A site is not done at launch.
Your site is a living asset. It needs hosting, security, weekly backups, and an actual person reachable when something breaks. Three published tiers. Honest pricing. No surprise invoices.
Self-scoring tool, free. Or a one-page expert audit in five business days.
- Hosting, security, backups, and updates from $199 a month.
- Three tiers: essentials $199, active $499, strategic $1,000 to $1,200.
- The line item that keeps the rebuild clock from restarting.
- Anyone with a site we built
- Sites we did not build (after assessment)
Work we've done along the way.
Guided teams, in their own words.

Katie McClearyCreative Nomads is one of the best branding and design firms that I've ever worked with in the past 20 years. They provide expertise, creativity, depth, and truly partner with you to have a great experience and outcome. They spent meaningful time with my business partner and I learning our specific needs to cultivate a brand identity that truly represented our value proposition and identity in the marketplace. They are friendly, timely, and attentive to budget and quality.

Reese NallFrom the first call to the launch of our new website and then even the follow up since the launch, my experience with Creative Nomads has been so very personal! They took the time to understand the heart of our company, and our website is such a beautiful reflection of us because of the intentionality of the entire Creative Nomad team. Communication has been top notch and the design is fabulous! They walked me through every step of the process and helped me think through the details I would get stuck on. I would highly recommend Creative Nomads not only for the quality of the build and design but also for the excellence of their team—way to go you guys! I love it!!!
The Creative Nomads approach.
- 01
Predictable cadence.
Monthly check-in by default. Quarterly review for plans on the high end. You know when work is happening because it is in your inbox.
- 02
No padded retainers.
Hours that you do not use roll forward one cycle. We are not running the clock down to bill you.
- 03
Transparent reporting.
You see what we did every month. Uptime, backups, updates, time spent. No black box.
Published tiers. No coyness.
Three published tiers based on traffic, complexity, and how often you need updates. No long-term lock-in.
- Essentials$199 / mo
Hosting, security, weekly backups, uptime monitoring. For sites that need keeping safe more than keeping fresh.
- Active Recommended$499 / mo
Essentials plus monthly priority updates and one quarterly review call. Most clients land here.
- Strategic$1,000 – $1,200 / mo
Active plus monthly strategy review, content updates, and ongoing optimization. For sites that are central to revenue or fundraising.
Pricing is what it costs, not what we hope you’ll spend. Phased delivery is available for nonprofit budgets, we phase scope, not price.
Real outputs. Not a capability list.
- Managed hosting
-
Fast, secure, monitored. On Cloudflare, Vercel, or your existing infrastructure if it makes sense.
- Weekly backups
-
Off-site, versioned, restorable in minutes if you ever need them.
- Security monitoring
-
Patches, WAF rules, uptime monitoring. We hear about issues before you do.
- Monthly priority updates
-
Copy tweaks, page additions, plugin updates. Tracked in a shared workspace; you see exactly what we did.
- Real human support
-
Slack channel, email, or a call. You reach a person, not a ticket queue.
Asked before they hire us.

What does a care plan cost?
Three published tiers. Essentials is $199 per month for hosting, security, weekly backups, and uptime monitoring. Active is $499 per month and adds monthly priority updates plus a quarterly review call. Strategic runs $1,000 to $1,200 per month and adds monthly strategy review and ongoing optimization.
-
Will you maintain a site you did not build?
Usually, after a short assessment. We host and maintain over 100 websites, and plenty of them arrived from other builders. The assessment tells us whether the site is healthy enough to stand behind, and what it needs first if it is not.
-
Am I locked into a contract?
No long-term lock-in. Plans run month to month, and unused priority-update hours roll forward one cycle. We keep clients by being worth keeping.
-
What happens when something breaks?
You reach a person, not a ticket queue. Security monitoring and uptime alerts mean we usually hear about issues before you do, and weekly off-site backups mean the worst case is a restore measured in minutes.
Start with your score.
The Digital Legitimacy Score takes about three minutes. You'll see exactly where ongoing care plans would lift your numbers and where it would be wasted on you. No pitch attached.
