what you actually get

Hosting and the domain stay with us.

You hire us. Hosting, the domain, backups, and the work log are already running. You pay for the hours on your project.

Hosting that stays up

Your site sits on servers Joseph runs. Not a shared-hosting lottery. If it goes down at 2am, that's his problem.

A place for the data

Bookings, orders, customers, inventory — stored and backed up, not a spreadsheet in someone's inbox.

Photos and files that load

Images and documents stored and served so a customer on a phone isn't waiting on a 4MB photo.

Your name and email

New sites go live on LocalFave.org first — yourname.localfave.org. A custom domain later, if you want one. Certificates and email forwarding stay with us either way.

Extra hands on the work

Current tools on design, code, and copy. The studio ships the change.

We keep the host

We deal with the hosting so you don't have to.

See a homepage before you pay.

Create an account first. Then we'll design a free homepage mockup in 48 hours — one concept, one revision. No invoice. No account. No mockup.

what we build

Sites, apps, and the work behind them

Most shops hand you a design and disappear. We build the site, keep it online, and stay on the clock.

Websites

Custom pages. No page builders. Works on a phone. Findable in search.

  • Custom design — no page builders
  • Phone-ready, findable in search
  • Forms, dashboards, bookings
  • Stores and content you can edit

Apps

Things that have to remember a customer — forms, dashboards, booking, stores.

  • Photo ID for cards or paperwork, when that's the job
  • A chat on your own data, if you need one
  • Reports and follow-ups that used to be manual
  • It goes live on LocalFave.org first

Software you sell by the month

Logins, plans, and the monthly bill. We'll tell you if that's bigger than a launch.

  • Accounts and roles
  • Subscriptions and plan gates
  • Each customer's data stays theirs
  • Deploys, monitoring, backups
how it works

From the first note to launch

Tell us about the business

Two minutes in the form. What you sell, who it's for, what a good week looks like.

~2 minutes

Get the free mockup or audit

A homepage made for your company, or a 10-point check of the site you have — so you can see the fit before you hire.

within 48 hours

Approve the mockup

One concept and one revision, free. When you approve, we launch. Care is $49/mo, and that $49 comes back as work credit every month.

your call

Launch, then use studio time

We put the site on LocalFave.org first. A custom domain later, if you want one. Changes use your included minutes. Extra time is prepaid credits on bill.jbnx.io.

12-month minimum
measured, not guessed

If the site does not make money, we should be able to say so.

Tracking is in from day one. Each month you get a short scorecard: what moved, what it cost, what it earned.

Search rankings

Google Search Console + rank tracking on the keywords your customers actually type. Position changes, month over month.

Bookings & leads

The booking system you already use, and the forms on the site — every appointment and inquiry counted.

Calls & clicks

Call-tracking numbers and click-to-call analytics tell you which page — and which ad — made the phone ring.

Ads you can check

Google and Meta ads with conversion tracking to the dollar: cost per lead, cost per booking, what to cut next month.

Free 10-point website & SEO audit

Already have a site? We'll run it through a 10-point check — speed, mobile, search basics, local listings, and what stops a visitor from calling — and send you the findings in plain English. Free. You can walk after you read it.

automation

If the same work happens every week, put it on a schedule.

Reports, follow-ups, data collection — the jobs that steal a morning. We can run those on your own hosting.

If your shop already knows the steps, we put them on a schedule. You don't babysit a spreadsheet at 11pm.

The same report, every week

If you already know the steps, they run on a schedule. You don't rebuild the sheet on Monday.

A written trail

What ran, when it ran, and what it sent. You can go back and look.

A meter on the hours

You see the minutes. Routine jobs stay cheap. The expensive ones only run when the job needs them.

A check before it goes out

A new send or a new number gets a check first. You don't wait on a review meeting.

Jobs overnight

Collect data, watch a site, send an alert. The work still happens when nobody is at the desk.

A test copy first

Changes go to a test site. The live site moves only after that copy is good.

pricing

Forty-nine a month. You pay for extra hours.

$49/mo — and every care dollar comes back as $49 of studio-time credit each month. Free mockup (1 concept + 1 revision). All work is studio time, metered on bill.jbnx.io. Client bills are private. A public demo log sits next to the demo site. Your year total with us — excluding pass-through fees — becomes included minutes at $60/hr ($1 = 1 minute). Unused minutes roll over.

Add-ons & platforms

Ask about Square

Free domain = standard .com-equivalent cost; premium TLDs are paid by you. SEO (on-page work, local listings, ongoing optimization) uses studio minutes — it draws from your monthly work credit, not on top of it. Large builds (AI features, overnight jobs, extra tracking, databases beyond a basic store) require consultation. Cancel any time. The domain is yours whenever you leave — we transfer it to your registrar account (you pay the registrar's transfer fee) and send you a full download of the site. After the 12-month minimum, hosting and email simply end at the close of the paid period. If you cancel before 12 months, hosting and email end at the close of the paid month; the domain and site download still transfer to you. Nonprofits and veteran-owned businesses: ask about our discount.

answers up front

The usual questions

Is the free mockup really free? What's the catch?

Really free — one concept and one revision. Fill out the intake form so we know the page type, the feel you want, and sites you like; that brief is what we design from. No invoice, no obligation. Extra design rounds after that use studio time.

What is studio time?

Studio time is the metered work on your site or app — updates, fixes, build, SEO, and setup beyond what's already included. It's billed at $60/hr by the minute on bill.jbnx.io. That log is private. A public demo is at bill.jbnx.io/public/demo next to jbnx.io/demo. Your year total with us (care + our add-ons, not pass-through fees) becomes included minutes: $1 = 1 minute. Unused minutes roll over. Extra time needs prepaid credits on bill.jbnx.io.

Is SEO included in $49/mo?

Care covers hosting, the certificate, and the domain we manage — and includes $49 of studio-time credit every month. SEO work — on-page changes, local listings, content for search, ongoing optimization — burns studio minutes from that included balance or prepaid credits.

Where does the site go live?

New sites go live on LocalFave.org first — yourname.localfave.org. That is the live site, not a draft. If you want a custom domain later, we attach it. Hosting stays the same either way.

Who owns the domain and the site?

We register and fully manage the domain and hosting while you're a customer — that's how launches and fixes stay fast. Whenever you cancel — early or after the 12-month minimum — a custom domain we registered transfers to you (you pay the registrar's transfer fee) and you get a full download of the website. If you never took a custom domain, you still get the download. Hosting and email end at the close of the paid period. Cancelling before 12 months ends hosting at the close of the paid month; it never means losing your domain or your site.

What's included in $49/mo?

Care for the live site: hosting, the certificate, and the domain we manage — plus $49 of studio-time credit (49 minutes) every month. Email forwarding is included; a real inbox is $5/mo per mailbox ($3/mo each when you have more than five). Studio minutes come from your year total — for example $49/mo care is $588 → 588 minutes in year one.

How do Shopify and Square work?

Shopify: your care plan plus Shopify's Basic rate as a pass-through (typically $29/mo billed yearly or $39/mo monthly — their price). That pass-through does not add studio minutes. Square: $100 setup on your Square seller account, plus studio time for the real work; we'll run a demo so you can see the minute cost before you commit.

What counts as a large / custom build?

Anything beyond a basic store or flat site that needs a consult first — for example AI features, overnight jobs, extra tracking, or databases that aren't a simple launch. We'll scope it before work starts.
