Built for local businesses

Local businesses shouldn’t have to choose between marketing and margin

AXF Creative builds websites and runs Google Ads for local service businesses: $1 to start a five-page site, then only $50 a month for hosting. Extra pages are $50 each, and Google Ads management is $100 a month per campaign. SEO and AEO fundamentals are included. No retainers, no contracts, no sales calls, and 100% of AXF fees back within 30 days if it isn’t right.

Why we’re different

Agency quality, without the agency overhead

  • Pay only for what you need

    No big monthly retainer for work you never see. You buy the pages, ads, and SEO you actually want.

  • Quality builds at a fraction of the cost

    AI does the drafting, people do the judgment — so the site is agency-grade without the agency invoice.

  • No long contracts

    Cancel any time with 30 days’ notice. Transferring the site off our hosting has a one-time fee — see our cancellation policy.

  • Risk-free for 30 days

    If it isn't right within the first 30 days of checkout, email us and we refund 100% of what you paid. Ad spend goes to Google directly, so that part isn't ours to refund.

  • No scammy sales calls

    Every price is published and you check out online. Nobody calls to talk you into a large monthly retainer before you're allowed to see a number.

  • Start your build

    $1 to start, then only $50/mo for hosting. No retainers, no sales calls.

How it works

Real people, using AI to build faster for less

AI handles the slow, expensive parts. A specialist makes the calls.

  1. 30 min

    Onboarding call with a marketing specialist

    A specialist walks through your business, your offer, and the customers you want to reach, and leaves with everything needed to build.

  2. ~40 sec

    Our team puts AI to work

    Your specialist feeds the brief into our AI tooling — copy, structure, and layout come back as a working draft, not a wireframe.

  3. 5–7 days

    A person refines every detail

    A designer edits the draft, checks the SEO fundamentals, and prepares it for launch.
