Great for home-based and service-area businesses
If you run your business from home or travel to customers, you shouldn't publish your home address, and Google's own guidelines say service-area businesses should hide it. Your website then has to do the work of showing where you serve and why people should trust you.
We build sites for service-area businesses that make the coverage area obvious, show real work and real credentials, and give people an easy way to request a quote, all without exposing your home address.

Pleasant Hill web design FAQ
I run my business from home in Pleasant Hill. Can I still rank locally?
Yes. Set up your Google Business Profile as a service-area business with your address hidden and your service cities listed, and back it up with a clear website.
Will my home address show up on my website?
Only if you want it to. For service-area businesses we usually list the cities you serve and a phone number or form instead.
Is a website really worth it for a one-person business?
If even a couple of extra jobs a year come from it, a small, well-built site usually pays for itself. We'll be honest if we think you don't need one yet.
