What Saltwater Studio does
Websites engineered for Google, AI search, and the people in between.
Saltwater Studio builds custom websites for service businesses and the search presence that makes them found — web design, SEO, answer-engine and generative-engine optimization, Google Business Profile, and social content. Everything is quote-based; tell us about the business and we'll scope it honestly.

Common questions
What does Saltwater Studio build?
Saltwater Studio builds custom websites for service businesses plus the search presence that makes them found — web design, SEO, AI search (AEO/GEO), Google Business Profile, and social content. Every site is custom Next.js, not a template, and pricing is quote-based.
How do I get a price?
Pricing is quote-based because a five-page local site and a full presence program aren't the same job. Tell us about the business on a short strategy call or the quote form, and most projects are scoped within a day.
Do you work with businesses outside the Gulf Coast?
Yes. Saltwater Studio works with service businesses across the United States; the Gulf Coast from Gulf Shores, Alabama to Miami, Florida is home base, not a limit.
