Websites for local businesses
Web design for local businesses that want to be found.
When someone searches for you on their phone, they should see your hours, your number and what you do, right away. I build the site so you can get back to work.
You've got enough to do already
Every day, someone looks for a business like yours. Here is what makes them give up.
“Are they open today?”
Customers give up when they can't find your hours. A good site answers in one second.
“I can't read this on my phone.”
Most people look you up on a phone, sometimes with one bar of signal. Your site should load fast and read easily.
“Which number do I call?”
One tap on your phone number should ring you. No hunting, no forms, no waiting.
How I can help
A website built around your business
Your hours, address, services and photos, laid out the way your customers look for them. Not a template with your name pasted in.
Web address, hosting and backups
I set up the technical parts and keep them running, so you never have to think about them.
Changes when you need them
New hours for the holidays, a new product, a new phone number. Tell me and I'll update the site.
What your customers will see
- Your hours and address on the very first screen
- A big button that calls you
- A map with directions to your door
- What you sell or fix, in plain words
- Photos of your place and your work
- Text big enough to read outdoors
Curious what that looks like? Look at the example sites.
How it works
- Tell me about your business. A short call or email is enough. You know your business better than anyone.
- Look over a draft. Ask for changes to anything you don't like. Nothing goes live until you say so.
- Customers find you. I launch the site and stay available if something needs changing.
Questions you might have
How much does it cost?
It depends on how many pages you need. I'll give you a price in writing before I start, so there are no surprises.
How long does it take?
Most small sites take two to four weeks. The biggest factor is how quickly we get your photos and details together.
Do I need to know anything technical?
No. You tell me about the business, and I handle the rest, including the web address and hosting.
Will it work on phones?
Yes. I build for phones first, and every site also works with a keyboard and with scripts blocked.
What if I want changes later?
Just ask. Small updates like hours, photos and prices are quick.
Hi, I'm Brett.
I build websites for people who would rather run their business than fight with a site. I'll ask plain questions, give you plain answers, and tell you the price before I start.
Ready when you are
Tell me what you do and who your customers are. I'll tell you what your site needs and what it will cost. No pressure, no pushy follow-ups.
