Why not Squarespace or Wix?
Fair question. Here’s the honest answer.
Squarespace and Wix are good tools. The catch is that word, “tools.” They hand you the keys and the work. You build it. You maintain it. You fight the editor every time a price changes or a new photo needs to go up. That’s the trade: a low monthly fee in exchange for your time and your headache.
Fixed Sites is the opposite trade. You don’t touch any of it. We build it custom, we run it, and when something needs to change you send one text and it’s live within two business days. You get a team, not a login.
What you’re actually choosing between
Squarespace or Wix
The toolA tool you operate yourself. Template-based design that looks like everyone else’s. You write the words, you make the updates, and you dig through the analytics if your plan even includes them. When something breaks, you get a generic help desk that walks you through fixing it yourself.
Fixed Sites
The teammateA custom site plus the team that runs it. We write it, build it, update it, watch your traffic, and tell you what the numbers actually mean. When you need a change, you send one text. It’s done.
Five things worth knowing before you build it yourself
Your time is the real price.
The cheap plan isn’t cheap. Every hour you spend wrestling a website builder is an hour you’re not running your business or home with your family. We do the work so you don’t have to. That’s the entire point of hiring us.
Their cheaper plans cap what you can do anyway.
On the lower Squarespace and Wix plans, custom code and the better design controls are locked behind more expensive tiers. So even if you wanted your site to look truly custom, the plan won’t let you without paying up first.
You’re paying for data you can’t see.
Real traffic and conversion numbers are gated to higher plans. A basic plan gives you basic numbers and not much else. We build traffic monitoring into every site, and more importantly, we read it for you and tell you what’s working and what isn’t.
DIY looks DIY.
Templates are templates, and your competitors are picking from the same handful. A custom build doesn’t look like anyone else’s, which matters a lot when looking like a professional is part of what you’re selling.
You own everything.
Your domain, your content, your site. If we ever part ways, you get a clean handoff of all of it. No hostages.
The bottom line
Squarespace and Wix are built for people who want to be their own webmaster. If that’s you, go for it. They’re solid.
If you’d rather run your business and hand the website to a team that already knows it inside and out, that’s what we do. Send us the site you’re tired of, or tell us you don’t have one yet. We’ll show you what yours could look like before you spend a dollar.
