You’ll choose a platform (SquareSpace or WordPress) and a template. The template enables me to offer you a quality website at a very low rate – but I’ll modify things as needed.
 * a mobile-responsive website on a reputable hosting and design platform *
* a design based off of a beautiful template, installed and modified by a pro *
* all your content uploaded *
*access to all of my relevant courses so you can make edits and further customize with ease*
* 48 hours of customer support *
* lifetime access to my reduced hourly rate for any future work you might need done *
The templated website gets you a build based on a pre-made template of your choice.
You get:
→The 4 pages most businesses need (Home, About, Services, Contact)
→Contact form configured
→Template will be adapted to include your provided colors and fonts
→Email Opt-in added (instructions to connect with MailChimp or Squarespace campaigns will be provided)
Additional pages are $100 each and will be billed separately prior to the build start.
E-commerce / stores and integrations are not included in this option.
These are my recommended options. If you’d like a template or theme that you purchase on your own, please contact me for pricing.
+ cost of hosting
+ 80 hours installing the website and uploading content; some blood, sweat and tears; the occasional year off your life; opportunity costs; and the risk of a less than desired outcome
As a new health and wellness coach, I was nervous about being able to find a web designer who was enjoyable to work with and could make my vision come alive within a quick time-frame. Kara recommended a talented graphic designer on her team and I ended up with a logo that I feel encompasses my entire brand. But the best thing I got out of working with Kara was a website I absolutely LOVE beyond words.

I HIGHLY recommend working with Kara if you are in need of setting up a quality website but have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA how to make your vision come to life! Kara took all of my direction and vision to heart and created a BEAUTIFUL website that captures the essence of who I am and my brand! I feel like not only do I have a beautiful website that I could have never created myself but also the tools to start to begin to manage the website myself thanks to Kara’s guidance and support.

I’ve worked with all of these platforms and tech tools for years. This is how you get a quality website that doesn’t cost you your first born child, or your sanity.
Just choose your template, send over your content, and let me take care of the rest!
You should have your content ready to go by the build date. If you have all of your copy (website text), images, logo and brand guidance (colors, fonts suggestions) ready to go, then you’re ready! (You can get my full Prep Work guide here).
You can also book a build date a week or so out so that you have time to create these materials.
SquareSpace:Â SquareSpace hosting is about $220/year. If you book your build with me you get 20% off the first year, so you’ll pay about $185 the first year.
WordPress:Â My recommendation for WordPress hosting is SiteGround. They’re pricing is $85-$120/year depending on the plan you select. If you already have hosting, I’ll also work with Bluehost and GoDaddy accounts.
Yes! I take care of all the difficult setup and show you everything you need to know to maintain your site going forward.
I work with easy-to-use editing tools so that you can make changes to your website yourself. I also give you access to relevant courses so that you can learn how to create custom pages in the future!
I’m here for you! I offer free content, paid courses and 1:1 services in pretty much every area of online business from website design to online marketing.
As a build client, you also get access to my reduced hourly rate for any future work you need done. (Previous clients get $50/hour – those who come to me just for hourly work get a $75/hour rate).
Yes! The caveat is depending on availability when you book your build, you may have to wait for the work to begin. Also, because I have a toddler and other things going on in my life, weekends are not included in the 1-week period.

Pretty much!
I’ll make small changes as needed to adapt the template to your content so that it looks as good as possible.
If you choose to use the templates inherent fonts and colors, it will look almost exactly the same. If you give me different colors and font choices, you’ll put your own branding spin on the template to make it your own.
I do not offer refunds for any work done as part of my 1:1 services. I am always open to having a discussion and helping you troubleshoot things so that you can find a solution.
If you’re not sure if this is the right fit for you, I do offer a money-back guarantee on all of my digital courses and tools for DIYers.
