Two extras to get you found and running
Google Business Profile setup
So people searching locally on Google Maps actually find you. For most Algarve businesses this matters more than the website itself.
First blog post, done for you
You send the content, I publish it properly with formatting, images, and SEO. You see exactly how it’s done so you can do the next one yourself.
Worried about the price? Read this first. +
If €400 feels like a lot, it’s worth being honest about which one is true. Different answers, different conversations.
AYou see the value but the budget is tight right now.
This is a real investment for a small business. Tell me. We can split it into three payments instead of two, or start with a smaller scope and grow the site later. I’d rather work with you on a plan than have you walk away.
BYou don’t think it’s worth the price.
That’s fair, and useful for me to know. Tell me what’s missing, or what would make it feel worth it for you. Honest feedback helps me build something better, or work out whether we’re the right fit.
CYou’re not sure what you actually need.
Most common one. Send me a message describing where you are and what you’re trying to build. The first conversation is free and there’s no pressure to book anything.
Keeping it alive
After launch, you’ll have questions. Things will need changing. Something might break. The Care Plan is a standing relationship so you have someone to ask, without paying by the hour every time.
Full Care
Maintenance
Handover
Options A and B include
- Daily backups Off-site, automatic, so nothing is ever lost.
- WordPress & plugin updates Kept current so things don’t go stale or get hacked.
- Security monitoring Malware scans and login protection running in the background.
- WhatsApp on call For questions and “is this normal?” moments. Reasonable use.
- Small fixes (under 30 min) Text, images, links, hours, prices, layout tweaks.
- Quarterly check-in call 60 minutes every 3 months. Review, fix, plan ahead.
Social media
Setup for Instagram and Facebook (managed together through Meta Business Suite), with optional ongoing content support. Pick the level that matches what you need, and add monthly content later if it helps.
AI & automation
The quiet upgrade most small businesses don’t realise they can afford. Booking systems, email sequences, AI tools that handle repetitive admin so you can focus on the work only you can do.
Three things people most often ask for
“I keep copying things between tools.”
Workflow automation. Form → spreadsheet → email → CRM. Set up once, runs forever.
“I’m answering the same questions every day.”
AI chatbot trained on your FAQs, embedded on your site. Handles enquiries, books appointments, escalates the hard ones to you.
“My booking process is held together with email.”
Proper booking system (Calendly, Cal.com, or WordPress-native). Calendar integration, payment, automated confirmations, reminders.
Getting started
Send me a message. Tell me about your business and what you need.
If we’re a fit, you pay the deposit and we set a start date.
You send everything in one go. I build. We launch within two weeks.
