Questions, answered.
Can't find what you need? Call or send a message.
What does the monthly fee cover?
Hosting, basic technical maintenance, a set number of small updates each month (Starter up to 3, Local Growth up to 6, Premium up to 10), and support. I reply within 2 business days on Starter, 1 to 2 business days on Local Growth, and same or next day on Premium.
How long does a build take?
Starter takes 5 to 7 business days, Local Growth 10 to 14 business days, and Premium 3 to 4 weeks. The clock starts once your deposit and content are in.
What do I need to give you?
Your logo, photos of your work, and a list of your services. If you don't have a logo or photos yet, tell me and we'll figure it out.
Can I upgrade later?
Yes, you can move to a bigger package later. I'll quote the upgrade based on what's already built, so you never pay twice for the same work.
What kinds of businesses do you build for?
Local service businesses such as cleaners, barbers, landscapers, painters, HVAC companies, auto detailers and remodelers.
Which areas do you serve?
I'm based in Chicago and work with businesses across Chicagoland and the Midwest. Clients outside the area work with me by phone and video call.
Will my site work on phones?
Yes. Every package is mobile-friendly.
Are there long contracts?
No. After launch your plan runs month to month, and you can cancel any time with 30 days' notice by email. The setup fee is non-refundable once design work begins.
Who owns my website?
You do. Once your account is paid in full, the design and content made for your business are yours. Your logo, photos and text are always yours, and your domain is registered in your name whenever possible.
Can you update my site after it launches?
Yes. Small updates like editing text, swapping a photo or changing your hours are included each month (Starter up to 3, Local Growth up to 6, Premium up to 10) and are usually done within 3 business days. Bigger changes are quoted first at $75 per hour.
How do I pay?
The setup fee is split in two: half when you sign, half before your site goes live. The monthly fee starts on launch day and is billed in advance to your card on file.
Local, independent, and hands-on.
The person you talk to is the person who builds your site.
A local developer, not an agency.
Frank's Web Studio is a one-person business. I'm a local stay-at-home dad and independent developer, building websites for service businesses across Chicagoland and the Midwest.
After years in sales, I'm taking a leap of faith and betting on myself to build something of my own. My goal is to help businesses grow while creating a future on my own terms.
