How it works

We design professional WordPress websites for free. Simple, clean, and built to help your business shine.

Most projects take about 1 week to complete. While our free website offer doesn’t cover complex, highly custom builds with advanced features, it’s perfect for most local business and personal websites.

What that means for you: we’ll handle all the back-end setup, put the tech in place, and match you with a polished design so your website not only functions smoothly but also looks incredible.

Frequently asked questions

Because we know that most small businesses can’t (or don’t want to) spend thousands upfront just to get online. We want to build connections with local businesses in Charlotte to help them kickstart their journey. Our model is simple. We build the website for free so you can start quickly, then we charge a small monthly fee to keep it updated, secure, and stress-free.

You can apply .

We take the time to personally review each application that comes in. When deciding who’s a good fit for the free-website program, we look at a few key things:

  • Does the idea for the website make sense and feel like a good match?

  • Is the business or project ethical?

  • Is the site fairly straightforward, or would it be too complex for what this program is designed to cover?

This plan is designed specifically for local businesses in the Charlotte area. We work best with owners who are serious about growing their business and want a reliable online presence without the hassle of managing it themselves. If you’re dedicated to your business’s success and ready for a long-term partner to handle your website, this plan is built for you.

Yes! All of your content, branding, and images belong to you. If you ever decide to leave, you can take your site with you.

To keep a website online, you’ll need hosting, which usually costs just a few dollars a month. If you’d like to handle hosting yourself, I’ll provide a referral link to Hostinger, a provider I trust, so you can sign up directly while also helping cover my time. But if you’d rather skip the hassle, I can take care of everything for you-hosting, security, and updates for a simple monthly fee so your site runs smoothly without you ever needing to worry about it.

If you already have a domain name, perfect! We can use that. And if you haven’t picked one yet, no worries at all. I’ll walk you through the process and help you choose the right one.

We review most applications within 48-72 hours, and accept approximately 30% of those who apply.

There’s no deadline pressure. Once your site is built, you’ll have full flexibility to add or change content whenever it suits you. We’ll walk you through the process so you can make updates on your own, and the best part is it’s simple with no coding required.

Yes. When you get a free website through our program, it automatically includes one year of ongoing support through our Website Care Plan. This plan is $150/month and covers everything you need (maintenance, updates, security, and tech support) so your site keeps running smoothly.

The website build itself is free, but the monthly plan is required for that first year.

After the first year, you’re free to continue with the plan or manage the website fully on your own.

What’s included in the $150/month plan?

Everything you need for peace of mind—managed hosting, backups, SSL security, updates, unlimited small edits, and support from a local partner who actually answers your emails.

No surprises here! Your plan is $150/month, flat. The only extra costs would be if you request bigger upgrades like e-commerce, booking systems, or extra pages beyond the free build. The only other exception is a $500 migration fee if you decide to move your site to another hosting provider within your first year of service. After the first year, migration is free.

There are no long-term contracts. If you decide to cancel your $97/month plan within the first year, a $500 fee applies to cover the initial website build. After your first year, you’re free to cancel anytime with no fee.

To qualify for the free website offer, you’ll just need to set up hosting with my recommended provider, Hostinger. For example, has a one-year plan that comes out to about $1.99 per month, which is roughly $24 for the entire year. When you use my discount link, they often include a couple of extra months at no charge. That means you can get a professional WordPress website, the kind most agencies charge thousands of dollars for, at a total cost of less than $30.

In order for a website to be live on the internet, it needs web hosting. The only real way around this is using a service like Wix, but the catch is that your domain will look something like yourdomain.wix.com instead of a clean, professional address. If you want a proper website with your own domain name — for example, yourdomain.com — then web hosting is required.

If you’d like to dive deeper into how websites are set up, this guide explains the basics really well: https://websitesetup.org/ (notice that the very first step is always getting hosting).

How long does it take to get my site live?

Most sites launch within a few days of receiving your content. We keep things quick and simple so you can start showing off your business online.

That’s exactly why our plan exists. We monitor your site, back it up weekly, and protect it with security tools. If something goes wrong, we fix it for you.

Not at all. We handle all the hosting, updates, and tech stuff. You just let us know if you need something changed, and we’ll take care of it.

f you choose to handle your own hosting, you’re free to cancel the $97/month web care plan within 30 days after your website goes live. The same applies if you sign up for hosting through my Hostinger affiliate link — you’ll still have that 30-day window to change your mind. Hostinger is a very budget-friendly option, just a few dollars a month for the first year, and it’s consistently well reviewed.

And if you’d rather go with another provider, companies like Bluehost also offer a 30-day refund policy. Since I usually finish websites within about 12–15 days, you’ll have plenty of time to decide whether everything feels like the right fit for you.

What platform do you use to build websites?

We build websites using WordPress—the world’s most popular content management system. In fact, nearly one-third of all websites online are powered by it. For most businesses, it’s the ideal choice because it’s flexible, reliable, and easy to manage (unless you need something extremely custom or complex).

The best part? WordPress itself is completely free. Once you have your web hosting set up, we’ll install it for you and get everything ready to go.

We create clean, professional websites through our free-website program. Our focus is on simplicity and functionality, so we don’t take on projects that require heavy customization or advanced features.

Not at all. We guide you through the entire process with simple, step-by-step instructions. And when your website is finished, we’ll provide unlimited small updates such as photos, content, and menu changes.

The easiest way to make sure your website looks polished and professional is by starting with a high-quality template. These templates are created by expert designers and instantly give your site a modern, attractive look.

We give you options: you can choose a free WordPress template, use one you’ve already purchased, or go with Elementor—a powerful and very popular website builder that we highly recommend. Elementor comes with a huge library of templates, and you can customize nearly everything about them—colors, fonts, layouts, images, buttons, and more.

There’s an entire marketplace of professional WordPress themes out there, and we’ll guide you through the choices to find the best fit for your brand. Once you’ve picked a template, just let us know what changes or tweaks you’d like to see, and we’ll customize it so your website looks and feels exactly the way you want.

As long as you respond to our emails quickly and don’t request major custom features, we can usually complete your website within 2 weeks. If you’d like extra time to work on things like your content, design choices, or logo, that’s completely fine. We’re happy to move at whatever pace works best for you.

Absolutely. Once your website is complete, you’ll remove our user account, which ends our access to the back end. At that point, we’ll have no ability to edit or change anything. Your website is entirely yours. We don’t own it or have any control over it.

Definitely. Once your website is finished, we’ll provide you with a step-by-step video tutorial showing you how to make your own edits, so there’s no need to hire a developer. You’ll have complete control and the know-how to update anything you like, whether it’s buttons, text, photos, or any other part of your site.

We handle everything needed to get your website up and running, from the backend setup to the frontend design.

Once it’s ready, your part is simple. You just add your text, upload photos, and personalize it.

To make that easy, we’ll send you a detailed tutorial video along with helpful resources for finding high-quality, free photos you can use.
