Terms
The short version, and the slightly longer one.
The short version: the Free Website Review is free and is our opinion. The pricing page governs monthly plans, and the written quote you accept governs quoted work. Nobody guarantees rankings.
The Free Website Review
The review is a written opinion about your website, prepared in good faith by a person who builds websites for a living. The review is free, yours to keep, and obligates you to nothing. Following the advice guarantees no particular result.
Paid work
The pricing page describes the monthly plans: the build fee, the monthly, and what each includes. Paying the build fee accepts those terms. Quoted work comes with a written quote stating the scope, the price, and the schedule, and the accepted quote is the agreement. Where either is silent, these terms apply. Where they disagree, the quote wins.
No guarantees
We do not guarantee search rankings, call volume, or revenue, because nobody controls Google, the AI answer engines, or your customers. We do promise to do the work described and to tell you the truth about the work.
Ownership
Your domain is registered in your name and is yours from day one. So are your content, photos, business information, Google Business Profile, phone numbers, and email accounts. On a monthly plan, the website, its code, and its design belong to Sticky Mule for the first twelve months and are licensed to you while the monthly is paid. After twelve paid months the website is yours, and we hand you the files on request. Buy the site sooner for a price we give you in writing. If you cancel before twelve months without a buyout, we take the site down at the end of the billing month. On quoted work, the website, its code, and its content become yours when you pay for the project. Our own tools, templates, and know how stay ours, and we reuse them.

Liability
To the extent the law allows, our liability for anything arising from this site or the Free Website Review is limited to zero, because you paid zero. For paid work, liability is limited to the amount you paid us for the work.
Governing law
Tennessee law applies, and disputes are handled in Maury County.
