If your phone isn’t ringing, it’s not your workmanship — it’s your web presence.

Most Island trades and local service businesses still rely on referrals, old websites, and the hope that “people will find us.” Meanwhile, younger competitors show up above you on Google, their Google Business Profile is full of reviews, and they’re getting the calls that should be yours.

What’s going wrong (and why it’s not your fault)

  • Your website looks fine… but it loads slow, isn’t built for mobile, and doesn’t drive quote requests.
  • You’re buried in Google search and maps — even in your own town.
  • You’ve tried boosting posts or running ads, but they were confusing, expensive, or just didn’t work.
  • No system for following up with missed calls, quote requests, or old customers.

Our Local Growth System for Vancouver Island businesses

We connect your website, Google presence, and simple automation into one Local Growth Engine, tailored for trades and local service companies.

  • AI-powered website built to turn visitors into calls, quote requests, and bookings.
  • Local SEO pages and Google Business Profile tuned for your exact trades and towns.
  • Simple AI follow-up so missed calls and cold leads don’t fall through the cracks.
  • Clear reporting so you know what’s working — and what to turn up.

Start with a Free Website & Local SEO Audit. We’ll show you exactly what’s costing you local jobs — and how to fix it in the next 90 days.

Tom & Theresa Cahill

Local since 1996. Still here. Still building.

Back in 1996, when most people were just hearing about the internet, we launched one of Vancouver Island’s earliest websites. By 1999, Cahill Web Studio was born — and we’ve been building and marketing sites for Island businesses ever since.

We’re Tom and Theresa Cahill — childhood sweethearts, longtime Campbell River locals, and hands-on owners. We’ve worked with roofers, restoration companies, window cleaners, auto groups, retailers, and professional services across the Island.

We speak trades, not tech. When you work with us, you’re not dealing with a faceless agency in another city. You’re dealing with the people who actually design, write, build, and tune your system.

What you can expect working with us

  • Straight talk, realistic plans, and clear pricing.
  • Work built for real-world crews, not marketing theory.
  • A long-term partner who plans to be here for your next season and the one after that.

What Vancouver Island clients say about working with us

29+ years in business • 200+ Island businesses served • 11+ Island communities

“Cahill Web Studio built us a site that finally shows the scale of the work we do. They handled the project from start to finish and made it easy for our team.”

“Marketing used to feel complicated and expensive. Tom and Theresa gave us a clear plan for our website, SEO, and ads — and they actually answer the phone when we need them.”

— Element Restorations • Campbell River & North Island

“Our site, Google presence, and ads now work together. We can see where our leads come from, and we stay busy in multiple cities without guessing.”

— Peak Window Cleaning • Nanaimo & Duncan

Questions Island business owners ask us all the time

How much does this cost?

Most trades and local service clients start in the $3,000–$7,500 range for a complete website and Local Growth System, depending on how many services and towns we’re targeting. We’ll give you a clear written proposal after your Free Audit — no surprises, no hidden fees.

How long before I see results?

Quick wins can happen in the first 30–60 days — especially if we’re fixing obvious issues or turning on properly-built Google Ads. Strong organic rankings usually build over 3–6 months as Google trusts your site and local pages. We’ll set realistic expectations in your Free Audit.

What if I don’t understand AI or marketing tools?

You don’t have to. We keep your setup simple and do the heavy lifting behind the scenes. The “AI” part is about using smart tools to save time and plug leaks — not turning your business into a tech experiment.

Do you lock me into long-term contracts?

No long-term traps. We typically recommend a 90-day initial phase to build and tune your system. After that, you can continue with monthly support, adjust the plan, or pause — based on results and season.

Can you work with my existing website?

Sometimes. In your Free Audit we’ll show you whether it’s smarter to fix what you have or rebuild. We’re not here to sell you a new site you don’t need — we’re here to build a system that actually produces work.

Let’s see what your website and Google presence could really be doing for you

Your Free Website & Local SEO Audit is a practical, no-pressure look at how your current site, Google Business Profile, and basic systems are helping — or hurting — your local lead flow.

  • A quick technical check of your current website (speed, mobile, basic structure).
  • A snapshot of how you show up in Google search and maps in your main town.
  • A short list of fixes and opportunities for the next 90 days.
  • A simple, written plan and quote — if you want us to help implement it.
