A Coast owner's answer
Do You Still Need a Website If You Have a Facebook Page?
If the only place your Ocean Springs or Pascagoula business lives is Facebook, you are one password reset and one algorithm change away from being hard to find. A website you own is the place people land after they search. Facebook is where they might see you later.

What people here actually do
Someone hears a name at work, at church, or on the harbor. They type it into Google. They glance at the map pack. They open a site — or they open a Facebook page that autoplays a reel and hides the hours behind a menu.
On a phone, Facebook is slow to the facts: who you are, what you charge in spirit if not in dollars, whether you look like a real shop. A one-page site can put those facts in one screen.
When Facebook is enough
A pop-up, a hobby, a season of testing an idea — Facebook can carry that. If you are not ready to answer the phone as a business, do not buy a website to look like one.
The line is this: when you would be embarrassed to send a serious customer to Facebook instead of a link, you need the link.
What a one-page site is for
Who you are. What you do. Proof. A number. Hours. That is a $1,500 one-page site, five business days, you own it. You can keep posting on Facebook. You just stop asking Mark's company to be your storefront.
We built that kind of presence for shops that already had a following and still could not send a clean link. Quakes in Ocean Springs is on our case studies page for a reason.
Next step: One-Page Site — $1,500.
