Service · Website Design & Rebuilds
Website design and rebuilds for local businesses
A site that earns the call, the booking, or the order — on a phone, on a weak signal, in three seconds.
Most local business sites lose the customer before a human is ever involved. The menu is a PDF. The hours are wrong. The booking button is buried under a slideshow. We rebuild the whole thing to one standard: one obvious next action, fast on mobile, real photos of your actual room and your actual crew, and an asset you own outright.
What's actually included
- Conversion-first layout — call, book, or order above the fold
- Mobile-first build, tested on real phones and weak signal
- Photography of your business when the project calls for it — no stock
- Menus, services, hours, and location that stay accurate
- Local search setup: schema, map listing alignment, page titles
- Forms and booking wired to where you actually read messages
- Speed budget enforced — a slow page is a broken page
- You own the domain, the site, the copy, and the images
How the build runs
Six phases, the same on every OTECH job. Imagine: we sit with the real problem and the real customer. Build: the site gets machined, not assembled from a template. Test: it gets proven on phones, on slow connections, and with someone who's never seen it. Implement: it ships with your domain, your email, your analytics. Audit: we check it against outcomes, not opinions. Repeat: every cycle sharpens it.
Who this is for
Restaurants, event venues, contractors, trades, salons, clinics, shops — any local business where the website is the front door and it's currently costing you money. If you want a vanity rebuild that looks different but does nothing, we're the wrong shop.
What it costs to keep it right
One build fee, then a monthly retainer. The retainer covers hosting, security, uptime, search upkeep, and light content changes — new hours, seasonal menus, a new service, a new photo. No site holds tolerance on its own.
Common questions
- How much does a new website cost?
- Most local business builds land between a few thousand and low five figures as a one-time build fee, scoped to page count, photography, and integrations. Ongoing care is a separate monthly retainer. You get a fixed number before anything starts — no hourly surprises.
- How long does it take?
- A focused rebuild for a restaurant, venue, or service company typically runs three to six weeks from kickoff, including a photo shoot when the project calls for one. Larger builds with booking, ordering, or member areas take longer and get a written schedule.
- Do I own the site when it's done?
- Yes. You own the domain, the content, the photography, and the site itself. The retainer buys care and upkeep, not custody. If you ever leave, the site goes with you.
- Can you work with my existing website?
- Sometimes. If the foundation is sound we improve it. If it's a dated builder template fighting you on speed and mobile, rebuilding is cheaper than patching — we'll tell you which one you're looking at before you spend anything.
- Do you handle hosting and updates after launch?
- That's the retainer: hosting, security patches, uptime, search upkeep, and light content changes like new hours, menus, or seasonal offers.
