Web design, local SEO and cybersecurity · Myrtle Beach, SCWeb design and security, from one firm in Myrtle Beach.

Websites that rank. And stay locked.

We do web design in Myrtle Beach and across the Grand Strand, get those sites found on Google, and keep them secure, the part most web designers skip. Every site we audited this month had a hole in it: a credit application collecting Social Security numbers with no privacy policy, a domain quietly redirecting to a casino, a form saving passwords as readable text. We build sites without those holes, watch them around the clock so they stay that way, test them the way an attacker would, and pick up the phone when someone else's site gets hit. The same engineers run VYVE and Cue, two platforms strangers trust with their nights and their weddings.

    Built for the worst minute, not the demo.

    Our own software runs live events: a full room, unreliable Wi-Fi, a show that can't stop. We build for that minute, and your website gets the same standard.

    The page is the part you see. Under it we build the database, the accounts, the payments and the apps, so nobody has to call in a second company later.

Who you're hiring

A note from the engineer who'll build it.

Nikita Huttenlocher, founder and lead engineer
Nikita HuttenlocherFounder and lead engineerMyrtle Beach, SC

I'm Nikita, founder and lead engineer. I've been working with computers since I was seven, and today I architect and build software end to end: a realtime event platform, a SaaS with its own iPhone apps, AI moderation, custom firmware for hardware, and the billing and payout systems that run two businesses on real money.

I also come from live events: production AVL and DJing with Pierpoint Events, hundreds of weddings and events over the years, and nightlife across the Grand Strand. I've been the one standing there when the tech fails in front of a crowd, so I build for that moment: a packed room on bad Wi-Fi, a show that can't stop at midnight, a customer who only ever sees you on their phone. You deal with me, not an account manager.

The first local site we rebuilt was my dad's. He's been fixing cars here since 1976. The day after it launched, he was the top Google result for mobile mechanic in Myrtle Beach. If your business deserves the same, write in. It comes straight to me.

Questions

Straight answers.

How much does a website cost in Myrtle Beach?

Our business websites start at $5,000, online stores at $8,500, and custom systems and apps at $15,000, with an optional care plan from $249 a month. We're not the cheapest option in Myrtle Beach, on purpose: you get custom code, local SEO built in, a move off your old site that keeps your rankings and email, and a back end most web shops can't build. After a short call you get a written quote with the exact price and timeline, before any work starts.

What a website from us includes

Do you use website templates?

Never. No themes, no page builders, no drag-and-drop, no $79 template with your logo pasted in the corner. Every site is custom coded from scratch, for your business and nobody else's. That's why it loads fast, ranks clean, and doesn't look exactly like the dentist's down the street. It's also a big part of why we cost what we do: a template is cheap because someone built it once and sold it a thousand times. We build yours once, for you.

Can you move my site off Wix, Squarespace or WordPress without losing my Google rankings?

Yes, and that's most of the job. Every page address Google already knows gets a permanent redirect to the right new page, your email records are copied before anything moves, and Google is told about the new site the same night. Rankings can wobble for a few days after any move, and nobody can honestly promise otherwise. When Housecall Auto Mechanics left Wix, nothing broke on launch night, and the next day it was the top local result for mobile mechanic in Myrtle Beach.

The Housecall case study

Why not just hire the cheapest web designer I can find?

You can, and plenty of businesses do. The usual result is a template that a dozen other businesses in town already use, a site that needs a magnifying glass on a phone, and a designer who stops answering after the final invoice. A website is the one employee who works every hour of the year. We'd rather build you one that earns its keep, with code you own, Google set up properly, and someone who answers a text when your hours change.

Do you only build websites?

No, and that's the point. We run marketing too, from social media management to Google Business Profiles and ads, and we build custom software: web apps, customer and staff portals, payment and subscription systems, booking, realtime systems and native iPhone and Android apps. VYVE and Cue are both ours.

Custom software development

How long does a website take?

It depends on the site, and you get the date in writing before anything starts. Bigger builds ship in stages, so you have a working preview on your phone early instead of waiting for a big reveal.

Do you work with businesses outside Myrtle Beach?

Yes. We're based in Myrtle Beach and work all over the Grand Strand, from Little River to Georgetown and inland to Conway, and we build for businesses anywhere in the country.
