Choose the help you actually need

One clear place to start.

No website yet?

Start with a website build. A Starter Site suits one clear offer; Launch gives you room for separate services and an about page.

Compare builds

Your site needs attention?

Ask about care for an existing website. We review the platform and condition before confirming a plan or any migration work.

Ready to work on visibility?

Start with a useful website and a way to measure inquiries. Then agree an SEO scope around your customers and market.

Fair questions

The things every owner asks before signing anything. If yours isn't here, just ask.

Can I request changes whenever I need them?

Yes. Every care plan includes routine content updates with no monthly request quota. Hosted uses the standard work queue, Managed gets priority, and Partner gets first priority. New pages, redesigns and custom features are quoted separately. We confirm the scope and expected timing before work starts.

Do I have to sign a long contract?

Standard care plans are month-to-month with 30 days' notice. The optional Partner free-build offer and Managed half-price build offer each require 12 months. SEO starts with a three-month term, then becomes month-to-month. Your written estimate states the commitment before work starts.

Who owns the website and the domain?

You do, from day one. Your domain is registered in your name, not ours, and the design, content and files are yours outright. If you ever leave, we hand everything over, no export fee, no held domain.

What happens if I cancel?

Give 30 days' notice and we transfer your site files, domain and email wherever you're going. No exit fee. If you cancel inside a free-build commitment, you pay the remaining months or the standard build price, whichever is less.

How long does a build take?

Typical build timelines are about one week for Starter, two for Launch, three to four for Business and five to six for Store or Booking. Timing depends on the agreed scope, receiving your content and your approvals. We confirm a schedule in the estimate.

Couldn't I just use Wix or Squarespace?

Yes. A website builder can be a good fit if you want to design and maintain the site yourself. Compare the subscription, domain, email and any transaction fees, along with the time you can give it. happyllama is for owners who want someone to build it and stay available to help.

What if I need something that isn't listed?

That's Enterprise. If the request is outside the published builds, care plans or SEO retainers, we estimate it in writing before anything starts. Same person on the phone.

Not sure which tier?

Describe the business in one phone call and we'll tell you which package fits, including “none yet, wait six months,” if that's the honest answer.

Or write to Support@happyllama.net and we will get in touch.
