This page sets out the community’s offer and prices, from Sean Dinwiddie’s Webmastery. Administrators, the owners and office staff who run their own site and systems after handover, find the community’s recordings and manuals in its library, discuss the work with other members and put what they learn to work in their own offices. Webmasters need no membership tier to join the team, and those on it reach the library and its discussions through their work: Joining the team sets out the terms.
Who the memberships are for
Memberships are for administrators, and for webmasters who want more mentorship and camaraderie. Webmasters on the Sean Dinwiddie’s Webmastery team belong through the quality of their work; no fee, course or purchase stands in the way.
The memberships
The online country club for administrators offers three tiers:
1. Beta Access for early signups
Beta Access is for early signups: a first look at the community’s library and its discussions.
2. General Access: $1,000 a month
General Access opens the community’s library (its recordings, member demonstrations, user guides and manuals) and its discussions, for putting the practice to work in your own office. The lessons themselves stay open to every reader.
3. Inner Circle: $4,000 a month
The Inner Circle is for members who want the closest mentorship: advanced topics and personalized guidance, in the three ways set out below. It is fully booked.
Course content
Beside the open lessons, the course content is the community’s library: community recordings, member demonstrations, user guides and manuals. It serves every level of practice, from beginners to seasoned administrators, and follows the course, from user stories, behavior-driven development and functional reactive programming to the modules built on them.
What membership brings
The practice keeps improving, and the lessons are revised as it does. A seasoned administrator and a newcomer read the same lessons, and each takes from them as much as their practice is ready for.
What the community and the team bring to a member’s work in software development and consulting:
- Inner Circle mentorship ($4,000 a month, fully booked). Apart from any client retainer, the member chooses how the mentorship runs: a worked answer done for them, the work done with them, or coaching while they do it themselves. Work the team builds for a member’s own business or clients is a client job, scoped in writing and priced in shares of the published fees, like any other.
- Agency services. Each is a client job, scoped in writing and priced in shares of the published fees, and together they help a member turn first inquiries into scoped work. They cover the path from a first contact to an inquiry, through ads, social media, websites, email, video and networking. They also cover each phase of a serious inquiry: discovery, scoping, maintaining scope, engaging subcontractors and delivering work held to one standard.
- The team’s expertise. The Sean Dinwiddie’s Webmastery team holds every deliverable to one standard, across design, development, engineering, architecture, DevOps and security. It also provides onboarding, style guides and technical documentation that keep software maintained, and these follow the course’s three subjects: user stories, behavior-driven development (BDD) and functional reactive programming (FRP). The stack follows the project: many brochure sites run on WordPress, set to update themselves, while custom apps follow the chain the course teaches, from Gherkin scenarios through Redux Toolkit to a Haskell (Servant) API on Postgres.
- Active documentation. The course, open to every reader, covers the practice from the first user story to the review before launch, then agents and small language models, and is revised as the practice improves.
- Community. The online country club for administrators, where members meet at meetups such as the KFalls AI Meetup, bring their questions and learn from one another’s work.
At Sean Dinwiddie’s Webmastery, the community is held to the same standard as the client work.
How webmasters on the team are paid
Webmasters on the Sean Dinwiddie’s Webmastery team work as subcontractors from their own practice and keep 70% of the fee on their client work.
Membership prices never change those terms: on every job run through the agency, the webmaster keeps 70% of the fee and the agency keeps 30%, and each job’s written subcontract names the fee.
When prices change
Membership prices can change; a fee written into a signed scope does not.
