Web design for businesses around Grass Valley and Nevada City
I’m Brent DeMartini. I plan, design and check every page of websites for local businesses, and you deal with me from the first call to the day yours goes live.
A short form. I reply within two business days. No charge, no pressure.
That’s what I help with. Here’s how it works.
How it works
You don’t need to know anything about websites. Bring your phone photos and an idea of who your customers are. I take care of the rest.
A short form: the basics take two minutes. Add more if you have time, and our call gets shorter.
We talk about your customers, what you sell and what the site needs to do. You don't need to know what you want yet.
Phone photos of your work, your place and your team are fine. I send you a private folder link to drop them in. This is when you pay half, for example $750 on Starter. The other half is due when the site goes live.
First I show you two different looks for your homepage. Pick one, or mix the parts you like. About two weeks after I have your deposit and photos, you get the whole site on a private link.
Send me one list of what to change. I make the changes. Nothing goes live until you say it's ready.
On a 30 minute call we put the site live on your web address, in your name, and I walk you through every click. Then I show you how to change text, photos, hours and prices yourself.
Work
Welding and fabrication, Grass Valley
A shop that does six different kinds of work needed a site that sends each customer to the right place. Each service has its own page, the gallery shows the shop’s real jobs, and the quote form takes photos and drawings straight from a phone.
Pricing
Each package is a fixed price. If you want something extra along the way, I price it and you agree before I do it.
For a business that mostly needs to be found and called.
Up to 5 pages, for example Home, Services, About, Gallery and Contact.
For several services, or for booking and quote requests online.
Up to 10 pages, with a page for each main service.
For an online store, memberships or several locations.
Scope and price agreed on our call, before any work starts.
Half to book your start date, half when the site goes live. I send a card invoice after our call.
Your site runs on Wix, which bills you directly to keep it online: about $18 to $40 a month on a yearly plan. A web address like yourbusiness.com is about $20 a year. I don’t charge a monthly fee.
Not sure which fits? Tell me about your business and I’ll say, even if it’s the smallest one.
About
I live in Grass Valley, and I also run two online brands of my own, Beast Mode Soap and PyCey.
I take on a few website projects at a time, so each one gets my full attention. You won’t be handed off to an account manager: you’re dealing with me from the first call to the day your site goes live, and I answer for every line of it.
Questions
About three to four weeks from your deposit to going live. The first draft comes about two weeks after I have your deposit and photos.
About three hours in total, spread over a few weeks: the form, a 30 minute call, gathering photos, looking at the draft, and a 30 minute call to go live.
That's common. Phone photos of your work, your place and your team usually do the job. If you don't have a logo, tell me on the call and we'll work out what makes sense.
You see two different looks before I build anything, and you can mix them. If neither feels right, we talk it through and I adjust before the build starts.
I put them together from your form and our call, and I go over every line myself. You read every page before it goes live, and you can change anything.
Yes. Text, photos, hours and prices are point and click, and I show you how on our last call. For bigger changes, ask me and I'll give you a price first.
Your site runs on Wix, and Wix bills you directly to keep it online: about $18 to $40 a month on a yearly plan, depending on features like online booking. A web address like yourbusiness.com is about $20 a year, and the first year is often included with a yearly plan. I don't charge a monthly fee.
Yes. The site and your web address are in your name and paid by you. If you ever stop working with me, nothing changes and nothing needs to move.
Your current site stays up until the new one is ready. If you already have a web address, like yourbusiness.com, you keep it and your email keeps working. If you don't have one yet, we pick one together.
I set up the basics Google looks for: page titles, descriptions, your business details and a link to your Google Business Profile. No one can honestly promise a ranking, and I won't.
Yes. If you use something like Square, Vagaro, Fresha or Toast, I add a button that opens it, so customers book or order the way they do now.
Yes, anything worth keeping: words, photos, menus, price lists.
The basics take two minutes. I read every one myself and reply within two business days.
There’s no charge to talk, and you’ll come away knowing what your site needs, whether you hire me or not.
