What makes Forge different

A real web developer, not a marketplace listing.

Most search results for "web developer" send you to Upwork, Fiverr, or Toptal. You post a job. You get 40 proposals from all over the world. You pick one on price. You get a site that looks like a template.

Forge is different. You talk to the builder directly on a discovery call. We quote fixed scope in writing before any code gets written. Every site ships with SEO baked in, schema markup, sitemap, Google Business Profile management, and ongoing updates included on the $99/mo plan.

And if you outgrow the template, custom builds start at $2,500 fixed-scope. No hourly billing surprises. No agency overhead. Direct with the developer.

FAQ

Common web developer questions.

How do I find a web developer I can trust?
Ask for three things: a portfolio of live sites you can actually visit, a written fixed-scope quote before work starts, and direct access to the developer (not just a project manager). Any developer who cannot provide all three is a risk. Forge provides all three by default.
What do web developer services typically cost?
Rough industry ranges: freelancer marketplace $500-$3,000 (quality variable). Local agency $5,000-$25,000 for a marketing site. Large agency or SaaS company $50,000+. Forge sits at $99/mo turnkey (Forge Sites) or $2,500+ fixed-scope for custom.
Do I need a professional web developer or can I DIY?
If you are a solo founder testing a business idea, DIY on Squarespace or Wix is fine. If you have paying customers and your site needs to convert (booking, e-commerce, lead capture), the cost of a real developer pays back within 60-90 days on lift alone.
Where are the best web developers located?
This one is more about culture-fit than location. Look for a developer in your time zone (so you can talk during normal hours), with domain experience in your industry, and a portfolio of live sites you can inspect. Forge is North Georgia based, serving the US, with a portfolio at /work.
Do you take custom builds or just $99 sites?
Both. See /custom-software for custom development. Discovery calls are free.
