Starter Sites
A real website, built fast, priced fair.
Not a custom build. Not an AI system. A clean, working site for a business that needs to be found and look right doing it.
Veteran-owned. Built by someone who does the work himself, not routed through a sales team.

Who builds Starter Sites
Starter Sites is the small business website package at Meraki is Love, built by Adam McClarin. The person on the call is the person who ships.
What's included
One page. Your info, your photos, mobile-ready. Live in about a week.
Up to five pages. Room for a fuller menu or service list, a real about section, a working contact or booking flow.
Real content in your actual brand, your colors, your voice, your photos. Comes with a 30-day calendar telling you exactly what to post and when. Not a template flyer with your logo pasted on top.
What this is next to
Wix and Squarespace are tools. You still have to finish the site. Plan cost runs about $16 to $29 a month.
A marketplace gig at $200 to $600 is usually a theme with your logo dropped in. You manage a seller. In six months there is no one to call.
A mid freelance five-page site often runs $1,000 to $3,000. Agencies start higher than that.
Starter Sites is a working page adapted from a live demo you can click before you pay. $500 for one page. $1,000 for up to five pages and a contact or booking path. Built by Adam McClarin at Meraki is Love. The person on the call is the person who ships.
What you get that the cheap gig does not
- You click Corner Table, Iron Prism, Keelhouse, Hazel, Tessel, Pikewell, Tallybrook, Saltbrush, Fernhollow, Sideoats, or The Meraki Inn first.
- You talk to one owner. Nationwide.
- After launch I can scan the live URL with Canopy Guard for search, AI answers, and visible security.
