Built For Modern Discovery
The Way Businesses Are Discovered Has Already Changed
Customers still use Google. But they're also asking ChatGPT. They're asking Gemini. They're using Claude. They're using Perplexity.
They're relying on AI-powered search and recommendation systems to find businesses, compare providers, and make purchasing decisions. At Fivenson Studios, we help businesses build digital foundations that improve visibility across traditional search engines and modern AI platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity and Grok.
Because getting discovered today is about more than rankings. It's about becoming the business people and AI systems understand, trust, and recommend.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Most projects start at $3,500 for a focused small-business site to $100,000+ for complex e-commerce builds. We give you a clear, detailed quote after a free consultation.
Most custom websites take 4–8 weeks. More complex projects can take 8–12 weeks. We give you a clear timeline during the planning phase.
Yes, 100%. You own your website, domain, content, and all design files. No hostage-taking, no lock-in contracts.
Discovery call → strategy plan → Figma design → build, test, optimize for SEO → launch. You're involved at every stage.
Each project phase (strategy, design concepts, and build) includes two rounds of revisions. That gives you plenty of room to fine-tune everything without the project losing focus or ballooning in scope.
Yes. We know that investing in a professional website or rebrand is a big decision. We offer flexible payment plans so you can get started without paying everything upfront.
Yes. Every project includes a hands-on walkthrough or a written guide so your team can handle content updates, add blog posts, and make basic changes without needing to call us for every little thing.
You have options. You can pick up a monthly maintenance retainer for ongoing updates and priority support, or purchase hourly blocks for one-off changes as they come up.
We specialize in WordPress and Shopify - the two most popular platforms for small to mid-sized businesses. That said, we can work with nearly any CMS or e-commerce platform your project needs.
Absolutely. We’ll audit your current site, identify what’s holding you back, and rebuild it with a fresh design, better performance, and updated content while preserving your existing SEO value.
Yes - every site includes foundational SEO. For active competition, we offer dedicated SEO services with monthly reporting.
Early wins can show up in a few weeks, usually local visibility and pages that were already close to ranking. Most businesses see meaningful movement in 2 to 6 months, and competitive industries take 6 to 12. The difference is that SEO compounds: paid ads stop producing the day you stop paying, while SEO keeps working.
Local SEO focuses on getting your business to show up when people search for services in a specific area (like "web design near me"). Regular SEO is broader - it helps you rank nationally or globally.
Search for “SEO” plus the city or state that company claims to serve. If they don’t show up on page one for their own service in their own market, that tells you everything you need to know. Fivenson Studios ranks for SEO and web design terms across Michigan.
We're the only Michigan agency with a 5.0 rating across every review platform. Our clients see 58–77% average revenue increases, and you work directly with our senior team.
Yes. About 40% of our projects are outside Michigan - from California to New York. Our process works the same wherever you are.
Yes, and it is a different job from ranking on Google. AI assistants answer by running a query fan-out across the sources they can read and trust, so we build the signals they pull from: structured content, topical authority, and consistent third-party consensus about who you are and what you do well.
No. Your website, branding, SEO, and ads are built by our own team. That matters more than it sounds. The usual setup is one vendor for the site, another for ads, another for SEO, and when results stall they point at each other while you sit in the middle running the project. One team means one point of accountability for the whole result.
Yes, and nonprofit pricing is available. We work with foundations, community and member organizations, churches and faith groups, and local associations. What counts as success is usually different from a business: donations, volunteers, members, or program signups rather than sales. We build and measure toward whichever of those matters to you.
We hear this more than you’d think. That's why we have a long "never do" list. You get a clear contract, a defined scope, a realistic timeline, and direct access to the people doing the work. You’ll never wonder what’s happening with your project.
