a one-person web shop

small, well-made websites,
shipped quietly.

 

i'm tyler. i build the website first, send it to you, and you decide. no quotes, no zoom calls, no contracts.

// what tinyship is

a workbench, not an agency.

tinyship is one person, tyler, working out of a small office. i make websites for small businesses the way a furniture maker makes a chair: one at a time, with care, and you can see what it is before you pay for it.

if you got an email from me with a link to a demo of your business, that's the whole pitch. the site is real, it's already built, and it's yours if you want it.

// how it works

three steps. no surprises.

01

a demo lands in your inbox.

i find a small business i think i can help, build a real working website for it, and send a cold email with a link. no form, no sales pitch. just a link to the thing.

02

if you like it, it's yours.

reply yes and we hook it up to your domain. tweaks to copy, photos, colors, and pages are part of the deal. if you don't like it, ignore the email. that's fine too.

03

i keep it running.

hosting, updates, small changes, the boring technical stuff. one monthly fee covers it. cancel any month and the site is still yours to take elsewhere.

// why this way

for folks who've been burned before.

if you've ever paid a web agency a few thousand dollars for a site that took six months and looked like a powerpoint, you know the feeling. tinyship is the opposite of that.

you see the work first. then you decide. that's the whole trick.

no discovery calls.

no "let's hop on a quick zoom." i built the demo already.

no annual contracts.

month to month. cancel by replying to an email.

no upsells.

no seo packages, no growth funnels, no marketing tier.

just a website that works.

loads fast, looks good, runs on your phone, is easy to update.

// pricing

one monthly subscription.

i'll quote a flat monthly number when i send your demo. it covers the build, the hosting, the domain handling, and ongoing small changes. fair pricing. no contracts. cancel any time.

included every month

  • + hosting and ssl
  • + domain setup and dns
  • + copy, photo, and content updates
  • + small new pages and sections
  • + a real human (tyler) on email

// contact

just email tyler.

questions, feedback on a demo, or "are you a real person?" all valid. i read every one.
