Sites we built this way
Same build, same hosting. Scores are from Google's Lighthouse test on desktop, out of 100.
Somebody in your town needs you right now. Whose phone rings?
It's 7pm. A water heater lets go in a basement across town. The homeowner grabs a phone and searches "water heater repair near me."
They skip the site that takes forever to load. They skip the one-page site with a logo and a phone number. They tap the business with a page about exactly their problem, in their town, and they call.
That call goes to whoever looks like the obvious choice in three seconds. If your site is slow, missing or one page long, that is somebody else.
Missing calls because you're on a job? Our AI receptionist answers in two rings, day or night, and books the job while the customer is still on the line. It is not part of the $500, but you can add it any time.
What changes when your site goes live
Every part of the build has one job. Get you found by the people already looking, and get them to call.
You show up for every job you do.
How: every service gets its own page, with no cap. Someone searching for drain cleaning lands on a page about drain cleaning, not your home page.
You show up in the towns you want work from.
How: five town pages: your home city plus four you pick.
You look like the obvious choice in three seconds.
How: a home page that says who you are, what you do and where you work, with your number right under their thumb.
They trust you before they dial.
How: an About page with your story, your years in business and what you stand behind.
You show up when customers ask AI.
How: every page is written so ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI answers can read it and recommend you.
Your Google listing gets more calls.
How: your Google Business Profile finally points to a real site with a page for each service and town, so the people who find you on Maps have a reason to call.

Why it loads faster, gets hacked less and costs less to keep.
WordPress runs a huge share of the web, and it is a fine tool for a blog or a store. For a local service business, it is the slow, expensive way to do a simple job.
Your site is built ahead of time as static HTML and served from a CDN close to your customer. No database, no plugins, nothing to patch.
| Typical WordPress site | Your static site | |
|---|---|---|
| How a page loads | Built from a database every time someone visits | Already built. The finished file is sent straight to the visitor |
| Where it lives | One server, usually in one city | A global CDN, copied to servers close to your visitors |
| Plugins | SEO, speed, security, forms and backups each need one, often premium | None. Those jobs are built into the site |
| Updates and patches | Core, theme and every plugin, forever | Nothing to update on the live site |
| Security | A login page, a database and plugins to break into | No login page, no database, no plugins on the live site |
| When something updates | A plugin conflict can take the site down | Nothing changes unless we change it |
| Speed | Slow without caching plugins and better hosting | Fast out of the box |
Faster
A pre-built page from a nearby server beats a page assembled on demand from one far away. Visitors on a phone with two bars of signal feel the difference first.
Speed is money. A slow page loses the customer before they ever see your phone number.
Safer
Hacked WordPress sites most often get in through an out-of-date plugin, theme or login page. Your live site has none of those.
There is no admin login for bots to guess and no database to break into. That removes the most common ways small business sites get hacked.
Cheaper to keep
No premium plugins means no stack of yearly licenses. No updates means no surprise bill when an update breaks the site.
Static files are also cheap to host. That is a big part of how we can include a full year of hosting at this price.
Every page, explained.
This is not a one-page site with your logo dropped in. It is a full website, with a page for each thing a customer might search for. Here is what you get.
A home page that sells
Your home page has one job. It tells a visitor who you are, what you do and where you work in the first few seconds, then gives them a clear way to call you.
We write it around your real services, your real service area and the reasons customers pick you. Your phone number sits where a thumb can reach it on every screen.
A page for every service, with no cap
Most small business sites have one Services page with a bulleted list. Google cannot rank a bullet point. Someone searching for water heater repair wants a page about water heater repair.
So every service you offer gets its own page. Each one explains the work, the signs a customer needs it, what to expect and how to book. Ten services means ten pages, and each page is another way for a customer to find you.
5 city pages
If you serve more than one town, you need to tell Google that plainly. A city page is a page about your work in that town, written for the people who live there.
Your home city counts as one, and you pick four more. Each page covers the services you offer there and how to reach you.
An About page that builds trust
People hire people. The About page tells your story, how long you have been at it and what you stand behind.
It also helps search engines and AI assistants understand that your business is real. That matters more every year.
Contact, Privacy and Terms
Your Contact page carries your phone, email, hours and service area in one place. It is the page that turns a visitor into a call.
Privacy and Terms pages are written for your business. Real businesses have them, and their absence is a quiet red flag to customers and to Google.
Year one is hosting. Here is exactly what that means.
We want you to know precisely what you are buying. The $500 gets you a finished website and 12 months of hosting, and nothing on this list is hidden in fine print.
Included for 12 months
- ✓Hosting on a global CDN for 12 months
- ✓SSL certificate and HTTPS
- ✓Connecting your domain
- ✓Launching the site and making sure it works
Not included, available on a plan
- +Domain registration (you keep owning yours)
- +Content changes and new pages after launch
- +CRM, review requests, booking and phone tools
- +Ongoing SEO work
Because the site is static, it does not need constant care to stay up. It will keep running all year without plugin updates or patches. When you want to grow, the tools are ready.
When you are ready for more, it is all here.
Your $500 site runs on the same platform as GotLocal, our full marketing system for local businesses. Add a plan any time, during year one or after, and the tools switch on around the site you already have.

Why we are doing this
I have watched good local businesses lose jobs to worse competitors because their website let them down. Most of them were stuck paying for slow WordPress sites they could not fix, or had no site at all.
We built a faster, simpler way to make websites. 500 sites at $500 is how we put it in front of as many business owners as we can. If you are one of them, I would love to build yours.

Questions
What's the catch?
There isn't one. We hope you like the site enough to add a GotLocal plan later. If you don't, you keep the site and take it anywhere.
How can a real website cost only $500?
Agencies charge $5,000 to $10,000 because every site is built by hand on WordPress. We built our own system that writes and builds a fast static site in a fraction of the time, so it costs us far less to make and to host. You get the same full site for less.
What exactly does the $500 cover?
The full website build, plus 12 months of hosting on our CDN with SSL. That is the whole deal: a finished site, live on your domain, hosted for a year. CRM, reviews, booking, phone tools and content changes after launch are part of the GotLocal plans.
What happens when the year is up?
You choose. Move onto a GotLocal plan from $299 a month and we keep hosting it, maintaining it and growing it. Or take your site files and host them anywhere you like. There is no contract and no penalty either way.
Do I really own the site?
Yes. You paid for it, so it is yours. If you leave, you take the site with you.
Can I add a plan before the year is up?
Yes. If you want the CRM, review requests or booking from day one, you can add a GotLocal plan at any time. Your site stays the same and the tools get switched on.
Why not just use WordPress?
WordPress builds every page from a database each time someone visits, and it leans on plugins for SEO, speed, security and forms. Each plugin is something to update, pay for and worry about. A static site is already built, served from a CDN, and has nothing on the live site to patch or hack.
Will a static site rank better?
Nobody can promise rankings, and you should be wary of anyone who does. What we can promise is the stuff Google rewards: fast pages, clean code, schema markup and a dedicated page for every service and city. Those are the parts of SEO you control, and this site does them right.
Is this a template?
No. The design system is proven, but every word is written about your business. Nothing is copied from another customer.
Do I need a domain?
If you already own one, we use it. If you do not, we will help you register one, which typically costs about the price of a lunch per year.
How long does it take?
Your site is built within 24 hours of your completed onboarding form. If you send it the day you sign up, you could be reviewing your site the next day.
What if I don't like it?
You see your finished site before it goes live and can ask for changes. If you still don't love it, we refund your $500.
Why only 500?
Every site is built and reviewed by our team. 500 is what we can do well at this price.
