[ × ] / what's broken

Where you're leaking customers.

Your customers in Annandale can't find you on Google

A search for your dish plus "Annandale" pulls up Yelp, DoorDash, and a Facebook post from 2019 — not a website with your menu and hours. Heritage Drive-Little River Turnpike foot traffic is great. Online discovery is broken.

II.

Facebook is doing the work a website should do

Hours, photos, specials, language toggle, contact — all of it pinned to a feed. Customers under 35, customers without Facebook accounts, customers searching from out of town all bounce. The page that fixes that does not exist yet.

III.

A polished site costs $5,000-$8,000 in NoVA — supposedly

Reston and Tysons agencies pitch enterprise prices for what is, structurally, a five-page small-business site. The "boutique" markup pays for an account manager you will not meet again after kickoff.

What actually gets fixed.

$2,000 flat — and Drake drives to Annandale himself

Five-page hand-coded site, on-location photo shoot (5-15 minutes from a typical Fairfax County base), Google Business Profile claim, 60 days of edits. Half down, half on launch. The number on the proposal is the number you pay.

II.

Bilingual when your customers read in two languages

If a meaningful share of your regulars grew up speaking another language, the site gets a proper toggle — English plus Korean, Vietnamese, Spanish, Amharic, or another language you serve. Each version is indexed separately. Bundled, not upsold.

III.

Tuned for Fairfax County search

LocalBusiness schema, GBP optimization, Markham Street, Columbia Pike, and Heritage Drive-area coverage in copy and structured data. The phrases your customers actually type — not generic "best restaurant near me" — show up in the page.

[ ? ] / common questions

Before you ask.

Do you actually shoot photos in Annandale?

Yes. The 30-minute on-location shoot is part of the $2,000. Heritage Drive, Little River Turnpike, anywhere in 22003 is a short drive. Kitchen, dining room, signature dishes, your team if you want to be on the site. You get the raw files too.

How does the photo shoot get scheduled?

After the deposit clears, we pick a 30-minute window that works for your business — typically between the lunch and dinner rush, or on a slow morning. Drake brings the camera and lights, you provide the kitchen access.

What if my business is not a restaurant — does Annandale pricing change?

No. The $2,000 flat applies to any small business in Annandale that fits the profile: single location or small chain, family or owner-operated, no real website or stuck on a builder subdomain. Salons, contractors, dental practices, retail — same pricing, same process.

How fast can you launch?

Standard timeline is 7-14 days from deposit to launch. Annandale projects tend to ship on the faster end because the decision-makers are usually the owner — no committee review delays.

What about ongoing edits after launch?

60 days of small edits are bundled. After that, $75/month covers ongoing edits, hosting, security updates, and a copy-paste monthly post template for your Google Business Profile. Or skip the retainer and email me when you need something; I bill an hour at a time.
