Web design for small businesses
We build and look after websites for small businesses in and around Durban — and anywhere in South Africa. They work on every device, they load fast, and when you need changes, you can reach us.
The problem
Already have a site — or a developer who went quiet? We take over abandoned ones. Setup and your first month included.
We'll sort itServices
Take one, two or all three. The build gets you online, hosting keeps it up, care keeps it current. They stack — everything is your call.
One-off build
A fixed quote before any work starts. Then a site that works on phones and loads fast — from a single landing page to a full multi-page site. It's yours when it's done.
From R1,000 — a one-page site for a salon, with us writing the about section, comes to about R1,850. Always quoted to your scope, before we start.
Hosting
Your site stays online, backed up and monitored. The domain and hosting are handled — infrastructure passed through at cost, itemized (a domain runs about R150 a year, passed through as-is).
Existing site? One-time takeover — setup and your first month included.
Maintenance
Small updates, quick fixes and a real person on WhatsApp when something breaks. Standalone — we can look after a site wherever it lives.
Month-to-month, cancel anytime — the site stays yours.
Dual package — Hosting + maintenance from R300/month.
Why us
Both are worth avoiding. Here's what we do instead.
High prices, jargon, templated sites, and nobody to call after launch.
Cheap to start, unreachable after delivery. No backups, no support, no one accountable.
One person builds your site and stays available. You approve everything, you own everything, and your messages get answered.
The Cornerstone promise
About
We've spent our lives watching good, honest small businesses lose customers for one simple reason: people can't find them online. Skilled owners, doing skilled work — and invisible in a search.
That's why we started Cornerstone Web: small businesses that get passed over deserve the same online presence as the big ones.
Every client is someone's family business. We treat it that way.
Process
WhatsApp or email. We agree on what your site needs and what it costs, before any work starts.
Deposit, then we build. You review it as it comes together and approve it before launch.
Once it's live, it's yours. Then hosting, maintenance, both or neither — your call, and no lock-in.
FAQ
You get a fixed quote before we start, based on what your site needs. Then it's your call: hosting from R75/month to keep the site up, and maintenance at R250/month to keep it updated and supported — standalone or together. Bigger changes are quoted separately, before we do them.
You review and approve the work as it goes, and you own everything when it's done. Each monthly option is month-to-month — nothing locks you in.
Not a thing. You tell us what your business does and who it's for. We handle the technical side and explain everything in plain language.
Yes. You own the site, the domain and the content. Hosting and maintenance are optional; if you stop them, you keep everything and we hand over cleanly.
Message us on WhatsApp. If you're on maintenance, we fix it. If not, we'll tell you what's wrong and what it will cost, and you decide. No surprise fees.
