Serving Grand Rapids and West Michigan with custom web design, SEO, and long-term digital support. Dog Ear Marketing helps startups and growing companies build websites that feel right and perform where it matters. For nearly a decade, we’ve created custom WordPress sites that attract the right audience, communicate clearly, and hold up over time.
Our custom website builds and re-designs typically include:
Every website project begins with a full site audit (if pre-existing) and competitor analysis.
We learn about the goals you have for your site and its core functions, whether that’s selling, gathering leads or informing.
Web pages are laid out with customer journey in mind. Web design mockups can be provided so you know exactly what design you’re getting.
Since most website traffic now comes from phones, all websites we build are fully responsive and optimized for mobile devices.
We can use existing content or create a messaging strategy that is geared for brand perceptions and target audience engagement.
Your website is published to your domain and hosted on our secure VPS servers. Essential maintenance, backups, security monitoring, and updates are included.
Most websites look good at launch, then fade out. We build sites that keep doing their job: clear structure, fast performance, and SEO built in from the start, not added later.
You own your website. No proprietary systems, no lock-in, no long-term contracts. It’s built on WordPress and it’s yours from day one. We host and maintain everything on secure VPS servers, but you’re never tied to us. If things change, your site goes with you. For small updates like text and images, we'll show you how to handle it yourself. If you’d rather leave it to us, we're here for that too.
Most agencies upload a template and work around it. We don’t.
With your site, everything has a place. Pages and content aren’t there to fill space. They’re built to guide someone from first click to action without friction.
That's why when we say custom, we mean it. Your site is shaped around your business and the people using it, so it stands apart without trying too hard. It’s the kind of site that just makes sense the moment you land on it.

Your website should do more than look good. From design and development to ongoing SEO and search visibility, we help you build momentum that continues after launch.
