Frequently asked questions about local business websites and getting found online.

The founding offer is $499 for a focused local-business website, which includes your first month of managed AI-visibility operations, followed by $150/month for managed hosting, maintenance, visibility monitoring, and one prioritized improvement cycle each month. The monthly service is part of this managed offer, not an optional hosting add-on. Accepted founding clients keep that monthly price for their first 12 months of continuous service. You may cancel any time, with no notice period; your service runs to the end of the period you have already paid for.

Seven days from a complete brief to launch-ready is our target for a standard-scope site. The schedule includes research, copy, design, build, technical setup, and one consolidated revision round. We do not publish until you approve. Additional pages, integrations, or revision rounds may change the timeline and are scoped in writing before work continues.

No one can guarantee a ranking or AI recommendation, so be wary of anyone who does. Xomer works on the parts that are in your control: technical structure, useful local content, accurate business details, citations, measurement, and ongoing implementation. In our June 4, 2026 check, Perplexity named Total Solar Cleaning when asked about the business by name.

Xomer builds to a set standard scope and uses automation and modern design tools, which keeps the build cost low. The $499 covers research, copy, design, build, technical setup, and deployment. Required $150/month service covers operation and ongoing work. Other providers price and scope their work differently, so compare the actual deliverables rather than the headline price.

One consolidated revision round is included before launch, plus minor updates during the first 30 days. The monthly service includes minor copy and business-detail updates and one prioritized improvement cycle. New pages, redesigns, migrations, custom integrations, and substantial rewrites are quoted separately before work begins.

Start with the free written audit. If a new build is recommended, you can review a free homepage preview before paying. We confirm the build scope and required recurring-service terms in writing, then send a secure Stripe payment link. The $499 build fee is collected in full at checkout and includes your first month of managed service. Paid build work begins within one business day of payment. After that included month, required managed service costs $150/month while Xomer operates the site. Refunds and cancellation follow Sections 5 and 16 of our Terms of Service.

Xomer includes one consolidated revision round before launch. You review the standard-scope site and provide one set of feedback, which Xomer addresses before launch. Minor copy and business-detail updates are included during the first 30 days and in the monthly service. New pages, redesigns, custom work, and substantial rewrites are scoped separately.

Xomer is designed for US local service businesses that want a managed website and ongoing measurement and improvement. Potential categories include plumbers, electricians, HVAC contractors, landscapers, dentists, salons, auto repair, restaurants, and law firms. Fit still depends on scope, platform, service area, and implementation needs. E-commerce stores, custom booking systems, and web applications fall outside the standard offer.

Yes. We first assess whether the existing site is practical to improve. If Xomer can manage it safely, we scope the migration and ongoing service. If your developer must implement the work, we can quote a one-time assessment or limited advisory engagement. Price and support depend on the platform, access, and implementation responsibility.

No. Xomer researches your business, writes the copy, and uses stock or AI imagery if you do not have photos. If you do have photos, even better. The intake brief takes about ten minutes. You describe your business, customers, and service area. Xomer handles the rest.

Email Xomer with the requested change. Minor copy and business-detail updates are included in the monthly service. Larger additions or redesigns are scoped separately. Once the $499 build fee is paid, you own the completed custom copy, design and code, regardless of any monthly balance. Third-party materials keep their own licences.

The $150/month managed service includes hosting, technical maintenance, lead-form operation, monitoring across major search and AI engines, a plain-English report, minor copy and business-detail updates, and one prioritized optimization cycle each month. Minor updates and the prioritized cycle share up to two hours of implementation work per billing period. It does not include unlimited new pages, redesigns, migrations, custom integrations, or unlimited revisions. Those are scoped separately. Cancel any time, with no notice period.

Managed hosting is included while the monthly service is active. You own your domain. When you cancel, we send you a copy of the site as it stands that day, at no charge, and we send the completed package again when your service ends. That link works for 30 days; after that, email us and we will send it again at no charge for 24 months after your service ends. Another provider may need to adapt and host the files. Domain, third-party subscription, migration, and new-provider costs are not included.

Once the $499 build fee is paid, you own the completed custom copy, design and code, regardless of any monthly balance. Third-party materials keep their own licences. If you cancel, we send you a copy of the site at no charge that day, and again when your service ends, under the handoff terms above.

Not necessarily. Xomer is for local service businesses that want a managed website and ongoing measurement and improvement. It is not designed for e-commerce stores, custom booking systems, or web applications. If local discovery is not important to your business, the service may not be a good fit.

Paid ads, lead platforms, and managed organic visibility have different cost structures. Ads can produce traffic quickly but stop when the budget stops. A website is an owned asset after payment, but it still needs hosting, maintenance, measurement, and improvement. Each month Xomer reports what it measured, so you can compare channels over time.

Click "Get Free Audit" anywhere on the site, tell Xomer about your business, and we will usually be in touch by the next business day. The audit is free and there is no commitment.
