A preschool teacher now runs a subscription curriculum business from a studio we built: she builds each week, emails members and bills them herself.

Growth: SEO & Google Ads

People in your area are searching for exactly what you do, and some of them find a competitor first.

A great site that nobody finds is a brochure in a drawer. We run the ongoing work that gets you found and gets the phone ringing locally, and nationally when that is the ambition.

Local SEO: map pack, reviews, city rankings
National SEO campaigns for bigger markets
Google Ads: built, managed, and tuned monthly
Landing pages designed to convert the clicks you pay for

Long-term partnership

A website nobody looks after slowly falls behind, and a simple change shouldn’t take a week of emails.

Launch is the start, not the finish. Your site is hosted, watched, and improved for as long as we work together, and when you call with an idea, the person who built it answers.

Fast, secure hosting on modern infrastructure
Uptime checks every 15 minutes, around the clock
Updates and changes handled same-week, usually same-day
Performance and SEO tuned as your business grows
A direct line to Jaxon (no ticket queues, ever)

Compare care plans Or ask us anything

Care starts at $250 a month. Every plan is month to month with no contracts, and your site, domain and content are always yours.

We run our company on software we built.

Behind Thornwood is our own CRM and the client portal, both designed and built in house. Every lead, build, invoice and request runs through them, and every client logs in to see their site, their inquiries and what we handled this month. Web-design agencies talk about automation. We run on it, and the same building blocks become the systems we build for you.

The portal every client gets

One login for everything about your website, so you never have to email anyone to find out how it’s doing or what you’re paying for.

Client portal home for a demo bakery: a large heading reads It’s online, checked 4 minutes ago with no outages since launch, beside 14 pages passing, a phone speed score of 98, 37 spam messages stopped, and a phone preview of the bakery’s website — **Is the site working? Open the portal and it tells you.**Checked minutes ago, with the month’s numbers beside it.

Client portal inquiries page: 5 inquiries from the website in September, filter buttons for unread, replied and booked, and a list of customer messages, each with a status menu set to New, Replied or Booked — **Every lead in one inbox, with a status you set.**If an email ever lands in spam, the inquiry is still here.

Client portal Behind the scenes page for September: 2,880 checks on the site, every 15 minutes with 0 outages, 37 spam submissions stopped and 14 pages audited, all passing — **What your plan did this month, in plain numbers.**Every check we ran and every spam message we stopped, without you having to ask.

Client portal requests page asking What do you need?, with five choices: change some words, swap a photo, add a page or section, something looks broken, or something else, next to a list of past requests marked Received or Completed — **Need a change? Pick what you need and follow it to done.**It goes straight to the people building your site, and you can see where it stands.

The CRM we run the studio on

Leads, builds, invoices and client requests in one place, so nothing depends on someone remembering it. It’s the kind of system we build for businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets and sticky notes.

Thornwood CRM overview with demo data: 5 things need you today, each a lead, client request or build waiting on us with an Open button, next to $21,480 collected in October so far with a bar for each month of the year — **Each morning starts with what needs us today.**New leads and client requests waiting on our reply sit at the top, so nothing waits.

Thornwood CRM leads page with demo data: a new inquiry from an orchard showing what the owner wrote, their budget, status buttons from New to Won, and buttons to open the lead, email or call — **Every inquiry arrives with what they wrote and how they found us.**So the first reply, within one business day, is about their business.

Thornwood CRM production board with demo data: 5 builds in production, 2 on us and 3 waiting on clients, above two build cards showing their step, target launch date, who they are waiting on and the next step — **Every build on one board.**The step it’s on, the target launch date and whose court the ball is in, in the same words the client sees in their portal.

What happens after you reach out

Talk

We reply within one business day. Then a real conversation about your business: what is working, what is manual, what growth looks like. You leave the 15-minute call with a real number, not a “starting at.” No pitch deck, no pressure.

Design first

You see the direction (the actual homepage design) and approve it before the full build. No surprises fifteen pages deep.

Build & launch

Custom-built, tested on real phones, wired for analytics and search. We handle the domain, the DNS, and the go-live. Most sites are live in three to six weeks.

Run & grow

Monitoring, updates, performance, and a monthly eye on the data, with automation ideas brought to you, not sold to you.

Questions owners actually ask.

Cost, timing, ownership and what happens after launch, answered straight. Anything else, ask us directly.

Ask your own question Or call (801) 380-6854

How much does a website cost?

Simple one-page sites and landing pages start at $1,500. Full custom websites start at $2,500+ depending on pages, features, and the scope of the project, and most land between $2,500 and $12,000. AI and automation work is scoped separately. You get an exact number after a short call. No surprises, no hourly meter. See pricing.

How long does it take?

Most sites launch in a few weeks, not months. You approve the design direction early, so the build moves fast, and rush timelines are usually possible if you have a hard date.

Do I own my website?

Yes. Your domain and your content are always yours, and once the build is paid in full, the site is yours too: ask and we’ll hand you a copy of the code. No proprietary builder, no lock-in. Hosting runs on our infrastructure as part of your plan, and if we ever part ways, you take your site with you.

Am I locked into a contract?

No. Every plan is month to month with no contracts. Upgrade when you’re pushing for growth, step down when things are steady, or cancel any month.

How will I know what you’re doing for me each month?

Every client gets a portal: your site’s status, your inquiries, your requests and your invoices in one login. Care plan clients also get a Behind the scenes page with what we checked and handled that month, so you never have to wonder what the plan pays for.

What can AI automation actually do for a small business?

The practical stuff: answering new leads in seconds, following up with quotes automatically, requesting reviews after a job, keeping your calendar and invoices in sync. We look at what eats your week and automate the parts that repeat.

Do you do SEO?

Yes, every site ships with on-page SEO, analytics, and Search Console from day one, and we run ongoing local and national SEO campaigns plus Google Ads for clients who want the phone ringing. We focus on what actually moves rankings: structure, speed, content, and consistency.

What happens after launch?

Your site is hosted, monitored every 15 minutes, and kept current. Need a change? Call or text Jaxon directly. Most updates happen same-week, many same-day.
