Web design & development · Los Angeles

Custom websites that turn visitors into customers.

  • No templates
  • Built for phones first
  • You own it outright

Why sites underperform

Your website should be your best salesperson. Most are a brochure.

For most service businesses, the website is the first impression and the place the decision gets made. Yet most small-business sites are built to exist rather than to sell.

  • It looks like everyone else’s. The same template, stock photos and vague headline as three competitors.
  • It’s slow on a phone. Most visitors arrive on mobile, and every extra second loading is a reason to go back to Google.
  • It doesn’t ask for anything. No clear next step, a phone number buried in the footer, a form with ten fields.
  • Nobody knows what it produces. No tracking, so there’s no way to tell how many calls and quote requests it actually brings in.

A custom site fixes all four at once. That’s the only kind we build.

Services

Everything it takes to launch a site that sells.

Strategy, design, copy and build from one team, so nothing gets lost between a designer, a copywriter and a developer.

  • Design

    Custom web design

    A design made for your business, your customers and your work, starting from a blank page, not a theme. Clear hierarchy, strong typography, and a layout that leads people to call or book.

    • Sitemap and page structure
    • Homepage and inner pages
    • Mobile and desktop layouts
  • Build

    Development

    Hand-coded, fast-loading sites that work on every screen and meet accessibility standards, with the technical SEO groundwork done properly from day one.

    • Accessible
    • SEO-ready structure
  • Words

    Copywriting that converts

    Plain, specific copy that explains what you do, why you’re the right choice and what happens next. Written with you, in your voice.

    • Headlines and page copy
    • Calls to action
    • Service and location pages
  • After launch

    Tracking, hosting and care

    Calls and form submissions tracked from launch, so you can see what the site brings in. Plus hosting, updates and small changes when you need them.

    • Call and form tracking
    • Hosting and backups
    • Monthly updates

Need real photos or video? Our in-house production team can shoot your projects, team and process for the site, so you don’t need a separate photographer.

Process

From first call to launch, in four steps.

You see the design before a line of code is written, and nothing goes live until you’re happy with it.

  1. Discover

    We learn your services, customers and competitors, and agree what the site needs to achieve.

  2. Design

    Wireframes first, then full designs for mobile and desktop. You review and request changes.

  3. Build

    We hand-code the approved design, write and load the copy, and set up tracking.

  4. Launch

    Testing on real devices, then go-live. We stay on for updates, hosting and improvements.

Every site includes

What you can hold us to.

  • 0

    Templates or page builders. Every site is designed and coded for the business it belongs to.

  • 100%

    Yours. You own the design, the code and the domain.

  • Day one

    Call and form tracking live at launch, so you can see what the site brings in.

When you want more traffic

A great site needs visitors. We run Google Ads too.

Once your site is converting, Google Ads puts it in front of people searching for exactly what you do, today. We manage the campaigns, build landing pages that match each ad, and track every call back to the keyword that produced it.

  • Keyword and search-term management
  • Landing pages matched to each campaign
  • Cost per lead, reported monthly

FAQ

Questions, answered plainly.

How much does a website cost?

It depends on the number of pages and features. After a short call we’ll send a fixed quote, so there are no surprises. [Add starting price or typical range.]

How long does it take?

Most sites take [X–Y weeks] from first call to launch. The biggest factor is how quickly content and feedback come back.

Do I own the website?

Yes. You own the design, the code and the domain. If you ever move on, you take everything with you.

Can you redesign my existing site?

Yes. We’ll review what’s working, keep what earns its place, and rebuild the rest. We also handle redirects so you don’t lose search rankings you’ve already earned.

Will I be able to update it myself?

For simple edits, yes. For anything bigger, our care plan covers updates so you don’t have to touch code. [Confirm editing setup.]

Do you write the copy?

Yes. We interview you, then write the headlines and page copy. You review and approve everything before launch.

Do you do SEO and Google Ads?

Every site is built with SEO foundations in place. For paid traffic we manage Google Ads, with a free two-week trial of our ad management. Ad spend is paid to Google directly.
