Growth studio for local businesses

Your website should bring you work.

We build websites that turn visitors into booked customers, then make sure the right people find them on Google and in AI answers.

Most local business websites lose customers quietly.

  1. People land on your site from their phone and can't find the button to book.

  2. Google shows your competitor first, and AI assistants don't mention you at all.

  3. A lead fills in your form at 9 pm and hears back two days later, after they've booked somewhere else.

Five levers. One system. The weakest one sets your month.

Most owners buy a website and stop. We build the whole chain and start with the broken link.

Why the name

A tenpenny nail is the standard framing nail. Not decorative, not made for show. It holds the building together. That is how we build.

The standard nail. The one that holds.

Launch is the start, not the end.

Every site we host includes care: hosting, updates, up to 30 minutes of changes each month, and a short monthly report. Care from $75/month. Your first month is included.

Questions owners ask

How much does it cost?

Projects start from $750 and care from $75/month. Your quote depends on scope: pages, features, integrations and content. You get a fixed price in writing before any work starts.

How long does it take?

Most sites go live in 1 to 2 weeks after we have your content.

Do I own my website?

Yes. Once paid in full, the site and content are yours. If you ever leave care, we hand over every file.

What do you need from me?

Your logo, photos, and 15 minutes to tell us about your business. We handle the rest.

What if I don't like it?

You see a preview before launch and get two rounds of revisions included.

What are GEO and AEO?

GEO (generative engine optimisation) and AEO (answer engine optimisation) mean shaping your site so AI assistants like ChatGPT and Perplexity, and Google's answer boxes, can understand your business and recommend it, not just list it in the blue links.

Do you work with businesses like mine?

We work with local service businesses, especially martial arts schools and roofing companies. If you take bookings or quote requests, we can help.
