Why a website

Social pages are for people who know you. A website is for everyone else.

Facebook, Nextdoor, Instagram

Found by your existing circle

Great for neighbors and past customers. But a stranger searching "lawn care Denver" at 9pm rarely lands on a social profile, and you don't control how it appears.

Your own website

Found by new customers

Google can index it, show it for what you do and where you do it, and send people straight to your phone number. It works while you're on the job.

How it works

Almost no effort on your part.

Send me your business name, contact info, services and a few photos. I take it from there.

  1. Send the basics

    Business name, contact info, services offered, and a few photos. A text or email is plenty.

  2. See a free preview

    I build your site and send you a private link. No payment, no obligation to move forward.

  3. Love it? Launch.

    Pay the one-time setup, and I publish it, set it up for Google, and handle hosting from then on.

Customize as much or as little as you want. Happy with the first draft? Done. Want to tweak wording, colors or photos? Just say so.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What counts as a "small edit"?

Anything that changes content without changing the structure: updated hours, prices, phone numbers, service descriptions, swapped photos, a new testimonial or seasonal notice. Adding whole new pages or redesigning the layout is a bigger project, and I'll quote that separately.

Do I own my domain?

Yes. Your custom domain is registered in your name, so if you ever leave, it goes with you.

Is there a contract?

No. The monthly fee is month to month and you can cancel anytime.

What do I need to send you?

Your business name, contact info, the services you offer, and a few photos. That's it. If you have a logo or Google Business page, send that too, but it's not required.

What if I don't like the preview?

Then you owe nothing. The preview is free, and you only pay the setup fee if you decide to launch.

How long does it take?

Most previews are ready within a few days of getting your info. Once you approve, launch is quick.

Will it actually show up on Google?

I set your site up for indexing and write it with local search in mind. No one can promise a specific ranking, but a real website gives you a far better shot than having none.

Do you work with businesses outside Denver?

Yes. I'm based in Denver, but everything is done online, so I work with small businesses anywhere. I set up your site and Google listing for the area you serve, wherever that is.
