Every day people look for a business like yours on their phone. If you're not there, they walk into the one that is. I build the site that puts you back in front of them.
Most owners I talk to don't think they need this. Then I show them what happens when somebody searches for their business on a phone. Here is what is usually going on.
Somebody types "barbería cerca de mí" three blocks from your door. The shop on the next avenue shows up with photos, hours and reviews. You don't show up at all. That was a customer already looking for you.
People decide in about eight seconds. If they can't see what you sell, what it costs, and whether you're open right now, they keep scrolling. They are not judging your business. They never saw it.
The place down the block paid somebody to set this up two years ago. Every month you wait, they take the customers who were searching for what you sell. This is the cheapest problem you will ever fix.
A full site for a Bronx waxing studio, live and taking real bookings today. Every service and price is listed, so clients know the cost before they ever text her. Booking runs through Square and collects the deposit up front, which means fewer no-shows. The prep rules and cancellation policy live on the page, so she stopped answering the same five questions over and over. Her home address stays private until a deposit clears.
You don't have to spend a thousand dollars to find out if this helps you. Start at seventy-five, see what changes, then decide.
No website yet. Let's just make sure you show up on Google Maps when somebody nearby searches for what you sell.
For barber shops, salons, restaurants and bodegas. Anyone starting from zero who needs a real presence.
For businesses with an old site, or new spots that want to open the right way from day one.
For restaurants, lounges and event spaces serious about growing on social.
Cash is not the only way to pay me. If money is tight right now, that is not a reason to keep waiting. Tell me what you can do and we will find something fair to both of us.
In person at your shop, or on the phone. In English or Spanish. I ask what you sell and who walks in. No jargon.
Before you pay anything, I build a rough version with your name on it so you can see it on your own phone.
Half down. I photograph the space, write the copy, build the site. You review it before anyone else sees it.
Second half on launch. I show you how to update it. Call me when something breaks and I pick up.
I'm Samuel. I grew up in the Bronx and I still work here. By day I keep over 300 New York City buildings out of trouble with the City, handling the inspections, filings and paperwork that landlords get fined thousands of dollars for missing. That work does not forgive a mistake or a late deadline, and I bring that same standard to a website.
Before that I worked IT help desk and tech support, which means I spent years explaining technical things to people who did not want a lecture. That is the part that matters here. You will never get jargon from me, and no question is a stupid one.
Under S.Built I build sites for the businesses I walk past every day. Restaurants, barber shops, salons, bodegas, service providers. No templates, no page builders, no monthly software you don't understand and can't cancel.
I speak English and Portuguese, and I understand Spanish. If it's easier for you, bring a family member who translates, or just talk to me in Spanish and I'll follow along. Nobody has ever lost a project over language.
You don't need to fill out anything or know what you want yet. Call or text, tell me the name of your business, and I'll show up with something already built on my phone so you can see it. Free, no obligation.
Pick one and I'll fill in the message for you. Just add your business name and send.
No forms, no obligation. I reply the same day.
