Every business already knows their leads are dying. They just don't know where in the funnel they're losing them — or what to do about it. We do.

The proof — Buffalo, NY

18 days. 116 pages. Page 1 for 9 of 10 keywords. Beating Safelite.

We built Buffalo Windshield a new site on May 23, 2026. By June 10 — 18 days later — it was ranking #1 organic for "windshield chip repair buffalo" and "windshield crack repair buffalo," #2 organic for "windshield repair buffalo ny" (above Safelite, Glass America, and Auto Glass Now — national chains with massive SEO budgets), and Page 1 for 9 of 10 commercial keywords we targeted.

Sonny — the owner — now gets leads in his Gmail directly from the form on his site. He's not thinking about SEO anymore.

Questions we get

The 5 things people ask before they book.

How long until I rank on Page 1?
Sonny in Buffalo was Page 1 in under 3 weeks. Most clients hit it in 30-60 days. It depends on your industry density and your Google Business Profile completeness — both of which we audit on the first call.
Why $500 when other agencies charge $5K-$15K?
We've built the systems once. You're paying for the productized output, not the hours. We also don't have a sales team or a Manhattan office. We pass that overhead savings to you.
Do you guarantee rankings?
No one can guarantee Google. But here's our public data: 9 of 10 keywords on Page 1 in 18 days for a brand-new domain. Show us a freelancer with that case study. If we don't get you to Page 1 for at least 3 commercial keywords in 90 days, we work for free until we do.
I'm afraid to leave my current site. What if the migration breaks?
We keep your old site live as a backup for 30 days during migration. We test every page redirect. We don't flip DNS until the new site is verified. Buffalo Windshield's Wix predecessor stayed up for 30 days post-launch as insurance.
What if I want to leave EVM in 6 months?
You own the site. We export the codebase to your GitHub, transfer the domain to your registrar, and hand off the hosting. Done in 24 hours. No "we keep the site" clauses. Ever.

Want the same? Book the call.

Free 30 minutes with Jesse. No deck. No pitch. We look at your business, scope the build, and you walk away with a written number — even if you don't hire us.
