Websites & Platforms

Manufacturing & industrial websites that scale

We design, build, host, and maintain websites and platforms for manufacturers across the Southeast with NO upfront costs and a reasonable monthly rate starting at $300/mo.

Money Drain » Money Making

Change the paradigm

Most manufacturers we talk to are running a site that got built once, several years back, by a firm that has since moved on. The IT vendor keeps the network and the email running and has no particular reason to update or upgrade. Nobody on payroll has the website in their job description, so change requests queue up behind whoever still has the login, and the site sits at whatever year it was finished, making it a drain on your bottom line rather than a revenue generator.

What maintenance covers

One monthly figure, no setup fee, and no change orders for anything inside the scope below.

  • Redesign and development of your website, or a complete rebuild
  • Managed hosting and a database, set up on our infrastructure and included
  • SSL, security patches, backups, and uptime monitoring with 99% uptime
  • Content updates whenever you need them completed within one week
  • Same-day response on bugs and downtime with a domestic support team
  • Monthly SEO work covering page speed, page structure, metadata, and content
  • Monthly GEO work, your company turns up when a buyer asks AI for answers
  • A quarterly review of what changed, what it moved, and what comes next

Scope

What we build

Websites

Robust capability, services, product, and about pages to help potential customers know how you're different. Then a spec or catalogue section, quote request flows, careers, news, and whatever else your buyers look for before they call. Built on a system your team can edit without calling us first.

Platforms

Workflow tools working hand-in-hand with your site. Quote request routing, part and spec lookup, a customer or dealer login, forms that write to an existing CRM, or a new CRM platform altogether. These can be built within the monthly maintenance agreement and scoped over time.

Search & AI

Monthly work on how buyers find you in Google and AI platforms. Technical health, page structure, content suggestions, and the entity citation work that decides whether an AI names your company or your competitors.

Larger platform work stays a separate engagement. Marketplaces, ERP and EDI integration, product configurators, and anything that needs its own data model start around $35,000 and get quoted on their own, which is what our platforms and scalable websites page covers. If a conversation that starts here turns into one of those, we will tell you early rather than stretch a subscription around work it was not built to hold.

Custom Platforms & AI Solutions

Timeline

Three weeks to launch

01

Week one

We meet, analyze what you have, and agree on the sitemap and collaborate on what the website should say. You give us access to your domain registrar and to whatever the current site runs on, and we pull the content worth keeping.

02

Week two

Design and build. You review the real thing in a staging environment rather than a flat mockup, on your phone as well as your desktop, and you give notes.

03

Week three

Revisions, final content load, image and graphic adjustments, accessibility and performance checks, then the cutover to the new hosting.

*Custom copywriting engagement from a Content Specialist priced separately

Three weeks starts and is contingent when you own your domain or can get us registrar access, and when somebody on your side can answer content questions within a day or two.

Pricing

What it costs

Both options include the initial build, ongoing support, hosting, search optimization, and regular improvements. There is no setup fee.

Basic Website

$300per month

For manufacturers that need a clearer, faster, more useful website without custom operational tools.

  • Complete website redesign or rebuild
  • Responsive development and content management
  • Product, capability, industry, and resource pages
  • Standard contact and quote-request forms
  • Managed hosting and database
  • SSL, security patches, backups, and uptime monitoring
  • Content and page updates, typically completed within one to two weeks
  • Same-day response to bugs and downtime
  • Monthly SEO and technical search improvements
  • Monthly GEO work for visibility in AI-generated search results
  • Quarterly performance and planning review

Website + Platform

$500per month

For manufacturers that need a larger or more complex website, or want the website connected to the way work actually gets done.

Includes everything in the Website plan, plus platform features such as:

  • Quote requests routed by product, territory, location, or department
  • Searchable part, product, and specification databases
  • Customer, distributor, or dealer logins
  • Forms connected directly to your existing CRM
  • A new CRM or workflow platform when an existing system is not the right fit
  • Service, replacement, or reorder requests
  • Customer-specific documents, pricing, or resources
  • Custom integrations with internal systems
  • More complex product catalogs, permissions, and workflows

The agreement runs as a five-year engagement. We walk you through how the term works, what happens at the end of it, and what you own, before anything gets signed.

The economics

Why does this cost less?

This work costs less than it did a few years ago because the hours go to different places now. We use AI to help with the mechanical parts of a build, including content migration, metadata, schema, alt text, initial layout work, and repetitive front-end development.

People still make almost every decision that carries risk. We work with you to determine what the site should say, how buyers move through it, what your products need to show, and whether the finished work is good enough to put our name on.

What changed is the number of hours between a good decision and a finished page. We pass that efficiency back through the price because a strong, long-term partnership matters more to us than a larger invoice once. Both plans operate as multi-year partnerships. Before anything is signed, we will explain how the term works, what happens when it ends, and what your company owns.

Telling you that now costs us a few conversations and saves you from buying the wrong thing. We value long-term, stable relationships with our clients, and this is how we see the future of that work progressing.

The proof

Built for this sector

Triptych has been building interactive work in Chattanooga since 2007, a good deal of it through agencies for EPB, Mueller, Chattanooga Allergy Clinic, A-1 Barricades, Wind River, Flywheel Brands, The Creative Discovery Museum, TVPPA and EMJ Construction, alongside direct clients in manufacturing, credit unions, and the public sector. The same team does the work at every price point, which is the part worth knowing when the monthly figure is this low.

Frequently Asked Questions.

What does the monthly fee include?
Design and build of the site, hosting and the database, SSL and security patching, backups, uptime monitoring, content and page updates each month, and ongoing SEO and GEO work. There is no setup fee and no separate hosting invoice.
Do I own the website?
Yes. You own your domain, your content, and your data throughout, and the transition of the build itself is written into the agreement. We walk through exactly what transfers and when before you sign.
We already have hosting. Can we keep it?
Usually we move you, because the monthly includes hosting and a database on infrastructure we manage and monitor, which is what lets us promise same-day response when something breaks. If you are on something specific for a reason, tell us in the form and we will work out whether it can stay.
How fast do updates get made?
Send requests whenever they come up. Content and page changes are scheduled and completed within one to two weeks. Anything broken or down gets a response the same day.
Can you work alongside our IT vendor?
Yes, and it usually goes well, because most IT vendors would rather not own a website. We handle the site, the hosting, and the database. They keep the network, the email, and the endpoints. We will talk to them directly about DNS and email records so you are not relaying messages between two vendors.
What is GEO, and why should a manufacturer care?
Buyers increasingly start with an assistant rather than a search box, asking something like who makes a given part in the Southeast. The assistant answers by naming specific companies, and whether yours is among them depends on how your site is structured, how clearly it states what you make and where, and where else you are cited. That work is different from traditional SEO and it runs every month alongside it.
Is there a setup fee?
No. The build is inside the monthly.
What happens if we want something bigger, like a configurator or an ERP integration?
We quote it separately. Work at that level starts around $35,000 and needs its own discovery, timeline, and data model, which is what our platforms and scalable websites page covers. We will say so early rather than quietly stretch the subscription.
