The receipts

The work, before the pitch.

Real sites, live right now. Custom-designed, hand-built, and fast on every phone.

Who you actually get

The founder is on every account.

Ben McGinnis, founder of MCG

That is me. You get the founder on your account from kickoff, and a site built for your business alone — not a Divi or Elementor template with your logo dropped in.

Read this before you hire anyone

Corridor business is won on a phone, in a parking lot, in seconds.

A lot of Washington County business is found by someone between jobs on I-70 or I-79, searching on a phone. That customer gives you a few seconds. We build sites that load in under two, look like the most established option in the results, and stay current because changes come back in twelve hours on average.

The usual agency

City pricing, suburban attention

  • Washington County treated as an outlying account
  • A heavy site that crawls on a cell signal
  • A template with your logo dropped into it
  • Run by a coordinator with a checklist once the contract is signed
MCG

  • Custom-designed and hand-built, under two seconds on a phone
  • Built around the area you actually cover, not one municipality
  • Unlimited updates, 12-hour average turnaround, hosting and support in-house
  • The founder on the account, not a coordinator with a checklist

One of the Seven Counties That Make Up the Pittsburgh Metro

Washington County is part of the Pittsburgh metropolitan area proper, not a neighboring region that borrows the name. That matters for search: a business here competes for Pittsburgh-adjacent terms while still owning a distinct local market of its own. MCG builds websites and local SEO strategy around both — the county you actually serve, and the metro you sit inside.

Local search

Search Along the I-70 and I-79 Corridor

Washington sits where I-70 and I-79 cross, which is why so much business here is corridor business rather than strictly neighborhood business. A contractor in Houston serves McMurray, a practice in Canonsburg draws from Peters Township and the South Hills both. We build local SEO around the area a business genuinely covers instead of pinning everything to one municipality and hoping the radius works itself out.

It also means the competitive picture is different from the city's. Washington County searches are less saturated than Pittsburgh proper, so a well-built page here competes against other county businesses rather than against agencies buying their way into a downtown result. That is a materially easier fight, and it converts better.

  • Google Business Profile strategy

    Categories, services, service areas and posts configured for how Washington County customers actually search.

  • Neighborhood-level content

    Pages and sections built around Canonsburg, McMurray, Peters Township and the communities you serve, not a single county-wide keyword.

  • Citation and listing cleanup

    Consistent name, address and phone across the directories that still feed local rankings.

  • Technical SEO foundation

    Speed, crawlability, structured data and mobile performance — the parts that decide whether good content ever gets seen.

Design

A Website Built to Turn a Search Into a Call

A site that looks good and generates nothing is a brochure. Every page we build is designed around the path from search result to phone call — clear structure, fast loading on the phone someone is actually holding, and an obvious next step on every screen.

Pennsylvania is familiar ground. We manage both branches of Voto Manufacturers Sales, in Steubenville and Clarion, PA, and we spent several years as the web and SEO partner for Trinity Anglican Seminary in Ambridge, over in Beaver County, through a stretch of growth that ended with the seminary bringing the work in-house with a full-time hire.

  • Conversion-focused design

    Layouts built around the decision a visitor is trying to make, with the next step never more than a scroll away.

  • Mobile-first performance

    Sub-two-second loads on a phone, because that is where most local searches finish.

  • Premium managed hosting

    Hosting, backups, security and updates handled in-house rather than pointed at a support queue.

  • Unlimited updates and support

    Ongoing changes are part of the engagement, not billed per request.

Questions

Washington County questions, answered

How fast are the sites you build?

Every site is custom-designed and hand-built to load in under two seconds on a phone. After launch, updates are unlimited with a 12-hour average turnaround, and hosting and support are handled in-house.

Have you worked with Pennsylvania businesses before?

Yes. We manage both branches of Voto Manufacturers Sales Co., in Steubenville and in Clarion, Pennsylvania, and we were the web and SEO partner for Trinity Anglican Seminary in Ambridge, Beaver County, for several years. Washington County is the next step east, and it gets the same founder-led work.

Which communities in Washington County do you cover?

The whole county. Most of the work concentrates around Washington itself, Canonsburg, McMurray, Peters Township, Houston, Cecil and out toward Burgettstown, but we build around wherever your customers actually are.

Is ranking in Washington County different from ranking in Pittsburgh?

Considerably. Pittsburgh proper is a saturated search market with regional and national agencies competing for the same terms. Washington County searches are more specific, less contested, and closer to a buying decision — which usually means faster results for less spend.

Can you redesign our existing site rather than starting over?

Usually, yes. Most sites we take over are outdated rather than broken, and we rebuild while preserving what already works — existing rankings, content, and the URLs Google has indexed.

Can we meet in person?

Yes. We sit down in person when a project calls for it — a kickoff, a planning session, a photo shoot — and keep the rest moving by phone, text and email, with changes back in 12 hours on average.
