Spark sits in the lower third of the custom range — and it ships hand-coded Astro, full JSON-LD schema, and the AEO baseline, which template-tier builds at this price typically don’t include.
TIER · VOLTAGE BUILD
Spark
A single-page Astro-built website that loads fast, ranks for local search, and ships with full SEO + AEO baseline — schema graph, llms.txt, sitemap, IndexNow-ready. The right starting point for tradespeople, solo professionals, and one-location businesses.
A single page can carry a whole business when it’s built right. Spark is for the business that needs one hardworking page rather than a multi-page architecture, and it ships with the same AEO baseline as our largest builds. The only thing that scales between tiers is content depth.

Where Spark pricing sits in the market
Published pricing data puts custom small-business web work in wide ranges. This is where this build sits against the same scope class — published figures, named sources, no cherry-picking.
Why the gap? An owner-built shop on a static Astro stack: no project-manager layer, no page-builder licenses, no enterprise overhead priced into the build.
