WHY CUSTOM

Built for you. Not assembled from a template.

Bands and small businesses can publish a Wix site in a weekend. Promoters, customers, and Google can tell. A custom TheMasterPage site is designed around your brand, built to convert, and yours to keep.

A builder site is easy to launch. Hard to own.

Template libraries make every contractor, salon, and tribute act look related.

Widgets pile up. Pages get slow. Forms and booking flows feel generic.

You rent the platform. Move later and you start over.

“SEO included” on a builder is maintenance, not a growth program.

When you need tour dates + EPK, industry proof, or a real web app, the builder becomes the constraint.

Who this is for

Bands, tribute acts, solo artists

Linktree / Wix / Facebook is not promoter-ready. Need dates, EPK, music, booking.

Local businesses and practices

Need trust, proof, and a clear next step — not a theme every competitor already used.

Hobby project or a one-night event? A builder is fine. If the site has to win work, go custom.

We rebuild. Keep your domain. Redirect the old URLs. Recreate what works, replace what does not. You do not need to stay on a platform because that is where the site started.

Common questions

Isn’t a builder cheaper?

The subscription looks cheap. You pay every month, hit upgrade walls, and rebuild if you leave. A custom project has a clear price. Band sites start at $299. Industry business sites start at $3,500. Hosting is optional and listed in dollars, not surprise add-ons.

Can we still update the site ourselves?

Yes. WordPress child themes include training. One-page sites we can update quickly, or we add a lightweight CMS. You are not stuck waiting on a ticket queue for a text change.

Will we lose our domain or our Google listing?

No. The domain stays yours. We point it at the new site and set up redirects so existing links keep working. Google Business Profile is separate and stays in your account.

How long does a custom site take?

Simple sites: 1–4 weeks. Custom business sites: typically 3–5 weeks. Applications: 6–12 weeks, depending on scope and content readiness.

We already have a Wix site. Do we start from zero?

No. We use what you already have — copy, photos, domain, and anything that converts — then rebuild it properly.
