A web studio.
We build websites and apps. Hours go on your bill. Free homepage mockup in 48 hours: one concept, one revision. What that includes.
Hosting and the domain stay with us.
You hire us. Hosting, the domain, backups, and the work log are already running. You pay for the hours on your project.
Hosting that stays up
Your site sits on servers Joseph runs. Not a shared-hosting lottery. If it goes down at 2am, that's his problem.
A place for the data
Bookings, orders, customers, inventory: stored and backed up, not a spreadsheet in someone's inbox.
Photos and files that load
Images and documents stored and served so a customer on a phone isn't waiting on a 4MB photo.
Your name and email
New sites go live on LocalFave.org first: yourname.localfave.org. A custom domain later, if you want one. Certificates and email forwarding stay with us either way.
Extra hands on the work
Current tools on design, code, and copy. The studio ships the change.
We keep the host
We deal with the hosting so you don't have to.
See a homepage before you pay.
Create an account first. Then we'll design a free homepage mockup in 48 hours: one concept, one revision. No invoice. No account. No mockup.
Try a layout before we design yours.
Pick a site type and a feel. This is a live layout on this page, not a screenshot. Then send that brief in for a real mockup.
This preview is a toy. The real mockup is custom: one concept, one revision, free in 48 hours.
A homepage for the people who already want you.
Call, book, or buy: on a page that looks like the shop, not a template.
Start a projectA sample site, and the clock behind it.
Click the demo site. Then open the public demo log. Client bills use the same format. They stay private. Concept mockups: the pages drawn before anyone pays, live at jbnx.io/sample.

Free 10-point website & SEO audit
Already have a site? We'll run it through a 10-point check: speed, mobile, search basics, local listings, and what stops a visitor from calling, and send you the findings in plain English. Free. You can walk after you read it.
If the same work happens every week, put it on a schedule.
Reports, follow-ups, data collection: the jobs that steal a morning. We can run those on your own hosting.
If your shop already knows the steps, we put them on a schedule. You don't babysit a spreadsheet at 11pm.
If you already know the steps, they run on a schedule. You don't rebuild the sheet on Monday.
What ran, when it ran, and what it sent. You can go back and look.
You see the minutes. Routine jobs stay cheap. The expensive ones only run when the job needs them.
A new send or a new number gets a check first. You don't wait on a review meeting.
Collect data, watch a site, send an alert. The work still happens when nobody is at the desk.
Changes go to a test site. The live site moves only after that copy is good.
Twenty-nine a month. You pay for extra hours.

A public demo log sits next to the demo site. Your year total with us, excluding pass-through fees, becomes included minutes at $60/hr ($1 = 1 minute). Unused minutes roll over.

Not a quote: the same numbers as the cards. Shopify is paid upfront as a pass-through and does not buy studio minutes. Care and inboxes do. Square setup is included.
$348 care. $1 with us = 1 studio minute. Shopify is their fee, paid upfront.
Domain, email, Shopify, Square
We register the domain and run the hosting so launches and fixes don't wait on you. Premium domains and third-party platform fees are separate.
Email inbox
- Real inbox (not just forwarding)
- Forwarding stays free with every deploy
- Cheaper than typical Workspace seats
Shopify store
- Your $29/mo care still applies

- Does not add studio minutes
Square store

- Custom domain we manage
- Store work uses studio time from your care minutes
- Demo run to show real minute cost
Free domain = standard .com-equivalent cost; premium TLDs are paid by you. Basic security and basic SEO (on-page, local listings, search visibility) are included. Extra SEO campaigns or extra content use studio minutes from your monthly work credit. Large builds (custom automations, overnight jobs, extra tracking, databases beyond a basic store) require consultation. JBNX owns the design, domains it purchases, and the stack. You may leave at any time: we take the site down when you go. Missed monthly payment may also take the site down. Domain and file transfer only after twelve consecutive paid months if you ask in writing. New customers sign the Service Agreement. Nonprofits and veteran-owned businesses: ask about our discount.
The usual questions
Is the free mockup really free? What's the catch?
Really free: one concept and one revision. Fill out the intake form so we know the page type, the feel you want, and sites you like; that brief is what we design from. No invoice, no obligation. Extra design rounds after that use studio time.
What is studio time?
Studio time is the metered work on your site or app: updates, fixes, build, SEO, and setup beyond what's already included. It's billed at $60/hr by the minute on bill.jbnx.io. That log is private. A public demo is at bill.jbnx.io/public/demo next to jbnx.io/demo. Your year total with us (care + our add-ons, not pass-through fees) becomes included minutes: $1 = 1 minute. Unused minutes roll over. Extra time needs prepaid credits on bill.jbnx.io.
Is SEO included in $29/mo?
Yes, basic security and basic SEO are included: the certificate, headers, backups, on-page work, local listings, and search visibility. Extra campaigns or extra content use studio minutes from the included $29 credit or prepaid credits.
Where does the site go live?
New sites go live on LocalFave.org first: yourname.localfave.org. That is the live site, not a draft. If you want a custom domain later, we attach it. Hosting stays the same either way.
Who owns the domain and the site?
JBNX owns the design, the domains we purchase or register, and the stack. We must manage the domain to keep providing the service. You may leave at any time: we take the site down when you go. After twelve consecutive paid months you may ask in writing for a transfer of the domain and the public site files (you pay the registrar fee). Missed monthly payment may also take the site down. New customers sign the Service Agreement before we build or host.
What's included in $29/mo?
Care for the live site: hosting, the certificate, and the domain we manage, plus $29 of studio-time credit (29 minutes) every month. Basic security and basic SEO are included. Email forwarding is included; a real inbox is $5/mo per mailbox ($3/mo each when you have more than five). Studio minutes come from your year total: for example $29/mo care is $348 → 348 minutes in year one.
How do Shopify and Square work?
Shopify: your care plan plus Shopify's Basic rate as a pass-through, paid upfront (typically $29/mo billed yearly or $39/mo monthly, their price). That pass-through does not add studio minutes. Square: setup is included on your Square seller account. The store work itself uses studio time; we'll run a demo so you can see the minute cost before you commit.
What counts as a large / custom build?
Anything beyond a basic store or flat site that needs a consult first: for example custom automations, overnight jobs, extra tracking, or databases that aren't a simple launch. We'll scope it before work starts.
