Services
Three things,
done properly.
Deadbounce isn't a full-service agency and isn't pretending to be. I build websites for local businesses, keep them running, and make sure Google knows you exist. That's the whole list.
Website design & build
A site built around the four things your customers actually came to find out.
Most local business websites lose people in five seconds, because a visitor can't tell whether you're open, where you are, what you charge, or how to reach you. Everything else is decoration until those four are answered. I build fast, mobile-first sites that answer them before anybody has to scroll, then give you room to show the work.
- Designed around your business rather than dropped into a template
- Mobile-first, because most of your traffic arrives on a phone
- Built static and served from Cloudflare, so pages load in under a second
- Contact, quote, booking and order forms wired straight to your inbox
- Accessible, keyboard-navigable and readable in direct sunlight
- You approve the homepage design before anything else gets built
Hosting, maintenance & care
The part cheap websites skip, and the reason they're worthless in two years.
A website isn't a thing you buy once. Certificates expire, dependencies go stale, contact forms quietly stop delivering, and nobody notices until a customer mentions it in passing. The care plan covers hosting, SSL, weekly backups, security updates, and uptime monitoring, plus real content edits every month so your hours and prices are never wrong.
- Hosting and SSL included, so there's no separate hosting bill to manage
- Weekly backups, verified restorable rather than assumed
- Security and dependency updates
- Uptime monitoring, so I find out before your customers do
- Between 30 minutes and 2 hours of content edits every month
- A person who answers. Email me, get a reply in 1 to 3 business days
Local SEO & Google
Being findable by the people already looking for you, nearby, right now.
For a local business, the Google Business Profile is often worth more than the website itself, because it's what shows in the map pack when somebody searches for pinball repair near me. I set it up properly, match your name, address, and phone against the site exactly, add local schema so Google can read your business, and connect Search Console so we can both see what people are actually searching for.
- Google Business Profile claimed, verified and fully filled in
- Name, address and phone matched exactly across site and profile
- Local business schema so Google can read your hours and services
- Search Console verified and sitemap submitted
- Service-area pages for the towns you actually cover
- Ongoing local SEO available at $200 a month

Based in Richmond, and happy to meet in person anywhere in these areas. For a lot of clients that first conversation goes better across a table than over video.
