WEBSITE DESIGN

& LOCAL SEO (SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION)
for small tourism industry businesses

We help small businesses in the hospitality industry with
establishing or freshening their online presence
with a brand-new, strategy-packed website…
ALL IN TWO WEEKS..

Your website is the first impression your business makes on potential customers.
It’s time to have a website you are proud of.

Now more than ever, having a website is vital to your small business.
And not just any website.

A strategic, well-organized website created to turn Googlers into Guests.

Whether you’re an activity operator or a restaurant, a B&B or a winery, a travel agent
or an ice cream shop — you know your future customer is sitting at home, Googling your destination, daydreaming of their next getaway.

Let’s make sure your business is found online by your future guests.

Brands we’ve worked with:

All vacation plans start with a Google search.

The best part about a vacation is the anticipation.
Is your website showing up when your future guests start to research their trip?

Your website is your most important marketing tool.

But just having any old website isn’t enough.
✓ The content needs to be written and organized strategically
✓ It needs to function well. (Slow loading sites are the #1 way of losing viewers.)
✓ It needs to look good (goodbye, DIY templates that all look the same!)
✓ It needs to be current, and updated with ongoing content targeting your keywords (hello, SEO!). After all, if no one finds your site, what good is it serving?
✓ And, it needs to look cohesive with your social media and your Google listing.

Without these things, launching a website is kind of like printing out an order of rack cards, and just leaving them in the box in your garage.

For years.
(Not exactly a recipe for digital success…)

THE PROCESS

STEP 1:
PRE-DEPARTURE PLANNING

Like any vacation, the more prep you do, the better! You’ll receive our comprehensive content planning workbook, so you will be well prepared to gather the words & photos needed for a stellar website.

**No need to commit to your 2 Week Website build date until your content is ready to go.

STEP 2:
IT’S GO TIME!
(Week 1)

Week 1 kicks off with a Monday morning for a 30 min Zoom chat, to go over your inspiration board. and to review any last questions. Then, it’s time to board! I will design your site this week, and at the end of the day on Friday, we’ll have a reveal meeting to go over the design.

STEP 3:
EDIT + LAUNCH
(Week 2)

Week 2 is all about the finishing touches.

We will connect any booking tools, attach your social media accounts, and do any and all revisions requested right up until end of the day Friday. And then….we launch!
