Built for Small Businesses, Not Corporate Marketing Departments

Most local businesses don't need an enterprise website. They need a clear, fast site that answers customers' questions and makes it easy to get in touch. That's what I build, for businesses like:

  • Restaurants
  • Contractors
  • Auto services
  • Cleaning companies
  • Professional services
  • Tutors
  • Retail businesses
  • Local service businesses

Customers understand what you do

Your services, your area and what makes you different, said plainly on the first screen.

You look professional when they search

When someone looks up your business, they land on a site that matches the quality of your work.

Everything in one place

Services, hours, location and contact information where customers expect to find them.

Searches turn into customers

Clear buttons and short forms turn Google searches into phone calls, quote requests, bookings or visits.

See Your New Website Before You Commit

Tell me about your business and I'll put together a homepage concept showing how I would approach your site: your name, your services, your look. There's no obligation to hire me.

If you like the direction, we talk about the build. If not, you've lost nothing but a few minutes.

How it works

    We decide the pages, design and features the site actually needs.

    Responsive website, your business information, forms and a search-friendly structure.

    The finished site and the core accounts belong to your business.

Local Website Design in Watsonville and the Central Coast

I'm based in the Watsonville area and work directly with local business owners. You talk to the person actually building your website, not an account manager passing instructions to another team.

I work with businesses in Watsonville, Freedom, Aptos, Capitola, Santa Cruz and Scotts Valley, and over the hill in Salinas, Prunedale and the rest of Monterey County. Around here, meeting in person is easy. Everything can also be handled by phone, text and email.

Why work with me

No agency layers and no jargon. One person who builds the site and answers the phone.

You talk to the builder

Questions, changes and decisions go straight to the person doing the work.

I know the operator's side

I work in a family-run restaurant in Watsonville, so I know how much a missed call, an outdated menu or the wrong hours online can cost a small business.

Built to bring in customers

The phone number, menu or services, quote form and directions come first. Everything else supports them.

No unnecessary complexity

No features you didn't ask for and nothing your customers won't use.

Transparent pricing

Straightforward sites start at $500. Anything bigger gets a clear quote before work starts.

Local and available

Based in the Watsonville area, reachable by phone or text at 831-359-2935.

Questions business owners ask

How much does a small-business website cost?

Most straightforward local-business websites start at $500. That covers a clean, professional, mobile-friendly site with your services, hours, contact information and an inquiry form. Larger sites, ecommerce, custom functionality or a lot of content get a custom quote before any work starts.

Do I own my website?

Yes. Your domain and hosting are set up in your business's name and billed to you directly, and the finished site belongs to you. Your business should always control its own domain and important accounts, so if you ever want to work with someone else, you can.

Are there monthly fees?

There's no mandatory monthly fee paid to me. The unavoidable costs are third-party: your domain name and hosting, billed to you directly by those providers, often under $20 a year for a simple site. If you want changes after launch, those are quoted separately.

Can you redesign my existing website?

Yes. I can rebuild an outdated or hard-to-use site with a faster, mobile-friendly design, carry over the content that still works, and keep your existing domain so customers can still find you.

Can you help my business show up on Google?

Every site is built with a local SEO foundation: clear page titles and descriptions, a Google-friendly structure, your business name, location and phone number shown consistently, and a mobile-first design. No one can honestly guarantee rankings, and I don't, but a well-built site gives you a solid starting point.

Do you build restaurant websites?

Yes. It's the industry I know best. A restaurant site can include your menu, online-ordering and delivery links, catering inquiries, hours, a map and directions, and photos of your food and space.

Do you only work with Watsonville businesses?

No. My focus is local businesses in Watsonville, Santa Cruz County and the Salinas area, where I can meet in person when it helps, but I'm happy to consider remote projects elsewhere.
