04 / The Method
Right the first time.
Competitors skip steps 2 and 4. That's why their clients rebuild in two years.
Intake & Strategy
A 45-minute call to understand your business, your customers, and what winning looks like. We leave with a defined scope, target phrases, and the entity facts that will anchor every page.
Schema & Tracking — First
Before a line of visible code is written, we configure GA4, GTM, and the schema stack. Competitors skip this step. We don't — which is why you're not rebuilding in two years.
Design & Build
Custom Next.js build, mobile-first, accessibility built in. Every section is a component; every component is a performance decision. No templates, no theme-shop shortcuts.
Launch & Index
Pre-launch SEO audit, GSC and Bing Webmaster submission, IndexNow ping on deploy. We don't call it done until the search engines know it's live.
Grow
Monthly reporting, content that feeds the entity, and the data to know what's working. The site is an asset — we treat it like one.
05 / Why Saltwater
Depth, by design.
Schema & entity built in
Not added at the end. Every page ships with structured data validated on Rich Results Test. Your site tells Google exactly what you do, for whom, and where.
You own everything
Domain, hosting, analytics, every account — in your name, under your email, with your billing. Saltwater does the work; you hold the keys.
One canonical fact set
Your name, location, services, and entity facts are the same on the site, in schema, in llms.txt, and on every profile. No contradictions for Google to ignore.
No template you’ll outgrow
Custom Next.js. Not Wix, not Squarespace, not a WordPress theme with a dozen plugins. Built for performance, built to last, built to rank.
06 / The Studio
Travis, founder.
Saltwater Studio is a web design studio founded in 2025 by Travis on the Gulf Coast of Florida. The studio builds websites and search presence for service businesses across the United States — the kind of foundation that doesn't need to be rebuilt in two years.
The work is schema-first, tracking-first, and specific: structured data validated before launch, analytics live from day one, and one canonical fact set that Google and AI search can quote. Most competitors skip those steps. Saltwater doesn't.
Remote, nationwide, out of the Florida Panhandle. Every engagement is personal — no account managers, no handoffs.
Depth, by design.
Ready to build something that lasts?
One strategy call. No pressure. You leave with a clear picture of what the site needs — and what it'll take to rank.
