How customers find you

The short trip from a search to your phone

Most Gastonia businesses used to live on word of mouth. Plenty still do. But the city added thousands of people in ten years, and those newcomers don't have anyone to ask. They ask Google. Here's what happens next, and where a website either earns the call or loses it.

They search from the truck, the couch or the break room

Something breaks or a job comes up. They type the service and "Gastonia" into a phone, and they're not scrolling far.

Google shows a map and a handful of names

The three pins come mostly from Google Business Profiles. Listings that are complete and match the website get a better shot at those spots.

They tap a result and give it about five seconds

If the page is slow, generic or hides the phone number, they hit back. A page about their exact problem, with reviews close by, keeps them reading.

They call, or they fill out the form

The number stays in reach the whole way down the page and the quote form asks only what's needed. That call is what the website is for.

The city we're building for

A mill town that keeps finding new work

Gastonia is the seat of Gaston County and one of the largest cities in the Charlotte region. It was incorporated in 1877 and named for William Gaston, the North Carolina judge and congressman. The census counted 71,741 people here in 2010 and 80,411 in 2020.

The textile mills that built the city are still part of its story. The old Loray Mill has been turned into loft apartments, and Parkdale, one of the world's biggest makers of spun yarn, still runs its business from here. These days the list of employers also includes truck, filter and aerospace manufacturers, and the hospital at CaroMont Health.

  • About 21 miles west of Charlotte, with I-85 running straight through town
  • CaroMont Health Park in the FUSE District brings baseball crowds downtown
  • Crowders Mountain State Park sits just west of the city

Questions

Before you get in touch

Where are you based?

Our office is in Mooresville, in Iredell County. We're not going to pretend otherwise. Most of the work happens by phone, email and screen share, and Roger will drive down to Gastonia when meeting in person makes sense.

How fast can a new site be live?

A small site usually goes live about a week after we start, and bigger ones take two or three weeks. What sets the pace is how quickly we get your photos and your feedback.

Who owns the website when it's done?

You do. The domain, the words and the finished pages are yours. We host the site so it stays fast, backed up and secure.

Is this WordPress?

No. Every page is written by hand in plain code, with no plugins to update and no admin screen for hackers to guess at. It's a big part of why the sites load so quickly on a phone.

Want a second opinion on your website?

Send us the address. Roger will pull it up on his phone the way a Gastonia customer would, check how it shows up on Google, and email you what he'd fix first. Free, and no sales call unless you ask for one.
