Extra development capacity without hiring
Many US marketing, design and SEO agencies sell websites and ongoing care but do not want to keep a full development team on payroll for uneven demand. RATdeck can work behind the scenes as a white-label production partner, building and maintaining websites under your agency’s brand while you own the client relationship.
We work remotely from Tamil Nadu, India. For US agencies, that usually means work handed off at the end of your day can be progressed overnight and ready for review the next morning.
What we can deliver for agencies
- WordPress website builds: from your approved designs (Figma, Adobe XD or PDF) or from a wireframe and brand guide.
- Website redesigns and migrations: including URL mapping and 301 redirects to protect your client’s search visibility.
- Landing pages: campaign pages with forms and analytics events.
- Website maintenance: updates, backups, uptime and form checks for your client portfolio, reported in your format.
- Speed optimization: Core Web Vitals audits and fixes for slow client sites.
- Technical SEO implementation: implementing your SEO team’s recommendations, including redirects, schema markup, metadata, internal links and sitemap fixes.
- Design support: presentation decks, PDFs and graphics for pitches and client reports.
How a white-label engagement works
- Agreement and confidentiality: we agree scope, confidentiality and non-solicitation terms in writing before any client details are shared.
- Unbranded delivery: staging sites, documentation and handover notes carry no RATdeck branding unless you ask for it.
- Written scope per project: each job gets a scope, estimate and milestone dates so you can quote your client with confidence.
- Single point of contact: your project manager talks to one person at RATdeck. We do not contact your clients directly unless you ask us to.
- Review on staging: work is shared on a staging site for your QA before anything goes live.
- Handover: access, credentials and documentation are delivered to you, and ownership follows your agreement with your client.
What we need from you, and what we check
Each project starts with a short brief: the client’s goals, approved designs or references, content status, hosting details, deadlines and your QA expectations. The clearer the brief, the more accurate the estimate.
Before we hand work back, we check it against a standard list:
- Responsive layouts on common phone, tablet and desktop widths.
- Form delivery, spam protection and thank-you states.
- Titles, meta descriptions, heading structure and image alt text.
- 301 redirects for any changed URLs, and an updated XML sitemap.
- Basic accessibility: color contrast, labels, focus states and keyboard navigation.
- Page speed on key templates, with caching and image optimization configured.
- Plugin list documented, with no unlicensed or nulled software.
Pricing for agencies
Agency work is quoted per project or as an agreed monthly allocation after we understand your typical scopes. As reference points, RATdeck’s published direct-client packages start at $999 for a one-page Quick Launch, $2,250 for a five-page Business Builder, $3,999 for Search Ready and $7,999 for Local Growth, and Website Care maintenance starts at $225 per month. Your proposal will state agency pricing, payment milestones and turnaround times in writing.
Is RATdeck the right partner?
We are a good fit for agencies that value clear scope, maintainable WordPress builds and honest estimates. We are not the right partner if you need on-site staff in the US, in-house legal or compliance sign-off, or guaranteed SEO rankings. If you would like to test the relationship, start with a single landing page or a maintenance onboarding for one client site.

Frequently asked questions
Will my clients know RATdeck built the site?
Not unless you want them to. Deliverables, staging sites and documentation are unbranded, and we do not contact your clients directly.
Can you work from our designs?
Yes. We build from Figma, Adobe XD or PDF designs, or from wireframes and a brand guide, and flag technical issues before development starts.
Do you sign NDAs?
Yes. Confidentiality and non-solicitation terms are agreed in writing before client details are shared.
What time zones do you work with?
RATdeck works remotely from India with US agencies. We agree overlap hours for calls and use the time difference for overnight production and review turnarounds.
Can we start with a small test project?
Yes. A single landing page, a speed optimization pass or maintenance onboarding for one client site is a practical way to test turnaround, quality and communication.
Do you provide ongoing maintenance for agency clients?
Yes. We can maintain a portfolio of client sites under your brand, with updates, backups, uptime and form checks and a monthly summary you can pass on to clients.
