About this preview
I built this for Bodrum Restaurant. Here's how it becomes real.
This preview is temporary. It comes down two weeks after I first send it your way — the follow-up email has the exact date. If you want it finished, I finish it: the full site built out, the AI-visibility layer that gets Bodrum Restaurant into AI search answers, and 90 days of tweaks after launch.
Websites start at $1,497. Most land between $1,497 and $3,500 depending on size, and I confirm the exact number with you before any money moves.
If anything I ship is broken or incomplete, I fix it at no charge. No contracts; everything after launch is month to month.
