What we do

One team for your whole website, start to finish.

We design, build, host, and maintain professional websites for local service businesses. You don't stitch together a designer, a developer, a host, and an SEO person. It's all one team, one bill, and one number to call when you need something.

Every site is fast, mobile-first, accessible, and structured so customers and search engines alike can actually find you. Then we keep it that way.

Why Black Slate

Everything the big agencies make hard — made simple.

  • Built from your real business

    Your services, your area, your words. No templates, no stock-photo filler, no lorem ipsum. A site that's actually about you.

  • Live in days, not months

    We start from a finished demo, so you're online in days. No drawn-out agency timeline, no endless revision rounds.

  • Hosted, monitored & maintained

    Automated uptime checks, managed SSL that auto-renews, and fixes at no charge. Your site stays fast, secure, and up. We watch it for you.

  • Month-to-month. No contracts.

    Cancel anytime: no lock-in, no cancellation fee. We earn your business every month instead of trapping you in a term.

  • Rent monthly or buy it outright

    Keep it simple with a monthly plan, or own it outright. Your choice, and you can switch. The website is built to be yours either way.

  • English + Spanish, built in

    Reach every customer in your area. Bilingual pages are part of the build — not a costly bolt-on later.

  • Found by AI (AEO)

    Structured so ChatGPT and Google's AI can understand and recommend your business: clean schema, real answers, local signals baked in.

  • Your own leads dashboard

    Every call, form, and message lands in one simple dashboard, so no inquiry slips through and you can see what's working. Mark a job won and ask that customer for a Google review in one tap.

Smart add-ons

Turn your website into a 24/7 employee.

Optional AI tools that answer the phone, answer questions, book jobs, and quote prices around the clock. Platform-hosted and billed monthly. Add or drop them anytime, on rented or owned sites alike.

AI receptionist

$99/mo
