Here’s The Thing: You Should Spend Your Time On Your Business, Not Struggling To Learn Web Design!
So many of our clients come to us after suffering frustration trying to build their own site, or perhaps working with a web designer with no real understanding of marketing strategy. That’s why we put together this great marketing product to give DIY’ers the cost savings while providing tons of guidance.
We build the great site and then train YOU how to use it well to manage your content…along with email marketing, social media and more…the things you ought to be doing to ensure that traffic is getting to your website once it is built. You still get to save money, but YOU’RE UP TO SPEED SO MUCH FASTER! And you’re not alone.
Your job is to spend time getting better at what you do and serving your clients better. Remember this: effective website design includes a LOT of disciplines: marketing analysis & planning, graphic design, sales funnels, layout, navigation design and much more. It’s not just basic information and pretty pictures.
Most website developers (and NO DIY tools) do the footwork to ask the important questions to understand your business and goals…we do. We also look at your industry and the successful players in that industry so your website can emulate what works…to win, follow the winners. And, you need to know what to do AFTER the site launches to keep the site relevant and attracting visitors, so we tailor a maintenance and marketing plan you can follow.
The focal point of your marketing strategy is your website, serving as the central hub. Meanwhile, platforms such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Instagram act as channels or “spokes,” guiding traffic towards your website. As a key part of this system, we review your social media accounts and ensure that your branding and message is consistent in order to create a steady reinforcement of what makes your business special and unique.
We start by making sure your website is safe and secure…automatically backing up for your peace of mind. A great, modern WordPress website that is responsive for multi-platform effectiveness. That uses best SEO practices and includes a powerful SEO tool so you can influence the search engines in order to maximize your ranking online.
We don’t abandon you when your site is built. We train you to perform the tasks needed to keep your site relevant and bringing in traffic. We remain available for ongoing coaching so you can reinforce your training and ask questions…no additional charge.

WHY BRASS RING?
The tradition of the brass ring, a term now synonymous with spectacular achievement, dates back to the 1800s when rings were hung on carousels to pose a fun challenge for riders. Successfully grabbing a ring while riding the carousel often earned riders prizes, possibly including an additional free ride. Most rings were made of iron, but a few were made of brass, so “grabbing the brass ring” was a coveted and celebrated treat.

It is much easier for both me and my customer to transact business and communicate in a timely manner…My only regret is that I waited as long as I did before having a professional develop a web page for me.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Why shouldn’t I just build my own website or hire the cheapest developer?
Ans: Well, it’s tempting to go for the cheapest option, but let’s think about what you really need. Building a website isn’t just about putting some code together; it’s about crafting a digital presence that works for you. A cheap developer might cut corners, skipping important steps like understanding your industry, analyzing your competitors, and planning for your site’s long-term success. We believe that success comes from careful consideration and strategy.
Creating a professional website involves a lot of moving parts: design, coding, user experience, and thorough testing, just to name a few. Our team follows a meticulous 150-step checklist to ensure that your site not only looks great but also functions flawlessly and stays secure.
We’ve been in the web design game for quite a while now, honing our skills since 1998 and specializing in WordPress since 2009. Our track record speaks for itself, with awards and satisfied clients to vouch for our expertise. While we may not be the cheapest option out there, we strive to offer small businesses like yours exceptional value for your investment.
Q. How long will it take me to get to the “first page of Google?
Ans: If anyone promises to shoot you straight to the first page of Google, it’s a red flag. Reputable web pros steer clear of such claims because, truth be told, Google has a plethora of “first pages” depending on what users search for.
The journey to the top varies based on factors like competition, the quality of your website, and your industry. Generally, it takes several months to even over a year to see significant results.
But don’t fret! Consistently optimizing your site, creating quality content, and sticking to SEO best practices are your ticket to long-term success in climbing Google’s rankings. In the meantime, it’s smart to explore non-organic methods to drive traffic to your site, and hey, we’re here to lend a hand with that!
Q. How long will it take to build my website?
Ans: Building your website is a collaborative effort, and it’s important to recognize that various factors come into play, some of which are beyond our complete control. That said, a typical website project usually spans about 4 to 6 weeks from the moment we start to the grand launch.
Q. What is a case study and why should I have them on my website?
Ans: A case study is like a spotlight on a particular project, where we delve into the challenges encountered, the solutions implemented, and the outcomes achieved. It’s a powerful tool for showcasing our experience, expertise, problem-solving abilities, and how our decisions positively impacted our clients.
However, it’s important to keep it concise and easy to digest. Visitors prefer quick access to information, so we aim for a presentation that they can scan through swiftly. That’s where top-notch web design really shines!
