A Thryv Managed Website is a done-for-you website service where Thryv's expert website consultants design, write, and launch your site, then manage ongoing updates so you never have to do it yourself. If you want a professional web presence without the time investment of building it yourself, this is the option for you. After the site is built, you can contact our team at any time for changes. In addition, you are given access to the full website editor if you'd rather make changes yourself.

What You Get With a Thryv Managed Website

A Thryv Managed Website delivers a fully built, professionally written website in 20–30 days. Your site includes contact forms, calls to action, and professional copywriting for up to 15 pages, created by a dedicated website consultant who learns your business before building anything.

Unlike the AI Website Builder, where you design and edit the site yourself, a Managed Website means Thryv handles changes for you after launch. You submit update requests and your consultant takes care of the rest. This is ideal for business owners who want a great website without managing it themselves.

How to Purchase a Thryv Managed Website

A Thryv Managed Website can be purchased from My Account. To access My Account, click on the navigation icon in the top left corner, then select My Account from the menu. 

In My Account, click on Website Builder in your left-hand navigation.

From here, you can either manage your existing sites, or click Build new website to get started.

Click on Purchase in the Professional section to get started. 

First, you'll need to schedule your website consultation appointment. Select an available date and time from the scheduler. The appointment typically lasts about 1 hour. Make sure to take note of the time zone drop-down, which can be toggled under Available Timeslots. Once you've selected a date and time, click on Next

Next, you'll need to provide your contact information. This will be given to your website consultant to coordinate your appointment and in case any follow-up communication is necessary. Enter both a phone number and email address, and click on Next

On the final screen, all that's left to do is review your information and complete your purchase! Make sure your contact information is correct, and click on Complete Purchase. At this point, your card on file will be charged for the one-time design fee and the first month of service.

What Happens After You Purchase

Once your purchase is complete, you will meet with your assigned website consultant for a 1-hour kickoff call. During this call, you walk your consultant through your business, your vision for the site, and any goals you want the website to achieve. Your consultant coordinates the design, writes the copy, secures your domain, and ultimately launches your site within 20–30 days.

After your site launches, the full website editor is added to your account. You can log in and make changes yourself at any time. Prefer to have Thryv handle it? You can also submit update requests to your consultant and they'll take care of the changes for you. For instructions on submitting update requests, see How to Request Updates to Your Thryv Managed Website.
