Everything web design covers
Your proposal only includes what your business actually needs.
Ecommerce websites
An online store that loads fast, makes buying easy on a phone and is built to show up on Google and in Shopping.
Landing pages
A page built for one campaign and one action, so the people your ads bring in call or fill out the form instead of leaving.
Website redesign
Your old website rebuilt to bring customers, keeping your domain and everything Google already knows about you.
Website speed
Your website loading fast on a phone, so visitors stay long enough to call you.
Website maintenance
Your website updated, backed up, fast and free of errors, with problems caught before customers notice them.
You have a website, but it doesn't bring you customers
If your site does any of this, it's sending people to your competitors.
- It looks fine on a laptop and takes forever on a phone.
- It says what a great team you are but not what you do, where or how to contact you.
- You can't change a phone number without calling the person who built it.
- Nobody has ever told you they found you through your website.
What a website built to get customers looks like
How we get there
We start from how your customers search. Each service people search for separately gets its own page, with what's included, who it's for and the questions you always get. Each page has one goal: getting the visitor to call, text or fill out a form.
We build it to load fast on a phone and to be read correctly by Google from the first day, so it's ready for SEO. We build it accessible too: readable contrast, a label on every form field and buttons that work with a keyboard, following the WCAG guidelines. And it's yours: domain, logins, copy and photos in your name.
Fast on a phone
Most of your visitors arrive on a phone. The site loads right away even on a weak signal.
Core Web Vitals in the green
One page per service
Customers searching for something specific land on the page about exactly that, instead of a generic home page.
Contact always at hand
Call, text and form buttons visible on every screen, and every lead tracked.
conversion tracking
How we build your website
Four steps, and you see every task on your tracking page.
Searches and structure
How customers search for you and which pages your site needs to answer them.
Plan and fixed quote
The page map, the copy we'll write, the fixed price and the delivery date, before you decide anything.
Design and build
We ask you, in one message, for what only you know, write the pages and build the site. You see the home page and one service page in week 2.
Launch, check and pay
We launch, redirect old addresses if there's a previous site and track every lead. You check it all, then you pay.

When a new website is worth it, and when it isn't
Worth it if
- You need a site that brings customers, and looking good is only part of that.
- You want a fixed price, a signed date and the site in your name.
- You can tell us how you work and what customers ask.
Not a fit if
- You need a custom app or a platform with user accounts.
- You need the site live within a week.
- You want a cheap template with no strategy behind it.
You pay nothing until it's done
First we look at your business, free. If it's a fit, a fixed price and a signed date, and you pay once everything in your proposal is live and you've checked it.
- Fixed quoteset before we start
- Signed deadlineusually about 6 weeks
- Everything in your nameno strings attached
We don't guarantee Google rankings, since no one outside Google controls them. We guarantee the work.

Questions about small business web design
What owners ask before ordering a website.
How much do you charge for a website?
It depends on what your site has to do: how many pages, whether there are bookings or payments, how many service areas and who writes the copy. So you get a fixed quote after the free audit, in under a week and with no obligation, and you know the exact amount before deciding. You pay once, when it's live and you've checked it.
How long does it take to build a website?
Usually about 6 weeks, with the exact date in your proposal. You pay nothing until everything in your proposal is finished and live.
Will my website show up on Google?
We build it ready for Google: structure, speed, titles and structured data. Showing up for competitive searches also takes time and, often, SEO work. We can't promise rankings; we do build the site to give you the best chance.
Which platform do you build on?
WordPress, custom-built for your business. You can edit it yourself, it doesn't tie you to us and any developer can take it over later. If your project needs something else, like a store with a large catalog, we say why in the proposal.
Can I update the website myself?
Yes. You get a short guide to change hours, prices, photos and copy. For bigger changes, you can ask us and we quote it before doing anything.
Who owns the website?
You do, 100%: domain, site, copy, photos and logins in your name. If you ever want to move, you take everything with you.
We're a web design company for small businesses. We build custom WordPress websites that load fast on a phone, explain what you do in seconds and have a page for each service customers search for, so they show up on Google and turn visits into calls, texts and forms. You get a fixed quote after a free audit and pay in one payment once it's live, with a signed delivery date and a site that's 100% yours.
More detail: Web design
Your website is working against you today
A slow or unclear site sends the people who find you to competitors whose site answers faster. Every visitor who leaves without calling is a customer you already did the work to reach.
A new site usually takes about 6 weeks, with the date signed in your proposal. In the free audit we show you what your current site does on a phone and what we'd keep.
Custom website design or a website builder
Website builders like Wix or Squarespace can be fine for getting started. They fall short when you need a page for each service and area, real speed on a phone or full control over how Google reads the site. A custom WordPress site takes more work at the start and is built around how your customers search.
WordPress is what we use for small business sites because you can edit it yourself and any developer can take it over later. For online stores it depends on the catalog, and we explain it in ecommerce website design; if you need a page for a campaign, see landing page design.
Choosing a web design company
Ask for a fixed price and a signed delivery date, check that the domain and logins will be in your name and ask how the site will show up on Google as well as how it will look. A good-looking site that nobody finds doesn't bring customers.
We work with small businesses across the US, with a published starting price, a signed date and the pay-when-it's-done guarantee: nothing until everything in your proposal is finished and live. If you already have a site that brings some visits, see website redesign first.
How much a small business website costs with us
A fixed price for your business, quoted after the free audit, because it depends on how much there is to build. It covers a custom WordPress website: a page for each service people search for, copy written from what you tell us, call and text buttons at hand, your Google Business Profile brought up to date and the site fast on a phone. You pay once, when it's live and you've checked it.
It goes up when there's more to build: a store with payments, many service areas, bookings or an old site with lots of addresses to keep. The audit tells you before we start. To compare with other quotes, read how much a website costs; every price is on our pricing page.
