You'll be talking to the person who builds it.
No account manager, no offshore team, no $500 template with your logo dropped on it. One person scopes it, builds it, launches it — and still picks up the phone after it's live.
Straight answer within a day — including if you don't need me.
Recent work
Maricopa Pools
A multi-crew pool builder in Arizona. Built and running in production.
- ✓A separate page for every service they sell, so searches land on the right one
- ✓Structured data and a sitemap, so Google can read what they do
- ✓Their real licence number and reviews on the page — nothing invented to fill space
What you actually get
Five things most of these sites skip.
Measured mobile speed
Not "fast" as a promise. A before-and-after score you can run yourself and check.
A lead alert tested on your phone
Someone fills the form, your phone goes off. Tested on your actual handset before launch, not assumed.
Your real reviews and licence
Pulled from your Google listing and your paperwork. Nothing invented to fill a gap.
One page per service
So the person searching for the one thing you do actually lands on it.
A person who answers
After launch, not just before the invoice. Hosting, monitoring and monthly edits are on me for three months.
Pricing
Fixed price, agreed before I start.
No hourly billing and no scope drift. Two rounds of revisions are included in all three.
A single strong page. For businesses with no website, or a Facebook page doing the job of one.

Why these prices. They're founding rates, and they're for the first ten clients — the struck-through figure is what the work lists at afterwards. I'm not pretending it's a sale. I'm buying three things with the discount: a case study, an honest review, and two introductions if the work deserves them. If it doesn't, you keep all three.
How it runs
Four steps, no surprises.
We talk
Twenty minutes. I look at what you've got and tell you what I'd change — whether or not you hire me.
You approve a price
Fixed, in writing, before anything starts. Half up front, half when you sign it off. No hourly, no surprises.
I build it
If copy or photos are slow to arrive, I write a first draft so nothing stalls waiting on you.
It launches, and I stay
Hosting, monitoring and monthly edits included for three months. Then it's your call.
Tell me the business and the town.
I'll come back with what I'd do and what it costs. No pitch deck, no discovery-call funnel, no obligation.
