Most agencies pitch. We just build it. You see your real site live, then decide if you want to keep it.
How it works
No discovery calls. No deck. No proposal. We build a real, branded version of your site and send you the link. If you like it, we ship it. If you don't, we shake hands and move on.

Why us
You see your actual site before money changes hands. Every other agency promises. We just show you.

Domain, hosting, SSL, email — we run all of it. You never have to remember a password to a service you set up three years ago.
Who we are
Builds and runs the infrastructure side of every site Rapids Digital ships. Background in IT and systems.
Comes from the media side — content editing and production. Brings the creative eye to every site and works directly with clients.
Questions
You can — and for a brochure site you'll do fine. We win when speed, custom integrations, real local SEO, or a site that doesn't scream "template" actually matter to your business.
You either take a monthly retainer and we keep the lights on — DNS, SSL, hosting, content updates, uptime — or you take the keys and run it yourself. No lock-in.
Yes. Code, content, hosting credentials, domain. We don't hold anything hostage. If we ever stop being a fit, you walk away with everything.
Most builds ship in under two weeks. Small ones in under a week. We don't do six-month discovery phases for a five-page site.
Often, yes. We'll audit it first and tell you straight whether to maintain or rebuild. No upsell games.
Based here, yes. We meet at Madcap, Wealthy Street, or your office — whatever works.

No call required. We'll send you a link when it's ready. If you want to talk first, that's fine too — pick up the phone.
