How it works
Four steps. You do the first one.
A 20-minute chat
In person or on the phone. What you do, who you do it for, your hours, your best photos, two sites you like.
We build it
Hand-coded, so it loads fast and nothing breaks. You see a preview link within days.
One round of changes
Tell us what to tweak. Small second round if needed.
Launch and care
Live on your domain, linked to Google, with a one-page sheet on how to ask for edits.

See your homepage before you spend anything.
Tell us about your business. Within a few days you get a link to a real homepage mock-up with your name, services and reviews on it. If you like it, we finish the site. If not, no hard feelings.
Questions
Things people ask before they say yes.
Do I need to know anything technical?
No. You answer a few questions and send photos. We handle the domain, hosting, forms and Google. If you already own a domain, we point it at the new site for you.
Who owns the website?
You do. The domain is in your name, and if you ever leave the care plan you get the files and simple hosting instructions.
I already have a Facebook page. Isn't that enough?
Keep it. A website is where Google sends people who search for your service, and it still works when Facebook changes its rules. We link your site, your Facebook page and your Google listing together.
Can you guarantee I'll rank first on Google?
No, and anyone who promises that is guessing. We build the site the way Google likes it, set up your Business Profile properly and write pages for the services and neighborhoods you serve. That's what moves the needle for a local business.
What if I want changes later?
On a care plan, two edits a month are included and bigger changes are quoted up front. Without one, edits are $75 an hour, rounded to the quarter hour.
About
Hi, I'm Carson.
I live in Indianapolis and I build websites for the businesses I drive past every day: the HVAC van, the barbershop on the corner, the cafe with the line out the door. I keep the prices fixed and the turnaround short because that's what I'd want if it were my shop. You'll deal with me from the first chat to launch.
