See it before you buy it
Before you commit to anything, we design three concepts for your site, each with its own layout, positioning and colors. You see exactly what you are getting, and you can mix and match the parts you like best.
Your website is your digital storefront, and people judge the quality of a business by the quality of its site. LocalForge exists to give local businesses a website as good as the work they do.
I kept seeing the same story. A business owner talks to a developer, gets promised all kinds of things, pays thousands of dollars, and ends up with a templated site that looks like everyone else’s. Then they are stuck with it.
I started LocalForge to deliver quality websites at a cost a local business can afford, so every business can show what actually makes it different.
Before you commit to anything, we design three concepts for your site, each with its own layout, positioning and colors. You see exactly what you are getting, and you can mix and match the parts you like best.
Your site is designed and built around your business, not pulled off a template rack, so it shows what makes you different instead of looking like everyone else.
We can write your copy, or work from yours. You can guide the design and the build as closely as you like, or leave it with us. However you want to work is how we want to work.
A fixed price, agreed before work starts, at a level that makes sense for a local business. No surprise invoices, and no paying thousands to find out what you got.


After the sale, you are not passed off to someone else to build your site, or to someone else again once it launches.
The person you speak to first is the person you will always speak to, from the first concept to launch day and for as long as you are with LocalForge. And whatever you want your site to do, we can build it.

Start a projectYou see your website before you pay for it. Here is how it works.
Fifteen minutes by phone or email about your business, your customers and what the site needs to do. No long questionnaire.
We design three homepage concepts for you, each with its own layout, positioning and colors. They cost you nothing, and there is no obligation.
Choose the direction that feels most like your business, or take the parts you like from each. We refine it with you until it is right.
Only then do we build the full site, typically with a first draft inside a week, and launch it on your own domain when you are happy.
