Websites for non-profits in Rhode Island and Massachusetts.
I build websites for non-profits in Rhode Island and Massachusetts, and I stick around afterward for the updates, the backups, and the photo somebody needs swapped before Thursday. Most of my work comes by word of mouth from people I’ve already helped. I’d like to keep it that way.
New websites for RI and MA non-profits include a year of care
If your organization is a registered non-profit in Rhode Island or Massachusetts and I build your new website, the Community care plan ($95 a month) is included for the first twelve months. That covers software updates, backups, small content changes, and someone to call. It’s worth $1,140.* You pay for the build and nothing else in year one.
* Hosting and the domain aren’t included: about $36 the first year and about $216 a year after that, paid to the host in your organization’s name.
What I do
Websites for non-profits
A new site, or repairs to the one you have. Built on WordPress so your own team can edit it, and made to work on phones, because that’s where most people will see it.
Digital asset management
Your logos, photos, documents, and brand files, gathered into one organized library with backups, so the right version is easy to find.
Monthly care plans
A flat monthly fee of $95, $149, or $249 that covers content updates, software updates, backups, and someone to call when something breaks.

in surprise invoices. Every price is on the pricing page.
How I work
It starts with a conversation, usually because a client of mine introduced you (they get two months of care for that, so tell me who). We talk about your mission, what your current site does and doesn’t do, and what you’d want a new one to do. No slides.
Then I build it: the design, the words moved in and tidied, a WordPress setup your own team can run without me. Sometimes that means a new site. Often it means repairing the one you have, which costs less and I’ll say so.
After launch I stay on, under a monthly care plan. The site gets updated and backed up, and when you need something changed you send me a message and it gets done. I keep the client list small so that last part stays true.

A confession from inside the trade: the tools took a generational leap, the labor melted away, and much of the industry kept the 2015 price list. Trust your arithmetic.
