Family-Run.
Engineer-Built.
We're the Stathopoulos family—a true family business that got tired of seeing small businesses get ripped off by agencies charging $10,000+ for basic WordPress sites.
Pete is a disabled veteran and formally trained software engineer who leads our development. Katherine handles customer experience, ensuring every client feels heard and supported. Our son serves as our technical support analyst, keeping everything running smoothly.
Our mission is simple: give small businesses the same quality websites that Fortune 500 companies have—at prices that make sense for local budgets.
"We believe every local business deserves a website that actually brings in customers—not just one that 'looks nice.' As a family, we're committed to building sites that drive real results."
