If this is you

Outgrown DIY.

You started with Wix, Squarespace, or a builder a friend recommended. It worked for a while. Now the business has outgrown what you can keep up with on a Sunday afternoon.

If this is you

Outgrown freelancers.

The last contractor took two weeks to swap a phone number. The one before that ghosted halfway through a redesign. You’re done chasing people who treat your website like a side project.

If this is you

Outgrown patchwork.

One vendor hosts. Another writes blog posts. A third manages your Google listing. Nobody talks to anybody. You spend more time coordinating them than running the business.

Build & care.
One subscription.

Replaces the host, the security plugin, the freelancer, and the agency. One organized team builds your site, launches it, and keeps it perfect — while you stop being the project manager.

What’s included

A professionally built website

Designed and built by our team in WordPress. Mobile-optimized, fast, accessible, and on-brand.

Hosting, SSL, and security

A platform tuned for WordPress with SSL and 24/7 monitoring included. No separate host to manage.

Weekly updates & nightly backups

Plugin, theme, and core updates handled. Off-site backups every night so a bad update never takes you offline.

Unlimited update requests

Text edits, image swaps, new pages, blog uploads, layout tweaks. Submit as many as you want. We work them one at a time.

Most requests done in 24–48 hrs

Larger requests may take a business week. You’ll always know where your request sits in the queue.

SEO & analytics setup

On-page SEO basics, page-speed optimization, analytics tracking. Set up cleanly from day one.

Forms & lead capture

Contact and lead forms set up, routed to where you’ll actually see them, and tested so they deliver.

One organized place for everything

Submit requests, share files, see status. No more chasing freelancers across email, texts, and DMs.

Add-on subscriptions available as you grow: Google Business Profile management, review growth, blog/SEO content, email marketing.

How unlimited
requests actually work.

Submit unlimited website update requests. NorthMac handles them one request at a time. Most requests are completed within 24 to 48 hours. Larger ones may take up to one business week.

In scope

Yes.

Text and image edits, page and section updates, blog uploads, layout tweaks, forms, hours and contact info, staff changes, fixing typos and broken links, plugin tweaks, simple new pages and sections.

The rule

One at a time.

Send as many requests as you want. We work them one at a time, in order. You always see what’s active, what’s next, and when it’ll be done.

Advanced services

Bigger projects.

Branding, complex integrations, custom apps, large e-commerce, courses, booking platforms — we take these on as custom engagements. Starting with one? Reach out first.

What happens
after you hit send.

No meetings required, no chasing us down, no “any update?” emails. Submit a request, we take action and send it to you for review, then we make it live with your approval. All within 48 hours.

01

You send it.

From the Website Request Hub or by email. Tell us the page, what should change, and whether to publish or preview first.

02

We pick it up.

Your request lands in the queue and the team starts work. If anything’s unclear, we’ll reach out.

03

We do the work.

Most updates done in 24–48 hours. Larger ones up to a business week. QA’d on desktop and mobile before it goes live.

04

You get the link.

Quick note with what changed and where to see it. Next request in the queue moves up. No status meeting needed.

One active request at a time. Send as many as you want — we work them in order. Truly broken stuff (a form down, payment failing) skips the line.

7
BUSINESS
DAYS
Live within 7 business days or your next 3 months are free.

Once your onboarding form and required materials are complete, your website goes live within 7 business days. If we miss that, your next 3 months of subscription are on us.

  • The 7-business-day clock starts after required onboarding materials are complete.
  • Client delays — missing assets, missing access, or pending approvals — pause the clock.
  • Applies to the initial managed website launch, not future update requests.
  • Larger custom requests, advanced integrations, and out-of-scope work are not part of the standard guarantee.

How onboarding works.

No long discovery process. No proposals to negotiate. A clean three-step start that takes you from signup to a live website in as little as 7 business days once we have what we need.

01

Start your build.

Click Start, pick how you want to pay, complete checkout with the $47 activation, and your subscription kicks off. You’ll immediately get your onboarding form and the link to your NorthMac workspace.

02

Send us what we need.

Complete the onboarding form: brand basics, service info, any existing content, what your customers should do on your site. Upload assets in one place. We’ll tell you exactly what we need so nothing slips through the cracks.

03

Your site goes live.

Within 7 business days of onboarding completion, your site is live. From there, your monthly subscription handles hosting, updates, security, and your ongoing request queue.

$47 today and
your build is in motion.

Your $47 first month starts the subscription, opens your customer portal, and gets the build queue moving the same day. Your first month is $47. Beginning with month two, the regular $397 monthly rate applies. Cancel anytime from your dashboard.

Common questions.

The questions every owner asks before signing up.

What if I already have a website?

Every subscription includes a brand-new site, built in our framework so we can manage it cleanly going forward. During onboarding you can share your current URL and tell us what’s working and what isn’t — we’ll fold that into the new build. Your onboarding form is the source of truth.

What counts as a website request?

Anything in the “included” list above. If a request is borderline or out of scope, we’ll tell you up front and either quote it or route you to an add-on. We never silently miss the boundary.

What happens if I cancel?

Cancellation ends the managed service. Your site stays online through the end of your current billing period, then comes offline cleanly. NorthMac doesn’t transfer sites to outside hosts — every site we run is part of the subscription, not a separate product. If you ever decide to move on, take screenshots or copy your content before cancellation. Full detail in our subscription terms.

Are there long-term contracts?

No. The subscription is month-to-month. Cancel any time from your customer dashboard and the managed service ends at the next billing cycle. The $47 activation is a one-time start fee, not a contract.

Do you do SEO and ads?

Basic SEO setup is included in the subscription. Ongoing SEO campaigns and content strategy are separate add-on subscriptions when you’re ready. We’ll never charge for them quietly.

Who actually does the work?

Steve Schramm and the NorthMac team. Over a decade of WordPress sites for small businesses. No junior account managers between you and the work.

Steve Schramm, founder of NorthMac Services

Hey,From Steve, the founder

If your business has outgrown DIY websites and freelancer roulette, you’re who we built NorthMac for. We’re not the cheapest. We’re also not a custom agency. We’re the most organized, lowest-chaos way to keep a real business website handled month after month.

The promise is simple. You start your subscription. We build, host, update, and manage your website. You submit requests in one organized place. We handle them one at a time. You stop thinking about your website.

If that sounds like the thing you’ve been looking for, click Start and let’s go. If it’s not, no hard feelings. We’re not for everyone, and that’s the point.

Talk soon, Steve Schramm
