Websites for local businesses
A website that's actually taken care of .
Most web designers build your site and disappear. I design and build it starting at $500 — then I stick around for $45/month to keep it hosted, updated, and working. No surprise bills, no abandoned sites.

What I Do
Everything your business needs to look legit online
Custom Design
A site designed around your business, not a generic template — built to reflect how customers already know you.
Mobile-Ready
Most of your customers will find you on their phone first. Every site is built to look sharp on any screen size.
Contact & Inquiries
Click-to-call, contact forms, maps, and hours — so customers can reach you without hunting for information.
Basic SEO Setup
Pages are set up so your business can actually be found on Google — proper titles, descriptions, and structure.
Ongoing Updates
Hours changed? New menu item? Care plan members get small content updates without lifting a finger.
Security & Backups
Hosting, security patches, and backups are handled for you — so you're never one plugin update away from a broken site.
How It Works
Three steps, about two weeks
We talk
A quick call or questionnaire about your business — what you offer, who your customers are, and what the site needs to do.
I design & build
I design and build your site, share a preview, and make revisions based on your feedback — usually within two weeks.
We launch
Your site goes live. If you join the care plan, I keep hosting it, backing it up, and making small updates from there.
Example Work
A look at the quality you can expect
A mix of real client work and a concept build — both show the same level of design and care every project gets.

Why Sable Studio
I don't build it and disappear.
Most freelance website builds end the day you pay the invoice — and six months later, nobody's around when the contact form breaks or the hours are out of date. Sable Studio is built differently: hosting, backups, security, and small updates are already part of the deal. You get one person to talk to, fixed pricing with no surprise costs, and a site that stays looked after long after launch day.
Questions
Before you reach out
What's the difference between Starter and Custom?
Starter is a clean, streamlined site (up to 4 sections) — a great fit if you just need the basics online. Custom includes a fully bespoke design with as many sections as your business needs, plus a full round of revisions. Not sure which fits? Reach out and I'll help you figure it out.
How long does it take to build my site?
Most sites launch within about two weeks of our kickoff call, depending on how quickly I get your content and feedback.
What if I don't like the design?
Every build includes one round of revisions, so we fine-tune the design together before it goes live.
Do I own my website?
Yes — the design and content are yours. The care plan covers hosting and maintenance, but you're never locked in.
What happens if I cancel the care plan?
You can cancel anytime. I'll help you export what you need so you can move your hosting elsewhere.
Can I see examples of your work first?
Sable Studio is a new studio, so instead of client testimonials, check out the concept demo above — it shows the same level of design and care every project gets.
What do I need to get started?
Just the basics: your business info, any existing branding (logo, colors, photos), and a sense of what the site needs to do. I'll guide you through the rest.
