A note · from the person who runs this
I built WDT because the small businesses I’d worked with kept getting the same bad deal — a builder site they didn’t own, on a platform they couldn’t leave, for a price that quietly climbed every year. This is the version I’d want, if I were the one buying.
The site is real. The press is small on purpose. If it ends up being for you, the brief form is a sentence away.

About this note · honest
Voice and copy on this page are still settling.
The structure of About is locked. The note above is a sketch of the real one — the actual founder voice is being worked out in a separate session. Tone may shift before launch; the colophon facts won’t.
