People here go out of their way to buy from independent businesses. But “out of their way” now starts on a phone: a Google Maps search, a “near me”, or a question typed into ChatGPT. If your profile is half filled in, or your website is slow and out of date, the chain store with the tidy listing gets the visit, even on a street full of people who'd rather have picked you.
We're based on Portland's west side and work with independent businesses across the city. Every site we build is set up so Google, Apple Maps and the AI assistants can read exactly what you sell, where you are and when you're open.

Questions from Portland owners
Do you only work with Portland businesses?
No. We're based on Portland's west side and most of our clients are in the Portland metro and around Oregon, but the work itself is done remotely, so we can help independent businesses anywhere. Being local just means we can also meet you at your shop.
How do I get my Portland business into the Google map pack?
The map pack (the three businesses under the map) is driven mostly by your Google Business Profile: the right categories, complete hours and services, real photos, steady reviews, and a website that says the same thing. That setup is what our $250 local search package covers, and it's free with any website build.
How much does a small business website cost in Portland?
With us, a one-time fee: Basic $800, Standard+ $1,000 or Custom $1,500. You own the site outright and there's no required monthly fee to us. Hosting is paid straight to Webflow in your own name, usually $14 to $23 a month.
Can you fix my existing website instead of starting over?
Often, yes. The free audit looks at what you already have, including your site, your Google profile and how you show up in AI answers, and tells you plainly whether it's worth fixing or cheaper to rebuild.
