DFW · Local Web Studio

Local websites that actually bring in customers.

I'm a one-person studio in the DFW area. I hand-build local businesses a custom site for free, then add the system that actually grows it: online booking and deposits, reminders, lead capture, whatever your shop runs on. No templates, no overseas team, no monthly mystery.

Free bespoke site to start Built by hand in DFW The system your shop needs

01 · The offer

First the site. Then the system that grows it.

We start with a gift, not an invoice. You get a real website that looks like your shop and works on a phone. When it's earning its keep, we add the system that fits your business — booking and deposits, lead capture, whatever turns visitors into customers.

STEP 01 The gift

A site built just for you. Free.

A fast, handsome, mobile-first website made for your business, not pulled off a template shelf. It's yours to keep. This is how we meet, and how you see what I do before you ever pay a dime.

Custom design in your brand, hand-coded
Looks great on the phone first
Found on Google, fast to load

STEP 02 The upgrade

The system that grows it, when you're ready.

Every business needs something different. For shops that take appointments that's the Front Desk — clients book online, a deposit holds the slot, and reminders cut the no-shows. For others it's lead capture, quotes, or reviews. I build the one that grows your business.

02 · What I do

Built by hand, start to finish.

No page-builder, no template farm, no team in another timezone. Just one person who designs it, codes it, ships it, and answers the phone when you need a change.

Care & Updates

SIMPLE MONTHLY

Real human support
No long contracts

Appointment shop, storefront, or trade — every business needs a different system, and I build the one that actually grows yours. Pricing is a conversation, not a checkout: a small one-time setup plus a simple monthly that pays for itself the first time it saves you a booking or a lead. If a price is the only thing in the way, we'll find one that works.

04 · The person

Hi, I'm Drew. I build it myself.

I live and work in the Dallas–Fort Worth area, and I build every site by hand. No drag-and-drop builder, no template farm, no team in another timezone you'll never reach. When something needs changing, you text me and it gets changed.

I started Made Local because local shops deserve a site that pulls its weight, not just a digital business card that sits there. The free site is how I prove it. The system behind it is how it pays you back.

— Drew
