Your Website Is Competing in Three Places at Once
When someone in Brentwood searches for a business like yours, Google shows them three types of results. Your website plays a role in all of them.
The Map Pack
The top 3 local businesses with the map. This is powered by your Google Business Profile, but your website directly affects it — consistent business info, local content, and reviews strategy all feed into these rankings.
Organic Results
The traditional search listings below the map. This is where your website's content, structure, and technical foundation matter most. It takes time to build, but these rankings compound and drive traffic for years.
Paid Results
The sponsored listings at the top of the page. Even if you run ads, the clicks land on your website. A site that converts visitors into calls means you spend less to get each customer.
This is the landscape your website operates in. Here's what it takes to build one that actually performs.

What Goes Into a Website That Actually Works
A website isn't a digital business card. It's a system — designed to attract the right visitors, earn their trust, and turn them into customers. Here's what that actually involves.
Strategy Before Design
Every project starts with your business goals, not a template. Who are your customers? How do they search? What makes them pick up the phone? Competitor analysis, keyword research, and conversion planning all happen before a single pixel gets designed.
Custom WordPress Development
Your site is built from scratch on WordPress — the platform behind 40% of the web. Custom theme, clean code, built to be maintained. Not a drag-and-drop page builder that breaks when you try to update it. Your site should still work perfectly two years from now without a complete rebuild.
Already have a WordPress site that needs work? I handle WordPress takeovers and ongoing management too.
Designed for Your Customer
Every page has a job: drive a call, capture a lead, answer a question. Mobile-first design because most of your local customers are searching on their phones. Fast load times, clear navigation, accessible to everyone.
Search-Ready From Day One
Schema markup, XML sitemaps, Core Web Vitals, heading structure, image optimization, internal linking, Google Business Profile alignment. SEO isn't a separate service you bolt on after launch — it's baked into how the site is built from the start.
This is just the foundation. For ongoing search visibility, I offer full SEO and search marketing management.
How I Work With Clients Across Contra Costa County
In-Person Discovery
I drive out to meet you. Whether your office is in Brentwood, your storefront is in Antioch, or you're running operations from Livermore — I'll be there. I see the physical space, meet the team, understand how customers actually find you. This isn't a Zoom call with a project manager in another state.
One Designer, Start to Finish
I don't hand your project off to a junior developer or outsource it overseas. Strategy, design, development, launch — that's all me. I keep my client list small so I can actually focus on your business. You'll have my cell number, not a support portal.
An Ongoing Partnership
A website isn't something you launch and forget about. After go-live, I handle WordPress updates, security monitoring, performance tuning, and content updates. When you need changes or something breaks, you text me directly. I stick around because that's where the real results happen.
Then keep it growing
A website is step one. Once it's live, I can bring it customers with Google Ads, Facebook & Instagram ads and local SEO, and keep it fast and secure with hosting and care.
I build websites for plumbers, HVAC companies, law firms, real estate agents, restaurants, and other small businesses. Each industry has different needs — I build for yours.
Let's Talk About Your Website
If you're a small business owner thinking about a new website — or wondering whether your current one is actually working for you — text me. I'll get back to you personally.
