The $500 Website Myth
We hear it all the time: “My cousin Larry can build me a website for $500.”
And you know what? Larry probably can. He will install a free WordPress theme, upload your logo, and hit publish.
But six months later, when the site has been hacked, the contact form is broken, and it takes 12 seconds to load on a phone, Larry won’t be there to fix it.
At WebGlo, we are not the cheapest option. We are expensive on purpose.
Where Does the Money Go?
When you invest in a WebGlo project, you aren’t just paying for code. You are paying for a digital asset designed to generate revenue.
Here is the breakdown of a typical project:
1. Strategy & Discovery (20%)
We don’t write a single line of code until we understand your business. Who is your customer? What is your margin? What is the primary call-to-action? We build a Sales Funnel, not just a brochure.
2. Design & UX (30%)
We don’t use templates. Every pixel is designed for your brand. We study user behavior to ensure that the navigation is intuitive and the “Buy Now” button is exactly where the thumb naturally falls.
3. Development & Performance (30%)
This is the engine room. We hand-code our sites using modern static site generators.
- No Bloat: We don’t use heavy plugins.
- Speed: We aim for 100/100 Google PageSpeed scores.
- Security: Our sites are hosted on enterprise-grade CDNs like Cloudflare, making them virtually unhackable.
4. QA & Launch (20%)
We test your site on iPhones, Androids, tablets, and desktops. We test it on slow 3G connections. We ensure that when we flip the switch, everything works perfectly.
Expense vs. Investment
A $500 website that generates $0 in new business is a $500 expense.
A $10,000 website that generates $100,000 in new business is a 10x investment.
We don’t build expenses. We build investments.
