Straight answers to the questions people actually ask.
Every page here starts with the answer, then shows the evidence behind it. Plain words, dated facts, under five minutes each. If a technical term appears, its meaning in practice appears in the same breath.
How much does a website cost in Sonoma County?
Market rates run from under a thousand dollars on a do-it-yourself builder to well into five figures with an agency, and the things that drive the difference are knowable before you spend anything.
Web designer vs web developer: which do you need?
A designer decides how your site looks and reads; a developer makes it load fast, stay secure, and work everywhere. Most small-business projects need both skills, sometimes in one person.
Is your brand visible to AI?
Probably not yet: AI assistants answer from facts they can read, most business websites publish none, and you can test yours in sixty seconds for free.
Are you an authority in the eyes of AI?
For professionals whose name is the brand: assistants assemble your reputation from profiles, reviews, and listings, and if those disagree or sit stale, someone else gets recommended.
Is your old website a liability?
It can be: a site can look fine in a browser while the software underneath stopped getting security fixes years ago, and the difference between repair and rebuild is measurable.
