Sebastian & the Treasure Coast
Web design in Sebastian. Are you in the top three?
When somebody nearby searches for what you do, Google shows three businesses. That's the whole list most people ever look at, and most local businesses aren't on it — not because their website is ugly, but because nothing is telling Google they exist. I build the site and fix the Google listing behind it, so the phone actually rings.

Three spots. Everyone below them gets a fraction of the calls.
Why it's called Top Three
First place isn't the goal. Getting inside the three is.
Measured click-through rates for the three Google Maps spots are almost level — but the drop to fourth is a cliff, because reaching it means tapping "more places," which most people never do. That's the whole job: get you into the box, not to the top of it.

more traffic for businesses in the three than for those ranked fourth to tenth.
SOCi, cited widely 2025–2026
Which is why nobody should promise you first place. Google Maps results depend partly on how close the searcher is standing to you, and nobody controls that. Getting you inside the three is achievable. Promising the top of it isn't, and anyone who does is guessing.
Why the phone is quiet
The problem usually isn't your website. It's everything Google can't find.
Google decides who shows up in those three spots mostly from your Google Business Profile, your reviews, and whether your name, address and phone match everywhere online. Most small businesses have never touched any of it.

What I do
Web design and local SEO. Two things, done properly.
Build the site
Web design that loads fast, works properly on a phone, says what you do and where you do it, and makes it easy to call you. Written for the customer, not for a design award.
Fix the Google listing
Claim it, complete it, pick the right categories, clean up the directories that have your old number, and keep reviews coming in. This is the part that moves you up the map.
Then keep it working
Hosting, updates, security, changes when you need them, and a plain-English report every month showing calls and clicks. Not a chart of keyword rankings nobody reads.
Pricing
Web design prices, published. You shouldn't need a sales call to find them.
One-time build, then a monthly plan if you want me to keep it running and keep working on your Google listing. The monthly plan is optional and you can stop it any month.
One-time build
Starter
$800
Three pages. For a business that just needs to exist properly online.

Bigger than that? Online stores, booking systems, or more than 10 pages are quoted properly rather than squeezed into a package — call or text (754) 303-2831 and I'll give you a real number. Extra pages on Premium are $200 each if you only need a few more.
Monthly, cancel any time
Care
$150 /month

Local Visibility
$300 /month
Everything in Care, plus active work on getting you found.

Growth
$600 /month

- Local link building
- Structured data and listings kept clean and correct
Competing in a crowded market? If you're a dentist, attorney, chiropractor or anyone in a category where a dozen funded competitors fight over the same searches, local pages alone won't get you there. The Authority plan adds four researched articles a month plus a full competitor breakdown, at $1,000/month. Only three clients at a time. Most local businesses don't need it — if you're a plumber in one town, spend the money on Local Visibility instead.
After you buy
You get a short form
Six questions about your business, your services and your towns. Takes about five minutes.
Within one day
We talk
A quick call to confirm scope before I start. If it turns out you bought the wrong tier, I fix it — up or down, no argument.
About two weeks
You review it
You see the site before it goes live and tell me what to change. I keep going until it's right.
Launch day
You get the keys
Site live, Google profile connected, every login written down and handed to you.
Bought the wrong one? Tell me within seven days and I'll refund it in full, no questions. I'd rather lose a sale than take money for something that isn't right for you. Monthly plans renew automatically and you can cancel any month from your account — no phone call, no retention script.
Straight answer on timing: local SEO is not instant. You'll usually see movement in three to six months, and it keeps compounding after that. Anyone promising page one in thirty days is either guessing or lying, and I'd rather lose the job than tell you that.
What you own
If you ever leave, you take everything with you.
The most common complaint about the big website companies isn't price or design. It's that people find out — at the worst possible moment — that the site they paid for was never theirs. I put it in writing instead.
Ask me anything before you commit- Your domain is registered in your name. Not mine. It always was yours.
- You get every login. Hosting, Google, analytics, email — handed over, written down.
- No contract to escape. Monthly plans are month to month. Cancel and nothing disappears.
- No fee to leave. No transfer fee, no release fee, no ransom on your own website.
- You can change it yourself. Or have me do it. You're not locked into asking permission.
Before you hire anyone
Five questions worth asking every web company — including me.
If you've been burned before, it was probably by one of these. Ask them out loud and watch what happens.
"Can you tell me the price before we get on a call?"
Mine are on this page. If a company won't give you a number until they've sized you up, the number depends on what they think you'll pay.
"Who owns the website and the domain when I leave?"
You do, in writing, from day one. Get this answer in writing from anyone you're considering — not from a salesperson on the phone.
"How long am I locked in?"
You're not. Month to month. Long contracts exist to protect the agency from its own results.
"Is SEO part of the build, or extra?"
Built in from the start. SEO added after the fact is a bandage on a site that wasn't structured for it.
"Who actually answers when I call?"
I do. There is no receptionist, no account manager, no ticket queue. I live here, I build the sites, and I answer the phone. That's the whole company, and that's the point.
"Can I see the site on my phone right now?"
Pull up any example they show you on your own phone, on your own data. More than half the sites people are sold fall apart on that test.
How it goes
Four steps, about two to three weeks.
Step 1
I look you up
Before you pay anything, I check your Google listing and tell you what's wrong with it. Free, no obligation, takes me ten minutes.
Step 2
We agree on the scope
You pick a tier off this page. I write down exactly what you get and what it costs. No surprises later.
Step 3
I build and you review
You see it before it goes live and tell me what to change. I keep going until it's right.
Step 4
I launch and hand over the keys
Site live, Google profile connected, every login written down and given to you. Then the monthly work starts if you want it.
Recent work
Recent web design work, and what each site had to do.
Every business is different, so every build is too. Here's what each one needed, and what changed — local trades first, because that's most of what I do.
Local trades · Florida
All County Painters
Hollywood, FL · Broward, Dade & Palm Beach
A real painting company with real revenue, presented like every other contractor template — one long scrolling page, a stock brush for a logo, and a competitor's name still sitting in the copy. I rebuilt it as 22 pages with a page for every service, redrew the logo from the owner's own concept rather than replacing it, and wrote the whole thing in English and Spanish. It now leads with the finishes the franchises don't touch, and says plainly that the owner does the painting.
Aiden's Lawn & Landscape
Sebastian, FL · my own town
A new operator with no name, no logo and no presence — starting from nothing. The research turned up the one gap nobody local was claiming: overgrown properties that most crews turn down flat. So that became the business. Name, logo, positioning, copy and site all built around the job everyone else says no to, with prices published from $75 and a promise of no judgment.
Specialist & remote clients
Kapyderm USA
Sells nationwide · practitioner network across 15+ states
The U.S. arm of a Spanish clinical lab, with a catalog too large and a story too technical for an off-the-shelf site. I built 150+ pages covering 70 products and 21 treatment protocols, an online store, full SEO, and a private portal for certified practitioners running to another 100 pages behind the login. The site now sells to the public and serves the professional network from one place.
Advanced Hair Growth Clinic
Charlotte, North Carolina · built entirely remotely
A hair-loss specialist whose site buried what she actually did under borrowed branding and stock photos. I rebuilt it around her real specialty — drug-free, scalp-first care for textured hair — with her own before-and-afters, clear booking, and local SEO built in. The site now says exactly who she helps and gives visitors one obvious next step.
Mendoza Scalp & Skin Solutions
Pooler, Georgia · built entirely remotely
A beauty-industry educator who wanted to be seen as a business strategist, not just a technician. I rebuilt the homepage around helping professionals build businesses that are profitable, sustainable and hard to duplicate, using her own process and graphics. The page finally leads with her, not a product.
Who you're actually hiring
One person. Start to finish.
You won't be handed off to an account manager in another state, because there isn't one.
Dennis
Owner · builds and maintains everything
I design and build the sites, set up and manage the Google listings, and do the monthly SEO work myself. I built my first website in 2020 and kept building them for family and friends for years after — until enough people were asking that I turned it into a business. If your site breaks on a Sunday, you're calling the person who built it.
Based in Sebastian
Serving the Treasure Coast
Sebastian, Vero Beach, Fellsmere, Palm Bay, Melbourne, West Melbourne, Viera, Rockledge, Cocoa, Fort Pierce and Port St. Lucie — across Indian River, Brevard and St. Lucie counties. Each one has its own page with its own numbers; the full list is here. Close enough to meet at your shop if you'd rather do it in person, and close enough to come back if something needs fixing.
Questions
The things people ask me before they sign.
How long until my phone starts ringing more?
The website is usually live in about two to three weeks. Local search results move slower — usually three to six months before you notice a real difference, and it keeps building after that. The Google Business Profile work often shows up sooner, sometimes within a few weeks, because most profiles start out half-finished.
Your name is Top Three. Are you promising I'll rank there?
No. The name is the goal, not a guarantee. Google's local results depend partly on how close the searcher is to your business, and nobody controls that. What I can do is fix every part that is controllable — your profile, your reviews, your listings, your site — and show you honestly what moved each month. If anyone could promise you the top three, they'd charge a lot more than $300.
Do I really own the website?
Yes, and the domain and every login. It's written into the agreement. If you cancel, nothing gets taken down and there's no fee to move it somewhere else. I'm aware that's not how some of the national companies work, which is exactly why I say it plainly.
What if I already have a website?
Then the first question is whether it needs replacing or just fixing. Sometimes the site is fine and the Google listing is the problem, and I'll tell you that instead of selling you a rebuild you don't need.
Do I have to buy a monthly plan?
No. You can pay for the build and walk away with it. The monthly plans exist because a website that nobody maintains and a Google listing that nobody updates will quietly stop working. But it's your call, and you can start or stop it any month.
I'm not in your area. Can you still build my site?
Yes, and I already do. Two of the three projects in the work above were built entirely over the phone and email — a hair loss clinic in Charlotte, North Carolina and a beauty-industry educator in Pooler, Georgia. Kapyderm sells nationwide with a practitioner network across more than fifteen states. A website, a Google profile, reviews and reporting don't require anyone to be in the room. Prices are the same wherever you are.
The one honest difference: I can't sit across a table from you, and for local clients that's genuinely part of what they're paying for. If that matters to you, hire someone in your own town — and use this article to make sure they put ownership in writing.
Do you work in Spanish?
Yes — the calls, the written agreement and the website itself, at no extra cost. Spanish is my first language, not a course I took. I checked every web designer from Melbourne to Port St. Lucie and not one of them offers it. Toda la información en español aquí.
What areas do you cover?
Eleven towns have their own page with their own local numbers — Sebastian, Vero Beach, Fellsmere, Palm Bay, Melbourne, West Melbourne, Viera, Rockledge, Cocoa, Fort Pierce and Port St. Lucie — plus the smaller communities between them. That covers Indian River, Brevard and St. Lucie counties, and I’ll drive an hour without thinking about it. See every town here.
What clients say
Real reviews, from real clients you can check.
I'm new, so there aren't many yet — and I'd rather show you a few you can click through and verify than a wall of quotes with no names on them.
"He took the time to understand my vision and turned it into a professional, polished website that truly reflects my brand… What I appreciated most was that he made the technical side of everything feel simple. He was knowledgeable, easy to work with, and genuinely cared about creating something I was proud of."
"He thoroughly researched my niche market to become familiar with it, which was the key difference from all other designers I've worked with. For anyone seeking a designer who invests in understanding your specific business rather than applying generic templates, I highly recommend this service."
"I was very impressed by how quick AND accurate my site turned out. Not only that, I was offered other options I would have never known existed. They truly go above and beyond. I recommend them to anyone looking to quickly start or grow a business."
