introducing the 'customized' two-week website!
my signature, stream-lined build that includes everything you need to bring your business online
I’ll be honest - if this is the story with the three bears and their porridge, this is the ‘just right’ solution for most entrepreneurs.
This is for you if you’re looking for a high-quality, fully custom website build that doesn’t drag on for ages or break the bank.
It’s exactly what I needed when I first started out as a health coach – a beautiful website I felt confident to launch with, simple enough for me to run and edit myself without skimping on quality, and something I could grow with as my business developed.
And, I'll make sure it has everything you need to be successful.
→ user-friendly design focused on selling your services
→ newsletter opt-in set up for you
→ (I'll even program your lead magnet delivery)
→ social media integration
→ scheduling integration for your free, exploratory call or services
→ project end tutorial so that you can maintain and edit everything

And while it is true that if you don’t have a website, you probably don’t have a business – a website alone isn’t all you need.

Don't take it from me...
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.
-Casey Kaczmarek
For a long time, I was daunted by the idea of creating my own website and I could not be more grateful that I found Kara to build it for me. Â She made the whole process very simple, organized and straightforward. Â She was efficient, thoughtful and super easy to work with. Â I am so happy with my beautiful new site and would highly recommend her to anyone who needs their own!

Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need to get started?
My design process is collaborative. You don’t need anything (besides an idea!) to schedule an introductory call. Once we decide to work together, I’ll send you a checklist of everything that I’ll need from you. This includes things like hosting account access, your website copy, images, your logo and browser icon, and brand guidance (colors, fonts).
If you’re unsure about any of that – don’t worry! I’ll walk you through the process and what everything is on the introductory call.
How much does hosting cost?
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.
I've never had a website before, will this work for me?
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 need an e-commerce site. Can you help?
Yes! E-commerce is not a traditional part of the Two-Week Website. You will need to book add-ons and we may need to discuss a premium build. Get in touch and we’ll get it sorted.
What if I need more help?
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).
Will my website really be ready in two weeks?
Yes! My typical Two-Week Website build begins on a Monday and wraps up two Monday’s later.
I build in an extra week just in case you need a bit more time to provide feedback, or if my kid gets sick, or your kid / dog / person gets sick, etc. – but the build is expected to take two weeks and definitely no longer than three.
Do you have a payment plan?
Two Week-Website builds are paid in two installments. The vast majority of them are $2,000 so $1,000 is paid upfront to reserve my time, and the remaining $1,000 is due three weeks from the project start date.
Will I work directly with you or do you have a team doing the website work?
You work directly with me! I take all exploratory calls and field all client communication. My assistant helps with some of the site work, but its all supervised and project-managed by yours truly. If you need a more complex graphic design asset (certain styles of logo, etc), you’ll work directly with the Kara +Co graphic designer.
What's your refund policy?
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.
