Common Questions and Answers

Like you, we are a small business. We understand that you don't have tons of money when starting. We also know that you want to grow and we want you to grow. As providing you with this essential package, we know we will be working with you long-term as we grow your business together.

Our entire team, all in the United States, works remotely so that we don't have to spend money on an office. Do we lose business sometimes because of it? Absolutely. But we value an outstanding work/life balance, and those who don't agree really don't align with our philosophy of pricing things affordably. This also allows us to hire the best talent across the United States.

Everything is also done in-house. We don't outsource to any other company. We believe 100% in American made and our owner, John, is an Army Veteran.

No, we will do it for you. And yes, it's included in the price. We get volume pricing, so our price will automatically be more affordable than you could.

Each year your domain comes up for renewal. We pay the annual fees for your domain and part of your web hosting costs when everything is under our control.

You do! We build everything, and you own it. If we do poorly and want to leave, you can take everything.

We want you to have a foundation for growing your business and your American dream. We hope you never leave, which is why we strive to give you more value than anyone else.

In most cases, we're done in one to two days. We give ourselves five days as we know you might want changes, and sometimes, we have several new websites that start on the same day. We want to make certain we meet and exceed your expectations every day.

Your essentials package only needs the core foundational elements, so there is no reason to charge you extra for something you don't need. This is why it's only $20/month (you can pay annually as well -- and we appreciate it when you do). You will receive the following:

  • Website hosting with daily backups.
  • Email hosting with daily backups.
  • Malware and virus monitoring (and removal if it would happen -- since 2013, it has never happened to us [knock on wood]).

Yes, the 12-month hosting and maintenance contract is required, which helps us offer such a competitive package price. You can choose to pay this monthly or annually (our preferred as it's less paperwork on our end).

You have access to all of our other features when you're ready. This is a non-pushy deal so if you want to know about this we can definitely talk about moving the needle on the search engines, reputation management, customer relationship management, graphic design, social media management, and more.

You also have full access to do everything yourself as well. You're not locked into us for anything. This is what helps us stand apart from everyone else. We want to see your business grow. Do we want you to do it with us? Absolutely. But, if you want to do it, use another company, etc. we are just glad we've helped you get started and moving to fulfill your business dreams.

Once we have the initial site setup, we will give you access to everything we've set up, where you will be the primary administrator.

  • Administrator access and complete control of your
    • Website
    • Google Search Console
    • Google Business Profile (GBP) -- and we help get you verified
    • Email at your domain
    • Bing Pages -- and we help get you verified

Yes, you can! Bing we're building you on the most popular platform, WordPress, you have the ability to do online sales through the website. There is more work involved, on both of our parts, but you can get a fully operational website for the same price. We will have to get additional information from you, which could take longer but we will still get done with our parts within the five days or less.

What we will need from you is below and we will help you out every step of the way and in a non-technical manner.

  • Payment provider
  • Shipping information
  • Tax information
  • A couple products (we just "swap out" a page for a product). We will show you how to add products as there is no limit to how many you can have. We just limit to how many we setup for you.

As a full service marketing agency we have options, like scheduling available. They're also not expensive. Scheduling can connect with your Google calendar (and others) for real time information.

AI phone, AI chat, and more are also available if you want to go up a level.

The prices for this are equally affordable.

We know that when you're just starting out that you might not have pictures or even content. What handle each differently. Whether you need content or images we will help you along the entire process and we're not going to charge you for it either as this, to us, is another way of helping you grow your business.

Content

When you don't have content we will ask you to write down some bullet points that you want to cover for the page(s) you don't have content. This can be your homepage, about page, services pages, and service area pages. We will then have our writers, not AI, write content that is optimized for the search engines while also being valuable to your visitors to help convince them to buy from you.

Your voice/tone is idea but when you have nothing it's best to have something that is optimized. If you have content already our writers can help you improve it for the search engines, if you want.

Images

We will find publically available that are authorized to be used by anyone (e.g., public domain) and stock photography that matches the content that you have on your site. This shouldn't be where you stop. As time goes on all of the public domain and stock photography should be replaced with actual photos that truly align with your business. This gives a more personal touch that will further separate you from your competition.

Additionally, we always encourage, if it fits your business, to do before/after images so that your customers can see the true quality of your work. This is great for landscapers, lawn care, construction, HVAC, and plumbers (e.g., the service trades).

We know that once you go live the marketing is only just beginning. We've created a great foundation for you to make that great first impression. Now it's time to keep the momentum and move the needle. We've created a block article here, Marketing Success Starts With You: How to Use Your Website and Online Tools to Grow Your Business, that covers all the basics you will need to do.

In marketing nothing we do is a secret. Everything can be done by you. The article above showcases the main items you should do to keep your needle moving forward.

I know you want the needle to move quickly. It doesn't. Think of your marketing as a marathon. It's definitely not a sprint. One week you will be at the top three spots. The next you will be in in fourth or even further down. By staying consistent you will eventually be in the top three spots (e.g., the Map Pack) to where your business is beating the competition.

Samples

Our Essentials Package offers businesses a strong, professional foundation online. Many of our featured examples are maintained directly by the business owners themselves — showcasing their commitment and personal touch. While many clients eventually choose to upgrade for full-service support and refinements, Essentials provides the flexibility to manage your site independently or easily transition to professional maintenance whenever you're ready.

Five Day Timeline

Being this is an Web Design Essential Package everything moves a lot more quickly than a regular website design that can take weeks. We'll have everything from start to finish completed within five business days for you. Below is how the typical essentials plan goes. It is highly likely that on the third day we may be making your site live.

Discovery & Onboarding (Day 0)

We begin with a conversation to understand what your business goals, current challenges are, ideal clients, and key services that you're offering.

We let you do most of the talking so that we can gather as much knowledge about how you run your business.

Onboarding & Invoicing (Day 0)

We add you into our systems, digitize and attach our notes to your account, set up the billing, and send you your one-time $299 invoice and prep your monthly $20/month hosting (you can pay annually as well).

We send a request for you to send us your images, content, and logo information. Anything you don't have we will work, with you, on filling those gaps.

Development & Build (Day 1)

All work begins once payment is received. We know that gathering all of your content does take time. We will then buy your domain name, unless you already have it.

We take all of the information you've provided, your branding and prefences we start hand crafting your custom website design.

Content Population (Day 2)

By the time we have the core design crafted for you we add and format your content, including service descriptions, contact information, photos, and any other information you've provided into a professionally polished design. This is when we start writing the SEO (search engine) elements.

Review & Revisions (Day 3-5)

We will send you a link to your test site. This is where you can provide feedback on everything that we've done for you. In many cases the changes are minimal. We will then implement the tweaks that you've presented to us. This is your chance to catch anything that doesn't feel right or needs adjustment before launch.

Launch (Day 5)

We take your website live on your domain, ensuring all forms, links, and integrations function perfectly. We also submit the site to search engines and set up analytics tracking.

Handoff (Day 5)

We provide information for logins and any documentation to show you how to manage and update your website yourself. You'll have everything you need to take control—or you can request ongoing support.
