We're a freight forwarder. Is local SEO relevant?+
Only marginally. Your customers are importers, exporters and shippers who could be anywhere — they search for a service and a port, not for a Savannah business. What matters for you is content targeting those national terms, clear capability and service detail, and a portal that gives customers status without phoning you. That's a different project from local SEO and we'd scope it that way.
How do I win direct bookings for tours or a hotel?+
A booking path faster and simpler than the platform's, live availability, and a concrete reason to book direct — usually a better rate, since you're saving the commission. Add local SEO for the specific searches visitors run and your own email list of past guests. It won't eliminate platform dependence, and anyone promising that is overselling, but the direct share moves meaningfully.
Should I market to visitors or locals?+
Whichever you actually serve, with separate pages if it's both. Savannah's small size makes owners assume one page covers everything, but a visitor searching from a Historic District hotel and a Pooler resident want different things at different prices. Separate landing paths convert far better than a compromise page.
Are you actually based in Savannah?+
No — and we say so on the page rather than renting a virtual office address to imply otherwise. Our team is in Hyderabad and Warangal, India, and we work with Savannah businesses remotely: video calls, WhatsApp, and a live preview link you can open at any point during the build. What is genuinely local is the work itself — your Google Business Profile, the Savannah search terms we target, the competitors we benchmark you against, and the schema that tells Google exactly which area you serve.
How do I pay you from GA?+
Wire or ACH, Zelle, credit card through Stripe, PayPal or Wise — invoiced in USD, with a proper invoice for your accountant. Payment is milestone-based: 40% to begin, the remainder as you approve deliverables. There is no retainer and no minimum contract on the build work.
What are your hours compared to Savannah?+
India runs 9.5 to 13.5 hours ahead depending on your time zone and the season, which works in your favour more than against it: work happens while you sleep, and you review it in the morning. Calls are scheduled for your evening, which is our morning. Anything urgent gets a WhatsApp reply the same day.
What if the project goes wrong?+
You own the code, the domain, the hosting account and every asset from the first day — not at handover, from the beginning. If you stop working with us, everything is already yours and there is nothing to extract. The price is agreed in writing before work starts. Websites start at $799.
