→ WEB MANAGEMENT SERVICES · SINCE 2010
Managed website services. So you can run the business.
Your website, local SEO, Google Business Profile, reviews, and monthly reporting — run by one accountable team, on one retainer. Sixteen years doing exactly this for local owners.
The usual setup
Most local businesses end up with three vendors — and no one accountable for the result.
01
The web person
Built the site, then went quiet.
02
The SEO
Sends rankings. Never touches the site.
03
You
Post to Google when you remember.
04
The reviews
Pile up. Mostly unanswered.
We rolled all of it into one monthly retainer fifteen years ago, because it obviously should be one engagement — not three. Same person. Same plan. Same monthly page that tells you what happened.
What the retainer runs
Everything a local website needs — run as one monthly operation.
Not six things you buy. Six things that happen, every month, because one team owns the whole picture.
Run weekly
Google Business Profile
Optimization, weekly posts, photo cadence, Q&A seeding, review responses, monthly insights. April-2026 policy compliant. We post; you keep working.
Measured monthly
Local SEO
Keyword tracking, technical audits, on-page tuning, citation hygiene across 25–50 directories. One monthly report shows what moved, and why.
Handled as they arrive
Reviews & reputation
Compliant request flows, a written response for every review — including the hard ones — and velocity monitoring so positive volume compounds cleanly.
Working around the clock
AI chatbot
Trained on your services, hours, pricing, and area. Captures a lead at 11pm and routes the qualified ones to your inbox the same minute.
One page, every month
Plain-English reporting
What was done, what moved, what is next — sent on the 1st. A mid-month pulse email so you are never left wondering whether anything is happening.
Every tier includes all six — Charter, Core, and Professional differ only on volume.

Common questions.
Q.01 How is this different from hiring a freelance web person and a separate SEO?
Freelancers split the work across handoffs that often drop signal. We do site, SEO, GBP, reviews, content, and reporting from one team — under one retainer, with a single roadmap. Sixteen years of local-search delivery, no junior account managers, no upsell ladder. Most owner-operators we work with had hired two or three specialists before us; one retainer simplifies their week.
Q.02 Can I keep my existing website and just do the managed services?
On Core or Professional, yes — we'll work with what you have. Charter ($300/mo, 6-month minimum) includes a fresh Astro site because the foundation matters; you can't out-optimize a slow, broken site. If your current site is fast and well-structured, we'll skip the rebuild and start on the SEO + GBP + reviews work from day one.
Q.03 What's the smallest commitment to start?
Charter is six months minimum at $300/mo — enough time for the foundational work (site, GBP, citations, schema) to actually land. Core and Professional are month-to-month from day one with 30-day notice to leave. We don't do annual contracts at any tier.
Q.04 Will you take a direct competitor as a client?
No. First-come geographic exclusivity per vertical, written into the contract. If a competitor reaches out after you sign, we tell them no — for as long as you stay. This is the one promise that makes the work feel different from working with a national agency.
Q.05 Who actually does the work?
Phil leads every client engagement personally. A small team plus AI handles execution — citation submissions, schema validation, content drafts. The strategy, judgment calls, and your monthly report are Phil's, every month. No junior pass-throughs.
Q.06 Do all three tiers include the same services?
Yes — Charter, Core, and Professional all include the same nine capabilities. The tiers differ only on volume: content cadence, GBP post frequency, response time, and reporting depth scale up as you move from Charter to Professional. No tier leaves a capability out.
