Working Sites, built and run in Lansing

As a local business owner, your website should be working.

A Working Site drafts pages for searches you should win, refreshes the ones going stale, and watches your rankings on Google and in AI search while you're closed. You approve every change with one click. Nothing publishes without you.

The problem

Your site went live. Then it stopped.

Three ways small-business websites die, all of them silent.

The template site

Picked from the same gallery half the town used. It looks fine, loads slowly, and Google can't tell you apart from the five other businesses that bought it.

The agency build

Expensive, beautiful at launch, untouched since. The agency moved on the week after your launch. Your news page still welcomes people to the new website.

The DIY builder site

You meant to update it. Then you had a business to run. The builder charges the card every month either way.

out of 100. Our own site, scored by the same audit we hand you.

Measured on 13 August 2026, not a past best. Local visibility is our weakest pillar at 47 and we are fixing it where you can watch. Run the audit on us and you will get this number.

The fix

A Working Site never clocks out.

There's a Get Found agent on shift inside it, 24/7. New pages get drafted. Stale pages get refreshed. Rankings get checked. Everything queues for your one-click approval, and nothing moves without it.

Watch

It tracks where you rank on Google for searches within driving distance, and whether Perplexity and Claude mention you. When something slips, it notices the same day.

Draft

It writes pages and posts in your voice: new pages aimed at searches you should win but don't, and posts for the seasonal openings and announcements you tell us about. Drafts, not decrees. Every one sits in your approval queue until you look.

Approve

You read it. One click approves it, one click kills it. Nothing goes live without that click. Ever.

The score tells the story.

One audit. Three kinds of site. One winner.

A scenario, not a case study.

The build

Built from a blank page. Built around you.

The agent runs the site. A person builds it. Every Working Site starts from scratch, takes shape in meetings with you, and doesn't ship until it matches what you pictured.

From scratch, every time

No gallery, no theme with your name swapped in. Your site is designed from a blank page, so it exists exactly once and looks like your business instead of the last customer's.

Multiple concepts, your pick

You don't get one take and a thumbs-up box. We bring multiple concepts, different directions for the same site, and you choose the one that matches your vision. Then we build that one out.

Meetings until you're satisfied

We meet as many times as it takes and keep revising until you're happy, at no extra charge. That's not a favor for whoever pushes hardest. It's the deal, for everyone.

Custom without the gamble

The usual risk of a custom site: a choice you loved quietly underperforms and nobody ever finds out. A Working Site closes that gap. Once you connect Search Console, which is free and takes one click on your side, the agent measures every page after launch: how many times Google showed it, how many people clicked, and where it sits on average. When a page starts getting shown less than it was, a fix lands in your approval queue with both numbers in it. You still decide. Your vision ships, and the data keeps it honest.

The flagship

Working Site

A site built from scratch in Lansing, never from a template, with the Get Found agent on shift inside it. Hosting and upkeep included. You approve everything before it ships.

Rebuild

$350/mo

Your current site, rebuilt as-is on our foundation. Content, URLs, and Google standing all kept. Pick this when the site is fine and the problem is that nobody works on it.

New Build

$450/mo

A new design from a blank page, never a template. You choose between multiple concepts and we revise until you're satisfied. Pick this when the current site embarrasses you, or when there isn't one yet.

Both include the agent, hosting, upkeep, and every meeting and revision along the way. Neither has a setup fee, and changes never cost extra.

Keeping your site?

Get Found runs on it, from $200/mo

The same agent, installed alongside the site you already have. It drafts pages and posts in your voice and queues them for your approval. If the site itself turns out to be the bottleneck, the Rebuild brings everything over with nothing lost.

+ Get BookedAdd-on · +$100/mo

Add it to any site we build and host. It needs the collection endpoint on your own domain, so it comes with a Rebuild or a New Build. It records what people do on your site, scores each visit against the customer you told us you want, and shows you every point in the score. When somebody leaves their name, it drafts the follow-up and puts it in your queue. You send it, or you don't.

Who it's for

For owners too busy running the business to run the website.

Six kinds of owner. One deal: a site built from scratch around your business, and an agent that keeps it working.

Storefronts and trades

Trades and contractors

You're on a roof at 7 am, not writing service pages.

Restaurants and cafes

The menu changed in March. The website disagrees.

Salons and studios

Instagram fills the chair. The site should pull weight too.

Practices and causes

Health and wellness

New patients search before they call. Be the answer they find.

Professional services

Law, accounting, real estate. Trust starts with a current, findable site.

Nonprofits

Donors look you up. Show them this year's programs, not 2021's.

Fair questions.

It means the site produces something every week: new page drafts aimed at searches you should win, refreshes of pages going stale, ranking and AI-answer checks, and with the Get Booked add-on, flags on the visits worth a look. All of it lands in a queue for you. None of it goes live until you click OK. Today that click is a reply to the morning email, and we record who approved what.

The drafts are built from your existing pages and how you actually talk, so they start in your voice. Then you read every word before it publishes. If a draft sounds off, you reject it with one click and tell us why. Your reason goes into the next drafting brief, word for word, so the next one comes back closer.

A score out of 100 on freshness, speed, local visibility, and AI answers, plus the three fixes we'd make first. It arrives as an email you can read in five minutes. No call required, no follow-up campaign.

No. Every site starts from a blank page. You see multiple concepts, different directions for the same business, and you pick the one that matches what you pictured. A template would be faster for us and worse for you: Google struggles to tell duplicated layouts apart, and your customers can feel it.

Rebuild if your current design is fine and the real problem is that nobody touches it. We rebuild it as-is on our foundation and keep your content, URLs, and Google standing. New Build if the design hurts you or you're starting from nothing. The audit usually makes the choice obvious.

Then we meet again and change it. You choose between multiple concepts up front, and after that we keep revising until you're satisfied, at no extra charge. There's no change fee and no hourly meter. The monthly price already covers the meetings, however many it takes.

No. Get Found installs alongside whatever you have now, WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, or something older. On a platform we can't write to, the drafts come back as finished copy with the page they belong on, ready to paste. If your current platform later turns out to be the bottleneck, the Rebuild brings everything over with nothing lost.

It gets measured instead of buried. Once you connect Search Console, the agent watches how every page performs after launch. If something you wanted isn't working, it flags it and drafts a fix, which waits in your approval queue like everything else. You see the numbers and make the call. No single choice is a bet you can't check.

New pages usually get indexed within days to weeks. Rankings move over months, and anyone promising a firm date is guessing. The free audit records where you start, so you can watch the numbers move month by month instead of taking our word for it.

Nothing awkward required. With Get Found, their work stays in place and we add to it. If you move to a Rebuild later, you keep everything you paid them for and we handle the handover.

People now ask Perplexity and Claude things like “who’s a good electrician near me” and take the answer they get. Those tools read websites and repeat the ones with clear, current pages. If yours is stale or vague, you're simply not in the answer. We ask Claude by name every week and check whether you show up, and Perplexity too when you want it on. Then we write the pages that get you there.

Yes, any month, no contracts and no setup fees to recoup. Your domain and your content are yours to take. We'd rather earn the next month than lock you into it.
