Frequently Asked Questions
Where are you based and who do you serve
I am based in San Luis Obispo County. I work with clients wherever they do business.
What do I actually get with a new website
A modern site that matches your brand, clear messaging, fast pages, search ready structure, and simple paths to contact or book. You also get clean tracking so calls, forms, and consultation clicks are counted.
How long does a website take
Most small business sites launch in 2 to 4 weeks once content is ready. Larger sites or stores can take longer based on scope.
Will I be able to edit the site myself
Yes. I build on platforms like WordPress, Squarespace and Shopify so you can update pages, images, and products without a developer.
Can you redesign my current site or migrate content
Yes. We bring over what is working, improve what is not, and clean up redirects so you do not lose search value.
Do you offer ongoing website support
Yes. I can handle content edits, security updates, small improvements, and regular checks that keep speed, accessibility, and conversion on track.
What is the difference between SEO and AI search
SEO helps search engines understand and rank your pages. AI search focuses on being cited by assistants and AI overviews. I plan topics, improve structure, and build authority so you can win in both.
What does an SEO plan include each month
Technical cleanup, topic and keyword mapping, content briefs or edits, on page improvements, and authority signals such as reviews and listings. Every month you see what changed and what those changes produced.
How soon will we see SEO results
Early movement can show in a few weeks and stronger gains build over a few months. I set targets for the first 90 days and measure progress so we can adjust.
Do you only optimize for local searches
No. I support local, national, and international reach. If you serve multiple markets we plan content and pages for each audience.
Which ad platforms do you manage
Google Ads and Meta Ads primarily, however, I am happy to work with other ad platforms as needed. I match intent and audience to your goals, then protect spend with smart negatives, tight locations, and clear creative.
What ad budget do I need
We can start lean depending on the industry and competition. I will recommend a budget that fits your goals and the size of your market, and I will show you what that spend produces.
How do you make sure we are not wasting ad spend
I track calls, forms, and consultation clicks back to the keyword and audience. We pause what does not work, scale what does, and run small tests so performance improves month after month.
Do you build landing pages for ads
Yes. I can refine your current pages or build focused landing pages that fit the offer and improve conversion.
What is included in data and analytics consulting
Measurement strategy, GA4 and Tag Manager setup, named conversions, UTM standards, and spam filtering. You get a simple dashboard that shows which pages and campaigns drive leads and where to invest next.
How do you prove return on investment
Every lead is counted and tied to a page and campaign. The dashboard shows spend, leads, cost per lead, and top performers so you can cut waste and scale winners.
How do you prove paid ads are paying off
Every call, form, and consultation from ads is tagged and counted, then tied to the keyword, audience, and ad that caused it. Your dashboard shows spend, leads, cost per lead, and return so we can scale winners, cut waste, and keep improving week by week.
How do you prove SEO is working
I track consultation clicks, calls, and forms back to the pages and queries that drove them, then compare leads and lead quality over time. You will see a simple view that pairs top queries with the pages they land on and the actions they take, so we can link content to real pipeline and shift effort toward what converts.
How do you handle privacy and consent
I respect consent choices, avoid collecting personal information in analytics, and follow platform policies. If you use a consent tool, I wire tracking to respect it.
How do pricing and packages work
Website packages start at $5,000, SEO and paid ads use monthly tiers, and analytics setup is a one time fee. After a short discovery call you get a clear proposal with scope, timeline, and price.
