What this can include
- Projects on the website platform he builds and supports
- A defined scope: new site or redesign, which pages, and what the owner must provide
- Owner interview: who you serve, which offers to grow, and how customers find you now
- Owner-confirmed facts, hours, photos of the real place, and permission for quotes
- New sites and redesigns that keep URLs and pages that already work
- Service pages with a clear next step: call, visit, book, or request information
- Attention to speed, how the site feels to use, and ongoing improvements
- A working mobile experience, and a log of completed website work
The platform he builds and supports
Your website should do the selling when you are not on the phone: what you offer, why you are the right choice, and exactly how to get in touch.
His focus is projects on the website platform he builds and supports. He recommends moving a site onto that platform so he can look after speed, how people use the site, content, technical improvements, and the work that comes later. Website development, SEO, AEO, and GEO stay together around the client’s goals.
A website typically takes one to two weeks, depending on the project and finishing the knowledge-base interviews. Website builds are quoted separately. Monthly plans are separate. Clients pay a website setup fee and select a monthly package. The client owns the website, the domain, and the content, and receives access to the GitHub repository and information about the software used. They keep the website if they part ways.
What to expect on timing, the setup fee, and ownership is in what to expect with a new website.
Why he recommends that platform for ongoing work is in why one website platform.
What the project includes, and what you provide
Scope is written down: a new site or a redesign, which pages, and what stays. Existing addresses that already bring useful visits or links should be preserved. A rebuild that throws those away is a mistake.
The owner supplies the knowledge the internet cannot invent: who you want to reach, which services to grow, hours, how customers find you now, and stories you are willing to publish. AI can organize a draft. You confirm the facts. Private customer details stay off the site.
Visitors should know they are in the right place
One of the biggest mistakes Mark sees is making people work too hard to understand what the business does. The headline, images, and opening description should work together. If the company is helpful and organized in person, the website should feel that way too.
Let’s face it: a confusing site creates the wrong first impression. Speed, clear menus, useful information, and simple contact forms build confidence. A customer should not have to hunt for a phone number or figure out how to request a quote.
Every page should have a purpose
Talking with the owner matters because the stories and firsthand experience often never made it onto the site. Mark draws that out and turns it into useful content. More pages are useful only when each page has something worthwhile to offer.
Here’s the deal: a finished website is not finished marketing. Search is an on-ramp; the site is the destination. Pages need ongoing attention so a visitor is not looking at five-year-old information — a current restaurant menu is a simple example of why that matters.
A Facebook page is another on-ramp. Do you still need a website if you have Facebook?
Prepare before the busy season
Mountain businesses often depend on a relatively short window. When winter customers matter, winter content should be reviewed before the busy season. Depending on the business, that planning might start near the end of summer: update service details, answer seasonal questions, and fill gaps where information is missing.
Changing a page is not a promise that Google will send more traffic. The change needs a real purpose, then a review of what happened — useful visits, calls, inquiries, bookings, and purchases where those can be tracked.
Snow season, summer, and the slower months are in the season-by-season marketing guide.

Questions
What do I need to provide?
A live URL if you already have a site, the services you want to grow, who you want to reach, current hours, and facts you can confirm. Photos of the real place help. You do not need a long brief. Mark interviews you, then you review the draft.
Do you only build sites for one type of business?
No. The work is for mountain businesses that need to be found: lodging, restaurants, contractors, retail, and other local services. Each site is built around what that owner actually offers.
Will a redesign throw away pages that already bring traffic?
It should not. Existing pages may already attract useful visits or have valuable links. A rebuild needs to preserve that value and handle changed addresses carefully.
Does a new website include SEO?
His approach combines website development, SEO, AEO, and GEO around the client’s business goals, on the platform he builds and supports. A site should be search-friendly from the start: clear information, a working structure, and a next step that works on a phone. Big Bear website design has its own page when the project is for that community.
Are you a website designer in Big Bear?
Yes. Kendrick Mountain Consulting designs and builds websites for small businesses in Big Bear Lake and Big Bear City. Big Bear website design has its own page. Each build is quoted separately. Call (909) 443-2260.
Do you do website design for the Inland Empire?
The websites are for San Bernardino Mountains businesses, including Big Bear and Lake Arrowhead. Many of their customers come up from San Bernardino and the Inland Empire for the day. He also serves Southern California, and he works with remote clients. The primary focus stays on the mountains.
How long does a website take, and who owns it?
A website typically takes one to two weeks, depending on the project and finishing the knowledge-base interviews. Website builds are quoted separately. Monthly plans are separate. The client owns the website, the domain, and the content, and receives access to the GitHub repository and information about the software used. They keep the website if they part ways.
