Questions
How much does an artist website cost?
$1,000 for the design, the writing and the build. SEO setup is $600 more. $500 to start and $500 when it goes live.
Can I sell my work on it?
Yes. For a handful of originals or prints we add buy buttons, so you are paid directly. A large catalogue is better on a proper shop platform, and we will tell you if you need one.
Will my images look right?
We size and compress every image so the work loads fast on a phone and stays sharp on a big screen. Your originals stay yours, at full size.
Do I have to write anything?
No. We ask about the business on a 15-minute call, send a short list of questions, and write every page from your answers. Most artists spend about an hour on it in total.
How long does it take?
About two weeks. You see a first draft on a private link around day 7, and the site is live around day 14.
What does it cost after launch?
Nothing if you host it yourself, or $60 a month and we host it and make small changes.
