Most local businesses are one IT problem
away from a bad week.
These aren't rare edge cases. They're the default state for businesses that haven't had a dedicated tech partner.
Your website is losing you customers
A site that loads slowly or looks broken on a phone sends visitors straight to your competitor. Most local business sites fail this test.
Your network was set up and forgotten
If the last time someone looked at your Wi-Fi or firewall was years ago, you're running on trust — not security.
You don't know if your data is safe
Backups that were never tested, old passwords, and unpatched software are the most common causes of small business data loss.
We fix that — without the enterprise price tag.
What's included
What every site gets.
These aren't upsells — they're table stakes. Every Copper Bay Tech site ships with all of this.
Fast load times
Custom-coded in Next.js — no bloated page builders. Most sites score 90+ on Google PageSpeed.
Mobile-first
Over 60% of your traffic is on a phone. We design for that first, desktop second.
Local SEO built in
Schema markup, Google Business Profile setup, and location-targeted content baked in from day one.
No templates
Every site is designed and coded from scratch for your business. No Squarespace. No Wix. No WordPress themes.
2–3 week turnaround
We set a launch date before we start and hold to it. Most business sites are live in under three weeks.
Flat-fee pricing
You get a quote upfront and that's the number. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices at the end.
Client Result
“Before Copper Bay Tech, our website was embarrassingly slow and half the contact form submissions were going to spam. They rebuilt everything in two weeks — we've already gotten three new inquiries through the site.”
Representative example — illustrates the kind of work and results we aim for, not a verified quote from a specific named client.

How it works
From call to live site in under three weeks.
Discovery call
We spend 30 minutes learning your business, your customers, and what you want visitors to do when they land on the site.
Design & copy
We send you a design mockup and page copy for review before a single line of code is written.
Build & test
Once you approve the direction, we build it out — fully coded, tested on real devices across browsers.
Launch & hand off
We push the site live, set up hosting, domain, and email, and walk you through how to request changes going forward.

Add-on module, extra costCommon questions
What does a website cost?
Most small business websites fall in the $2,500–$4,500 range depending on the number of pages and complexity. You'll get a flat-fee quote before any work starts — no hourly billing.
How long does it take?
Most sites go live in 2–3 weeks. Complex projects with custom functionality can take 4–6 weeks. We agree on a timeline upfront and stick to it.
Do you use WordPress or Squarespace?
No. We custom-code every site. This means faster load times, better security, easier SEO, and no dependency on plugin ecosystems that break over time.
Will I be able to make updates myself?
Yes. We build a simple editing layer so you can update text and images without touching code. Structural changes (new pages, layout edits) we handle for you — usually same-day.
Do you work with businesses outside Petaluma and Santa Rosa?
Web work is fully remote, so we work with businesses across Sonoma County and beyond. IT support is prioritized locally, but web clients can be anywhere in California.
