Web Development & Hosting

Websites built like infrastructure, not marketing toys

Most small business websites are built on platforms that prioritize easy editing over speed, security, and search performance. The result is sites that take 5 seconds to load, get rebuilt every three years, and perform poorly in search and AI assistants. We build sites the way we build networks — engineered, documented, fast, and supported.

What we build

Marketing sites for small and mid-sized businesses across NY/NJ. Service business sites with lead capture and booking. Multi-location business sites with location-specific pages and hyperlocal SEO. Healthcare practice sites with HIPAA-aware contact forms. Restaurant sites with menu management, reservations, and online ordering integration. SaaS and product landing pages with conversion-focused architecture.

Stack we deploy

Astro 5 or Next.js 15 for the front end — modern frameworks that ship near-zero JavaScript by default and produce sites that score Lighthouse 95+ out of the box. Tailwind CSS for design. Cloudflare Pages for hosting with global edge delivery. Cloudflare for DNS, security, and CDN. Formspree or Tally for contact forms. Plausible for privacy-friendly analytics. Optional CMS layer (Sanity, Contentful, Notion-as-CMS) where editorial workflows justify it.

SEO and AI built in

Every site we ship includes: full schema.org structured data (LocalBusiness, Service, FAQPage, Article, BreadcrumbList), Open Graph and Twitter Card meta on every page, an llms.txt file for AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity to read, an AI-friendly robots.txt that explicitly allows GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and Google-Extended, an auto-generated XML sitemap, and proper canonical URLs sitewide. Sites are designed to rank for local intent and to appear in AI-generated answer overviews — not just blue links.

Migrations

Switching off WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, or Hostinger Website Builder is one of the most common engagements. We handle content audit, redirect mapping (so existing rankings move with you), DNS cutover, and post-launch monitoring. Most migrations are 4–8 weeks end-to-end.

Ongoing support

Small change requests, content updates, and adding new pages are billable hourly or on a small monthly retainer. We do not lock clients into expensive ongoing contracts for sites that should not need much ongoing work.
