We draft websites for local businesses — before you ask.
We find small businesses around town that don't have a great website, put one together for them, and email them a link. The preview's free to look at. Make it yours from $250.
The preview's free, no card. Owning it starts at $250.
The website comes first. The pitch is just a link.
We find your business
We look for local businesses doing real work — plumbers, painters, electricians, landscapers — that don't have a great web presence yet.
We draft a website
We put together a clean, modern website draft tailored to your trade, with your name, phone, and city already in place.
We email you the link
You see exactly what we made, click around, and decide if it's worth anything to you. The pitch is the website itself.
You decide
Like it? $250 takes it as-is, or we build your changes first and you pay only after you approve. Don't like it? Walk away, no harm done. No upsells, no pressure.
Hi — we're draftedfor.
We started draftedfor because we noticed two things at the same time: local businesses we knew and trusted had outdated or missing websites, and modern web design is now cheap enough to do at a scale that used to be impossible.
So we draft websites — actually draft them, before reaching out — and then send the business owner the link. The pitch isn't a meeting or a deck. It's the website itself, sitting at a URL with their name on it. Take it or leave it, no awkward sales call.
You're talking to a real person on our team, not a ticket queue. Email support@draftedfor.com any time.
Straightforward pricing. Own it outright, or let us run it.
The build is a one-time $250. From there, let us host and maintain it for $19.99/mo, or take the file and host it yourself for free. Either way, you own it.

Common questions
Why did you make me a website I didn't ask for?
Because telling a business owner "we'd build you a website" is worth nothing without proof. Telling them "we built you one — here's the link" is worth a click. If it's useful, we go from there. If not, you ignore the email.
What's free and what costs?
Looking at the draft is free — no card, no commitment. It's just a sample with your business name and contact info plugged in to show you what's possible. Owning it is a one-time $250 — then $19.99/mo if you want us to host and maintain it, or take the file and host it yourself for free. Want changes first? We build them and you only pay once you approve.
What if I want a website but you haven't emailed me?
Fill out the get-a-draft form and we'll draft one for you within a day. Same flow — you see it before you decide anything.
Who owns the site?
You do. Once you pay for the build, the site is yours. Host it with us for $19.99/mo, or take the file and host it anywhere else — free.
Can I cancel after paying?
Hosting is month-to-month — cancel anytime. Your site comes offline, but you keep the file and can put it back up yourself or restart hosting whenever. For custom builds, you only pay once you've approved the work.
Will you call me?
Only if you ask us to. Most of this works over email — we prefer it and most of our customers do too.
Want a draft for your business?
Send us a one-line email — your business name and what you do — and we'll have a draft sitting at a URL within a day or two.
