Competitor Analysis

Find Keywords Your Competitors Have (That You Don't)

Most agencies guess at keywords. I show you exactly what your competitors rank for, how hard each keyword is to win, and which ones you're missing out on.

Green difficulty scores? Those are easy wins waiting to happen. I prioritize the low-hanging fruit first so you see results fast.

Real Results

Every month, you get a report straight from Google Search Console. Real impressions, real clicks, real growth you can see.

No vanity metrics. No confusing dashboards. Just proof that more people are finding your business online.

Why I Build

I just spent 6 months building Steady Manager — a full SaaS product from the ground up. Database architecture, security policies, the whole thing.

If I can build enterprise-grade software, I can build your website. And I actually understand how search engines crawl and index pages — because I built tools that do it.

Every site has my name on it. If something breaks, you text me directly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers about pricing, timelines, and what to expect.

How much does a website cost for a small business?
My website plans start at $500/year, which includes hosting, maintenance, and unlimited updates. Most small businesses pay between $500-$1,000/year depending on complexity. No huge upfront costs, no surprise fees.
How much does local SEO cost?
Local SEO packages start at $100/month. This includes Google Business Profile optimization, local citation building, monthly reporting, and ongoing optimization. No long-term contracts required.
Is SEO worth it for small businesses?
Yes, if done right. Local SEO is one of the highest ROI marketing channels for service businesses. One new customer from Google often pays for months of SEO. The key is targeting keywords your customers actually search for.
How long does SEO take to work?
Most businesses see measurable improvements in 3-6 months. Local SEO typically moves faster than national SEO. You'll see Google Business Profile improvements within weeks, while organic rankings take longer to climb.
Do I need SEO if I have a new website?
A new website without SEO is like a billboard in the desert. Technical SEO should be built into your site from day one. I build all my websites with SEO fundamentals baked in—proper structure, fast load times, and schema markup.
What's included in website management?
All website plans include hosting, SSL, GA4 analytics, Microsoft Clarity heatmaps, and security updates. You also get monthly content changes—2 on Basic, 5 on Advanced, unlimited on the Unlimited plan. You focus on your business, I keep your site running.
