# Remote Web Design — Anywhere in the US

I build hand-coded websites for small businesses anywhere in the United States — same fixed pricing as my Kansas City clients: $750 one-time, or $100/month for 12 months. Every site ships measured — 88 to 100 on Google's throttled mobile test against a Kansas City median of 55, with every number and date published on the case studies — you own it outright, and the whole build happens over text, email, and a live preview link. I'm a registered Missouri LLC you can verify before you spend a dollar.

What they tell you about hiring online:

- You need somebody local.

- Remote means risky.

- You get what you pay for on the internet.

You don't need somebody local.**You need somebody verifiable.**

## Don't trust me. Test me. It takes 60 seconds.

The internet is full of web guys you can't check. Portfolio screenshots can be faked. Reviews can be bought. "10+ years of experience" is a sentence anyone can type.

Live websites can't lie. So here's what I'd do if I were you:

- Open Google's own test tool: [pagespeed.web.dev](https://pagespeed.web.dev/)

- Paste in any site I've built — try [xtremepressurewashingkc.com](https://2kwebdev.com/work/xtreme-pressure-washing/), [blindfoldtattoos.com](https://2kwebdev.com/work/blindfold-tattoos/), [workhorsecrs.com](https://2kwebdev.com/work/workhorse-court-reporting/), or [americanstandardkc.com](https://2kwebdev.com/work/american-standard-garage-door/)

- Watch the scores come back.

Then paste in your current website. Then paste in the site of whoever else you're thinking about hiring — and paste in their portfolio work too.

That's the whole pitch. You just audited my work from your kitchen table, using Google's tool, without asking my permission. Nobody local can offer you more proof than that, and most can't offer you as much.

## Remote isn't a compromise. It's literally how I already work.

Here's a secret about my Kansas City clients: most of them work with me by text anyway. The pressure washing company, the garage door company, the tattoo studio — I've done entire builds where the only "meeting" was a thread of messages and a preview link. Not because I couldn't meet. Because texting a guy who answers beats scheduling a meeting with an agency that doesn't.

Nothing about my work is geographic. I hand-code every site — no page builders, no templates — and deploy to a global edge network, which means your site is served fast from everywhere, not from some server in Missouri. You review the build on a live preview link that updates as I work. You watch it come together from your phone.

No agency. No ticket queue. No account manager translating your words to a developer you'll never meet. The person who builds your site is the person who answers your texts — and that's true whether you're in Blue Springs or Boise.

## How a remote build actually works

- **You text or email me.** We scope what you need — pages, booking, whatever your business runs on. You get a fixed quote. Not an estimate. A price.

- **I build.** Hand-coded, from scratch, to your brand.

- **You watch it happen.** You get a live preview link. Open it on your phone, mark up what you want changed, text me. I fix it.

- **We launch.** Your domain, your hosting, your code — you own all of it. Then I'm a text away, same as before launch.

That's it. No discovery workshops. No kickoff calls unless you want one — some people like a phone call, and I'm happy to talk. But nothing in this process requires us to be in the same room, and nothing about it changes because you're three states away.

## The part that sounds backwards: I'm a local SEO guy. Remotely.

Most of my work is making service businesses win local search — the map pack, the "near me" results, the searches that actually ring your phone. And here's the thing your town's web designer won't tell you: local rankings are built from data and code, not residency. Schema markup doesn't know where I live. Page speed doesn't care what my zip code is. Google ranks what's built right.

I'm not asking you to take that on faith either:

- I tested [105 real Kansas City small-business websites](https://2kwebdev.com/blog/state-of-kc-small-business-websites-2026/) in my own market and published the full study — method, numbers, everything. The median site scored 55/100 on Google's mobile speed test. Sites I build score 88 to 100 — every number and date is on the case-study pages.

- My own site ranks across [197 local pages](https://2kwebdev.com/areas/) in my metro — machinery I built once and understand cold.

- Every client case study on this site shows the receipts: real scores, real builds, real service businesses — pressure washing, garage doors, auto detailing, court reporting, tattoo.

If you run a service business — trades, shops, appointments, local customers — I have almost certainly already built and ranked a site for a business like yours. The fact that yours is in another state changes nothing about how the work is done.

## Same fixed prices, no matter your area code

- **Custom website: $750 one-time** — or $100/month for 12 months ($1,200 total) if spreading it out works better. Hand-coded, 88 to 100 on Google's mobile test, yours outright.

- **[Care & hosting](https://2kwebdev.com/services/care-hosting):** optional monthly plans with published prices — fast hosting, updates, and a human who answers. Texts, not tickets.

- **Custom software and tools:** by quote. One-time build, you own it, no per-seat fees, no subscriptions to me forever.

And if hiring someone off the internet still feels like a leap — I get it, that's rational — start with [The Nerdy Friend](https://2kwebdev.com/the-nerdy-friend): $250, capped. It's a small, real project. Every guide about hiring online says the same thing: test the relationship with something small before you commit to something big. I agree with them. That's why the $250 option exists.

## When I'm not your guy

I'd rather tell you now than waste your week:

- If you want weekly in-person meetings, hire local. Some people genuinely work better face to face, and no preview link replaces that for them.

- If you want a 40-person agency with a project manager, a strategist, and a slide deck — that's a real thing you can buy. It costs 10 to 60 times what I charge, and for some companies it's the right call.

- If you need a massive e-commerce catalog with thousands of SKUs and warehouse integrations, that's a bigger machine than a one-person shop should promise you.

Everyone else — the service business, the shop, the practice, the company that needs a fast site that ranks and a builder who answers — that's exactly who I work with every day.
