A local designer · not an agency
Taking new builds
I build your website first. You pay when you love it.
I'm Sam. I design, build, and host websites for local businesses — plumbers, bakers, barbers, garages — from right here in Ponca City, Oklahoma. The work below is the whole pitch.
AW Marketing— Ponca City, OK · live on their own domain
- 80+ websites built so far, most on spec
- No deposit, nothing to sign
- Hosting & updates handled
01 — The work
I've built 80+ websites, most of them on spec. These two run on their clients' own domains.
Real, live websites I designed, built and host, on their owners' own domains — the address bar on each window is the actual URL. Click a window to see it running live. Poke around on your phone; that's how your customers will see it.
EACH WINDOW OPENS ITS CASE STUDY ↗
Your trade isn't up there yet? Good — that means yours gets to be the best one.
02 — Running live(Not a screenshot)
This one's running live
Pick a site: what loads below is the actual live site, served into this page — a real browser window, not a picture. Scroll it, click around. The phone beside it is the very same site at phone width. Every site I build works on every screen, and this is how I prove it.
Same site · phone width
Served from the same server your site would live on. What you're looking at is exactly what your customers get.

03 — What I do
One person to call, not three vendors to chase
Websites, the calls and Google listing that send people to them, and the marketing, photos and tools that keep them coming — all through one number, with me overseeing every piece.
Websites
-
Website Design
A clean, custom site built around your business — your services, your photos, your story — that looks right on every phone and every desktop.
Designed by hand · built to fit -
Hosting & Domains
I put your site online and keep it there — domain setup, secure hosting, and monitoring, all managed for you. You never touch a control panel.
Online & watched over -
Updates & Maintenance
New hours, new photos, a new service to list? Send it over and it goes up. Your website stays as current as your business.
Send it · it goes up -
Website Redesign
Already have a site that's slow, dated, or awkward on a phone? I'll build the replacement and you can compare them side by side before you switch anything.
Set them side by side
Calls, listing & reviews
-
AI Receptionist
When you can't pick up — nights, weekends, up a ladder — an assistant answers, takes the caller's name, number and what they need, and texts it to you straight away.
Every call answered · you get a text -
Missed-Call Text-Back
Phone rings, nobody picks up, and the caller gets a text from you within seconds — so they don't move on to the next name on the list.
Missed it · they still hear back -
Google Business Profile
You're probably already on Google — and the listing may be wrong. Claiming, verifying, fixing the category and hours, adding photos, and keeping it current.
Claimed · correct · kept current -
Review Generation
Reviews decide who gets called, and asking is the part everybody skips. After each job, every customer gets a text or email with a direct link to leave one.
Ask after the job · every time
Marketing
-
Social Media Posts & Management
A content calendar, posts designed and captioned for your business, published on the platforms your customers use, and a check-in every month.
Planned · posted · checked monthly -
Paid Ads
Google search ads, Local Services Ads and Facebook/Instagram ads — set up, managed and reported on every month. Your ad spend goes straight to the platform.
Set up · managed · reported monthly -
SEO & AI Visibility
On-page and local SEO so Google can tell what you do and where — and the same groundwork so ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude can describe you correctly.
Found on Google · clear to AI
Creative
-
Logos, Branding & Graphic Design
A logo that holds up on a truck door and a phone screen, colors and fonts written down so they stay consistent, and the cards, flyers, signs and print ads that carry them.
Logo · colors · cards · signs · print -
Business Photography
Your storefront, your team, your products and your work on the job — photographed for where the pictures will actually be used.
Storefront · team · products · job sites -
Video for Websites & Social
Short clips of the real business — a promo for your website, reels for social, before-and-afters of the work — filmed and edited to be watched on a phone.

04 — Questions
The things you'd ask me over the counter
What does it cost?
One flat price for the build, then one monthly figure that covers the hosting, the domain, the certificate and any updates you want. It's the same for a one-page shop and a five-page contractor, so there's no quote to sit and wait on.
Ask me and I'll tell you straight away. What I won't do is post it here ahead of the work — you see your finished website on a live link before you're asked for any of it. No deposit, ever, and nothing to sign to look.
I already have a website. Can you replace it?
That's the easiest sell I've got. I'll build the new one anyway and put it on a live link, and you can set it side by side with what you have now. If mine isn't clearly better, don't pay me.
Your current site stays exactly as it is while you compare. Nothing switches over until you say so.
Who handles the domain and the technical stuff?
I do — registration, hosting, security, renewals, all of it. It's part of the deal, not an upsell. You run your business; when anything about the website comes up, you call one person: me.
How long does it take?
Not long — most of the work happens before you've committed to anything, which is the whole point. Tell me about your business and I'll tell you when to expect your link.
05 — Where I work
Based in Ponca City. Building across Oklahoma.
Most of my work is within about an hour of home, which means I can drive out and shake your hand if you'd rather do it that way.
06 — Contact
Let's get your business online
Tell me a little about your business — what you do and what town you're in — and I'll take it from there. Remember: you'll see the site before you ever see a bill.
Got it. I'll text or call you within a day.
If you'd rather not wait, call me: (580) 304-3999
