What's included

Everything a local business needs online

  • Designed for phones first

    Most customers find you on their phone. Your site reads clearly and works smoothly there.

  • Hours, menu and services

    The things customers look for, easy to find: what you offer, prices, and when you're open.

  • Tap to call, map and directions

    One tap to call you, and clear directions to find you.

  • Fast and lightweight

    Hand-built pages with no bloat, so they load quickly even on a weak signal.

  • Your brand, your photos

    Your logo, colors and real photos, not a generic template.

  • Launch on your domain

    Help connecting your own web address, or choosing one if you don't have it yet.

Meet Kyle

One person, start to finish

Hi, I'm Kyle. I started Marine Layer Web to give local businesses a website that's simple, fast and truly theirs, without agency prices or confusing contracts.

I design and build every site myself. You talk to me directly from your first preview through launch, in plain English, with no account managers or handoffs.

FAQ

Common questions

Is the preview really free?

Yes. The preview costs nothing and you're under no obligation. You only pay if you love it and decide to launch.

How much does a website cost?

Starter Sites start at $599 as a one-time price. The first 5 businesses get the founding-client price of $349 in exchange for letting me feature their site. Larger sites are quoted individually.

Is the 30-second demo my real preview?

No. The demo is a quick sketch so you can picture the idea. Your real preview is designed by hand around your business, services and photos.

Are the example designs real businesses?

No. They're concept designs for fictional businesses, made to show different styles. Your site will be designed around your own business, brand and photos.

Can I update my site later?

Yes. Small updates are included in the optional $39/month Care Plan. Without it, changes are quoted as they come up.

What if I already have a domain name?

No problem. I'll connect your new site to the domain you already own, or help you choose one if you don't have it yet.

Do you only work in San Diego?

San Diego is home base, but I'm happy to build for local businesses anywhere.

Where can I read the full terms?

Everything about payment, revisions, ownership and the Care Plan is in our Terms of Service, in plain English.
