01 Where we started

What we built it around.

  1. 01

    Arguably the best cider variety America has ever produced.

    Your line on the Harrison. Option 1 stands your ciders in a row and gives each one its own sentence from your varieties page.

  2. 02

    Stay me with flagons; comfort me with apples.

    The verse on your orchard pages. Option 2 hangs it under the fruit, over a roll of the apples you grow or have grown.

  3. 03

    A retirement project that would span several generations.

    From your story. Option 3 bills the family by name under your tasting room, with the afternoon passing across your hours.

    Twelve launch graphics for your own channels (email, socials, site banners), each sized for feeds and stories, with moving versions of the best four.

    A phone receptionist, first month

    From Hire Whoever, our sister company: a voice assistant built around your tasting room, so callers asking about hours, what's pouring or this weekend's events get an answer while your team is pouring, and every call becomes a short written record.

06 Questions

The usual questions.

  1. 01

    Will moving hurt my Google ranking?

    We move it carefully. Every page address on your current site keeps working or forwards to its new page, and your titles and business details carry over, so nothing Google already knows about breaks. The new site is fast and built for phones first, which Google rewards. We don't promise rankings.

  2. 02

    Is it secure?

    Yes. It's built lean and tested on a preview first. Your forms, online shop and checkout keep working the way they do now.

  3. 03

    Who owns it?

    You do. The design and every file sit in your name. Your domain stays with you; nothing of ours renews unless you ask.

  4. 04

    How do I make changes?

    Text or email me the change and it's live the next business day. The first 30 days are free. After that, unlimited changes come with any monthly plan, from $250 a month, cancel anytime.

  5. 05

    When do I pay?

    Half ($1,250) when you say go, the rest ($1,250) when the site is live. You've seen the homepage before paying anything.

  6. 06

    What about new releases?

    Then the site changes with them. New ciders, hours and events are easy to update, and I'll load your current lineup into it as part of the build.
