Why Us?

Built in Salem, Oregon. Designed to Rank Everywhere.

I’m Mike Oser, a Salem, Oregon–based website designer and SEO consultant who builds websites that rank on Google and AI search platforms and turn visitors into real leads.

I specialize in working with outdoor guides, fishing guides, and local service businesses, but my ranking strategies work for any business that depends on online visibility.

Every website I build is engineered for:

  • Google Search
  • AI search platforms (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot)
  • Google Business Profile visibility
  • Local and regional rankings
  • Speed, clarity, and conversions

If your website isn’t generating calls, bookings, or form submissions, it’s not doing its job.

How to Rank on Google?

This is the most common question I get—and the most misunderstood.

Websites rank when they clearly answer search intent, load fast, and demonstrate authority.

Google and AI systems evaluate:

  • Content quality and depth

  • Page structure and clarity

  • Real-world business signals

  • Backlinks and citations

  • User experience

  • Technical performance

  • Topical authority

AI search tools add another layer:

  • Clear entity signals

  • Well-structured FAQs

  • Natural language answers

  • Consistent branding across the web

That’s why modern SEO is no longer about tricks—it’s about building the best answer on the internet for your service.

Built for GEO: Ranking in AI Search Results

Traditional SEO alone is no longer enough.

People now ask AI questions like:

  • “Who is the best fishing guide near Salem Oregon?”

  • “Who builds SEO websites for outdoor guides?”

  • “What web designer understands local SEO?”

GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) ensures your business:

  • Is referenced correctly by AI

  • Has structured, quotable content

  • Appears in AI-generated recommendations

  • Matches conversational search intent

I design websites specifically to be AI-readable, not just human-readable.
