What the $400 Rate
Actually Covers

The Founding Member Rate covers a full custom website. Here's what that means in practice, and where things can expand if you need more.

Number of Pages

Most small business sites need 4 to 6 pages: Home, About, Services, Contact, and maybe a couple of service-specific pages. The $400 rate covers a full site build at that scope. Larger projects with 10+ pages or a blog are scoped and quoted separately.

Content

The faster you can provide your business info, photos, and any copy you want to use, the faster your site gets done. If you need help writing the content, that's something we can work through together. It doesn't necessarily add cost, but it does add time.

SEO Scope

On-page SEO is built in from the start. Local schema, title tags, Google setup, all of it. If you want a more aggressive SEO strategy with additional location pages and keyword targeting, that's an add-on conversation we can have after launch.

Custom Functionality

A contact form is standard and included. Online booking, e-commerce, customer portals, or app integrations are a different scope. Possible, but quoted separately based on what you need.

Timeline

Most sites are done within 5 to 10 business days once you've had the initial call and sent over your business info. The biggest delays are almost always waiting on content or feedback from the client side.

The Founding Member Rate

The $400 rate is a limited offer while Galeazzi Digital is building its local client base in East-Central Minnesota. It won't be this price forever. If you're on the fence, sooner is better than later.

Common Questions

Pricing FAQ

The questions I hear most from small business owners before they reach out.

Do I have to pay everything upfront?
No. Projects are typically split 50% at kickoff and 50% at launch. For a $400 project that's $200 to start and $200 when the site is ready to go live. Nothing more until you've seen the work and are happy with it.
What exactly does the $75/month cover?
Hosting, security updates, performance monitoring, backups, and minor content changes like updating your hours, adding a service, or swapping out a photo. It keeps your site running and current without you having to touch anything. You also get direct access if you have questions or need something looked at.
Can I make changes to my site myself?
The site is built with custom code, so changes aren't something you'd do yourself through a dashboard. That's what the $75/month is for — send me a message when something needs updating and I handle it. Most minor updates get done the same day.
How long does a website take to build?
Most sites are done within 5 to 10 business days from the initial call and receipt of your basic business info. The main factor that slows things down is waiting on content or review feedback from the client side, not the build itself.
Why not just use Wix or Squarespace?
For some situations, a DIY builder works fine. But if your goal is to show up in local Google searches and bring in new customers who don't already know you, a custom-built site with real SEO setup does it better. The comparison table above breaks down the specifics.
Will my site actually show up on Google?
That's the whole point. Every site is built with on-page SEO, local schema markup, and Google setup so Google knows what your business does and where it serves customers. You're not just getting a pretty site — you're getting one that's set up to be found.
Do you work with businesses outside Pine City?
Absolutely. Everything works remotely — discovery call, content review, and launch all happen by phone, email, or video. I work with businesses across East-Central Minnesota including Mora, Hinckley, Rush City, Cambridge, North Branch, Sandstone, and beyond.
