THE OWNERSHIP QUESTION
A site you cannot change is not really yours
The question people type into Google is whether they own the output. The more useful question is what you can actually do with it: change it, move it elsewhere, and take your customers with you.
THE DETAIL
What is true and what is quietly not
Start with the address
If the site lives on a subdomain of theirs, the audience you build belongs to that address, not to you.
Can you change it without them?
A price, a photo, opening hours. If that needs a support ticket or a prompt, you are renting.
Can you take it with you?
Ask before you commit: does the design travel, or does leaving mean starting the layout again from nothing?
Who holds the customer list?
The most valuable thing a site produces. Whoever can export it is the one who really owns it.
Whose account is it in?
The domain, the payment account and the analytics should be registered to you, not to whoever built it.
How we do it
Your domain, your content, your customer list, and a visual editor so changing it never needs us.
HOW WE DO IT
Three steps, built for you
Tell us about the business
What you sell, who buys it, how the money actually arrives.
A designer builds it
A person lays out the site and wires the store, bookings and chat behind it.
You commit to it
We text you the design quote and the monthly cost before you commit to anything.
QUESTIONS
Before you ask
Broadly you can use it, and the terms vary by tool, so read them. The sharper question is whether you can edit and move it, because a page you cannot change is not an asset you control.
Some tools allow an export, many do not, and an export that produces unusable markup is not really portable. Ask before you build a business on it.
The domain is registered to you, the content is yours, and the customer list is yours.
Your site is created by top Instinctor designers (Instinctor is a design awards nominee) for a one-time fee from $100, or from $200 for an online store or restaurant. We text you the design quote and the monthly cost before you commit to anything. No setup fee, no per-booking fees, no cut of your payments.
It is $35 a month and it is optional. It covers the ongoing work of being found: position checks, content that answers what people are actually searching for, and the profile and technical work behind it. Every action is performed by hand, not by a tool. Two of the sites we manage reached the first page of Google within a few months.
Yes. You see the completed website, built with your own content and your own photographs, before anything is published. Nothing goes live until you have looked at it and said so.
