01 — What’s included
I build on WordPress when your team needs to edit content and on Next.js when you need something custom. Either way the site ships with the fundamentals that most local sites miss: real performance budgets, accessibility, structured data for your services and location, and tracking that tells you which pages produce leads.
- 01Discovery session: goals, customers, competitors, and the pages you actually need
- 02Custom design, mobile-first, matched to your brand
- 03WordPress or Next.js build with an editable content structure
- 04Local SEO foundation: service and location pages, schema markup, Google Business Profile setup
- 05Contact, quote, or booking flows with spam protection
- 06Hosting setup, analytics, documentation, and a handoff session
Local context — Fort Lauderdale
Fort Lauderdale is the center of the marine industry, and that shapes the web work here: yards, brokers and refit specialists all have large photo libraries and clients who may be on another continent. Around it sit hospitality, construction and professional services, most of them serving a mix of residents, seasonal owners and visitors.
Websites rarely need only one thing done to them. For Fort Lauderdale businesses I also take on website redesign in Fort Lauderdale and e-commerce websites in Fort Lauderdale, and just up the road I cover business websites in Miami and business websites in West Palm Beach.
Business websites in Fort Lauderdale
A new business here is competing with established marine and hospitality names that visitors already recognize. The site has to look credible on the first screen, load fast on a phone, and make the next step obvious, whether that is a quote, a booking or a call. I build it with local search structure for Broward County so it is found as well as it presents.
Who I build for in Fort Lauderdale
- Marine, yachting and refitHundreds of vessel and project photos have to load quickly on a phone, and capability pages have to read clearly to an owner or captain who found you from abroad.
- Hospitality and tourismVisitors plan on phones from out of state, so fast pages, clear directions and working booking links decide who takes the reservation.
- Construction, trades and home servicesA page for each trade and each area it covers, plus a quote form that takes under a minute, is what turns a local search into a call.
- Professional and financial servicesClients check credibility before they ring, so clear team pages, service scope and contact paths carry more weight than visual flourish.

03 — Process
Four steps and no surprises: you approve the scope before work starts and the site before it launches.
01
Discovery
A short call or email exchange about your goals, your customers and what is not working today. Free, with no commitment.
02
Proposal
A written scope, timeline and fixed price, so you know exactly what you are getting before anything starts.
03
Development
The work happens on a staging site you can open at any time, with plain-language updates at agreed checkpoints.
04
Delivery
Testing, a launch in a low-traffic window, documentation and a handoff session, then support while your team settles in.
04 — Questions
01We have hundreds of project photos. Will the site still be fast?
Yes. Large galleries are a delivery problem, not a reason to cut the photos. Images are resized to the sizes actually used, served in modern formats, and loaded as the visitor scrolls, so a page with fifty photos can still load in about a second.
02Can we meet in person in Fort Lauderdale?
When it helps, yes. Most Fort Lauderdale projects run remotely by video call and email, and I can come over for a kickoff or a launch review. Site visits for photography or a yard walkthrough can be arranged as part of the project.
03How long does a new business website take?
Four to eight weeks from kickoff to launch for a typical Fort Lauderdale business, with most of the variance coming from how quickly content and photos arrive.
04Do you write the content?
I structure every page and write draft copy for service pages so the site launches complete. You review and adjust, and I can work with a copywriter or photographer you already use.
05Will the site show up on Google Maps and local search?
The site is built with the structure Google uses for local results: a page per service, location information, schema markup, and a Google Business Profile that matches. Ranking also depends on reviews and competition, which I will be honest about.
