What every TL site is built to do
We don’t make pretty websites. We build systems that get found, earn trust and turn strangers into revenue. Then we prove it, in plain numbers, every month.
The build — four phases
Before a pixel moves we audit the current site, map the words your buyers actually search, and plan one clear action for every page.
Site audit · Keyword map · Page plan
A custom layout built around one action per screen. Type, color and photography sized for the decision you want made. No templates.
Custom layout · Type system · Mobile first
Hand-written, semantic code with compressed images, schema and canonical tags: the things that decide whether Google shows you at all.
Core Web Vitals · Schema · Forms + tracking
Monthly care, content and plain-language reporting. You see what came in, where it came from, and what we changed.
Reporting · Content · Security + backups

In their words
“Our phone started ringing more the first week the new site went live. TL understood exactly what an HVAC business needs online.”
“We stopped paying 30% to delivery apps. TL built us our own ordering system and it paid for itself in the first month.”
“Our provider directory went from invisible to the top resource in the state. Patient referrals are up 80%.”

“I personally review every project that leaves this studio. If your site isn’t built to make you money, I don’t want my name on it.”
A custom 5-page website (Home, About, Services, Gallery and Contact) built for your business, tested on phone and desktop, with a contact form connected to your email and basic SEO (page titles and descriptions). It includes 30 days of fix support after launch, and there’s no deposit: you pay when it’s done.
No deposit. You pay on completion. Starter and Growth are one-time prices. Custom projects get a fixed quote after a free strategy call, with no hourly billing. We accept Zelle (no fee) or card (3% processing fee).
No. There are no monthly retainers. Managed hosting is optional at $239.40 a year. Changes after launch are priced per task, and you see the price before you send the request.
It depends on the plan and how quickly your content (text, photos and logo) comes in. You’ll get a timeline on your strategy call, before any work starts.
