Paying
How ownership and discounts work
How much does a website cost?
Path 1, Pay Once. You own the site from the day you pay. No monthly fees from us. No hosting fee from us. Hosted on your own free account, which we set up. The site files are yours once paid. TTA registers and pays for your domain in year one, finishes setup, then transfers it into your name after launch. Renewals after year one are about $10–20/yr, paid by you. Care $99/mo is optional.
- One-page site: $599 once. Get started
- Multi-page site: $1,499 once. Get started
Path 2, $0 Down. Monthly plans. No hosting fee from us. The site and domain stay with TTA until the site is paid off or you pay the buyout; then both transfer to you within 7 days of payoff. You own the site after 12 payments. 6-month minimum, then month to month.
- Starter: $199/mo (one-page site, 5 edits a month). Get startedStarter website plan: 1 page. $0 down, billed monthly. Setup waived. 6-month minimum, then month-to-month with 30 days' notice. You own the site after 12 paid months. TTA holds the domain until your site is paid off; it transfers to you within 7 days of payoff. 30-day refund of all monthly fees paid.
- Visibility: $399/mo
- Lead Engine: $599/mo
- Growth Engine: $899/mo
Which plan do most businesses pick?
Lead Engine ($599/mo) adds the AI chatbot, booking, and missed-call text-back. Text-back turns on once your business number's texting registration is approved, usually 1-3 weeks. If you mostly want more calls, Visibility ($399/mo) covers a multi-page site, monthly Google Business Profile management, local SEO and AI search optimization. Smaller budget? Starter is $199/mo and includes Google Business Profile setup.
What is Growth Engine?
Growth Engine is $899/mo: everything in Lead Engine (including missed-call text-back) plus email and text campaigns (including a VIP list), social posts from your job photos (up to 8 a month), one back-office tool of your choice (quotes, invoices and pay links (pay links need payment setup), or maintenance plan signups), and one free custom page.
Is there a setup fee?
No. Every plan is $0 down with setup waived.
Is $199/mo too cheap? Who builds it?
TTA Web Dev in Thornton, Colorado builds the site. Starter is $199/mo. Monthly plans have a 6-month minimum, then month-to-month with 30 days' notice.
Do you offer missed-call text-back?
Yes. Missed-call text-back is included on Lead Engine and above (Lead Engine and Growth Engine); it is not sold by itself, but for a website you already have it is part of Lead Catcher ($149/mo + $299 setup), with AI chat. It turns on once your business number's carrier texting registration is approved, usually 1-3 weeks. It does not turn on immediately.
What is Local SEO Advantage?
Local SEO Advantage is $399/mo for a business keeping its own site, including Care clients. Care does not discount it. It is SEO work, not a new website. It includes weekly Google Business Profile posts, up to 20 review replies a month (more is quoted), 2 unique city or service pages a month, technical fixes (titles, schema, mobile and speed basics, broken links and forms), a monthly results report, and Google profile setup once in month 1. Lead Engine and Growth Engine already include this work. It has a 6-month minimum, then month-to-month with 30 days' notice. If you leave before month 6, the remaining months of the 6-month minimum are due. 30-day refund of monthly fees. We do not guarantee rankings. The month-12 20% off on website plans does not apply. Pay-once clients get 20% off any website plan for the first 12 months. SEO plans are not discounted. See the catalog.
Can I pay for the year upfront?
Yes. Pay a year upfront and save 10%, one payment: Starter $2,149.20, Visibility $4,309.20, Lead Engine $6,469.20, Growth Engine $9,709.20. Ownership transfers as soon as the year is paid in full. Prepay is refundable only before the build starts.
Referral credit
Do you have a referral credit?
When a business you refer makes their first payment, you get $100 off your next month or $100 off the $599 one-page site. One credit per referred business, applied after they first pay.
When does the referral credit show up?
After the business you referred makes their first payment. We apply the $100 credit to your next monthly bill, or off a $599 one-page site. If you have questions about timing, email tta.dev.web@gmail.com or call (720) 679-8531.
How ownership and discounts work
- Pay once: you own the site the day you pay. TTA registers and pays for your domain in year one, finishes setup, then transfers it into your name after launch.
- Monthly plan: after 12 paid monthly payments, the site transfers to you. TTA holds the domain until your site is paid off; it transfers to you within 7 days of payoff. After the 6-month minimum you can leave early with a set buyout.
Exact buyout amounts
One-page site: $299.50 at month 6, $149.75 at month 9. Multi-page site: $749.50 at month 6, $374.75 at month 9. $0 after 12 payments.
- Yearly prepay: pay 12 months up front and save 10%. The site transfers as soon as the year is paid in full.
- After month 12: 20% off your website plan, on monthly billing or an annual renewal. It isn't combined with the 10% prepay.
- Paid once for your site, then add a plan: 20% off any website plan for its first 12 months. This doesn't combine with the 10% prepay.
- Discounts don't stack. If more than one applies, you get the bigger one.
- Not discounted: Local SEO Advantage and Care. The discounts above apply only to the four website plans (Starter, Visibility, Lead Engine, Growth Engine).
- Vendor fees: We cover vendor setup fees with a first-month credit. Ongoing vendor fees are paid separately and aren't included in plan prices. On $0-down monthly plans, TTA registers and pays for your domain in year one and holds it until your site is paid off; it transfers to you within 7 days of payoff. Renewals after year one are paid separately. Pay-once sites: TTA registers and pays for your domain in year one, finishes setup, then transfers it into your name after launch. Care and Local SEO Advantage clients bring their own domain. TTA is still $0 down with no TTA setup fee.

Owning your site
Do I own the site?
Yes. On Path 1 it's yours from day one. On Path 2: Stay for 12 months, and the site is 100% yours to keep, host anywhere, or manage yourself. Need to leave early? After the 6-month minimum, a set buyout lets you take it with you. TTA holds the domain until your site is paid off; it transfers to you within 7 days of payoff.
Exact buyout amounts
Monthly payments earn credit toward owning your site. One-page site: $599 value, $49.92 credit per payment; buyout $299.50 at month 6, $149.75 at month 9, $0 after 12 payments. Multi-page site (Visibility, Lead Engine, Growth Engine): $1,499 value, $124.92 credit per payment; buyout $749.50 at month 6, $374.75 at month 9, $0 after 12 payments. The buyout opens only after the 6-month minimum.

No surprises: who owns the site?
Monthly plans: the site and domain stay with TTA until the site is paid off or you pay the buyout; then both transfer to you within 7 days of payoff. Pay once: you own the site from the day you pay. TTA registers and pays for your domain in year one, finishes setup, then transfers it into your name after launch. Care and Local SEO Advantage clients keep their own site and domain.
If you cancel
If you cancel: monthly plans have a 6-month minimum, then month-to-month with 30 days' notice. If you cancel before your site is paid off, the site and domain stay with TTA unless you pay the buyout. Once it's yours, both transfer to you within 7 days of payoff. Care and Local SEO Advantage clients keep their own site and domain. Plan tools (chatbot, booking, campaigns, and the rest) stop. If you leave before month 6, the remaining months of the 6-month minimum are due. Care ($99/mo) is optional; cancel Care with 30 days' notice. Local SEO Advantage ($399/mo) follows this same minimum and notice. It is SEO work on a site you already have, not a new website. Refund terms.
What if I cancel in month 4?
If you cancel in month 4: monthly plans have a 6-month minimum, then month-to-month with 30 days' notice. If you leave before month 6, the remaining months of the 6-month minimum are due. If you cancel before your site is paid off, the site and domain stay with TTA unless you pay the buyout. Once it's yours, both transfer to you within 7 days of payoff.
Is there a contract or minimum?
Path 2 plans have a 6-month minimum, then they're month to month. After the minimum you can buy the site out early. 30-day refund of all monthly fees paid. If you get a refund, the site goes offline. Prepay and pay-once are refundable only before the build starts. Third-party domain fees are not refunded.
Who registers the domain?
On $0-down monthly plans, TTA registers and pays for your domain in year one and holds it until your site is paid off; it transfers to you within 7 days of payoff. Renewals after year one are paid separately. Pay-once sites: TTA registers and pays for your domain in year one, finishes setup, then transfers it into your name after launch. Care and Local SEO Advantage: you bring your own domain. Renewals after year one are about $10–20/yr at registrar cost, paid separately.
Getting started
Is the mockup really free?
Yes. We send a free mockup within one business day. You pay only after you approve the preview.
How soon is the site live?
One-page and Starter sites go live within 48 hours once you've paid and sent anything we need from you. The clock starts when we have both your payment and what we need from you: the approved preview, any logo, photos, or content you are sending, and access to your domain if you already have one. If we're waiting on you, the clock pauses. Domain or DNS changes on your side, and Google's review of a Business Profile, are not part of those 48 hours.
Do you set up a Google Business Profile?
Yes. Google Business Profile setup is included on the $599 one-page site and on Starter ($199/mo). We build it, you verify with Google, you own it, and we stay on as Manager. Visibility ($399/mo) and up add monthly profile management. Google's review can take a few days and is not part of the 48-hour go-live clock.
I already have a website. Can you help?
Yes. Keep it until the new one beats it; we build a free mockup first so you can compare. If you'd rather keep owning your own site, site-owner Care starts at $99/mo. To catch more leads on the site you have, Lead Catcher is $149/mo + $299 setup.
What is Lead Catcher?
Lead Catcher is $149/mo plus a $299 one-time setup, for a business that already has a website. It is not a new website. We add it to your existing site with a small embed code. It includes an AI website chat that answers customer questions from your business facts and captures their name and number; missed-call text-back; an automatic reply to your website form; after-hours lead capture; and a daily lead summary for the owner. Text-back turns on once your business number's texting registration is approved, usually 1-3 weeks. The carrier registration fees are included in the $299 setup. Ongoing texting and AI vendor fees are paid separately; see the catalog. Already included in Lead Engine and Growth Engine, so plan clients are not charged twice.
I'm locked into a contract with someone else. How do I switch?
Check your contract's end date and its cancellation terms. TTA can build the new site ahead of time and help point your domain once you control it.
Do you need my passwords?
No. Never send passwords. We'll ask you to add us as a user or manager on your accounts.
