simplified Tech Solutions.

Who Growth Partnership is for
Growth Partnership is designed for small businesses that already have a professional website and want continued support improving visibility, content, lead generation, and performance after launch.
It is a good fit for businesses that need regular website updates, local SEO guidance, Search Console and analytics review, Google Ads performance review when ads are active, and practical recommendations on what to improve next.
This plan is best for established owner-led businesses that want their website to keep working as a business asset, not just sit online unchanged.
Growth Partnership is not a replacement for a full marketing department, unlimited website support, full social media management, or guaranteed search rankings.
