Not included on any tier
Honest about where the lines are. These aren't in any tier by default — some we can quote separately, some we'll point you to the right person for.
Paid ad management (Google, Meta, LinkedIn)
We'll set up tracking and conversion events for your ads, but we don't run the campaigns. Pair us with a media buyer if that's the goal.
Logo design or full brand identity
We work from your existing brand. If you need a logo or full identity system, we'll point you to a designer we trust.
Long-form copywriting / blog ghostwriting
Pro includes 1 post/mo as part of conversion work. Anything beyond that we'll quote separately or hand off to a copywriter.
E-commerce stores with large catalogs (50+ SKUs)
Stripe checkout for a few products is standard. Full storefronts with inventory, variants, and shipping logic are a custom scope — talk to us.
Photography or video production
We source stock or use what you provide. Custom shoots are out of scope but we can recommend local photographers.
Prefer to own outright?
Ownership — priced per site.
We build the site, hand you the full code repo, and you're on your own — or keep us on a Care Plan (from $149/mo, tiered by support level — see below). Because a 3-page site and a 30-page custom build aren't worth the same, we quote the buyout based on your site's scope (typically $5,000–$15,000), agree it before you sign, and lock it into your contract — so it never moves. Good fit for businesses that prefer to own their stack end-to-end, or agencies buying on behalf of clients.
- ✓Full code repo transferred to your GitHub
- ✓You own the hosting account, domain, everything
- ✓No subscription, no recurring fees
- ✓Optional Care Plans from $149/mo — tiered by support level
Already on a subscription?
You can convert to Ownership at any time — the buyout is priced per site and agreed upfront, written into your contract from day one. We transfer the repo, walk you through self-hosting setup, and you're out — clean break, no hard feelings. This option is in every subscription contract, not buried in fine print.
Care Plans
Own your code but don't want to maintain it yourself? Keep us on a Care Plan. Priced by how much support the site needs — a 30-page custom build and a 3-page brochure shouldn't cost the same.
Keep it alive and secure.
- ·Security patches + dependency updates
- ·Daily backups + uptime monitoring
- ·Break/fix bug support
Maintained and improving.
- ·Everything in Care Lite
- ·Up to 2 hours of content & design updates / month
- ·Priority 24-hour support
- ·Quarterly health review
A hands-on partner.
- ·Everything in Care Standard
- ·Up to 5 hours of work / month
- ·Monthly strategy check-in
- ·Ongoing SEO maintenance
Outside the standard tiers?
Custom — let's talk.
Some businesses need something the three tiers above don't cleanly fit — multi-region rollouts, complex e-commerce with large SKU catalogs, custom integrations beyond standard APIs, or in-house dev teams that want to embed us into their workflow. Tell us what you're working with and we'll scope it honestly.
- ·Free 30-minute scoping call
- ·Written quote within 3 business days
- ·No pressure — if we're not the right fit, we'll say so and point you elsewhere
Common custom asks
- · Storefronts with 50+ SKUs, variants, inventory
- · Multi-location service businesses with location-aware pages
- · Custom CMS work or content workflows
- · Integrations with industry-specific software (PMS, dental, legal, etc.)
- · Agencies looking for a dev partner on white-label work
What's included
No asterisks.
Here's exactly what the monthly fee covers and where the lines are drawn.
Hosting on our infrastructure
We host your site on Vercel under our account. You don't sign up for anything, pay no separate hosting bill, and get enterprise-grade uptime baked in.
SSL, backups, security updates
Standard on every tier. We patch dependencies monthly and monitor uptime 24/7.
Your domain stays yours
You own your domain on your own registrar. We just point it at the site. If you leave, you keep it.
Your data stays yours
Content, images, lead submissions, analytics — all exportable on request. You own everything you put into the site.
Usage overages: passed through at cost + 20%
If your site grows past free-tier thresholds (rare for SMBs — typically thousands of visitors/day), the extra cost is itemized on your invoice. We'll email you before any overage hits.
Pricing FAQ
Questions on cost, answered.
Why subscription instead of a one-time build?
Two reasons. One: it's cheaper to get started — you're not paying $5-15k upfront. Two: a website isn't "done" when it launches. It needs updates, security patches, new content, tweaks as your business grows. Subscription bundles all of that into one monthly number instead of emergency invoices every time something needs attention.
Do I own the code? What if I want to leave?
The source code stays with us — that's how subscription pricing works, same as Webflow, Squarespace, or Shopify. BUT: you own your domain, your content, your lead data, and your designs. At any time you can convert to Ownership — the buyout is priced per site (typically $5,000–$15,000), agreed upfront and locked in your contract — and we hand you the full code repo. Or you cancel and keep your last-deployed site live on your own hosting for 30 days while you migrate.
What if Orbit shuts down?
Written into every contract: if we ever wind down, we push your code to a GitHub account of your choice and give you 60 days of migration help. You are never stranded. No hostage situations.
What do I actually pay for — besides the monthly fee?
Your domain (~$15/year at GoDaddy, Namecheap, etc.) and nothing else for 99% of clients. We cover hosting, email sending, database, SSL, analytics, backups — it's all on our infrastructure. If your traffic or database usage outgrows free tiers (rare), we pass through the overage at cost + 20%, itemized on your invoice.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes, no contracts, no auto-renewal traps. Cancel and your site stays live for 30 days (grace period). After that it goes offline, and we keep your content exportable for 60 more days. Your domain, your lead data, your content — always yours.
What if I'd rather just own the whole thing outright?
Ownership is priced per site — typically $5,000–$15,000 depending on the site's size and complexity, agreed before you sign and locked into your contract so it never moves. You get the full code repo, no subscription, no ongoing fee. You're responsible for hosting it and maintaining it. If you'd rather not, you can keep us on a Care Plan — Lite ($149/mo), Standard ($299/mo), or Plus ($549/mo), priced by how much support the site needs. Good fit for agencies buying on behalf of clients, or businesses that prefer to own their stack.
Can I pay annually?
Yes — and you should if you can. Every tier gets two months free on annual: Starter is $399 setup + $1,490/yr (vs. $1,788 on monthly for the same 12 months), Business is $1,499 setup + $3,790/yr (vs. $4,548), Pro is $3,499 setup + $8,490/yr (vs. $10,188). Roughly 13% off across the board. Same setup fee either way, so no surprises on the first invoice.
What's actually different from Wix or Squarespace?
Real code (Next.js + Vercel), not a page builder. 3-5x faster page loads, better SEO, no monthly "upgrade your plan to remove our branding" nickel-and-diming, and the design isn't locked to someone else's template system — we customize as far as you want to take it. On the same monthly budget you get a site that actually performs.
Can I upgrade/downgrade tiers later?
Yes, anytime. Upgrade: prorated from the day you upgrade. Downgrade: takes effect at your next billing cycle.
Payment terms?
On monthly plans: setup fee paid when we kick off, first month of subscription starts when the site goes live, billed monthly via Stripe, cancel anytime. On annual plans: full year billed on kickoff (the annual commitment replaces the setup fee on Starter and Business), renews automatically 12 months later unless you cancel.
Do you work with clients outside of Minnesota?
Yes. Everything is remote — discovery calls over Zoom, async work after that. We're based in the Minneapolis metro area, and we work with clients across the US.
Not sure which tier fits?
Tell us about your business and we'll recommend the tier that makes sense. If we're honestly not the right fit, we'll say so.
