Astro under the hood. Lighthouse green across the board. A Front Range studio that shows up in person for Boulder kickoffs. We ship sites that load instantly, rank quickly, and turn paid clicks into actual revenue.

  • Lighthouse 94 on every build
  • Reply with an audit in 4 business hours
  • Fixed-scope quote, never an open meter
What we deliver

What Boulder gets when the build ships.

Every site is a piece of revenue infrastructure, not a portfolio piece. Designed for the queries your customers type, the ads you're spending on, and the calls that close.

01

Astro under the hood, fast on principle

Most pages ship zero JavaScript. The page loads before a Boulder customer on coffee-shop wifi notices it's loading. Lighthouse 94 isn't an aspiration — it's the floor we ship from.

02

Engineered to rank locally

Schema markup, citation cleanup, neighborhood-level pages, and Google Business Profile wired into your stack. The unsexy plumbing that actually moves a Boulder business up the local pack.

03

Designed to earn paid clicks

Landing pages that match the ad. Conversion tracking instrumented at build time. Quality-Score copy that doesn't fight the algorithm. Your Google Ads spend stops leaking the day we ship.

04

Phone-first, thumb-tested

Roughly nine in ten visits start on a phone. We design for the thumb before the cursor: legible type, generous tap targets, and forms nobody has to pinch-zoom on the trail.

Not a kickoff over Zoom from another state.
Working with Boulder

Not a kickoff over Zoom from another state.

We work the Front Range. We've shipped sites for outdoor brands tucked into Gunbarrel, biotech teams off 30th & Walnut, and a few of the tradespeople keeping the foothills running. We know which Boulder neighborhoods pull traffic, which industries close on the first call, and what an honest Boulder homepage actually sounds like.

  • We drive up for an in-person kickoff — no Zoom link from out of state
  • Replies on Mountain time — when you're awake, we're awake
  • Photography and copy that name real streets, not Shutterstock
  • Sub-area pages tuned for North Boulder, Gunbarrel, and the CU corridor
How it ships

Kickoff to live in roughly two months.

  1. 01

    Mapping

    A real conversation, not a discovery doc with a price hidden at the end. We figure out who buys, what they search, and which keywords are worth a fight.

  2. 02

    Designing in components

    Figma-first, with pieces built around your offer — not a 40-page proposal someone scrolled past once. Real layouts in week one, not a moodboard in week three.

  3. 03

    Building, then wiring it up

    Astro, Tailwind, and the boring scaffolding that keeps a site online on a Tuesday. GA4, Tag Manager, conversion tracking, and call tracking all live before launch — not as a phase two.

  4. 04

    Launching, then improving

    We ship and keep going. Monthly conversion reviews, A/B tests on the pages doing the work, and content updates that protect the rank you just earned.

"Built for the people building Boulder."

Outdoor brands grinding through R&D in Gunbarrel, biotech founders raising on 30th, climbing gyms with a busy season looming, breweries with a tap list overdue for a refresh. The work keeping Boulder busy — running on a website that finally earns its electricity bill.

The math

A Boulder site that earns its keep.

A new Boulder website usually lands between $8k and $50k. The interesting number isn't the line on the invoice — it's how many leads the thing produces in the first six months. Most local sites cover their build cost in a year. Some never do. Ours reliably do.

Three things compound: speed (a sub-second site converts two to three times harder than one that drags), organic ranking (a tight Astro build outranks a bloated WordPress with a stack of plugins, every time), and paid efficiency (Quality Score climbs the second the landing page stops fighting the ad).

Real reviews. Real clients.

These aren't cherry-picked. Every one of these came from a client who paid us, worked with us, and chose to say this publicly.

Things you'll probably ask

Before you hit send.

  • Typically 60 to 90 days from kickoff. Smaller marketing sites (under ten pages) ship in four to six weeks. Bigger builds with custom integrations land closer to three months. You'll get a milestone-by-milestone timeline before the contract goes anywhere — not a vague window with wiggle room baked in.

  • No — our work is split across Front Range cities and a handful of clients in other states. But local clients get the parts of the engagement that don't replicate over Zoom: in-person kickoffs, on-site photography, and the kind of monthly cadence that's easier when you can grab coffee.

  • Discovery, copywriting, design system, build on Astro, full tracking install (GA4, Tag Manager, Search Console, call tracking), schema markup, hosting recommendation, and a launch readout when it's live. Most clients also opt into a monthly retainer for ongoing content and conversion work.

  • Most builds land between $14k and $45k depending on scope, page count, and integrations. After the first call you'll get a fixed-scope quote on a single page — what's included, what it costs, what you'd own at the end. No 40-slide deck disguising the number.

  • Most of our builds end up on Vercel or Cloudflare — both fast, both cheap, both yours from day one. We can run it on retainer or hand you the keys. Ongoing maintenance (content edits, A/B tests, performance work) sits in a monthly engagement if you want it.

  • Yes, and it's how a lot of clients land here. We migrate URL by URL with redirects in place so SEO doesn't take a hit during the cutover. Most migrations triple the Lighthouse score within the first week of being live.
