CMS websites

Update your own content — safely

Our CMS websites use TinaCMS, a Git-backed content management system. You edit text and images in a clean interface; every change is saved as a versioned commit and published automatically.

  • Edit without code

    Update text, pricing, team details, projects and images through simple forms designed around your content.

  • Guard rails built in

    Fields are structured and validated, so an edit cannot accidentally break your layout. Invalid content never goes live.

  • Every change is versioned

    Content is stored in your Git repository, so earlier versions can be reviewed and restored.

  • Still a fast static site

    Edits trigger a fresh build. Visitors always receive pre-built pages — no database to slow things down.

Who you pay

Our fees and third-party charges, separated

Your development fee is a one-time charge. Every website also has a yearly hosting & domain fee; CMS websites may also need a CMS service plan. Care plans are optional.

Black & Brace fees

Website development One-time
Paid to: Black & Brace
The design and build of your website, as fixed in your written quotation.
Hosting & domain S$300/year

Care plans and Workspace management Optional, yearly or monthly

Third-party charges — billed by each provider

CMS service (CMS websites only) Depends on plan
Paid to: CMS service provider
The editing interface for CMS websites signs in through a hosted service with its own plans. Its free plan currently covers up to two editors; larger teams may need a paid plan. The provider sets its own pricing, which can change — we confirm it with you before launch.
Google Workspace licences Per user
Paid to: Google
Licences are purchased from and paid to Google directly. Google sets licence pricing, which can change. Our setup and management fees are separate.

Process

From first conversation to launch

A clear process with defined review points.

  1. Step 1: Scope and quotation

    We agree on pages, features, content responsibilities, revision rounds and timeline in writing.

  2. Step 2: Design direction

    We present the layout and visual direction for your key pages and refine it with your feedback.

  3. Step 3: Development

    We build the site with responsive, accessible code on a private preview link you can review on any device.

  4. Step 4: Launch and handover

    We configure your domain, SSL and hosting, test the contact form, and train your team on the CMS if included.

FAQ

Website questions

What is the difference between a static website and a CMS website?
Both are fast, professionally designed websites built to the same standard. A static website is updated by us when you need a change. A CMS website adds an easy-to-use editing interface so you can update text, images and other content yourself, without touching code.
How long does a website take?
It depends mainly on scope and how quickly content and feedback are ready. We agree a realistic timeline in your written quotation before work begins, and keep you updated at each review point.
Do I need to provide the content?
Yes. You supply the text and images for your website, and we advise on structure and what each page needs. Copywriting and photography are not included unless they are specifically quoted.
What ongoing costs should I expect?
Your website development fee is one-time. Every website we host also has a yearly hosting & domain fee of S$300, covering hosting on our VPS plan and your domain name, which we register and renew on your behalf. CMS websites may also need a plan for the hosted service behind the editor; its pricing is set by the provider and can change, so we confirm it before launch. Care plans are optional.
Can I update the website myself?
With a CMS website, yes — you can edit content through its editing interface. With a static website, changes are made by us, either as ad-hoc requests from S$60 or through the Website Partner plan.
Do you offer SEO, advertising or social media management?
Every website we build includes sound technical SEO foundations: page titles, descriptions, a sitemap, structured data and fast, accessible pages. We do not currently offer managed SEO campaigns, paid advertising or social media management.
What if I need more than five pages?
Our starting packages cover up to five pages. Larger websites are quoted individually based on the number and complexity of pages.
Where will my website be hosted?
We host websites on a VPS plan with our hosting provider and look after the server for you. Hosting and your domain name together cost S$300 per year, billed separately from the development fee.
