Zero to One.

Zero to One is a campaign with one aim: get 25 businesses that have no website online, properly. Yours is built around what you actually do, at a fixed price, in about a week — and I handle every part of it, including writing the words.

Plenty of good businesses still have none. Usually not because they decided against one, but because it is one more thing to sort out and it never quite gets to the top of the list.

What you get.

The same list every time. That is what keeps it quick and keeps it $1,500 instead of five.

01

A website, with the pages you need

Built for your business, in your colours and with your photographs. It works properly on a phone, because that is where most of your customers will see it.

02

I write the words

We talk for half an hour about what you do, and I write the site from that. You do not have to sit down and compose anything — that is the step that stalls most websites for months.

03

The domain, hosting and security

Bought, set up and pointed at the right place. You never have to learn what any of those words mean. It is registered to you, not to me.

04

Findable on Google

Your Google Business Profile set up or cleaned up, so you turn up in the map when someone nearby searches for what you do. Usually this matters more than the website itself.

What it costs.

Two numbers, both of them the whole number. Nothing gets added later.

$1,500 Once, to build it and put it live
$50/mo To host it, keep it safe and keep it current
~1 week From our first call to being online
What the $50 covers
Hosting, the domain renewal, security updates, backups, and small changes when you need them — new opening hours, a price change, a few new photos. Email me and it gets done.
If you want to stop
Then stop. There is no minimum term. The domain is registered to you and I will hand over everything so you or anyone else can take it on. You will not be held anywhere by the paperwork.

How the week goes.

Four steps, and only the first one needs anything from you.

  1. A half-hour call

    You tell me what the business does, who your customers are, and what you want people to do when they find you. That is the only homework there is.

  2. I build it

    I write the words, put the site together, and send you a link to look at. Usually two or three days after the call.

  3. You tell me what is wrong

    One round of changes, and it needs to be honest — if a photo is bad or a sentence is not how you would say it, say so.

  4. It goes live

    Domain, hosting, Google, all handled. Then it is running and I keep it that way.

What is not in it.

Said out loud, because a fixed price only stays fixed if everyone knows where the edges are.

Not included

The things a fixed price cannot carry

A visual identity invented from scratch. The site is built for your business, but the look is not designed from nothing — that is a separate job at a separate price. Logos, branding and photography are not part of it either. If you have a logo I will use it; if you do not, the site works fine without one.

Possible, priced separately

Bigger things are still on the table

Taking payments, online ordering, a booking system, a customer login, something built around how your business actually runs — I do all of that. It is real work rather than a box to tick, so it is not part of the $1,500.

Tell me what you have in mind on the call and I will give you a proper number. Sometimes the answer is that you do not need it yet, and I will say that too.

From Zero to One

Shops, workshops and practices — places with a front door. Open any of them and see.

The first businesses are being set up now, and each one is listed here as it goes live. If you want yours to be among them, the form below is the whole application.

Tell me about the business.

A couple of sentences is plenty — what you do and roughly where. I will tell you whether Zero to One is right for you, and if it is not, what would be.

Three fields. No budget question — we can work that out on the call.

A paragraph is plenty. What the business does, and what you want to be true that is not true today.

I use what you send here to reply, and nothing else — you are not added to any list. Or email me directly at hesamrad.dev@gmail.com.
