I build websites for machine shops, sheet metal fabricators, and welding shops — the kind of shops that have run on word of mouth for thirty years and never needed a website until the phone got quieter.
None of them are about being bad at what you do.
A buyer searches, finds three competitors and no sign of you, and calls one of them. You never know the quote existed.
Unreadable on a phone, no security padlock, copyright date from two decades ago. It tells a purchasing agent you might already be closed.
No Google listing means no pin on the map, no hours, no photos, no reviews — and no showing up for "machine shop near me."
One project. Everything your shop needs to exist online, done and handed over.
Agencies quote $10,000–$25,000 for a manufacturing website. I'm the local guy at a fraction of that, and I'll tell you the number on the first call.
Your domain name, your Google listing, and every photo, video, and word on the site belongs to you — it's written into the contract. If you ever decide to leave, all of it goes with you within 30 days, no fee, no argument. I keep customers by being worth it, not by holding the keys.
Tell me your shop's name and I'll send back a one-page rundown: what a customer sees when they search for you, what your competitors have that you don't, and what it would take to fix it. No charge, no obligation.
