Your website is quietly costing you customers.

53% of visitors leave a site that takes over 3 seconds to load (Google research). Slow load times, "Not Secure" warnings, broken images, a ©2019 footer — they're losing you bookings right now. We can fix the most common ones in 3 days, starting at $297.

What we usually find

The small things, quietly hurting business.

Most owners don't know these problems exist until they cost them. Here are the three we see every single day.

"Not Secure" in the browser

A missing SSL certificate makes Chrome warn every visitor before they reach you. Over half leave on the spot. A 30-minute fix at the host level.

Broken images & dead links

Photos that don't load, menu PDFs that 404, contact buttons that go nowhere. Each one signals "this place doesn't care" — and people remember.

©2019 in the footer

A stale copyright tells visitors "maybe they're closed." Combined with a slow load time, you've lost the booking before they even read the menu.

Plain pricing · No surprises

Pick what fits.

Every tier comes with our 7-day money-back guarantee. If we don't deliver what we promised, you don't pay.

How it works

Three steps. No calls required.

Everything happens by email so you can answer when it works for you — not when a sales rep is free.

Examples of what we do

A taste of the work.

Two concept rebuilds showing how a typical small-business site transforms with a few days of focused work. Real client examples coming soon.

Mark Reed, founder of The Simple Web Studio

Hi, I'm Mark.

I started Simple Web Studio because every week I'd walk past a great local spot — and find a website actively driving customers away. Most of these are short fixes. Owners just don't have time. So I do.

You talk to me, I do the work. No agency layers, no upsells. I use modern AI tooling to ship in days what agencies quote in months, and pass the savings to you.

— Mark Reed, Austin

7-day Money-back

If we don't deliver, you don't pay.

You have a full week after delivery to look it over. If we didn't fix what we promised — or you're just not happy — reply "refund" and we send back every dollar. No questions, no calls, no awkward back-and-forth.

Common questions

The honest answers.

If yours isn't here, send it in the form below and we'll answer the same day.

How do I know what's actually wrong with my site?

You don't have to. Tell us what you've noticed in plain English ("looks broken on phones," "Google says it's not secure," "people say they can't find our menu"). We do a free audit within 24 hours and tell you exactly what's happening and which tier fits — no obligation.

Do I have to throw out my current website?

Almost never. Quick Fix and Single Page Rebuild work inside whatever you're already using — Wix, Squarespace, WordPress, GoDaddy, custom. We only rebuild from scratch if your current setup genuinely can't be saved, and we'll tell you upfront if that's the case.

How do payments work?

After the audit, we send a Stripe link for the agreed tier. No retainers, no contracts, no auto-charges except for the monthly fee on Full Website and Premium Care tiers — which you can cancel any time.

What if I'm not technical at all?

That's most of our clients. You don't need to know what SSL is or how DNS works — that's our job. We handle everything on the back end and only ask you what we genuinely need (logo, photos, opening hours, etc.).

Are you actually based in Austin?

Yes. The studio is in Austin, TX. We work with clients across the US though — everything happens by email, so location doesn't matter for the work itself.

What's actually included in a care plan?

Lite Care ($27/mo) covers the everyday stuff — text changes, photo swaps, broken link fixes, hours/menu updates, new staff bios. Whenever you need them, with a 48-hour response time. Standard Care (included with Full Website) adds one substantial improvement each month — a rebuilt section, new feature, or content overhaul. Premium Care is unlimited plus SEO. No counting fixes, no nickel-and-diming. Fair use applies, but in practice nobody hits a cap.

What if my problem isn't on the list above?

Mention it in the form. We've seen pretty much everything — abandoned domain names, Wix sites stuck on free tiers, Google Business listings competing with the real site, broken booking embeds. If we can fix it, we will. If we can't, we'll tell you who can.
