September 25, 2026
- The business lookup now searches Google Maps in the town you choose and checks each business's website, so it works in towns across the United States.
- Every storefront now shows an example website for each plan, and an example storefront shows what yours looks like.
- When you open your storefront, you choose the country where you work, with the United States first.
- Ironstone is now a platform only. The Ironstone Design studio is retired, and its pages lead to the closest page on this site.
- When a client stops paying, the site stays live for 14 days and then pauses by itself, unless you keep it live and pay its site fee until your client pays.
- Growth and Agency now include a CRM that keeps your prospects and clients in one list, with where each one stands and your own notes.
- Agency includes priority support, with replies within one business day.
- Every site now has a contact form with email alerts, and the messages appear in your dashboard and your client's login.
- Your clients see their visits, calls and messages, and each live site sends a monthly report in your name, as a branded PDF on Growth and Agency.
- Every change to a site makes a version that is kept for 90 days, and you or your client can restore it in one click.
- When a client's card payment fails, your client receives reminders and a notice in your name, and you choose whether to pause the site after the notice.
- Your clients can pin comments to a preview and press Approve and pay on it.
- You can send a business an intake form that builds or updates its site from its own answers.
- Your logo and name on your storefront and client login are now included on every plan.
- The site now speaks to you directly, and prices appear only on the pricing page.
- The blog now holds guides for selling websites.
- You can change your prices in Settings, and a client who already pays keeps the price they agreed to.
- The terms now say that Ironstone is in private beta, and the meaning of that clause is unchanged.
- The trial wording on the pricing page and at checkout now speaks to you, and its terms are unchanged.
- The top level of site is called Professional everywhere, and the business lookup keeps one name.
