Refresh
You have already put real work into the current site. We preserve what is working, create a palette of possible looks, and help you choose and combine options into the final sign-off site.
Website refresh / Search / AI-ready / Spend cleanup
New look, better reach.
Upgrade your website so it looks better, is easier for people, search engines, and AI assistants to find, and helps hunt wasteful costs.
SEO
Search Engine Optimization is precise. Search engines read visible content and behind-the-scenes details, so we work through a full checklist: titles, descriptions, headings, links, service wording, locations, and structure.
AI-ready
Many searches now start in a chat box, from ChatGPT to Google AI results. AI systems weigh sites through precise, formal signals, so we use a checklist for clear facts, services, locations, and answers.
Cost cleanup
Small web costs add up quietly. We look for unused subscriptions, overlapping tools, paid tiers, renewals, and ownership gaps, then sort what is worth keeping, changing, or canceling.
How we work
Low-pressure choices, clear next steps.
The process is built around preserving what is useful, comparing real options, and turning the chosen direction into a final site you can sign off with confidence.
Review what exists
We start with a short intake interview, then review the current site, what is already working, what should be preserved, and where visitors may be getting stuck.
Explore possible looks
You get a small palette of design directions so you can compare real options instead of guessing from abstract descriptions.
Choose and combine
You can pick one direction or mix pieces from different options, including the existing website, until the site feels right.
Prepare the final site
Once the direction is chosen, we tighten the pages, search details, AI-ready structure, mobile flow, and practical launch items.
About Elie
Decades of software judgment, applied practically.
I have spent decades in software engineering, which means I look at websites as more than a surface design problem. A good site also has structure, maintainability, search signals, tool choices, and costs underneath it.
For independent businesses, I am excited by how quickly the web is changing right now: AI search, better design tools, automation, and new ways to make small sites more capable without making them bloated.
Where savings hide
Small bills add up quietly.
Subscriptions: website apps, booking tools, email add-ons, analytics products, image tools, or AI tools nobody is actively using.
Overlap: two services doing the same job, legacy plugins kept out of habit, or a paid tier chosen years ago that is now too large.
Renewals: domains, hosting, themes, plugins, and business directories that renew automatically but no longer support the business.
Ownership: unclear logins, scattered billing, and vendor accounts that make it hard to know what is essential and what can go.
Budget
Simple retainer, visible progress.
Start: most projects begin with a practical 10-hour initial bundle, so there is room to review, design, and make useful progress without a long proposal cycle.
Accounting: work is tracked in clear $100/hour increments, with notes on what was done and what changed.
Visibility: you are kept up to date as the budget is used, with a clear warning when the retainer reaches 50%.
