Web Design, SEO & Google Adsfor Delaware Businesses
Tell me what is not working. I will figure out why.
Maybe the phone rings less than it used to. Maybe you are paying for ads and cannot tell what they bring in. Maybe a competitor shows up on Google and you do not.
I have spent 25 years on the business side of the web: copywriting, SEO, advertising, and operations as COO. Sometimes the answer is a new website. Sometimes it is a few fixes to the one you have. I will tell you which.
Where Do You Want to Start?
You do not need to know whether you need a website, SEO, or ads. Start with what you want more of, and I will help you figure out the rest.
Based in Wilmington and serving businesses across Delaware, from Newark to Middletown and Dover, plus nearby Pennsylvania towns like Chadds Ford and Garnet Valley.
“We are not showing up on Google.”
I look at your site, your Google Business Profile, and the searches your customers actually use, then give you a clear list of what to fix first.
“I am paying for ads and I am not sure they work.”
I set up tracking that shows which clicks turn into calls and leads, so you can make decisions from real numbers.
“The website is not bringing in leads.”
Sometimes that takes a redesign. Sometimes it takes a few targeted fixes. I will look first and tell you which.
“I need a new website, or something more custom.”
Fast, custom-coded sites you own outright, and custom tools like MyDETax, a property lookup covering 215,000 records, when a standard website will not do the job.
Recent Work
Four businesses, four different starting points. Here is what each one needed and what I did about it.

Work directly with me
Hi, I'm Kevin Kahn.
I own and run this business myself, here in Wilmington, and I bring 25 years on the business side of a successful online company to it: copywriting, SEO, advertising, social media, and operations as COO.
So when we talk, I am not only thinking about how your site looks. I am thinking about whether it brings in customers, and what else might be getting in the way.
You work with me directly. No account managers, no handoffs, no agency markup.
More about how I workFrom My Desk
Straightforward advice on web design, SEO, and getting more customers online. I write every post myself, usually from something I ran into on a real project.
Why does my website keep getting hacked?
A hacked site usually points to a maintenance problem, not a software problem. If you are wondering why your website keeps getting hacked, start here.

How It Works
Diagnosis first, then the fix.
We talk about what you want more of
Calls, leads, better rankings, or just a clear picture of what is going on. I will ask a lot of questions about your business, because the right answer depends on them.
- Tell me what you are seeing, in your own words
- No pressure, just an honest conversation
- You do not need to know the solution yet
I do my homework
Before I recommend anything, I look at your website, how you show up on Google, your Google Business Profile, and your ads if you run them. Then I walk you through what I found.
- A real look at what is working and what is not
- Plain language, no jargon
- Useful whether or not we work together
A plan and a fixed price
You get a written recommendation and one fixed price before any work begins. Sometimes that is a new website. Sometimes it is an SEO audit, a cleanup of your ad account, or a handful of fixes to the site you have. If the smaller fix is the right one, that is what I will recommend.
- Know exactly what you are getting
- Fixed price, no surprises
- A clear timeline
What the Work Costs
Every engagement gets one fixed price before any work begins, and no long-term contract. Here is where common work starts.
Getting found and getting leads
SEO Audit
$2,500
For small websites. Larger or multi-location sites are quoted based on scope. $1,000 credited toward a project we start within 60 days.
A one-time diagnosis of how you show up on Google and why, with a prioritized list of what to fix. It works on any site, whoever built it.
Includes:
- Technical, speed, and mobile audit with clear fixes
- Keyword and competitor research mapped to real local searches
- Google Business Profile and local citation review
- AI visibility check (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI)
- Prioritized roadmap of what to do next
Best for: Businesses that are not showing up on Google the way they should and want to know why before spending more. See what the audit covers.
Google Ads Management
Starting at $500/month
Plus a one-time setup fee. Monthly fees scale with ad spend.
Ongoing management for businesses that want to know exactly which clicks turn into calls and leads.
Includes:
- Account setup or restructuring
- Conversion tracking for calls and form submissions
- Keyword and negative-keyword management
- Ad copy and testing
- Monthly reporting on what the ads actually produced
Best for: Businesses already running ads that are not sure what they are getting, or ready to start and want it set up right. See pricing by ad spend.
Websites and custom builds
Business Website
Starting at $2,000
Final pricing depends on scope, number of pages, and features.
A multi-page website built to convert visitors into customers and support long-term growth.
Includes:
- 3–5 custom pages
- Conversion-focused layout
- Enhanced SEO setup
- Contact forms and lead routing
- One planning session plus ongoing collaboration during the build
- Unlimited revisions for up to 30 days
Best for: Established or growing businesses that want to compete online, clearly present their services, and generate consistent leads.
Custom Projects & Advanced Websites
Starting at $5,000
For businesses that need more than a standard website. MyDETax.com is a real example: 215,000 property records, built solo, 15,000 visitors in the first three months.
Final pricing depends on complexity, integrations, and scope.
Examples:
- Custom forms or workflows
- Database-driven content
- Internal tools or dashboards
- Advanced integrations
- Multi-location or complex service structures
- Higher-volume lead handling
Best for: Organizations with complex data, specific workflows, or a problem that a standard website template simply cannot solve. If you have an idea and aren't sure it's buildable, that's exactly the kind of conversation worth having.
Starter Website
$1,500
A clean, professional one-page website at a fair fixed price. One planning meeting and one revision round. I take on a few of these at a time.
Includes:
- One-page custom website (desktop and mobile)

- Contact form (messages delivered by email)
- One planning meeting (Zoom or in-person) to review goals, layout, and content
- One revision round included
Ongoing Costs:
Ongoing costs (paid directly by you):
- • Domain name: approximately $11/year
- • Hosting: $0/year (hosted on Cloudflare)
Best for: Businesses that know they just need a simple, professional page and want it done well.
Additional revisions or features can be added if needed.

Available for any project as your business grows. Pricing varies based on needs.
- Blog setup and integration
- SEO monitoring (Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools)

Not sure what you need? Most people are not, and that is fine. Tell me what is going on in the business and I will tell you where I would start.

Lyn GardnerAuthor · FloridaI consider Kevin a Godsend. He was able to completely rebuild my website in just a few weeks, giving it a fresh new look and feel, while taking every single one of my needs into account. Rather than like so many others who offer you out-of-the-box clones, Kevin listens and delivers. I highly recommend Kevin Kahn Web Development, but only if you're looking for honesty, professionalism, and endless energy when it comes to delivering the best website he can.

That is where most conversations start, and you do not need to know the answer. Tell me what you are seeing: fewer calls, a competitor who shows up everywhere, or ads you cannot measure. I will look at what you have and tell you what I would do first, even if that is not a new website.
Still have questions? That's what the discovery call is for. Reach out and we'll talk through everything.
