DIY builders Gig marketplaces Traditional agency Print shop + freelancer Indizilla
Who does the work You, on weekends Five strangers, separately A team, behind an account manager Two vendors who never meet One accountable team
Brand coherence Whatever the template allows Each gig starts from zero Good — at agency prices The print never matches the site One identity, everywhere — screen to paper
Who owns the result The platform, mostly — leave and it stays You, gig by gig, if you asked correctly Read the contract twice You, in pieces You, outright — transferred in full on delivery and payment
Price visibility Monthly, forever Per gig, till revisions "Contact us" Two quotes, no total On the page, confirmed in the proposal
When something breaks Support articles The gig is closed A ticket, in queue Depends which half broke The people who built it fix it
Can it test an idea first? No Survey gigs, unverified Focus groups, at focus-group prices No Yes — Indizilla Research
Can it build a product? Within the template Gig by gig, unowned architecture Sometimes, subcontracted No Yes — platforms, apps, MVPs
Lock-in Structural — the site lives on their platform None, and no continuity either Retainers None, and no memory either None. Month-to-month on monthly services; everything transfers

Compared by model, deliberately — every category above contains good companies, and a price screenshot would be stale in a month. What doesn't go stale is structure: who does the work, who owns it, and who answers when it matters.

The ownership rule

Yours outright — once delivered and paid.

Everything we produce transfers to you in full when we confirm delivery and payment is complete: domain, site, designs, accounts, every login. Until that moment the work-in-progress is ours — which is exactly what makes the handover clean, complete and final. The fine print says the same thing the big print does: read the terms.

  • Delivered means confirmed against your proposal, in writing.
  • Paid means paid in full — then transfer is immediate.
  • After transfer, nothing is held back and nothing expires.
  • Part ways later? Everything still stays with you.
