Why work with me

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

Eight things every small-business site should have. Most agencies charge extra for each one. I bundle them because anything less isn't a real website.

  • 01

    Custom-built, not cookie-cutter

    Your site is coded for your business — not a Wix drag-and-drop. Fast, clean, and yours.

  • 02

    SEO baked in from day one

    Schema, metadata, keyword structure, local targeting. Built so Google ranks you — not your competitor.

  • 03

    AI-powered monthly content

    A fresh, keyword-optimized blog post every month, automatically. Most small businesses never publish. You will.

  • 04

    Local SEO setup

    Google Business Profile optimization, local citations, service-area targeting. This is how you land in the map pack.

  • 05

    Mobile-first performance

    Over 60% of local searches happen on phones. Your site loads fast and looks sharp on every device.

  • 06

    SSL, security, uptime

    HTTPS everywhere. Cloudflare-backed. Always up, always protected. Google won't penalize you.

  • 07

    Monthly performance reports

    See exactly how many people are finding you, what they do, and what's working. Plain English — no jargon.

  • 08

    Ongoing updates included

    Content edits, seasonal swaps, new service pages as you grow. You never have to log into a CMS.

Process

No-drama process. Four steps.

You're running a business. You don't have time for six-week discovery phases and 40-page strategy decks. Here's how it actually goes.

  1. 01

    Quick call

    30 minutes. We talk through your business, your customers, and where leads come from today. I tell you what I'd change and quote a number. No pitch deck.

  2. 02

    Design + build

    I design in the browser and share a live preview. You click around, react, redline. Two rounds of revisions are built in. Typical turnaround: 2–3 weeks.

  3. 03

    Launch + rank

    We launch the site, submit it to Google, and turn on SEO tracking. The first blog post goes live the same week. Your Google Business Profile gets tuned.

  4. 04

    Monthly care

    A new AI-written post every month. Content edits on request. A clear report each month showing what's ranking, what's converting, and what to do next.

FAQ

The questions I get asked most.

Still have questions? Send me an email. I answer them all personally.

How much does a website cost?

It depends on what you need — a 5-page service site is very different from a 30-page directory with AI booking. I quote after the first call. Every project is priced as a flat build fee plus an optional monthly care plan that covers SEO content, hosting, updates, and reporting.

How long does it take?

Most small-business sites launch in 2–3 weeks from the day we kick off. Bigger sites or ones with AI agents take longer. I'll give you a real timeline in the first call.

Do you work with businesses outside my area?

Yes — I serve clients nationwide. If you're local, I'll meet in person. If you're not, we do everything over email, Zoom, and a live preview link. Same quality either way.

What if I already have a website?

We can either rebuild it or optimize what you have. I'll audit your current site free and tell you honestly which path costs less.

Will I own my site?

Yes. You own the code, the domain, the content — all of it. If you ever want to move off, I'll hand it over clean. No hostage hosting.

What are 'AI agents' and do I need one?

AI agents are chatbots, voicebots, and SMS bots that answer customer questions, qualify leads, and book appointments automatically. Most small businesses don't need one on day one. If you're losing after-hours calls or leads are sitting unanswered, they pay for themselves fast.

Ready to stop losing leads to a bad website?

One call, 30 minutes, zero pressure. I'll tell you exactly what I'd change — whether you hire me or not.
