What repeat customers ask before hiring
These are the questions I hear most often from past referrals, in the order they typically come up.
What does it cost? — Most small business sites land between $1,800 and $9,500. The 5-page starter is $1,800. A 20-page WordPress build with custom schema is $3,500 to $6,500. E-commerce with custom product configuration is $4,500 to $9,500. Monthly maintenance is $50 to $200.
How long does it take? — 4 to 8 weeks from kickoff to launch. The first week is discovery. Weeks 2 and 3 are design and content. Weeks 3 and 4 are build. The final week is testing and launch.
Do I own the site? — Yes. The WordPress install, the design, the content, the domain — all of it is yours. You can take it to any developer. There’s no proprietary lock-in.
What happens after launch? — You get 30 days of post-launch support included. After that, hosting, security, and updates are $50 to $200 a month. There’s no contractual requirement to keep me on — keep me on if you want, swap me out if you don’t.
Will it rank on Google? — Built to, with local SEO, schema markup, and llms.txt for AI search. The studio’s own site is a 50-day SEO zero-critical streak — the methodology is the same one I use for clients.
Recent case study — Polk Court
The most recent public engagement: 1324 E Polk Court, Moses Lake, WA. A 4-bedroom, 2-bath single-story home listed for sale by owner at $469,000. The site was built in 2026 to a deadline — local SEO primacy, schema markup, photo compression, and a /llms.txt tailored for real estate AI queries. Designed so the listing surfaces on Zillow, Realtor.com, Facebook Marketplace, and any AI search engine that crawls the page.
SEO — LocalBusiness + RealEstateListing + FAQPage + BreadcrumbList schema. Local SEO work for “Moses Lake home for sale” + “Grant County FSBO” queries. Includes an aggregator backlink strategy and a tracking script for daily lead logging.
Result — Page is live. Listing indexed. Schema valid (Google Rich Results passes). Lead log initialized. Listing active as of 2026-08-12.
More published case studies will roll out as the studio’s portfolio expands. For now, the Polk Court listing is the most complete, documented example of a single-asset site built end-to-end with the same methodology used for ongoing client work.
