The questions local business owners ask most about websites, Google and getting found, with straight answers and our own prices.

How much does a small business website cost?

Ours: a one-page website is $500 and a three-page website $1,000 (introductory prices for websites ordered by December 31, 2026). The domain, website and profiles are in your business's name.

Do I need a website if I have a Facebook page?

A Facebook page helps, but a website you own shows up better on Google, can't be taken away by a platform change, and gives people one place to find your prices, hours and how to reach you.

How do I get my business on Google Maps?

With a free Google Business Profile: add your business, verify it, and fill in your services, hours, area and photos. It's the single most important thing for local searches.

How do I get my website to show up on Google?

Clear pages that say what you do and where, a fast site that works on phones, your Google Business Profile, and other local sites linking to you. It takes weeks to months, not days.

How do I get more Google reviews?

Ask every happy customer, right after the job, with a direct link to your review page. Never buy reviews or offer something in return for them: it breaks the rules and can get reviews removed.

Who should own my domain name?

Your business, in an account you control. A domain registered by a web designer in their own name can be lost if you part ways.

Can I update the website myself?

Yes, if it's set up for it: you can change prices, hours and photos yourself, and call us for bigger changes.

Should I pay for ads on Google or Facebook?

Start with the free basics first: a Google Business Profile, a clear website and reviews. Small, targeted ads can help after that; set a budget and check what each one brings in.

Can you set up our e-mail at our own domain too?

Yes: [email protected] with Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, set up so it doesn't land in spam.
