What it takes to be found in St. Augustine.
St. Augustine lives on visitors. Searches here are planning searches: "St. Augustine vacation rental near the beach", "ghost tour St. Augustine", "bed and breakfast historic district". The big booking sites and tour aggregators own the top results, and the local businesses underneath them are competing for what's left.
The way past the aggregators is the thing they can't do: real local depth. A page for each property, each tour, each neighborhood from Vilano Beach to Anastasia Island, written by someone who knows the town, with reviews and a Google Business Profile that stays current. Google and AI search both reward that, and guests book direct when they find it.
So in St. Augustine I build sites for direct bookings and local search first: a booking engine connected to your channel manager, pages that answer what visitors ask, schema markup so AI search can cite you, and a blog that keeps the site growing all season.

01Do you meet with clients in St. Augustine?
Yes. St. Augustine is home, so an in-person kickoff or review is easy to set up. Most of the work happens over video and email, which keeps it moving no matter where either of us is that week.
02Can a St. Augustine vacation rental get direct bookings?
Yes, and it's most of what I do. A site with a page per property, a booking engine connected to your channel manager, and local guides to St. Augustine bring in guests who book direct instead of paying Airbnb or Vrbo fees. See the vacation rentals page for how that works.
03How much does a website cost in St. Augustine?
Websites are part of the monthly plans, which start at $575 a month and include the site, hosting, SEO, local SEO and new content. Month to month, no long contracts. The pricing page has the full breakdown.
04Can you help me show up in the St. Augustine map pack?
Yes. That's the Google Business Profile work: categories, photos, weekly posts, reviews and consistent listings. For a business with a real St. Augustine address, two to four months of steady work usually gets you into the top three for your main searches.
05What kinds of St. Augustine businesses do you work with?
Vacation rentals and property managers, inns and bed and breakfasts, tour and charter operators, restaurants, shops, trades and services. The common thread is a small business that needs to be found on Google and in AI search without a marketing department.
