Sell from your own site not from someone else's platform

No. A store belongs inside the website, sharing the same products, customers and checkout. Splitting them across two platforms is what creates the reconciliation work.

Your payment processor charges its standard card rate. Beyond that, a store should not carry a per-sale fee at all.

The design and the build cost nothing. You pay only the standard costs every website owner in the world pays: domain, hosting, software license. No design fee, and no cut of your sales.

Because design is not where a website's cost sits. Every website owner in the world pays for the same three things: a domain, hosting, and a software license. That is what you pay, and nothing more.

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.
