Why SM Code Forge
A Better Website Starts With Understanding Your Business.
Before we build anything, we want to understand your business, what you offer, and what you want your website to do for you.
You'll work directly with the person designing and building your site, so nothing gets lost between salespeople, account managers, and developers. Just straightforward communication and a website built around your business.

Our Work Doesn't
Have to Look Like It.
SM Code Forge is building our portfolio right now. That means we're offering custom small-business websites for $700–$900 while we establish ourselves and work with our first clients.
You get a professional custom website. We get the opportunity to build something we're proud to put our name on.
No discounts on quality. Just fair pricing while we're getting started.
Introductory Website Pricing
Want us to handle hosting and maintenance? We can. Prefer to host it somewhere else? That's fine too.
Your website isn't locked to our hosting.
Plan a clear service website and inquiry process
For an Austin business offering several services, start with the questions a visitor must answer before making contact: what you do, where you work, and how to request the next step. Give each distinct service enough explanation without creating repetitive location pages.
Bring your service list, existing site, and any search or inquiry data. We can use that information to distinguish content worth retaining from pages that need a clearer purpose.
Questions from Austin business owners
Do you serve businesses in Austin?
Yes. Austin is in our Austin-area service coverage. This page describes where we offer services; it does not represent a separate office or a completed local project.
What are the website pricing options?
Forge Starter is $150/month with $0 down and a 12-month minimum. Premium Custom Website projects start at $1,700. Both website offers cover five pages; additional scope is quoted separately.
How is the schedule determined?
We agree on the timeline after reviewing scope, content readiness, and integration needs. Bring your desired launch date to the initial conversation.
Can you guarantee rankings or inquiries?
No. We implement useful content and technical SEO foundations, but search visibility and lead volume depend on factors beyond the website build.
