Your competitors with worse service are stealing your customers. And it’s happening because they show up on Google and you don’t.

You know you’re better at what you do. You know your quality beats theirs. But when someone pulls out their phone and searches for your type of business, they find your competitors instead. Those customers never even know you exist.

That’s not a marketing problem. That’s a business survival problem.

78% of mobile searches for local businesses lead to a purchase within 24 hours. If you’re not showing up in those searches, you’re watching your competitors cash in on customers who should be yours.

Why Your Current Website Is Costing You Money

Most small business owners make one of three mistakes:

Mistake #1: No website at all. You’re relying on word-of-mouth and hoping customers find you. Meanwhile, people are googling your service right now and calling whoever shows up first.

Mistake #2: A DIY website that looks like 2005. You built something on Wix or got your nephew to throw together a WordPress site. It loads slowly, looks unprofessional on phones, and Google ignores it completely.

Mistake #3: Paying an agency you don’t understand. You’re locked into some $200/month contract with a company that sends you reports full of meaningless numbers. Your phone isn’t ringing more. Your bookings haven’t increased. But they keep billing you anyway.

Here’s what all three have in common: they’re not bringing in new customers.

Let’s do the math. What’s your average job worth? $300? $800? $2,500? Now imagine you’re missing just two bookings per week because people can’t find you online. That’s 100+ jobs per year you’re handing straight to competitors.

At an average job value of $500, that’s $50,000+ in revenue walking past you every year. Not lost revenue you had and gave up. Revenue you never even got a chance at.

What Actually Makes a Website Worth Having

You don’t need a website to win awards. You need a website that makes your phone ring.

DigCreative builds websites for one reason: to get you more customers.

Here’s what that means in practice:

Fast-loading pages that Google rewards with higher rankings
Mobile-first design because that’s where your customers are searching
Clear calls-to-action that turn visitors into phone calls
Local SEO built in from day one so you show up for nearby searches
Content written to convert browsers into buyers

Starting at $549 setup with monthly plans that include everything—hosting, updates, security, support. No technical headaches. No surprise bills.

And here’s the part that matters most: no lock-in contracts. We keep clients by doing good work, not by trapping them in legal agreements.

Get Found When Customers Are Actually Searching

Someone in your area just searched for what you do. They saw three businesses at the top of Google. Three chances to win that customer. Were you one of them?

If not, someone else just got your phone call.

Local SEO puts you in front of customers at the exact moment they’re ready to buy. Not cold leads. Not tire-kickers. People with money in hand searching for your exact service.

What makes Local SEO different from regular SEO:

Targets people physically near your business who can actually use your service
Gets you into the Google Map Pack (those three listings at the top)
Brings in ready-to-buy customers, not random website traffic
Builds your reputation through reviews and local authority

Dr. Schneider runs a specialized reproductive veterinary practice in Brisbane. Before we built and optimized his website, he had no online presence at all. Now? He’s getting 15+ new high-value clients every month through contact form submissions and phone calls. That’s the difference between being invisible and being the obvious choice when people search.

Your Google Business Profile Is a Goldmine You’re Probably Wasting

Here’s something most business owners don’t realize: your Google Business Profile gets more views than your website.

Think about it. When someone searches for your type of business, they see your Google profile before they ever click through to your site. The photo. The reviews. The star rating. The services you offer. All of that shows up immediately in search results.

And most businesses completely waste it.

They set it up years ago, never update it, have photos from 2019, and wonder why competitors with worse reviews get more calls.

46% of all Google searches have local intent. That means nearly half the people searching are looking for a business near them. Your Google Business Profile is how they find you.

Our optimization gets you showing up:

Correct category selection so Google shows you for the right searches
Keyword-rich service descriptions that match what customers actually type
Professional photos that make people want to click
Regular posts that keep your profile fresh and active
Review strategy that builds social proof and trust

One-time Google Business Profile optimization for $479. No monthly fees. Just instant improvement in how you show up.

Custom Applications When Off-The-Shelf Doesn’t Cut It

Some businesses need more than a standard website. They need tools that solve specific problems.

Maybe your customers need to book appointments online but those generic booking systems don’t fit your workflow. Maybe you want quote requests to come through your website but need custom fields. Maybe you’re manually doing something that could be automated.

That’s where custom application development makes sense.

We build:

Booking systems designed around your actual business process
Quote calculators that pre-qualify leads before they reach you
Client portals where customers track project progress
Appointment scheduling that syncs with your calendar
Custom forms that capture exactly the information you need

This isn’t about fancy technology for its own sake. It’s about removing friction between customers and doing business with you.

Stop doing manually what technology can handle.

Software That Eliminates Busywork

You didn’t start a business to spend 15 hours a week on admin tasks.

But that’s what happens when you’re using five different systems that don’t talk to each other, manually entering data twice, and dealing with software that creates more problems than it solves.

Custom software development solves the problems that generic software can’t.

We build solutions for:

Inventory tracking that updates across your website and accounting system
Job management for service businesses that need to track work in progress
Automated invoicing that sends itself and follows up on overdue payments
CRM systems that actually fit how your business works
Integration between platforms so data flows automatically

Take SnapBox, a custom software solution we built for a school photography business. The owner was drowning in administrative work—manually processing orders, managing barcodes, matching photos to students, tracking payments. SnapBox automated the entire workflow with barcode generation, photo ingestion, fuzzy logic verification against school data, and web-based order processing. The result? Hundreds of hours saved every year that can now go into actually growing the business.

What’s wasting your time that we could automate?

Website Maintenance That Actually Maintains Your Website

Here’s the reality of most web design companies: they build your site, collect payment, and you never hear from them again.

Until something breaks. Then suddenly it’s $180/hour to fix it, with a three-week wait time.

Or worse—you’re stuck with a monthly maintenance plan where you have no idea what they’re actually maintaining. They send you reports with technical jargon. Your site doesn’t load any faster. Nothing seems different. But the $150 monthly charge keeps hitting your card.

DigCreative’s maintenance plans actually maintain your website.

What you get every month:

Security updates applied within 24 hours of release
Regular backups so you never lose data
Performance monitoring and speed optimization
Plugin and theme updates
Content changes when you need them (swap a photo, update text, add a service)
Real human email support, not a ticket system

Plans from $55/month. Cancel with 30 days’ notice. No long-term contracts. No questions asked.

On-Page SEO That Tells Google Who You Are and Where You Serve

Google isn’t psychic. If your website doesn’t clearly tell Google what you do and where you do it, you won’t rank for anything.

Most business websites fail at this basic level. They use vague language like “providing quality service to the community.” Google has no idea what that means.

On-page SEO makes your website crystal clear to Google:

Title tags and headers that include exactly what people search for
Location mentions throughout your content (not keyword stuffing, natural references)
Fast page speed because Google penalizes slow sites in rankings
Mobile optimization because Google prioritizes mobile-friendly sites
Structured data markup that helps Google understand your business type
Internal linking that shows Google which pages matter most

Proper on-page optimization is what took Dr. Schneider’s reproductive veterinary practice from completely invisible online to a lead-generating machine. When specialists search for reproductive vet services in Brisbane, his website shows up—and converts those searches into paying clients.

Want to show up when people search for your service? On-page SEO is where it starts.

Digital Marketing That Focuses on Revenue, Not Vanity Metrics

“You got 2,000 impressions last month!”

Great. How many paid customers did those impressions bring in?

Most marketing agencies talk about reach, engagement, brand awareness—metrics that sound impressive but don’t pay your bills.

DigCreative focuses on metrics that matter: calls, bookings, sales.

Our digital marketing services:

Google Ads targeted to people searching for your exact service
Facebook and Instagram ads aimed at your ideal customer in your service area
Email campaigns that bring past customers back
Content marketing that establishes you as the local expert
Retargeting for people who visited your site but didn’t convert

Stop paying for clicks. Start paying for customers.

Citation Management That Google Uses to Verify You’re Real

Google doesn’t just trust what your website says. It checks whether your business exists consistently across the internet.

If your business name, address, and phone number are different on True Local, Yellow Pages, your Facebook page, and your website, Google sees that as a red flag. You look unreliable. Your rankings suffer.

Citation management fixes this problem:

We find every place your business is listed online (you’d be surprised)
Correct any inconsistencies in name, address, phone, website
Add your business to relevant directories you’re missing from
Optimize each listing with the right categories and descriptions
Build authority signals Google uses to rank you higher

Most businesses have listing problems they don’t even know about. An old address from two locations ago. A phone number that’s no longer in service. A business name spelled three different ways.

We clean it all up and make sure Google sees one consistent, trustworthy business.
