- Optional buyout: After six consecutive full-price qualifying monthly payments have been collected, an account in good standing may request a $499 buyout. Failed, refunded, disputed, reversed, credited, or discounted invoices do not qualify unless a separate written agreement says otherwise. Six qualifying payments plus the buyout total $1,093 excluding applicable tax. Transfer requires a separate signed assignment and is not automatic.

- Excluded from the standard plan: Large multi-page sites, e-commerce, custom booking software, advanced SEO campaigns, paid ads, complex integrations, and major redesigns.
- Service area: United States.
- Best fit: Owner-operated local service businesses that need one clear page for services, location or service area, trust information, and a direct call, booking link, estimate request, or contact action.
- Poor fit: E-commerce, large content libraries, custom booking software, advanced ongoing SEO campaigns, or complex integrations without a separate written quote.
- Basic technical SEO: Descriptive page titles and meta descriptions, crawlable semantic content, a canonical URL, mobile-responsive delivery, and appropriate structured data when business facts are verified. It excludes ongoing content production, link building, paid advertising, ranking guarantees, and advanced SEO campaigns.

## Evidence boundaries

- Design examples demonstrate visual directions; they are not customer-result claims.
- Preview pages are independent concepts until the business owner verifies details and approves launch.
- The service does not guarantee rankings, traffic, leads, sales, or revenue.
