QuincyBiz
Business & Personal Websites
Want a website?
I’ll make it easy, make you look good, and it won’t cost an arm and a leg.
I’m Diana Ratliff. I put up my first website in 1999, and I’ve helped small businesses with their websites since 2009. I created QuincyBiz for local people who want to look good online, but don’t want the hassle or expense of a big website project.
$299 for the finished, done-for-you website, including hosting for the first year. $99/year after that.
So how can I offer a professionally built website at that price? I use a standardized one-page layout rather than designing every site from scratch, and I host the sites together on QuincyBiz. That lets me keep the cost reasonable while I handle the work for you.
You provide the basic information, photos and links. I organize it, write the content, build the website and get it online. You don’t have to learn website software or figure out the technical details.
Your website can be about your business, or it can be a personal profile that brings your work, experience, community involvement and other interests together in one place.

Could a QuincyBiz Website Be Useful for You?
A Business website may be a good fit if:
- You run a small local business, startup, side gig, non-profit or one- or two-person company.
- Most of your business comes from referrals, Google, Facebook, or word of mouth.
- You want one central place to send people for complete information.
- You don’t need online payments, complicated forms, advanced tools or frequent content updates.
- You don’t want to build, update, or manage a website yourself.
NOT having a website could be costing you business. In a recent national survey, 39% of consumers said they had decided not to visit or buy from a business because it lacked a website. (Source: DreamHost 2026 Local Business Trust Index)
A Personal Profile website may be a good fit if:
- You want people to know more about you than a company bio usually shows.
- You have several roles, projects, affiliations, interests or local activities.
- You want one place to connect your work, experience, social profiles, community involvement, and contact information.
- You want an easy link to share when networking or meeting new people – in an email, on a business card, or whenever someone asks where they can learn more about you.
A QuincyBiz website gives you a “home base” online, one central place that you control. There are no competing ads, and you decide what information people see.
One Simple Website. The Information That Matters.
Your website can include:
- Your name or business name
- Your logo or profile photo
- A description of who you are or what you do
- Services, projects, affiliations, or interests
- Photos, reviews, or testimonials
- Social media and business links
- Contact information
- A web address you can share
You provide the basic information, photos and links. I help decide what belongs on your website, organize it, write the content and build the finished site for you.
Your website is focused on you or your business. QuincyBiz does not place competitor ads or links on it, and there is no public directory sending visitors to other pages on the site.
You don’t have to:
- Write your own website copy
- Figure out how to organize the information
- Build it yourself
- Learn website software
- Maintain and update a website yourself
- Figure out hosting and technical details
Here’s How It Works
I create your QuincyBiz website
Your website will have its own QuincyBiz web address, such as: quincybiz.com/your-name/ You can use your own domain name to point to it. (I’ll show you how.)
You send your information
You provide the basic information, photos, links, and contact details you want included. I’ll send you a simple questionnaire to make this easy.
I shape, write and build your website
I help decide what belongs on it, organize and write the content, add your photos and information, and build it for you. You won’t need to learn website software.
You review your website
You’ll have a chance to review everything and request reasonable changes before it goes live.
I launch it, and you share it
Tell the world! On your Google Business Profile, Facebook page, LinkedIn, email signature, business cards, and more.
Your finished, done-for-you website is $299 for the first year.
That includes writing, design, setup, hosting, and a contact form. You provide the information; I turn it into the finished website. Every QuincyBiz website is one page.
Need another page for the same person or business? Additional pages are $200 each.
Renewal is just $99 per page per year.
QuincyBiz is a practical option for people who need a professional home online without taking on the time and expense of building and managing a full website.
Frequently Asked Questions
A Business website focuses on the company or organization. It can include services, photos, reviews, contact information, a service area, and links to other business profiles.
A Personal Profile website focuses on the individual. It can bring together your work, company affiliations, projects, community involvement, interests, social profiles, and contact information in one place.
Some people may benefit from both: a Business website for the company and a Personal Profile website for the person behind it.
A QuincyBiz website is $299 for the first year. That includes writing, design, setup, hosting and a contact form.
Every QuincyBiz website is one page. Additional pages for the same person/business: $200 each.
Renewal: $99 per page per year
If you don't renew, your website comes down.
QuincyBiz pages use a standardized format similar to the example websites.
I customize the wording, photos, services, reviews and contact information for your business or personal profile, while keeping the overall layout consistent. This helps keep the price affordable.
QuincyBiz websites do not include built-in ecommerce, appointment booking or other advanced tools. Links to outside services can be included.
No. QuincyBiz is designed for people who do not want to build or maintain a website themselves.
If you need changes later, I can make them for you. Updates start at $25, depending on how much needs to be changed.
No. Your website is hosted on QuincyBiz and will have an address such as quincybiz.com/your-company/
But it's a great idea to have your own domain. I can help you choose one, then help you redirect it to your QuincyBiz website.
No. A QuincyBiz website is hosted as part of QuincyBiz itself, so an individual website page cannot be transferred to another platform.
If you later build a larger website, you can print or save a copy of your QuincyBiz site and use it as a reference for the new site.
No. A QuincyBiz website gives your business a great central location for people to learn about you or your business, but it isn't a marketing or SEO package.
It is not an ongoing SEO or marketing service, but the website is built with basic search visibility in mind and can be linked from your Google Business Profile, social media, email and other places where people find you.
Each QuincyBiz website has its own web address, page title, and description. I’ll set up so Google can find and index it.
However, where your website appears in search results depends on many factors, including competition, the age of the website, and your overall online presence. No one can honestly guarantee rankings or traffic.
About QuincyBiz
Hi! I’m Diana Ratliff, Your Friend on the Web.
I put up my first website in 1999 and have “been there, done that” when it comes to websites, SEO, and online marketing. I started Your Friend on the Web in 2009 to help small businesses make smart online decisions and avoid costly mistakes.
After moving to Quincy, I was surprised by how many good local businesses had little or no website presence. My husband and I were new to town and spending money on everything from home repairs to local services. Before calling someone, we wanted to check them out: learn who they were, what they did, and whether they seemed like a good fit.
Quincy is a community where word of mouth matters, so we asked the few people we knew. But of course nobody knows everyone. And if you’re new to town, you may not know who to call at all.
Over the years, I’ve worked with many hardworking, knowledgeable business owners who excel at what they do but don’t necessarily need, want, or have time to manage a traditional website.
I know, from personal experience, that NOT having a website hurts these people. Businesses with a website are perceived as 41% more trustworthy than those without one. (Source: DreamHost 2026 Local Business Trust Index)
I’ve also talked to people who wanted a better way to introduce themselves online. A company website may say very little about them. Info about their work, community involvement, interests, and social profiles may be scattered in several places.
My mission with QuincyBiz is to help hardworking local businesses and individuals put their best foot forward online, so people who do not already know them can quickly understand who they are, what they do, and why they are worth contacting.
