FAQ

Fair questions, straight answers.

Everything owners usually ask before we build their website.

Is the website really free?

Yes. The design and build are free — we’d rather earn your trust by showing you the finished website than by pitching you on one. If you want it live and maintained, the care plan is $169 a month and we handle everything.

What’s the catch?

There isn’t one. If you don’t love the website we build, you don’t use it and you don’t pay anything. We make our living on the care plan, not on the build.

What does the $169/month care plan cover?

Hosting, SSL security, maintenance, backups, and content updates — new hours, new services, new photos. Plus email support from a real person whenever you need it. Billed monthly, no setup fees.

What do you need from me to start?

About fifteen minutes: your logo if you have one, a few photos, and the story of your business. We write the words, design the pages, and handle all the technical pieces.

How does the process work?

You tell us about your business. We research your trade and your area, then design and build the site. We send you the finished website to review — and if you love it, we put it live under the care plan.

Will my website show up on Google?

Every site ships with local SEO fundamentals: proper page titles, descriptions, headings, and clean structure that Google understands. No one can promise top rankings and we won’t — but your site will be built the right way from day one.

Do I need to be technical?

Not at all. That’s the point of “we handle everything.” You run your business; if the website needs anything, you email us and it gets done.

Can I stop the care plan later?

The plan is billed month to month. If it ever stops making sense for your business, just email us and we’ll take care of it — no phone maze, no retention script.

Who do I talk to if I have questions?

Harry — harry@localshopweb.com. A real person reads and answers every message.
