General

What is AJWN Consulting?
AJWN Consulting is a digital marketing agency based in The Woodlands, TX — in the Greater Houston area — that helps small and medium-sized businesses grow online. We offer web design, SEO, local SEO, social media management, Google Business Profile management, and full digital strategy services to clients across all 50 states.
Do you work with businesses outside of The Woodlands or Houston?
Yes. While we're based in The Woodlands, TX (near Houston), all of our services are delivered remotely. We work with clients in all 50 states. Time zone differences are no obstacle — we communicate through scheduled calls, email, and project management tools.
Do you require long-term contracts?
We don't lock clients into long-term contracts. Our services run month-to-month for ongoing management (SEO, social media, GBP). Project-based work like web design has a defined scope and timeline with payment milestones.
How quickly will I see results?
It depends on the service. Web design launches in 4–8 weeks. SEO shows meaningful improvement in 3–6 months. Google Business Profile optimizations can improve local rankings in 30–60 days. Social media builds momentum over 60–90 days. We set realistic expectations and track progress monthly.
How do I get started?
The best first step is a free consultation call. We'll learn about your business, goals, and current digital presence, then recommend the services that will move the needle fastest for you. No pressure, no pitch — just a conversation.

Web Design

How much does a website cost?
Website projects typically range from $2,500 to $10,000+ depending on scope, but we focus on building sites that pay for themselves — not upselling features you don't need. After a free consultation, you'll receive a clear proposal tailored to your goals, with no surprises.
How long does it take to build a website?
Most website projects are completed in 4–8 weeks from kickoff. Larger or more complex sites may take longer. Rush timelines are available for an additional fee.
Will I be able to update my website myself?
Yes. We build on platforms chosen for ease of management (WordPress, Webflow, or similar). We provide training so your team can make basic content updates without needing to contact us.

SEO & Local SEO

How long does SEO take to show results?
SEO is a long-term strategy. Most clients see noticeable improvement within 3–6 months. Rankings compound over time — the longer you invest, the stronger and more durable your organic presence becomes.
Do you guarantee first-page Google rankings?
No ethical SEO agency guarantees specific rankings — Google's algorithm is not something any agency controls. We guarantee consistent, high-quality work using proven techniques that build sustainable organic visibility.
What is the difference between SEO and Local SEO?
SEO targets broad keywords and national or industry-wide searches. Local SEO focuses on location-based searches — "near me" queries, Google Maps rankings, and the Local Pack. If your customers search for services in a specific city or area, you need Local SEO.
Do you build backlinks?
Yes. Link building is a core component of our SEO service. We use white-hat methods — content-based outreach, digital PR, and partnership links — never paid link schemes that risk Google penalties.

Social Media & Digital Marketing

Which social media platforms do you manage?
We manage Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and X (Twitter). We recommend the platforms that match where your customers actually spend time — not every platform is right for every business.
Do I need to give you content or photos?
We handle content creation — copywriting, graphics, and sourcing visuals. If you have brand photos or product images, great. If not, we work with what's available and build a visual library for your brand over time.
Do you run Google Ads or Facebook Ads?
Yes. Paid advertising on Google (Search and Display) and Meta (Facebook and Instagram) is available as part of our digital strategy packages or as a standalone service. We manage campaigns, creative, and optimization end-to-end.
How do you measure digital marketing success?
We define KPIs at the start of every engagement — typically leads generated, cost per lead, website traffic, and revenue attributed. Monthly reports track these metrics with honest commentary, not just positive spin.

Billing & Pricing

How is ongoing service billed?
Monthly services (SEO, social media, GBP management) are billed on the 1st of each month via invoice or auto-pay. Project-based work (web design) is billed with milestones — typically 50% upfront and 50% at launch.
Do you offer custom pricing?
Yes. Our pricing page shows starting rates for packaged services, but most clients have unique needs. After your consultation, we build a custom proposal tailored to your specific goals, timeline, and budget.
Is there a setup fee?
Some services include a one-time setup fee to cover account creation, audits, and onboarding. This is disclosed upfront in your proposal — no surprise charges.
