Sites by Lonnie turns the photos, services, pricing, reviews, and information you already have into a polished website your customers can easily find, understand, and share.
No technical knowledge required. No need to start from scratch.
None of this is your fault. A social page is built for today's post, not for someone trying to find out what you charge on a Tuesday night.
A website gives everything a permanent home. Keep posting, keep talking to people, keep the community you've built. Just stop making customers dig for the basics.
It was clear the day you posted it. Two hundred posts later, nobody can find it.
Your best work is in there somewhere, mixed in with holiday hours and a photo of the shop cat.
Hours. Prices. Do you travel. What's included. Every one of those is a message you have to type again.
Regulars know. New customers only know the one thing they happened to scroll past.
Some customers don't use it, and some can't see much without logging in. That's a closed door.
When someone says "send me your info," you should be able to send one thing.
Nothing here gets thrown away. Your photos, your prices, your reviews, and your booking link all stay. They just stop hiding from the people trying to give you money.
The pieces are scattered: photos, a pricing post, hours, a service area, a review, an about paragraph, and a booking link.
These are the kinds of businesses this works best for. The pattern is the same across all of them: real work, real customers, and everything living on a social page.
Don't see yourself up there? That list isn't a rulebook. If you have customers who need to find you, understand you, and get in touch, you're in the right place.
Three ways this usually goes. If yours is a little different, say so and we'll figure it out together.
You don't need a plan, a brand guide, or a folder of finished copy. You need the stuff that's already on your Facebook page, and someone to make sense of it.
If you already have a site that feels dated, hard to edit, or awkward on a phone, it usually doesn't need to be thrown out. It needs a rebuild that keeps what's working.
Some businesses want to be done and never think about it again. Others want a person they can text when the summer menu changes. Either is fine.
You shouldn't have to fill out a form to find out whether you can afford this. Here's what things cost.
Everything a customer needs on a single page they can scroll. The right choice for most first websites.

Your website stays online, updated, and looked after. Starts the day your site officially launches, not before.
New sections, seasonal swaps, or anything we didn't plan for at the start. Only if and when you want it.
An active, Facebook-based sleepover party business with beautiful photos and a real following, given a home of its own.
Everything a customer could want was already there. Gorgeous photography, clearly defined packages, happy reviews, pricing, themes, and booking details. It was just spread across a Facebook page, which meant a parent planning a party had to scroll, guess, or send a message to get a straight answer.
A colorful, mobile-friendly website that lays out the whole experience in one place. Packages and themes are easy to compare, the photos are actually browsable, reviews and owner information build trust, and every path leads to the booking form that was already working.
What used to be a pinned post is a set of cards now. Pick your campsite, see what is included, add extras if you want them.
Every theme gets its own space, so a kid can point at the one they want instead of scrolling through a year of posts.
The photography was always the best part of this business. It is the first thing you see now, not something you dig for.
Reviews and a real introduction from Natalie build the trust, and every section points at the booking form that was already working.
Want something like this for your business? Tell me about it.
No lengthy brief. No jargon. You talk about your business, I handle the website part, and you say yes before anything goes live.
Send your Facebook page, your current website, photos, a booking form, a price list scribbled on a napkin. Whatever you already use. That's the whole assignment.
I pull out what matters, ask about anything that's missing, and put together a direction that fits how your business actually works.
You get a private preview link. Click around, show it to your partner, tell me what's off. Nothing goes live until you're happy with it.
I connect it to your domain, make sure everything works, and hand you a link you'll be glad to share.
You don't need to write a long brief or learn what a CMS is. If you can describe your business out loud, you can do this part.

Serving local businesses and select remote clients. If you're nearby, we can talk in person over coffee.
Years ago I designed and hosted websites for people, first by hand in HTML, back when that was just how you did it, and then carrying those skills over into WordPress. I liked it a lot.
Then I spent a long stretch in software, working in quality assurance, product development, and creative technology. That work taught me to find the thing that's quietly broken, ask the question nobody thought to ask, and turn a pile of scattered information into something a person can actually follow. Which, it turns out, is most of what building a good small business website is.
Now I'm back to websites with a much faster way of working. Modern tools, AI included, let me take on custom work that used to be out of reach for a small budget. I'll be upfront about that because it's part of how I keep this practical. The taste, the judgment, the checking, and every final call are still mine.
What that means for you: you talk to the person doing the work. Not a sales rep, not a ticket queue, not a team you never meet.
I'd rather show you a real preview than send you a proposal full of adjectives. You'll see the actual website, on your actual phone, before you decide anything.
Short answers, no jargon. If yours isn't here, just ask me directly.
Less than you think. A link to your Facebook page is usually enough to start. Photos, a price list, and your booking link help. If something's missing, I'll ask.
Yes, and that's usually where we start. I go through what's already public, pull out the useful parts, and check with you before anything is used.
A focused one-page site is $500, a complete business website is $1,000, and larger custom work starts at $1,500. Managed hosting is $35 a month once you launch. Full breakdown is up in the Services section.
No. If you have one, we'll use it. If you don't, I'll help you pick one and connect it, and that help is included in the price. You buy it in your own account, so the domain stays yours no matter what.
Please do. Facebook is great for posts, updates, and talking with people. Your website is the reliable place customers go when they need real answers. They work well together.
Yes. You'll see a private preview before launch and we'll go through your feedback then. We agree up front on what's included, so you'll know before we start where the line is between a revision and a new request.
Usually, yes. If your form, scheduler, or booking tool is already working, the goal is to keep it and make it easier to find, not replace it.
Yes, and phones come first. Most of your customers will see the site on a phone, so that's the version I design around.
You get the link, and I'll show you what to expect. If you'd like help with updates down the road, we can sort out what that looks like for your business.
Yes. Sometimes the answer is a rebuild, sometimes it's a cleanup. I'll tell you honestly which one I think you need.
Yes, for $35 a month. That covers keeping your site online, updated, and looked after. It's optional, and it doesn't start until your website actually launches. Hosting while we're still designing and reviewing is free.
