Good questions.
What marketing services do you offer for Humboldt County businesses?+
A complete set of digital marketing services: custom web design, local SEO, Google Business Profile management, content marketing, review management, paid advertising, and custom tools and apps that streamline your workflow. I serve Arcata, Eureka, Fortuna, McKinleyville, Trinidad, Blue Lake, and all of Humboldt County.
How much does a website cost?+
Website packages start at $1,500, with hosting at just $10/month. Every site is built for conversions and SEO from day one. No hidden fees, no long-term contracts. Call (707) 637-7277 for a free consultation and custom pricing.
How long does local SEO take to show results?+
Local SEO typically shows results within 3–6 months, depending on your competition and current website. Paid advertising can deliver results within days. Combining local SEO with Google Ads gives the fastest growth — most Humboldt County businesses see new leads within 30–60 days.
Do you serve all of Humboldt County or just Arcata?+
All of Humboldt County, including Arcata, Eureka, Fortuna, McKinleyville, Trinidad, Blue Lake, Ferndale, and surrounding areas. I create targeted landing pages to help you rank in each community.
What is local SEO and why does my business need it?+
Local SEO helps your business show up on Google when customers search for your services in your area. When someone searches 'plumber in Eureka' or 'marketing agency near me,' local SEO makes sure you get found. It includes website optimization, Google Business Profile management, local citations, and review building.
How can I get more Google reviews for my business?+
My review management service collects reviews from happy customers, monitors your reviews across Google, Yelp, and Facebook, and helps you respond professionally. Businesses with strong reviews convert 2.7x more customers.
Can you build custom tools or apps for my business?+
Yes. I build booking systems, dashboards, internal tools and apps designed around how your business actually works, so you spend less time on busywork and more time with customers.
Do I need a long-term contract?+
Never. I work month-to-month and would rather earn your loyalty every month than lock you in. Cancel anytime. No surprises, no hidden fees.
What types of businesses do you work with?+
All kinds of local businesses: restaurants, salons, retail shops, home services, landscapers, plumbers, electricians, HVAC companies, professional services, nonprofits — any business looking to grow online.
How do I know if the marketing is actually working?+
You get detailed monthly reports on website traffic, keyword rankings, leads generated, and return on ad spend. You'll see exactly where your money is going.
I'm a small business. Can I afford this?+
Absolutely. I specialize in small and emerging Humboldt County businesses, with affordable website packages, local SEO plans, and flexible ad budgets. One new customer often pays for a whole month of marketing.
What makes you different?+
I'm local and I understand this market. No long-term contracts, no cookie-cutter solutions — every strategy is built for your business. I focus on real results, not vanity metrics, and I'm invested in seeing Humboldt businesses thrive.
How do I get started?+
Call (707) 637-7277 for a free consultation. We'll talk about your goals, your customers, and which services make sense, then build a custom plan for your growth.
