Straight Talk
Most Small-Business Websites Are Brochures. Yours Might Be One.
It looks fine. It has your logo, your services, a contact form. And it does almost nothing, because it describes you instead of answering the questions your customers are actually asking.
Here's what's changed: your next customer may never see your website in a list of search results at all. They're asking ChatGPT or Google's AI who to hire, and the AI is reading websites to decide whose name to say. A brochure gives it nothing to work with. A site built from your customers' real questions gives it everything.
That's the difference between a website that sits there and a website that sells.
Three Things Nobody Else Puts On One Page
Built to Be Found. Built to Convert. Priced in Plain Sight.
GEO-Ready From Day One
Every site we build is structured to be read, understood, and quoted by AI: ChatGPT, Gemini, Google's AI Overviews. Question-based pages, clean schema markup, content drawn from what your customers actually ask. Most agencies will sell you this as an add-on in a year or two. It's how we build, now.
Designed to Turn Visitors Into Calls
Not a design award entry. Every layout decision, from where the phone number sits to what a visitor sees in the first five seconds, exists to move a real person toward contacting you. Fast, mobile-first, and wired to analytics that track leads, not just visits.
AI-Powered Production. Senior-Led Decisions.
We use AI to build faster than traditional agencies. That's why a custom site costs $1,897 to $4,797 here and $10,000+ elsewhere. What AI doesn't do is decide. Your strategy, structure, copy direction, and design calls come from the same senior people you met on your first call.
What Every Build Includes
Standard on Every Site. No Upsell Menu.
- Custom design: your brand, not a template with your logo dropped in
- Mobile-first build, fast load times
- On-page SEO + schema markup, the technical layer of GEO
- Copy built from a founder interview: your words, professionally written
- Google Business Profile connection and local-search foundations
- Analytics wired to what matters: calls, forms, bookings, not vanity traffic
- Training so your team can make basic updates without calling us
- Full ownership. Domain, hosting account, site files, content, all in your name.
The Whole Process, Up Front
Live in 7 to 30 Days. Here's How.
01
Strategy & Plan
A working session on your goals, your customers, and what the site needs to do. You get a fixed scope and a fixed price before anything is built.
02
Content First
We interview you and write the pages from that conversation, because the site's job is to answer your customers' questions, and the answers live in your head, not a template.
03
Design & Build
Custom design, built and reviewed with you. This is where AI-powered production earns the timeline: what takes traditional shops six weeks takes us days.
04
Launch & Handoff
Live site, analytics running, training done, everything in your name. Simple sites land near 7 days; full custom builds near 30.

Website Pricing
What a Website Costs Here. In Writing.
Two ways to pay, same site either way: a flat project price, or a monthly plan that spreads the cost and bundles hosting, maintenance, and updates while you're on it.
Foundation Website
$1,897 flat
or $200/month with hosting & care included
You need a professional, GEO-ready home base that makes you findable and credible, without a big project.
Everything in Standard on Every Site.
7-12 PAGES
Service Business Website
$2,797 flat
or $300/month with hosting & care included
Established service businesses and practices that need room for service pages, locations, and the question-answering content AI engines read.
Full Custom WordPress
$4,797 flat
or $500/month with hosting & care included
Established businesses that need high-level function and real interaction with clients: booking, portals, integrations, e-commerce-level capability. Fully custom WordPress build.
The straight math
Yes, the monthly plan costs more over a year than the flat price, about $500 more on the Foundation tier. That difference isn't interest or fine print. It's the hosting, maintenance, security, and updates that are bundled in while you're on the plan. If you'd rather handle those yourself, pay flat and it's yours outright.
Every price above is the whole price. No setup fees, no surprise line items. If your project needs something these tiers don't cover, we'll tell you what it costs before we start.

The Compounding Part
The Site Gets You Ready. The Content Gets You Recommended.
A GEO-ready website is the foundation, but AI engines recommend businesses that keep answering questions, month after month. That's what our monthly visibility packages do: articles, video, and updates built from a monthly interview with you, published on the site we just built. Most clients pair a build with a monthly package from day one. You don't have to. But the businesses getting named in AI answers are the ones that do.
See monthly GEO pricingThe Questions People Actually Ask
Do I own the website?
Yes. Domain, hosting account, files, content, all registered in your name. On the flat price it's yours at launch. Nothing is held hostage if we part ways.
Why are your prices so much lower than the $10K quotes I've gotten?
AI-powered production. We build in days what traditional agencies build in weeks, and we pass that efficiency through instead of pocketing it. The strategy, design decisions, and copy direction are senior humans. The production speed is where AI earns its keep.
Will my site look AI-generated or templated?
No, and that concern is exactly right, because the internet is filling with sites that do. Every SparkStory build starts with your brand and your customers' questions, is custom-designed, and is reviewed by our creative director before you ever see it. AI speeds our hands; it doesn't pick the design.
How is a 7 to 30 day timeline possible?
Fixed scope agreed up front, content written from one focused interview instead of months of email tag, and AI-accelerated production with senior review. The 30-day end is full custom builds; simple sites land near 7.
What is a GEO-ready website?
A site structured so AI systems like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google's AI can read it, understand what you do and where, and cite you when someone asks for a recommendation. Concretely: question-based pages, schema markup, clear service and location structure, and content that answers real customer questions.
Do you redesign existing sites, or only build new ones?
Both. If your current site has good bones, a redesign may cost less than the tiers above. We'll tell you which you actually need on the call, including if the answer is keep your site, fix three things.
Do I have to write anything?
No. We interview you, 45 focused minutes, and write the site from that. You approve everything before it ships.
We're Not the Right Fit If...
- You want the cheapest possible site. There are $500 template shops and DIY builders. They produce something. It won't get you found, and it won't get you chosen.
- You want a site but no opinion. We'll tell you when a page you want hurts you, and when the site you have only needs three fixes instead of a rebuild.
- You need us to say things that aren't true. Claims we can't support don't go on sites we build. Yours included.
