Web design in Melbourne, FL, and the Google listing that makes the phone ring.

With me, $800 for 3 pages, $1,500 for 7 pages, or $3,000 for 10 pages with the writing done for you. A Google Business Profile setup on its own is $300. Around Melbourne you'll see everything from low-cost templates to agency quotes in the thousands; the difference is usually how many pages, who writes them, and whether you own the result.

For a local business with real services to explain, yes. At $1,500 you get 7 custom pages, lead-capture forms, full on-page SEO with schema markup, and Google Business Profile optimization, and you own all of it. Below that, ask what's left out. Above it, ask what you're paying for that you can see.

After the build, the running costs are a domain name, registered in your name and renewed each year, and hosting. With me, hosting, updates and support are the $150 Care Plan, month to month. You don't have to take it: you own the site, so you can host it anywhere or run it yourself.

About 21 miles, roughly half an hour up US-1 or I-95, and I'll come to you. Most of the work happens over the phone and email anyway, but if you want to sit across a table before you spend money, say so and we'll find a morning.

It depends entirely on your category, and the numbers vary enormously. Leading general contractor listings in Melbourne sit around twenty reviews, which is very reachable. Restaurants sit above a thousand, which isn't — not in any timeframe worth paying for. Tell me what you do and I'll tell you honestly which situation you're in before you spend anything.

Because Google weighs how close the searcher is to each business, and Melbourne and Palm Bay run into each other. A Palm Bay business a few miles down Babcock can absolutely appear for a Melbourne search. That part you can't control — what you can control is your categories, your services and your reviews, which is where the work goes.

More here than in most places, because of who's arriving. The Palm Bay–Melbourne market ranked first in the country on U-Haul's inbound-moves index for 2023, and Brevard County has added more than 57,000 people since the 2020 census. People who just moved don't have a plumber, a dentist or a landscaper yet. They search, and a business that isn't on the map is invisible to every one of them.

Yes. Spanish is my first language, and I can do the calls, the contract and the website in Spanish, or build it in both languages, at no extra charge. Más información en español.

Google usually finds and indexes a new site within days to a few weeks, faster when it's submitted in Search Console, which I do at launch. Showing up is not the same as ranking. In a competitive Melbourne category, expect three to six months before you see real movement, and I don't guarantee positions to anyone.

Yes. If you go to your customers, like most contractors, cleaners and mobile services, Google lets you run a service-area profile: your address stays hidden and you list the towns you cover instead. I set these up all the time. How I handle Google Business Profiles.

With me, yes, and that's in writing before I start. The domain is registered in your name, every login is handed over and written down, and there's no fee to leave. If I disappeared tomorrow, you or anyone you hire could pick it up. Ask any designer this question before you sign, and get the answer in writing.

No — all of Brevard, Indian River and St. Lucie counties, from Cocoa and Viera down through Sebastian and Vero Beach to Port St. Lucie. Being an hour or less from all of them is the point.

Nobody can promise that. Google's local results depend partly on how close the searcher is to you, and nobody controls that. What I can do is fix every part that is controllable and show you honestly what moved each month. Expect real movement in three to six months.
