Adze runs on a server I rent myself, on software I wrote and still look after. The sites it builds are small, and I keep them that way.

Nobody in the middle

There's no platform sitting between you and your site, so there are no per-seat fees and no company renting you back your own work.

The sites stay small

Sites compile down to plain static pages, so they load fast and there is very little in them that can break.

You pay me, directly

There are no plans and no tiers to choose between. I quote you for the work, I invoice you for it, and if a job turns out bigger than I thought I tell you before I start rather than after.

Domains you own yourself

A domain is the one thing the web really does make you pay for. I can register one and look after it for you, or you can buy it wherever you like and point it here. Either way the registration stays in your name.

One WhatsApp away

Adze is a one-man company, so when it comes to your site you are dealing with me and nobody else. There's no support desk and no ticket queue. You message me, and the person who answers is the person who built it.
