What We Do

Kickass Websites builds done-for-you websites and gets local businesses found — by customers and by AI. Four services, one goal: more of the right people finding you and picking up the phone. Here’s what each one does and where it fits.

The short version

  • Web Design — a done-for-you site, live in 48 hours, guaranteed three ways.
  • SEO — get found in Google’s local results across Phoenix and Maricopa County.
  • Digital Marketing — the whole growth engine: search, paid, reputation, and measurement.
  • AI Visibility (AEO/GEO) — get named when customers ask ChatGPT, Google’s AI, and Perplexity.

Web Design

A website that loads fast, wins on mobile, and turns the click into a call — done for you, live in 48 hours, no five-figure agency invoice and no DIY builder to fight. Guaranteed three ways: speed, satisfaction, and value.

SEO

Get found when Valley customers search for what you do — in Google’s map pack, the organic results, and increasingly the AI answers people now ask first. We build it for the sprawling, seasonal, competitive reality of the Phoenix metro, city by city.

Digital Marketing

The full growth engine, not a single tactic: SEO to get found, paid to reach buyers who aren’t searching yet, reputation to earn trust, AI visibility to get cited — and the measurement that ties it together so you know what’s actually working. We run it tuned to each local market.

AI Visibility — AEO & GEO

The newest front in getting found: when a customer asks an AI “who’s the best near me?”, it hands back two or three names. If yours isn’t one of them, you’re invisible. Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) get your business named and cited across ChatGPT, Google’s AI Overviews, Perplexity, and Gemini. It starts with a free AI Visibility Audit.

Where we work

We serve the entire Phoenix metro and Maricopa County — Mesa, Chandler, Scottsdale, Gilbert, Tempe, Glendale, Peoria, Surprise, Avondale, Goodyear, Buckeye, and beyond. The full list, with every city’s pages, is on the Service Areas page. (Our AI-visibility work isn’t geographic — we do that for businesses nationwide.)

Frequently asked questions

Which service do I need? If you need a website, start with web design. If you have a site but customers can’t find you, start with SEO. If you want coordinated growth across channels, that’s digital marketing. And if you want to know whether AI recommends you, start with the free AI Visibility Audit.

Do you bundle them? Often, yes — a website that’s built fast and clean is the foundation that SEO, marketing, and AI visibility all stand on. We’ll tell you straight what you actually need rather than selling you all four.

Do you only work in Phoenix? For web design and SEO we focus on the Valley, where we know the market cold (see Service Areas). For AI visibility, which isn’t tied to location, we work with businesses anywhere in the country.

What does it cost? Web design is a flat, done-for-you price — far below the $8–12K a traditional agency quotes. SEO, marketing, and AI-visibility work is scoped after we see where you stand, which is what the free audit is for.
