How much does a website cost?+
Most small-business websites land in the low-to-mid four figures, depending on page count and features. We scope every project to your goals so you're paying for a site that drives results — not pages that just sit there. You'll get a flat quote before anything starts.
How much should I spend on ads per month?+
Most small businesses start between $1,500 and $5,000/month in ad spend, separate from management. The right number depends on your market, average sale value, and how fast you want to grow — we'll recommend a budget that can realistically produce customers.
What's the difference between SEO and AEO?+
SEO (search engine optimization) gets you ranking in Google's Map Pack and organic results. AEO (answer engine optimization) gets your business named when someone asks an AI assistant like ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google's AI Overview who to hire. They overlap — strong, well-structured content helps both — but AEO specifically targets the AI answers more customers rely on every month.
