Small business websitesCovington, Mandeville & the Northshore

A website for your small business that you do not have to babysit.

Most small business owners do not want a website project. They want the phone to ring and the site to stay out of the way. GatorByte builds a fast custom site, then hosts it, watches it, and makes your small changes for you, so the website is one less thing on your list.

Who it is for

  • Owner-operated businesses: contractors, restaurants, shops, and service companies
  • Businesses with no website yet, or one that was set up years ago and left alone
  • Owners who would rather send a text about new hours than log in to a page builder
  • Businesses that mostly get customers by phone and need that number easy to tap

What you get

  • A custom 1-3 page site that says what you do, where you work, and how to reach you
  • Click-to-call and one contact or quote form
  • Local SEO foundations and Google Business Profile setup help
  • Managed hosting, SSL, 24/7 uptime monitoring, and backups
  • Small text and image updates handled for you on the care plan
  • A monthly report on uptime, speed, and inquiries

How it works

Small business websites, step by step.

01

Call

A short call about your business, your customers, and the questions they ask before they hire you.

02

Gather

You send what you have: logo, photos, services, and service area. We help fill the gaps.

03

Build

We design and build the site, you review it, and we make the adjustments.

04

Hand off the worry

The site goes live on your domain, and from then on hosting, monitoring, and small updates are ours to handle.

Questions

Small business websites: common questions.

How many pages does a small business need?

Many small businesses do well with 1-3 focused pages: what you do, where you work, and how to reach you. If you offer several distinct services or work in many towns, separate pages for each can help, and extra pages are quoted up front.

What do I need to provide?

Your services, service area, contact details, and any logo or photos you already have, plus prompt feedback during the build. If you need photos or a logo, those are available as add-ons.

Can I update the site myself?

You do not have to. Small text and image changes, like new hours or a new photo, are included in the $100/month care plan; you send the change and we make it. If you change things often, like a menu or event calendar, we can build an admin panel so you can edit it yourself.

What does the $100 a month cover?

Managed hosting on Netlify, an SSL certificate, security monitoring and updates, 24/7 uptime monitoring, backup management, small text and image updates, technical support, and a monthly report on uptime, speed, and inquiries.

Am I locked into a contract?

Under our terms, the monthly care plan can be cancelled with 30 days written notice. Partial months are not pro-rated.
