You could build it yourself. Here is what that costs.

Website builders are good software, and they are cheap for a reason. They leave the work to you: deciding what the site is for, writing it, designing it, connecting the systems you already use and keeping it all running. What you save in money gets spent somewhere else.

What it costsLess money, and a lot of your eveningsMore money, agreed before any work starts

Most self-built sites I see were started and never finished. The owner ran out of evenings.

If a simple brochure is all you need, a website builder is a good answer, and I will say so on the call.

And yes, AI is part of how this is built.

It is also part of what gets delivered, which is the point. It is not a discount. It is the reason a business your size can have tools that needed a development team two years ago. The work is still the work: knowing what to build, then building it properly. Anyone selling you speed is selling you the wrong thing.
