Chapter 01 · Websites

A website that can get you the call.

This is for an owner-run business whose site is slow, hard to update, or unclear about what you do. The site is one part of the ongoing marketing plan, not a separate product. If a stranger can't tell what you sell or how to reach you, the ads and the search work have nowhere useful to land.

Illustrative concept

Scope

What I do

01

A site shaped around how you sell

I build the site in WordPress when you need to edit it, in plain HTML when speed and simplicity matter more, or on Shopify when you're selling online. The platform follows how you sell.

02

An online store you can run

I build stores in WooCommerce or Shopify, including search and filters so a buyer can find the product. You can change products and prices yourself.

03

A move or a rebuild

I look at what you have before I propose a rebuild. If you need one, I keep the old addresses working so Google isn't sent to a dead page.

04

A website performance audit

I look at speed, how the site behaves on a phone, and whether Google can read it. You get a plain list of what I'd fix. I do the same check on a site I build, not only on one I inherit.

05

Hosting and upkeep

I can host the site, apply updates, keep backups, and make the small edits that come up. You can also update the words yourself. Either way, you're not locked in.

06

A rent-to-own website

If paying for the whole site up front is the wrong fit, a rent-to-own website is an option. You use the site while you pay it down. I'll explain the terms on the call. It's not the default.

The plan

How it fits your ongoing marketing plan

A clear site is where the rest of the plan has to land. It doesn't, by itself, bring the visits, set the words, or decide what to spend next month.

Start

How it works

  1. 01Book a discovery call. I look at the current site and how a stranger would try to reach you.
  2. 02I tell you whether to fix this site, rebuild it, or leave it and start somewhere else in the plan.
  3. 03If you hire me, I do that work and I tell you what changed.

Proof

What I'll put my name on.

I've been doing this since 1995, and I do the work myself. I don't publish made-up before-and-after numbers.

OTG Oilfield Equipment has a store on its own domain. I still host it.

Questions

Before you decide.

Do I have to replace my website to work with you?

No. If the site can already get a stranger to call, I leave it and work on the part of the plan that's actually leaking. If it can't, I'll say so on the call.

Can I update the site myself?

Yes, if you want to. I build it so you can change the words and the products. If you'd rather I make those edits, that's part of the ongoing plan. The site is still yours.

Will a rebuild throw away my Google rankings?

Not if the move is done properly. I map the old addresses to the new ones and check that the important pages still resolve. I won't promise that every ranking goes up.

What's a website performance audit?

I look at speed, the phone experience, and whether Google can read the pages, then I tell you what I'd fix. It's a look at the site you have. I won't promise that rankings jump because of it.

What does this cost?

The ongoing marketing plan starts at $999 a month. On the call I'll tell you what this part includes. I don't bill open-ended hours.

Book a discovery call.

If the site is in the way of the calls, book a discovery call. I'll tell you whether I'd fix it, rebuild it, or leave it alone.
