Web design for Stratton businesses, where the whole market arrives by the carload.

Brattleboro Local does, from about an hour down the road. We hand-code every site in PHP - no WordPress, no templates - with local SEO, AEO and GEO built in, and we know the difference between Stratton the town and Stratton Mountain the resort village, which matters more for search than you would think. We publish our prices and start every relationship with a free audit.

Every Stratton small business pays the same published price: $749 one-time setup + $179/mo, everything included - the complete custom build (a $12,000 value we absorb up front), managed hosting, a custom AI chatbot, three custom SEO/AEO/GEO blog articles a week, local landing pages, and lead capture. No tiers, no upsells, and a published buyout schedule (down to a $299 transfer fee after four years) if you ever want to own the site outright.

Yes, because local SEO follows where the work happens, not where the searcher sits. When someone in Wellesley searches "stratton vt property management" or "house cleaning stratton mountain", Google shows businesses located and reviewed here. A tuned Google Business Profile, town-level pages, and reviews from real clients are how you become one of the three results that owner sees.

Because the platforms rent you your own customers. A fast site with your calendar, your photos, and your reviews gives repeat guests a way to book direct with no commission, builds an email list you actually own, and keeps working when a platform changes its algorithm or its fees. Think of it as the one marketing channel nobody can take away.

That is GEO (Generative Engine Optimization), and we build for it on every site: entity-rich schema, consistent business facts across the web, and content written to be cited. People increasingly ask AI assistants to plan Stratton ski weekends, from dinner reservations to finding a caretaker. We structure your site so the answer engines can read, verify, and recommend you.

In the off-season, so you launch ready. A standard build takes under a week, which means a site started in September is live well before the lifts spin. Mud season is the other smart window: quiet enough for you to give us good input, with a full summer to gather photos and reviews before winter.

Just the flat $179/mo subscription - there is nothing else to pick or pay for. It covers managed hosting, daily backups, security + uptime monitoring, AI chatbot tuning, three custom blog articles a week, written for your site, and your own admin login so content edits are instant and free. Cancel anytime with 30 days notice, and the published buyout schedule means you can take the site with you whenever you want.

Reassure them. A remote owner choosing a caretaker is buying trust: proof that you exist, respond, and show up in a storm. That means clear service descriptions, your real coverage area, photos of actual work, and a contact flow that answers fast. We can add a chatbot that captures inquiries at night, which is when owners sitting in the city actually plan.

We monitor every site we host around the clock, so we usually know before you do. Urgent problems get worked within the hour during business hours and within four hours overnight - including the February holiday weeks, when a Stratton business can least afford downtime. Routine requests get a same-business-day response.

Because we prove it before you pay. The free 48-hour audit is a working sample: a written review of your current site by the person who would rebuild it. You see real code, real page-speed scores, and published pricing with no budget games. And we are an hour away, not in another time zone.
