- Contact us for a free consultation
Tell us where you are and what you want more of. The first conversation costs nothing and you are not handed to a salesperson.
- We walk through the business with you
We go through how work reaches you today, what is leaking, and what your options actually are. You hear the trade-offs, including the ones that argue against spending money.
- We present a proposal
A written proposal built on what we discussed, with scope and price set out plainly. Nothing in it will be a surprise from the conversation.
- You sign, pay, and we get to work
Once you approve it we start delivering, and you get the numbers as it runs rather than a report at the end.

What your neighbors say
Recent reviews from real customers, with names and cities.
“I recently hired Daevara to migrate my website away from the agency I was using. Robert rebuilt the website, and it's so much faster and professional now. My old agency was very frustrating to work with, especially when I was trying to get away from them. Robert stepped in and helped me reclaim ownership of my domain name and Google accounts, he was there with me on calls to the agency and even helped me write emails to them to make sure they did what I needed. So glad to have found a reputable company to work with.”via Google
“I hired Robert for a business assessment, and I'm so glad I did. He was able to put together a plan that was completely aligned with my business, and also found issues I hadn’t ever considered. The risks he was able to point out could have been the end of my business if they happened. After working with him I feel confident moving forward knowing I’ve covered all of my bases. I highly recommend Daevara, even if you think everything is ok, they are so thorough they will definitely find things you never even thought about.”via Google
“Love this company and plan to do business with them a long time. My previous agency kept trying to sell me add on SEO and told me I needed to pay more for AI visibility. Even when I paid, no one ever said they found me with AI. I've had my website on Robert's platform for about 3 months, and I'm finally getting customers from chatgpt, copilot, and some ai called perplexity. Love it.”via Google

Common questions
What kind of businesses do you work with?
Local small businesses of every type. Trades, clinics, shops, studios, professional practices and nonprofits. The work is the same underneath: get found, get booked, and stop losing time to busywork.
Do I have to buy everything?
No. Most people start with one thing, usually the website or the ads, and add later if it earns its place. Nothing is bundled to pad an invoice.
What does a website cost?
Sites are built on SturdyWeb, our own platform, on flat-rate pricing that covers the build, hosting, maintenance and monitoring. There is no separate five-figure build fee.
Is SEO extra?
No. Search setup and ongoing search work are included while your site is on SturdyWeb. So is Google Ads campaign management. They are part of the platform rather than separate line items.
How fast can we start?
An assessment can start the week you ask for one. A new site is usually live within a few weeks, depending on how quickly we can gather your content.
Are you a big agency?
No, and that is on purpose. You work with the person doing the work. If that person is on holiday you will be told, not handed to an account manager.
