Pricing

Prices you can read before you write to me

All prices are in US dollars. Rental and care plans are monthly. One-off jobs are priced from the figure shown, and fixed after I look at your site.

Care plans

For a website you already own. Monthly, cancel when you like after the first month.

Plan Price What is included
Zen Base from $79 / month CMS, theme and plugin updates; backups; basic security checks; form and error monitoring; written support.
Zen Business from $149 / month Everything in Base, plus small edits to the site, help with content and priority response when something breaks.
Zen E-commerce from $199 / month Store care: payment, shipping and order checks; critical update monitoring; backups before any change; priority for anything affecting sales.
Different platforms cost differently to look after. WordPress starts at $79. PrestaShop and custom PHP sites start at $149. Ask and I will give you a number.

Questions about price

Are these final prices

Monthly plans and rental are fixed. One-off jobs say from, because a malware cleanup on a small site and on a damaged store are not the same job. You always get the number before I start.

Is there sales tax

Prices are in US dollars. Any applicable tax appears on the invoice, and I tell you before you pay.

Can I start with something small

Yes, that is the idea. A small fix or a free audit shows you how I work before you commit to anything.

Do you lock the price

For rental, the monthly price is fixed for 24 months with the same scope, even if my list prices rise.

Not sure which one fits

Send the site address and a line about what you need. I will point you to the cheapest option that does the job.
