Web design · SEO · Automation

Be the signal, not the noise.

Beacon Digital designs high-performance websites, gets them found on Google, and automates the follow-up — so the right customers find you first, and no lead ever slips through.

No pressure, no jargon — you'll leave the call with a plan either way.

  • Next.js & React
  • WCAG AA accessible
  • Core Web Vitals
  • Structured data & schema
  • Local SEO
  • Workflow automation
  • Conversion-first UX
  • Hosted on Vercel

What we do

Three levers. One studio. They're stronger together.

Most businesses hire a designer, an SEO, and an ops person — and they never talk. We build all three as one system, so each one makes the others work harder.

01

Web design & development

Websites that carry their weight

Custom-designed, hand-coded, and built to convert.

Not a template and not a page-builder. Every Beacon site is designed around your customers and coded by hand on the same modern stack that powers Linear and Vercel — so it loads in under a second, works on every phone, and turns visitors into booked work.

What you get

  • Custom design in your brand
  • Hand-coded Next.js build
  • Mobile-first & accessible (WCAG AA)
  • Copy & content structure
  • Launch, analytics & full handoff
02

SEO & local search

Get found the moment they search

Technical and local SEO that puts you on the map — literally.

A beautiful site nobody finds is a brochure in a drawer. We build search in from the foundation: clean structured data, fast pages Google rewards, and the local-SEO groundwork that lands you in the map pack for the 'near me' searches your customers actually make.

What you get

  • Technical SEO & structured data
  • Google Business Profile optimization

03

Automation

Let the busywork run itself

Capture every lead and automate the follow-up.

The fastest business wins the job. We wire your site to the tools you already use so every inquiry is captured, routed, and answered instantly — then automate the follow-ups, bookings, review requests, and reporting that quietly eat your week.

How we work

From first call to fully lit

A clear path, no mystery, no runaround. You see the site come together as it's built, and you own every piece of it at the end.

01

Discover

We start with a call, not a contract. We learn your business, your customers, and what a win looks like — then map the fastest path to it.

02

Design

You get a premium, on-brand design built around one job: turning visitors into customers. No stock templates, ever.

03

Build

Hand-coded, fast, and accessible — with SEO and share cards baked in from the first commit. You review as it comes together.

04

Launch & grow

We ship it, wire up your automations and analytics, and stay on to help it grow. Every line of it is yours.

Why Beacon

A website should be a beacon, not a business card

It should pull the right people toward you and make the next step obvious. Everything below serves that one idea.

Hand-coded, never templated

Real code on a modern stack means faster, safer, and genuinely yours — not a rented theme you'll outgrow.

Designed to convert

Every section earns its place. We design around the one action you want a visitor to take.

Fast & accessible by default

Sub-second loads and WCAG AA accessibility aren't add-ons — they're how we build, and Google rewards both.

One partner, three levers

Design, search, and automation compound when one team builds them together. That's the whole idea behind Beacon.

You own everything

Code, content, domain, analytics — all yours. No lock-in, no lease, no hostage situations.

Proof you can click

We'd rather show than tell. Every claim here is backed by work you can open in a new tab.

Pricing

Simple packages. Real outcomes.

Every project is scoped to your business, so these are starting points, not final quotes. You'll get a fixed, all-in number on our call — no hourly meters, no surprises.

The studio

A studio, not a factory

Beacon Digital is a design-and-engineering studio for small and growing businesses. We build the kind of website most agencies charge five figures for and most template shops simply can't — then we make sure it gets found and does your follow-up for you.

The philosophy is simple: a website should be a beacon, not a business card. It should pull the right people toward you and make the next step obvious. The design, the search work, and the automation all serve that one idea.

We keep the roster small on purpose — so the person who designs your site is the person who builds it, and the person who answers your email.

Questions

Good to know

How much does a website cost?

Projects start around the figures on our Launch, Grow, and Systems packages and are scoped to your business from there. You'll get a fixed, all-in quote before any work begins — never an hourly meter. The fastest way to a real number is a short call.

How long does it take?

Most sites launch in a few weeks, depending on scope and how quickly we get your content. We'll give you a real timeline — and the milestones — on our first call, and you'll watch it come together as we build.

Do I actually own the site?

Completely. The code, the content, the domain, and the analytics are all yours. We build on open standards with no proprietary lock-in, so you're never renting your own website or held hostage for changes.

What do you build on, and why does it matter?

We hand-code on Next.js and React and host on Vercel — the modern stack behind companies like Linear and OpenAI. In plain terms: it's faster, more secure, better for SEO, and far more flexible than a template or a page-builder like Wix or Squarespace.

Do you work with my industry or location?

We work remotely with businesses across the U.S., from local trades and restaurants to product and service brands. If you have customers to reach and a next step you want them to take, we can help — the playbook adapts to the business.

I already have a site. Can you help with just SEO or automation?

Yes. We take on audits, rebuilds, SEO, and automation on top of an existing site. We'll tell you honestly whether a tune-up or a rebuild is the better spend before you commit to either.

What are the ongoing costs?

Hosting is inexpensive — often just a low monthly platform fee. Beyond that there's an optional care plan for updates, monitoring, and support — but because you own everything, staying is a choice, not a requirement.

How do we get started?
