When a site is not needed
If social media is enough — I will say so plainly and will not take the project.

Websites for small ventures
My name is Vitālijs Pankovs. I take on few projects — which is why I do the work myself, from the first letter to launch, and answer you myself too.
I name the price and the date before the work starts. Two sites are already done, and both can be opened and looked at.

The price and the delivery time in the price list, on the service page and in the letter are the same. They come from one place, so they cannot disagree.
Most often — «Landing»
200 €5 working daysOne page, one goal: a launch, a campaign or a test of an idea. What is included and what is not is below, in full and at one type size. There is no «details on request» list here.
With a credit in the footer — 180 €.You choose in the brief.

- Half on estimate approval, half on delivery
WorkBoth open right now
There are two. I show both in full.
Not a reel of best fragments and not pictures on a MacBook — two live sites you can open, poke from a phone and measure yourself.
What the price is made of
Not the number of pages. Four things: how many decisions have to be made, how many screens have to be drawn, how much copy has to be written and how many rounds of revision we allow for.
Each of them is a separate priced line in the price list. Which is why the estimate you receive is made of lines, not of a single «turnkey» figure.
What 200 € covers and what it does not
Both halves in one list and at one weight — because «not included» is half the description of the product, not a warning in small print.
Every line below is in the price list with its own price. Nothing you did not choose will appear on the invoice.
- Scopeincludednot included
- One page, up to four sections
- Responsive for phone, tablet and desktop
- One enquiry form
- One language
- One round of revisions
- Domain connection and launch
- Content migration from an old site
- A second round of revisions
- A second language
- Markup beyond four sections
What if we already have a social media page?
Then you have a shop window you do not control and which does not open in search. The network decides who sees your post; a tender committee, a bank and a new partner ask for a link to a site, not to a profile.
A site is not needed instead of social media — it is needed so that you have an address that belongs to you.
Four steps, and at each one you say yes or no
Brief
1 working day
You write what you need. I ask clarifying questions — usually not many.
Estimate and date
1 working day
A fixed price, a fixed delivery date, and a list of what is and is not included.
Until you agree, the work has not started.
Build
The time from the price list
With gates: structure and copy, then the visual, then the markup.
At every gate you approve or amend.
Delivery
On the delivery day
Accessibility and speed checks, handover of access.
A site has to be kept alive. That is a separate product with a separate price.
Hosting, the certificate, backups, updates and small edits. The tiers, what each includes, and the termination terms are on a page of their own, not in small print.
What the terms say
- No contract. Cancel in any month.
- The domain is registered to you.
- The code and the data are yours — I export them on first request.
- If you leave, I hand everything over free of charge.
- The price rises by no more than 5% a year, and never without 30 days' notice.
- After you leave I keep your backups for six months, then delete them.
The questions everyone asks
And if you disappear?
Half on estimate approval, half on delivery. The domain is registered to you, not to me. Access to hosting and to the repository is handed over on the delivery day. If I vanish, you lose half the cost, not the site.
Who owns the site?
You do. The domain, the code and the data are yours. Hosting is a service I operate; I export everything on first request, free of charge.
And if I do not like it?
A round of revisions is included in the price. If the result still does not suit you after it, you pay for what was done and take the sources. I do not hold work hostage.
Will I be able to change the copy myself?
I show you how at delivery: where the text lives, what you can change safely and what is better left alone. If you plan to edit often, say so in the brief — it changes how I build the pages, and that has to be decided before the build, not after.
Tell me what you need
I will reply with a fixed price and a fixed date. No commitment — until you agree, the work has not started.
VAT not applicable — the price in the price list is final.
