Website design and management in Northeast Florida

We design and manage websites a phone can load and a search engine can classify. We are based in St. Augustine and Jacksonville, and we build for clients anywhere in the United States.

Discovery before the build

We start with a discovery conversation. We talk with the people who touch the work: the person who sells, the person who delivers, and the person who lives with the handoff. We want to understand the current process and where it should be simpler.

If the inquiry dies between marketing and sales, a new homepage won't fix it. We build the site, the form, and the CRM to the process we agree on after those conversations.

The site has to do a job

We start with the action you need: a call, a direct booking, a quote, a donor conversation, or a waitlist. The layout and the first screen make that action obvious on a phone.

Most of the sites we ship are code. We can put real calculators, member areas, and markup in a codebase and keep them intact. Updates are a managed service. We are not promising that everyone on staff will enjoy a block editor.

What management actually covers

Management means the site keeps working after launch: content changes, new service or city pages, broken-link checks, sitemap updates, and the schema that describes the business. Hosting is part of the conversation. We build new sites in Cursor on Next.js. St. Johns County Living and Itinerant Man already run on Next.js. Earlier projects list their tools on the case study.

If you need a staff login, say so at the start. Barry Dunaway’s site includes an admin for covers, gallery, and pre-orders. A typical five-page marketing site doesn't, unless we add one.

St. Augustine, Jacksonville, and farther out

We meet in person in Northeast Florida: St. Augustine, St. Johns County, Jacksonville, Duval County, Ponte Vedra, Nocatee, and Fernandina, and more broadly in Florida and on the East Coast. We do not have a storefront in each of those towns. We are also in San Mateo, California, so we can meet in Silicon Valley. We take contract roles at a large organization. We can still work remotely with clients elsewhere.

The footer line we plan for client sites is plain: the industry, then “Website Design and Management,” then the studio name. Those lines aren't on the client sites yet.

How the work proceeds

  1. 01

    Discovery consultation

    We talk with sales, delivery, and whoever owns the handoff. One person's version usually misses a step.

  2. 02

    Optimize the process

    We agree what should be simpler before pages exist. A stalled inquiry is a process problem. A new homepage won't fix it.

  3. 03

    Build to that process

    We write the site, the form, and the next step in Cursor on Next.js to match the process we agreed on.

  4. 04

    Manage what shipped

    Content, new pages, and the search files stay current after launch when management is part of the engagement.

Questions

How much does a website cost?

The Small Business Package is published: Starter $249 a month, Core $549, Growth $899, plus setup. SMS is extra. A custom tool or a larger build is still quoted after we talk. Call 650-393-3378 or use the contact page.

How long does a build take?

Discovery comes first: conversations across the organization and a look at the process. A focused marketing site often moves in weeks after that, once the offer, proof, and pages are clear. City pages, calculators, membership, and video automation take longer. You get a range before we start. We do not promise same-day.

Do you handle hosting and updates?

Yes, when that's part of the engagement. Hosting, edits, and the search files (sitemap, robots, llms.txt, schema) can stay with Dashworth. We agree the arrangement per project. Nothing on this page renews itself.

Can the site be edited without Dashworth?

Sometimes. If the project includes an admin, you can change what that admin exposes. On a lot of marketing sites we do the updates under a management agreement. Tell Dashworth which you want before the build.
