We get to work designing and building your custom website based on your business, brand, services, and project requirements. We handle the design, development, mobile responsiveness, and technical setup.
Justin
My name is Justin, and I'm the owner and lead developer of Forest Hills Web, a New York City-based web development company. I started the business while building my career in software engineering and studying computer science, with a simple goal: help small businesses get better technology without needing a large in-house development team.
As I started working with local businesses, I noticed the same problem over and over again. Some were being quoted huge one-time prices for websites, while others had already spent thousands of dollars and were left with slow, outdated sites that were difficult to maintain and didn't actually help the business grow. Even after launch, they were often on their own whenever something needed to be changed, fixed, or improved.
So I built Forest Hills Web around a different model. Instead of treating a website like a one-time project, we combine an upfront setup fee with an ongoing monthly subscription. Our plans currently start at $3,000 plus $400 per month, with higher tiers at $4,000 plus $650 per month and $6,000 plus $1,000 per month depending on the scope of the project and level of ongoing support.
That structure lets us do the work properly from the beginning while continuing to maintain, improve, and support what we build after launch. Clients don't have to worry about hosting, technical maintenance, updates, or finding a new developer every time their business changes.
Over time, our work has expanded beyond websites. We've built custom analytics tools, AI-powered phone systems, scheduling integrations, and other software for businesses that need more than an online brochure. The goal is still the same: give smaller organizations access to high-quality software, design, and ongoing technical support without needing to build their own development team.
We keep the process simple and handle the technical work from start to finish. We design and develop your new website, give you the opportunity to review the finished product, and only move forward with launch once you've approved it.
After launch, we continue hosting, maintaining, and improving your website as part of your monthly plan.
Step 1
We get to work designing and building your custom website based on your business, brand, services, and project requirements. We handle the design, development, mobile responsiveness, and technical setup.
Step 2
Once your website is production-ready, we send it to you for review. You’ll have the opportunity to look through the completed site, request any final changes, and make sure everything is ready before approving it for launch.
Step 3
After you approve the production-ready website, your setup fee becomes due. We then configure your domain, complete the final deployment, and take your new website live.
Step 4
We don’t disappear after launch. Your website stays on Forest Hills Web-managed hosting with ongoing maintenance, security updates, uptime monitoring, and support. When you need changes or improvements, we continue working with you through your monthly plan.
We help small businesses build fast, modern websites that are made to grow with them. We care about the work long after launch, which is why our relationships don't end when the site goes live.
When you work with Forest Hills Web, you're not just hiring someone to build a website. You're gaining a long-term development partner who understands your business and is there when you need updates, support, or something new.
