Boutique studio

Designed with the focus of a studio, not sold like a template.

PixiePinesPress is for brands whose products, packaging and visual direction are stronger than their current website. The goal is not to make the brand generic, but to present it with more clarity, restraint and confidence.

Transformation

From a promising product brand to a more trusted online presence.

Which plan should I choose?

A simple guide before you send a project enquiry.

1

Starter Plan

Choose this if you need a strong one-page website, a better first impression and a simple route from Instagram, Etsy or stockist listings.

2

Brand Plan

Choose this if you have active products, collections, scent profiles or a stronger product story that needs clearer structure.

3

Studio Plan

Choose this if you need a deeper brand site, more pages, more content and stronger support after launch.

Prefer a one-time project?

One-time custom projects are available for selected requests by quote. They are a secondary offer, but available if direct ownership from the start is important for your brand.

Ownership & safety

A clearer way to start a website project without losing control.

The 24-month plan is designed to feel safe and predictable: your domain stays yours, the scope is written before work starts and the route to ownership is clear from the beginning.

01

Your domain stays yours

The domain should remain registered in your name. PixiePinesPress can support the setup, DNS and hosting connection, but the domain is not held hostage.

02

Written scope before build

Pages, inclusions, maintenance, support and ownership terms are agreed before work starts, so there is no vague handoff or surprise scope later.

03

Transfer path after final payment

After the agreed 24-month term and final payment, the completed website files can transfer to you. You can continue with care or move to your own hosting.
