Nice to Meet You

I’m James, Founder of Monumental Web Design.

After nearly a decade building and optimizing websites for government agencies — and running my own e-commerce brand — I’ve learned what truly makes a site perform. I combine technical precision with real-world business insight to help small businesses grow through fast, custom-coded websites.

I’ve led UX and performance projects for the Department of Homeland Security and the Defense Intelligence Agency. Now, I bring that same level of craftsmanship to small businesses who deserve more than a template.

Every site I build is lightning-fast, SEO-ready, and designed to convert. If you’re ready for a website that works as hard as you do, I’d love to help.

Frequently Asked Questions

Four plans: Self-Serve at $69/mo, Growth at $160/mo (most popular), Scale at $317/mo, and Pro at $1,500/mo. Every plan includes a free custom website build — typically a $3,000–$6,000 value at a local agency.
View Pricing Plans

No setup fees and no one-time build costs. The custom website build is included with every plan. Extra pages beyond what your plan includes are $100 each, one-time, anytime.

Self-Serve ($69/mo) is built by us and run by you — 5 pages, you handle content edits yourself. Growth ($160/mo) adds 10 pages, 5 design edits/month, appointment booking, SEO setup, and analytics. Scale ($317/mo) adds 15 pages, monthly strategy calls, and email/SMS nurture flows. Pro ($1,500/mo) adds 25 pages, unlimited design edits, ad management, and monthly SEO management.
Compare Plans Side By Side

Both. Annual billing saves up to 21% on Growth, Scale, and Pro. Self-Serve is monthly only. You can switch billing cadence anytime.

Monthly plans cancel anytime — no fees, no questions. Your site stays live through the end of the paid period. Annual plans come with a 30-day money-back guarantee, and after that we offer a prorated refund based on months used at the monthly rate. We earn your business every month.

Yes. Your domain is yours. Your content is yours. Your site files are yours. If you ever leave, we hand everything over — no lock-in, no hostage situations.

Anytime. Upgrade instantly, downgrade at your next billing cycle. Most clients start on Self-Serve or Growth and move up as they grow.

No. Everything is clearly outlined up front. The only optional add-on costs are extra pages ($100 each) and a few specific add-ons listed on the pricing page. We always ask before charging for anything extra.
See Plan Pricing

We use Stripe for secure billing. ACH transfers (no fee) and credit cards (small processing fee) are both supported. Autopay can be set up in seconds.

If your payment method is declined, you'll receive an email with steps to fix the issue. There's a 5-day grace period, after which your site may be paused until payment is resolved.

Typically 1–2 weeks from kickoff to launch, depending on your content and feedback speed.

Absolutely. We collaborate with you on direction, branding, and revisions to make sure the final product feels like you.

Definitely. We can match your brand guidelines or design something new from scratch.

Every plan includes a free custom build, hosting, SSL, mobile-responsive design, a contact form, on-page SEO, 90+ PageSpeed score, LocalBusiness schema, and your editing dashboard. Self-Serve includes 5 pages, Growth 10, Scale 15, Pro 25. Extra pages are $100 each, one-time.
Full Plan Comparison

Yes. You'll receive design mockups or a prototype to approve before development starts. You'll know exactly what to expect throughout the whole process. No surprises.

This rarely happens because we collaborate closely with you from the start. But if it does, we'll work with you on revisions until you're happy. If we can't make you happy within 90 days, we'll refund you and go our separate ways.

We offer basic brand styling (colors, fonts, layout) and can lightly modify and optimize your existing logo. For full logo packages, we suggest finding a graphic designer.

We custom-code everything using modern HTML, CSS, and minimal JavaScript. No WordPress, no plugins, no security vulnerabilities from outdated third-party code.

Yes. Reach out to discuss your project — we'll scope it on a free strategy call.

Yes. If you have a specific web app in mind, book a strategy call and we'll discuss it.

No. All sites are hand-coded for speed, performance, and security. No templates, no slow builders, and no plugin updates or vulnerabilities to worry about.
More About Why We Do This

Custom code means better performance, cleaner SEO, fewer bugs, and no reliance on third-party plugins. You get a faster, more secure, longer-lasting site — without the maintenance headaches.
More About Why We Do This

Yes. We build around your business needs and can include whatever functionality your site requires.

Absolutely. We build flexible codebases that allow for future updates. Extra pages are $100 each, one-time. Content edits are self-serve on every plan; design edits are included on Growth (5/mo), Scale (10/mo), and Pro (unlimited).

Yes. We can embed or integrate most popular tools. We've worked with Mailchimp, Calendly, Jobber, Acuity, Setmore, Square Appointments, and more. If you're unsure about a specific tool, just ask.

Yes — every plan includes your editing dashboard. Update text and swap photos yourself, no coding required. For layout, color, or component changes, those are design edits, included on Growth (5/mo), Scale (10/mo), and Pro (unlimited).

Absolutely. Every site is fully responsive and tested across devices to ensure it looks and performs great on any screen size.

Yes. Every site launches with on-page SEO, LocalBusiness schema, and AI search optimization built in. Growth and above add Google Business Profile, Search Console, and Analytics setup. Pro includes ongoing monthly SEO management.

Page titles, meta descriptions, image alt text, proper heading structure, LocalBusiness schema, and Google integrations — all set up correctly on day one. Setup is included on every plan; ongoing optimization and content updates are part of Pro.

That's exactly what AI search optimization is designed for. We build with clean HTML, structured data, and LocalBusiness schema — the signals AI search engines use to understand and cite your business. Most small business sites are invisible to AI search. Yours won't be.

Most businesses see progress in 3–6 months. The more competitive your niche, the longer it may take. We'll be honest about timelines no matter who builds your site.

Yes — every site is submitted to Google. Growth and above include Google Search Console and Google Business Profile setup so you show up in local results.

Growth and above include a live analytics dashboard (traffic, leads, and rankings in one place) plus a monthly analytics report. Scale and Pro add quarterly competitor snapshots.

Email us at James@monumentalwebdesign.com. Most edits are turned around in 2 business days.

Email support: 2 business days on Self-Serve. Priority email and phone on Growth, Scale, and Pro: usually same-day during business hours.
