Launch day is deliberately boring. We point the domain, confirm the SSL certificate, submit the site to Google and tune your Google Business Profile so the map listing and the website agree with each other — mismatched hours between the two is one of the most common and most invisible reasons a local business loses calls.
Then the paths separate. On Scenic and Smart, the site is yours: we hand over the source files and you own it outright. Because we do not host those tiers, Smart includes the Hosting Launch Class — a guided session walking you through putting the site live, connecting the domain, and what to do if something looks wrong six months from now. Scenic clients can add the same class for $29.
The class exists for an honest reason. Handing someone a finished site and a folder of files, then leaving them to work out hosting alone, is not a handover — it is an abandonment with extra steps. We would rather spend an hour making sure you can actually run the thing you paid for.
On Summit nothing is handed over at all, because we keep running it: hosting, SSL renewals, uptime monitoring, backups, priority updates and continuous AI upkeep are all part of the monthly plan.
