MOPHEUS CODE

I build hand-coded websites for small businesses anywhere in the US — no monthly fees, no leeching platforms, you own the code.

Now booking Q4 2026.

Mission

Mopheus Code gives small businesses a website they own — one cost, no subscriptions, no leeching platforms. Built to order, deployed in 2–3 weeks, supported by a real developer.

Vision A web where every small business is discoverable — and owns that presence the way it owns its physical brand: outright, lease-free, and forever.

Practice

  • Tailor-made sites, deployed in 2–3 weeks
  • One cost, no monthly fees, you own the code
  • Lighthouse 100, accessibility by default
  • SEO + AEO (online discoverability) — clean, semantic HTML that ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google can actually read instantly, not the bloated drag-and-drop code that page builders ship
  • From $500 — small businesses, US-wide  (see full pricing →)

What I build

Pick the path that matches where you are right now. Each one ends in a real conversation and a real quote.

Not sure what tier fits? Read the small business website cost guide — real 2026 pricing from $500, the 5-year TCO math vs. Squarespace and Wix, and what drives the price up (and what doesn't). On Squarespace and not sure if it's time to leave? The Squarespace vs hand-coded decision tree walks through who each is for and a 4-step tree that figures out which one fits your business. Want the full 47-item launch checklist (homepage + services + SEO + AEO + a11y + perf + legal)? The small business website checklist has every item, grouped by section, with a 5-step order of operations. Curious about llms.txt — the markdown file that gets your site cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI? There's a meta-AEO explainer for that. And the broader AEO playbook covers the 7 things every site needs to be cited by AI assistants. Per-industry guides — the same 6-things / 5-mistakes / 3-hand-coded-advantages framework, tuned for the trade: HVAC, plumbing, auto repair, landscaping, cleaning, vet, restaurants, and roofing. Each one walks through what a [trade] site needs in 2026, the common site types (and what they all get wrong), and the [city] + [trade] + [service] query cluster for local SEO + AEO.

01 — Start from zero

You don't have a site yet

Get a starting template you can edit, then we work together to make it your finished site.

Get a starting template → 02 — Escape the leech

You have a site, but it's costing you monthly

Squarespace, Wix, GoDaddy, Shopify — the kind that charges you forever for a site you don't own. I'll cut you over to a from-scratch version you own outright. One cost, then it's yours.

Plan a cut-over → 03 — Lift what's there

You have a site, but it's not pulling its weight

Front-end refresh, back-end rebuild, or SEO/AEO so you actually show up when people search. A targeted boost without a full rebuild.

Talk about a boost → 04 — Custom project

Custom tools, AI integrations, internal dashboards

I also build custom internal tools, AI integrations, and small platforms. Each project is scoped and priced individually.

Get a starting template

Get a starting template for YOUR site in 30 seconds →

Type in your business at the form. Get a starting template you can edit — add your photos, toggle features, re-roll the hero, swap the layout. Then we work together to refine the order, copy, and design into your finished site. The template is a head start, not the destination.
