Custom Websites Built for Small Business

Hand-coded design, WCAG accessibility, technical SEO, and hosting care — without template lock-in or mystery fees.

Custom Web Design

Every site we build starts with a blank file, not a theme. That means no bloated CSS from a framework you don't need, no lock-in to a page builder you do not control, and no visual debt from a template built for someone else's business. If you are comparing options, read our custom website for small business guide.

All our sites include:

  • Six (6) months of optional free hosting and support on our server
  • WCAG 2.1 AA compliance
  • Mobile-first responsive layout
  • A personalized digital business card for networking
  • Hand-coded HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
  • You own your files, code, and domain plus our guide to move hosts if you need to

Americans with Disabilities Act applies to websites

Small businesses with websites face the same legal exposure as large enterprises, and demand letters are increasingly common for sites of every size.

If you are looking specifically for an ADA review of an existing site, not a full build from scratch, start with our free ADA site audit checker. You can run it on your URL with no email required. For background on WCAG in plain language, read our blog post on WCAG for small businesses. To work through fixes on your own, download our ADA checklist (adachecklist.php).

SEO Authority

Every site includes technical SEO for your tier (structure, indexability, baseline schema, launch checks). The program below is not included by default.

SEO Authority (add-on, priced separately): flat-cost bundles for technical foundation, monitoring, content, and expansion work to improve your visibility in organic search and on AI-driven surfaces (sometimes called AEO or GEO).

It typically includes:

  • Entity and name-address-phone consistency
  • Expanded JSON-LD where it helps
  • Google Business Profile alignment recommendations
  • Citation and internal-linking review
  • A llms.txt file and signals for AI crawlers
  • Reporting with prioritized next steps

A partner, not a ticket

You reach humans who built or actively maintain your site.

Support that comes with your hosting

Your site is live: now what? Every client whose site we host gets white glove care: responsive, respectful service from people who know your site — because we made it.

Support vs. change orders: While we host your site, we will provide any support your site needs to operate effectively and efficiently. If you need new integrations, additional sections or pages, or other premium features, we will be happy to provide a change order on the scope for you to consider. Read the full support FAQ.
