WordPress Website Design

Building a website is easy. Building one that drives results is not.

Ron the Web Guy builds WordPress websites for small businesses — fast, clean, and built for local search. No bloated page builders. No flashy animations. No designs that look great but rank nowhere. Every site is built with SEO at the foundation and hosted on Ron’s managed VPS servers.

Web Design Packages

All packages include managed VPS hosting, Wordfence, Cloudflare, monthly updates, backups, PLUS a maintenance and care plan. No contracts — monthly or yearly hosting billing.

Included with every web design package

• Professional design tailored to your business — not a cookie-cutter template
• Mobile-first — tested on phone, tablet, and desktop before launch
• Fast page load speeds — built clean from the start, not patched after the fact
• On-page SEO and technical SEO included on every page
• GA4 and Google Search Console connected and configured
• Schema markup and RankMath SEO plugin — configured, not just installed
• Contact forms and lead capture on every relevant page
• Clear calls to action on every page — visitors know exactly what to do next
• Booking and email tool integration (standard and above)
• Google Maps integration
• Logical navigation and page structure
• You own the website — no lock-in, no proprietary builders

How we approach web design

• No bloated page builders — no Elementor, no Divi. Standard WordPress block editor. Fast, clean, easy to update.
• Custom WordPress websites — designed from scratch to match your brand, service area, and specific conversion goals. Right for businesses that need differentiation or have complex page and functionality requirements.
• Lightweight WordPress websites — carefully selected themes that load fast, rank well, and look professional without the overhead of a full custom build. Right for most small businesses that need a clean, effective site quickly and at a lower price point.
• Built for results, not awards — Fast, clear websites win customers. We measure success in conversions, Search Console clicks, and lead volume. Not animations and gradients. Read why: glowing gradients hurt your website and the case against website animations.
• SEO is built into every website we build — A website that nobody can find is just an expensive business card. Every Ron the Web Guy website includes on-page SEO and technical SEO setup from the start — not as an add-on, not as an afterthought.

We only design websites we host

Every website Ron builds lives on his managed VPS servers. This is not negotiable — and here is why it matters to you.

99% of clients have Ron handle their website updates after launch. That means he is already logging in, making changes, keeping things current. The maintenance and care plan is included with every hosting plan because he is doing that work anyway — you are not paying extra for something that should come standard.

If you are looking for a design-only project to host elsewhere, Ron is not the right fit. If you want one person responsible for building, hosting, securing, and maintaining your site — that is exactly what this is.

We had paid 2 other companies to help us over the years for our advertising both companies were a joke and both we ended up having the worst experience. Now since Ron the Web Guy came on board he has taken countless hours fixing the issues with our website, social networking sites. We are grateful for Ron for taking the time to help us out. If you're looking for a better website boosting your presence give Ron the Web Guy a try. We are more than happy we did. Also he saved us money on monthly payments can't forget that.

Expert professional work, that all began over 20 years ago, when many of us hadn’t a clue as to what a forward slash was. Ron does it correctly the first time and runs with you as you grow. Invest wisely in your project, work with the “Ron the Web Guy”

What happens after the site launches?

Ron handles ongoing updates, security monitoring, backups, and site maintenance. One call, one person. No support tickets.

Can I update the website myself?

Yes — every site is built so you can make changes without technical knowledge. In practice, 99% of clients have Ron handle updates as part of the monthly hosting plan. Either way works.

All of our website design packages include 30+ years of experience in web development and web hosting. If you decide to go elsewhere, please keep us in mind for website janitorial services.
