Questions people ask before getting started.

Straight answers on cost, timelines, and how the work gets done. Don't see yours? Just ask.

How much does a website cost? +
Website builds are normally $1,000, a one-time fee, but right now there's a limited-time special at $499. Most local business and practice sites are finished in two to three weeks. Ongoing local visibility plans start at $200 a month. See full services & pricing.
Is the $499 website price really one-time? +
Yes. The $499 build is a one-time project fee, not a subscription, and it includes Google Business Profile setup. It's a limited-time offer in place of the regular $1,000 rate, so it won't last forever.
What is local SEO, and do I need it? +
Local SEO is the work that gets your business to show up when someone nearby searches for what you offer, including Google's local map results. If customers in your area use Google to find businesses like yours, it's usually the highest-return marketing you can do. Here's more on how local SEO works.
Do you set up my Google Business Profile? +
Yes. Every website build includes Google Business Profile setup so you appear on Google Maps and in local results, or a full optimization if you already have a profile.
What areas do you serve? +
I'm based in Central Texas and work with practices and small businesses in Waco, Temple, Killeen, and Bryan/College Station. See all areas served.
Who actually does the work? +
You work directly with me, Josh Tharp. RankCTX is a one-person studio, so there's no call center and no account hand-offs. I have six years in media management and over 400,000 impressions in the last year. More about me.
Am I locked into a contract? +
No. The website build is a one-time project, and the monthly visibility plans are month-to-month, so you can cancel anytime.
