Websites for South African small businesses
See your website before you pay a cent.
I build you a real, working website first — no deposit, no contract. You look at it on your phone, show your family, ask for changes. Like it, it goes live and the monthly starts. Don't, and you owe nothing.
- Free demo, no obligation
- No contracts
- Hosting & domain included
The work
Four sites. Nothing in common.
Every one of these is a real, live client site AJ built and still runs. No two look alike on purpose — a template shop cannot do that.
“AJ helped our business with monthly website maintenance and updates. He has been really easy to work with and is very dedicated to our needs. If ever a problem arise, he works non stop to solve it. Would definitely recommend!”
— Robyn Hartman, Google review“AJ helped me build a site for my business via Shopify, and it has made my life so much easier. Transactions are now all handled through Shopify - no more manual quotes and invoices. Very satisfied with the service received!”
— Jacobus Laas, Google review“Thank you very much, AJ, for your excellent work in building my website. Your dedication, precision, professionalism, quality, ......., etc. are outstanding. You did not deliver the website until everything was 101%.”
— Menitza Loock, Google review
How it works
Three steps. You only pay at the last one.
I build it.
I research your business and build you a real, working website. You have not paid anything.
You look at it.
A live link on your phone. Show your family. Ask for changes.
You decide.
Like it, it goes live on your own domain and the monthly starts. Don't, and you owe nothing.
Pricing
Two plans. One monthly number.
No setup fee, no contract — month-to-month, and most people stay.
Basic website
Your site, hosting, your domain, and small monthly changes. AJ runs all of it.
Payments or online store
Everything in Basic, plus online payments or a standard online store.
Why owners stay
I am your web person. You never think about it again.
Hosting and domain, handled
Nothing to renew, nothing to configure. It's included every month.
Changes when you need them
New hours, new price, new photo — tell me and it's live.
One person, not a ticket queue
You message AJ directly. Not a support rota, not a chatbot.
No contracts, no lock-in
Month-to-month. Leave anytime — but most people don't.
Who you're dealing with
AJ Hartman
Founder, AJ Web Design — Malmesbury, South Africa
I build every site myself, by hand — no templates, no subcontractors, no call centre.
I handle the hosting, the domain and the changes personally, for every client I have.
You see the finished website before a cent changes hands, every time.
I work with small businesses across South Africa, and I'm now doing the same for the UK and US.
FAQ
The questions people actually ask.
What if I say no?
Nothing happens. The demo is yours to look at with no obligation — if it's not right for you, you owe nothing and we leave it there.
Am I locked in?
No. It's month-to-month, with no setup fee and no contract. Cancel any time.
I'm not technical — what do I have to do?
Nothing technical. You look at the demo on your phone and tell me what to change. I handle the rest.
Can I own it outright?
The standard plan is month-to-month, hosting included. If you want to talk about buying it outright instead, message me directly and we'll work it out.
What happens to my existing site?
I look at what's there, keep what already works, and rebuild what doesn't. You're not starting from zero, and nothing goes down without you knowing first.
