Websites for small local businesses

We design a demo of your site for free and send it to your phone. Like it, and we build the rest. Websites start at $1,000.

What every site comes with

A free demo first

We design a demo of your site and send it to your phone before you pay anything.

Words written with you

We write the words for every page from your answers to our questionnaire, and you approve them.

Customers fill it in on your site and it lands in your email.

Two rounds of changes

Included in every site price.

Our work guarantee

If something we built breaks, we fix it free for as long as you're on a monthly plan. Without a plan, for 30 days after launch.

Three sizes

No two businesses need the same thing, so we price each site to fit. You get a rough price within 1 business day.

Small site

Up to 5 pages: home, services, about and contact. For most trades and shops. See the website we built for a handyman.

Full site

Up to 15 pages, with a page for each service and each town you serve. For a business with several services or towns.

Booking, menus or a small shop

Up to 30 pages, with online booking, a full menu or a small shop set up and connected. For restaurants, salons and shops.

Prices and the fine print

Built so Google can read it

Google publishes its own guides for site owners, and every site we build follows them. Google also says meeting them doesn't guarantee a page will show up, so we promise the build, not a ranking.

A page for each thing you do

Google's guide says a site organized in a logical way helps search engines and people understand it. On a full site, each service and each town gets its own page.

Written for people

Google says the length of a page alone doesn't matter for ranking, so we write for your customers, not to a word count.

Clear page titles

Each page gets its own title and description, the words people see in Google's results.

Phone first

Google ranks sites using the phone version of their pages, so we design the phone layout first, with the same content as the desktop one.

Fast to load

Google says its speed measures, called Core Web Vitals, are used in ranking, though relevance still comes first. We keep pages light.

Your details in Google's format

We add the business markup Google documents, so it can read your name, address, phone and hours. Google doesn't promise any special result from it.

Search Console

We connect your site to Google Search Console, Google's free tool that shows which searches bring people to your site.

From Google Search Central: SEO Starter Guide, Search Essentials, mobile-first indexing, Core Web Vitals, local business markup; Search Console Help.
