We're just a small shop.
Small shops are exactly who people search for: "near me", open now, a phone number. If you don't show up, the shop down the street does.
sitesbytony / websites for local businesses
Your business deserves to be seen.
Most customers look you up before they call.
Find nothing, and they call someone else.
So I build you one. Star by star.
Made for phones. Made to get calls.
Websites that make your business look like the best one in town.
Custom sites for local businesses, from $400. Live on your own domain, with a real person to text when you need a change.
01 / Why bother
Too small for a website? Your customers don't think so.
Our Facebook page is enough.
Facebook is great for posts. A website is where someone who has never heard of you decides to call, and they don't need an account to see it.
Websites cost a fortune.
Most owners guess thousands. Mine start at $400, built for your business, not stamped from a template.

06 / Questions
Straight answers
Do I really need a website if my business is small?
People search for small businesses every day: what time you open, where you are, what you charge. A website answers all of that before they call, and it shows up when they search for what you do.
Isn't my Facebook or Instagram page enough?
Keep posting there. Your website is the place anyone can open without an account, with your hours, your phone number and your best photos all in one spot. Your social pages can link straight to it.
I don't have time to deal with a website.
You don't have to. I build it, I put it online, and when something changes you send me a text. Keeping it up to date is what the monthly plan covers.
What if I need to change my hours or prices?
Text me the change and I update it for you. Hours, prices, photos and text are all included in the monthly plan.
What if you disappear?
Your site lives on your own domain, and you see every step: a private preview link before launch, then a real person on the monthly plan who answers your texts and keeps it running.
Will it work on phones?
Every site is built for phones first, with a tap-to-call button and directions one tap away. Most of your visitors will be on a phone, so that is where I start.
