Free until you rank — Top 3 in Google Maps + named by AI, or you don’t pay.
Website

A website built for the Map Pack, AI answers, and the customer who actually called.

Your website is the source material Google validates and AI engines quote. Most local sites were built for the old web — pretty pages, no schema, no answers. We rebuild yours as a ranking asset and host it for you. Bundle it with Top3 SEO and AEO and the same 5 keywords drive all three surfaces.

Why this matters

Your site is the silent ceiling on Map Pack and AI ranking.

Google reads it to decide if you belong in the Map Pack

Google Business Profile is the lever, but Google cross-references your website to confirm what you do, where you serve, and whether you exist as a real business. A thin or stale site quietly caps your Map Pack ceiling — no matter how strong your ranking signals are.

AI engines literally read it before they recommend you

ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity pull from web pages to answer "best plumber in Denver" type questions. If your site has no service descriptions, no FAQs, no schema, and no llms.txt, the model has nothing to quote. The competitor with the cleaner site gets named instead.

The customer who actually called expects it to load

67% of local-service searches finish on mobile. If your site takes 4 seconds to load, half the people who clicked are gone before they see your phone number. Top3 sites load in under 1.5 seconds on 4G — measured, not promised.

How it ships

From signup to live in 14 days.

  1. 1

    Map your service + service area

    You give us the keywords you want to win. We map them to service pages, FAQ entries, and structured data fields. One source of truth — your site, your schema, and your ranking work all aligned to the same 5 keywords.

  2. 2

    Draft, review, ship

    We send a Loom walkthrough of your site within 7 days. You mark what to change. Two revision rounds included. Site goes live on your domain (or a Top3 subdomain while DNS migrates) within 14 days of signup.

  3. 3

    Wire to the rest of Top3

    Schema, llms.txt, and NAP all get reconciled with your Google Business Profile. On Complete, the same 5 keywords drive the Map Pack and AI campaigns. One configuration, three surfaces.

  4. 4

    Maintain, measure, expand

    We update copy, add seasonal FAQs, fix anything that breaks, and keep schema valid. You see the same evidence ledger as the ranking customers — what changed, when, and why.

FAQ

What people ask before they buy

Do I need a new website to rank on Maps or AI?
You can rank on the Map Pack without a new site — Top3 SEO works through your Google Business Profile and our device farm, entirely external. AI engines, on the other hand, are heavily influenced by your website content. If your site is thin, slow, or missing schema, even a perfect ranking campaign hits a ceiling. The Top3 Website fixes the ceiling.
What's actually different about a Top3 website vs my current site?
Three things: (1) Structured data — every page ships with LocalBusiness, Service, and FAQ schema in JSON-LD so Google and AI engines can parse what you do, where, and for whom without guessing. (2) An llms.txt file at /llms.txt that tells ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity exactly which pages to cite when answering local-intent questions about your business. (3) The site is built around the same 5 keywords your ranking work targets — same service pages, same FAQs, same NAP — so every surface reinforces the same answer.
What does the $199/mo cover, exactly?
Hosting (commercial-grade, not free-tier), the 6-page site build, schema and llms.txt setup, monthly content + technical maintenance, SSL, and unlimited copy edits. You own the domain. You can export the code at any time. No setup fee, no contract — cancel anytime and we hand you the files.
Why is Top3 Complete $897 and not $996?
Bought separately: Website ($199) + Both — SEO & AEO ($797) = $996/mo. Bundled into Top3 Complete it's $897/mo — $99/mo off — because your 5 keywords drive the site structure, the Map Pack work, and the AI work from one configuration. No extra onboarding, no duplicate keyword research.
How does billing work on Top3 Complete?
Two clocks. The website portion ($199 of the $897) starts billing when your site goes live — typically 14 days after signup. The ranking portion ($698 of the $897) is $0 until your business actually wins on Maps or AI for one of your 5 keywords. The full $897/mo only kicks in after both events have happened. You'll see the exact dates in your account before any charge.
Can I keep my current domain?
Yes. We migrate DNS to point at the new site while preserving your domain. If you're mid-migration we'll temporarily host at a Top3 subdomain so you can review before flipping the live record. Email, MX records, and any existing redirects come with you.
What happens to my old site?
You keep it. We don't touch your existing site until you approve the new one. Once live, we set up 301 redirects from old URLs to the corresponding new ones so existing links, citations, and Google Business Profile attributes don't break.
Will this site be unique to my business or a template?
Each Top3 site uses the same underlying architecture (Next.js, the same schema and llms.txt patterns) — that part is intentional, because it's the part Google and AI engines reward. Your copy, design accents, photos, services, FAQs, and service-area pages are written for your specific business. No "Lorem ipsum," no stock-photo plumbers.
What if I want a feature you don't offer (booking widget, online store)?
The 6-page Top3 site is the core. We integrate booking (Calendly, Acuity), call tracking (CallRail), reviews (Google Reviews API or BirdEye), and basic e-commerce (Stripe Payment Links) on top, billed at our cost. We don't do full custom apps — that's where you should hire a development shop.
I already have a great website. Just sell me the ranking work.
Done. SEO is $497/mo. AEO is $497/mo. Both is $797/mo. None of those touch your website. See the standalone pricing on the pricing page.
Can I cancel and keep the site?
Yes. The code is in a git repository tied to your account. On cancel you receive a tarball of the site, a deploy guide, and 30 days of read-only access to the hosting dashboard so you can migrate. You keep the domain regardless.
