Broken link

A button that goes nowhere is a customer who was ready to call and could not.

New site
Every link goes where it should.

Also fixed: No padlock, Tap-to-call links, Out-of-date details, Images Google can’t read.

What I changed

The old site buried the posted rates and the VHF Channel 9 / chart #13305 directions in plain text paragraphs on separate pages. The new site leads with both phone lines and Ch. 9 in a top bar, puts every posted rate on one scannable rate board, and puts the Winter Storage Contract download one click from the services section.

Your website, rebuilt. Finished and waiting.

  • Built for phones
  • Loads fast

Before customers call or walk in, many check your website on their phone. If it looks dated or loads slowly, they quietly move on, and you never know it happened.

So I rebuilt Knight Marine Service's site: fast, modern, great on phones, and easy for Google and AI assistants to read. It's finished and waiting. No sales call, no design meetings, nothing to approve. If anything's wrong, tell me and I'll fix it.

$500 to launch, then $25/month for hosting. I handle go-live myself: a quick DNS change, about 10 minutes. One or two extra customers a month and it pays for itself. Don't like it? Nothing changes, no contract. (An agency would charge $3,000–$5,000 and take weeks.)

“Since you created the website for us, I receive at least two to three calls every week from people who found me on the internet. This never happened before with the old website. I have taken on close to 10 new clients… from these inquiries, and the cost of the website has paid for itself 100 times over.”

This is a fully built, real site — not a sketch — created on spec to show what's possible. Recognize your business? Get in touch to claim it, or request removal and it comes down within 24 hours.
