Why your SEO Web Design & Development isn't working
Beautiful site, no traffic
A redesign launched without SEO and rankings disappeared overnight.
Slow and hard to edit
Heavy page builders, poor Core Web Vitals and a site only the developer can change.
Looks good, doesn't convert
No clear calls to action, forms or tracking.
Designer and SEO agency don't talk
Two vendors, no shared plan, and you stuck in the middle.

Online stores on Shopify, WooCommerce and other platforms, category structure, product pages, speed and checkout built for both shoppers and search. Pair with ecommerce SEO.

Questions
Straight answers
How much does a website cost for a small business?
It depends on how many pages you need, whether you sell online, which integrations you need (booking, payments, CRM) and how much content we write. A simple service site is a very different job from an online store. We give a fixed project price after scoping, and you own everything at the end.
Do I need a new website, or can my current one be fixed?
If the site is reasonably modern, fast and easy to update, fixing it is usually cheaper: better pages, speed work and SEO. A rebuild makes sense when it's slow on phones, hard to edit, built on an outdated platform, or simply doesn't explain what you do. We'll tell you honestly which one you need.
My Wix or Squarespace site isn't showing on Google. Why?
Builders like Wix and Squarespace can rank fine, so it's rarely the platform alone. Check that the site is connected to Google Search Console, that pages aren't hidden from search engines in the settings, and that each service has its own page with a clear title. Thin, one-page sites struggle on any platform.
What does a website designer actually do?
Plans the pages around what your customers need, designs how they look on phones and computers, writes or organizes the content, builds the site, connects forms and tracking, and makes sure it loads fast and can be found on Google. A good one also hands you the logins and shows you how to update it.
What is SEO web design?
Designing and building a website so it's easy for search engines to crawl and understand, with keyword-mapped pages, fast loading, mobile-first layouts, schema and clean internal links, and easy for visitors to act on.
Will a redesign hurt my rankings?
It can if URLs change without redirects or content is removed. We map every old URL to its new one, keep what ranks, and run SEO checks before and after launch.
Do you offer web design and SEO packages?
Yes, a fixed-price build with SEO included, and optional monthly SEO or Google Ads afterwards.
Which platforms do you build on?
Usually WordPress or Shopify, or a modern framework for custom needs, chosen so you can edit your own content easily.
Do I own the website?
Yes. Domain, hosting, content and code are yours.
