It's your business. You should own it.

A lot of web companies keep your domain and your code. We don't.

Your domain, in your name

Your web address is a business asset. We help you register it with a domain registrar under your own account and set everything up. If you ever leave, it goes with you.

Your code on GitHub

You get access to your website's code in a GitHub repository. You can see the work, keep a copy, or bring in another developer whenever you like.

Bills you can read

Log in to see each month's bill line by line: your services and your hosting, with Amazon Web Services costs passed through and itemized.

Our work

Spring Valley Tree Farm

A family-owned choose-and-cut Christmas tree farm in Spring Valley, Ohio. They had been taking reservations through a generic ticketing platform that charged a fee on every ticket and couldn't follow how the farm runs its season.

We built them their own website and reservation system:

  • Time-slot reservations with a per-tree deposit, paid straight to the farm's own Stripe account
  • A season calendar where the family sets open days, hours, slot length and how many visitors each slot holds
  • A season switch and countdown clock, so the site changes itself when the farm opens and closes
  • A 40th-anniversary home page the family can switch on for their celebration season, and switch back off afterwards
  • A customer list built from every reservation, with staff notes and booking history
  • Email campaigns to past visitors, plus confirmation and cancellation emails in the farm's own words
  • A price list the family edits themselves, which updates the public prices page
  • Staff tools to reschedule, refund and look up any reservation on the day
