01SEARCH VISIBILITY IN TAMPA BAY

Standing out in a crowded search page

Most customers won't find just your business when they search — they'll find a full page of options, and the first few results get nearly all the attention. That's why every site is built around clean structure, fast load times, and copy written around the terms your customers actually search for. A homepage no one finds isn't doing its job — the goal is a site that shows up when it matters.

WHO YOU'RE HIRING

Just me — no handoffs

I design and build every site myself, from the first email to launch day. There's no account manager, no outsourced dev team, and no getting passed between departments. You're talking directly to the person doing the work, and you'll get a real answer whenever you ask where things stand.

02THE BASELINE ON EVERY BUILD

What every project includes

These fundamentals stay the same no matter which package you choose — only the amount of site built on top of them changes.

1

A direct working relationship

No account manager relaying messages back and forth — you work directly with me from start to finish.

2

Designed for every device

Your site looks and works well on phones, tablets, and desktop monitors alike.

3

Search-friendly from the start

Page titles, headings, and load times are set up correctly from day one, not patched on later.

4

Built with current, reliable tools

Modern frameworks and clean code, so the site stays easy to maintain for years to come.

5

Regular updates along the way

You'll hear from me as the project moves forward, not just once at the end.

6

A walkthrough when it's done

Once your site is live, I'll show you how to make simple updates yourself, if you'd like to.

7

Integrates with what you use

Scheduling, payments, or a CRM — the tools you already rely on get connected to your new site.

8

Research before design begins

I take time to understand your competitors and customers before any design work starts.

03HOW A PROJECT RUNS

Five clear phases, start to finish

No surprises about scope, timeline, or what happens next.

Discovery

We talk through what your business does, who your customers are, and what the site needs to accomplish.

Design

A custom design comes together over a couple of review rounds, refined until it feels right.

Launch

Tested across devices, then launched with hosting and analytics set up and ready.

05

Planning

Site structure, content, and the terms your customers search for, mapped out before any design begins.

Development

The approved design gets built into a full, working site, with any tools you need integrated.

01

Talk it through

What the business does, who it's for, and what the site needs to actually accomplish.

02

Map it out

Pages, content, and what people actually search for, sketched before any design work.

03

Shape it

The design takes shape with a couple of review rounds before anything is final.

04

Build it out

The full site gets built from the approved design, tools and integrations included.

05

Ship it

Cross-device checks, then deployment with hosting and analytics wired up.

Not sure which tier fits?

Some projects don't map neatly onto a single package — maybe it's bigger than a template, or needs something specific like a members-only area or a multi-location setup. Tell me what you have in mind and you'll get a clear, honest quote back.

05WORTH KNOWING UP FRONT

Common questions

The things people usually want to know before starting a project.

01How do you land on a price?
Page count, how custom the design is, and how much needs building behind the scenes (store, bookings, integrations) are the three biggest factors. You'll get a number in writing before any work starts — not an estimate that grows once you've committed.
02Only working with Tampa Bay businesses?
Tampa Bay is the focus, but the work happens remotely either way, so location isn't really a limiting factor for anyone in the U.S.
03What's a realistic timeline?
A single-page or small site can be live inside two weeks. Something with a store, custom design, or a lot of content usually runs two to three months. You'll get an actual date range up front, based on your specific project — not a generic range.
04Will this get me on the first page of Google?
Nobody who's honest can promise a ranking — anyone who does is guessing. What's guaranteed is the technical groundwork: clean code, fast pages, and content structured around real search terms. From there, rankings build over time as the site earns trust.
05Who owns the site once it's finished?
You do — fully. Domain, code, every asset. If you ever want to move to a different developer or platform, nothing is locked behind a login only I control.
06What happens after launch day?
Hosting, backups, and security updates start around $50 a month depending on the site. If you'd rather not touch it at all, a monthly plan can cover routine content changes too — that gets scoped alongside your original quote.
