Websites · 4 min read

Websites used to cost thousands. Now it takes a few hours.

Not long ago, a custom website for a small business meant thousands of dollars and weeks of back and forth with a designer. For a lot of owners, that was the end of the conversation. The site never got built, or it got built once and never touched again.

That has changed. With AI doing the heavy lifting, I can build a custom website for your business in a few hours of work, and I charge $549 for it. One service, one price, one time.

What you get

I build the whole site: the design, the writing, the pages, and the setup that helps people find you. Then I publish it through GitHub, the same system professional developers use to keep website files safe and up to date. You own the domain, the files, and the content.

What you do

Almost nothing. All you have to do is buy your domain name, the web address people type to find you. That runs about $20 a year, and I can walk you through it.

A little about SEO

SEO is just helping Google understand what your business does and where you do it, so the right people see you when they search. I build the basics in from day one: clear page titles and descriptions, the right information about your business behind the scenes, and a site that loads fast and works well on a phone. If you want the plain English version, I wrote a guide to local SEO for Salem area businesses.

A website works best when it is connected

A site on its own is like a sign in an empty field. It does its best work when it is linked to the other places Google and your customers look.

  • Your Google Business Profile, so you show up on maps and in local results.
  • Google Search Console, so Google knows your site exists and can tell you how it is doing.
  • Your reviews, which build trust and help you rank. Here is why reviews and your Business Profile matter.
  • Your social pages, which point people back to your site.

Those connections are what turn a website into a steady source of customers. I can walk you through each one, or run them for you every month through Claude, Working for You.

If your business needs a website, or needs a better one, tell me what you do and we will take it from there.
