Websites and apps for small businesses, built and kept running by one studio.

Websites start at $1,200 for five pages with the words written for you, one contact form, search-engine basics and two rounds of changes. Most land between $1,200 and $2,400. Extra pages are $75 each. Online booking, reservations, class sign-ups or a quote form is the Workflow add-on, from $500, and it needs the Growth care plan. Moving an existing site as it is costs $150; connecting other software, and very long or specialist writing, are priced in your quote. Every site launches with a care plan from $29 a month, 3-month minimum. The price is fixed in writing before any work starts: at checkout if you order online, or after a reply or a free 15-minute intro call. For how that compares with a freelancer, a builder or an agency, read what a small business website should cost.

A website usually goes live about a week once your answers and photos are in. Small sites can go live the same week. Apps start with a Discovery Sprint of two to three business days. A web app takes about two weeks after that. An iPhone app takes about three weeks after the sprint, plus Apple's review time, which Apple decides. A web app and an iPhone app are separate projects; if you want both, they are priced together after one sprint. The pace depends on how quickly your feedback and approvals come back.

Yes. Within a few days of your deposit you get a private preview link that works on your phone, updated as the build goes. For an iPhone app you also get a test version to install on your phone before it goes to the App Store. Websites and web apps go live on your own domain when you approve them.

Yes. Your business owns the domain, the content, the design and the code from launch. HASP Labs sets up and runs the hosting account for your business, so there is nothing for you to set up; whenever you ask, you become its owner within 5 business days, free. iPhone apps are usually published under HASP Labs' Apple account and moved to yours, free, in the same time.

You don't need to. Email what should change, such as new prices, new hours or a new photo, and HASP Labs makes the change and sends it back for a quick look. Each care plan includes a set number of these requests: 2 a month on Essentials, 6 on Growth, 10 on App Care and 4 on iOS Care. Hosting only includes none. Extra requests are $35 each, agreed by email first. New pages, new sections and design changes are priced separately.

No. By default HASP Labs publishes your app under its own Apple developer account, so you need no Apple membership and pay no Apple fee, and the app moves to your own Apple account whenever you ask. Some apps go under your own account instead: apps in regulated fields such as banking, healthcare or legal services, because Apple requires it, and apps that sell subscriptions or digital goods inside the app, because Apple pays the account holder. You can also choose your own account. In those cases you hold the account and pay Apple's $99 a year directly to Apple; HASP Labs sets the account up with you and does the rest of the setup. Apple reviews every app and decides when it is approved.

Every HASP Labs website is built so Google can find, read and understand it: clear page titles and descriptions, one clear heading per page, fast loading on phones, a list of your pages for Google, and behind-the-scenes labels that tell search engines who you are, what you do and where. HASP Labs also connects Google Search Console, Google's free tool that shows what people searched to find you, and invites you to it when the site goes live. For a local business, HASP Labs sets up or tidies your Google Business Profile, the listing that appears in map results; Google may ask you to confirm the business is yours. No one can promise a position: Google decides rankings, based on your competition, your reviews and how useful your pages are over time. On a care plan the basics stay healthy, and on Growth you also get a monthly search report showing how people found you. Regular blog writing, link building and paid ads are not part of the plan. What search-engine basics include.

Anything that does not work as agreed is fixed free for 30 days after launch. After that your care plan covers it: email what is wrong and you get a first reply within your plan's response time. Support hours: Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central, by email. Fixing something HASP Labs built never uses up one of your monthly requests. If you have left your care plan, fixes are billed at $150/hour in 30-minute blocks, agreed first.

You can, and for a logo or a quick fix a marketplace is a good choice. For a business website the gaps add up: a marketplace fee on top of the price, revisions that stop at the gig's limit, no hosting or updates after delivery, rights that transfer only when the order closes, and a seller who is often several time zones away. HASP Labs gives you a fixed price in writing before any work starts, a private link you can check on your phone throughout the build, a business that owns its code, content and domain from launch, and hosting and support afterwards from the person who built it.

If you have the time and want to maintain it yourself, a builder is the cheapest route, and HASP Labs will tell you so. Most owners do not have the time: the first draft takes minutes and the finished site takes weeks of evenings. HASP Labs writes the words from your answers to a short set of questions, you check them, and HASP Labs builds the site, checks accessibility and search-engine basics, and launches it on your own domain about a week once your answers and photos are in. After that, changes are one email away. Online booking or a quote form can be added to the same site as the Workflow add-on, from $500; anything with customer logins or payments is a web app.

An agency brings a team and a longer process, which suits large or complex sites. For a five-to-ten page business site, much of the price pays for the layers between you and the person doing the work. HASP Labs removes the layers: you speak with the person building it, the price is fixed in writing, the site launches in about a week once content is in, and hosting and care continue from $29 a month without a separate retainer.
