What we do
Your work is better than your website.
You built the reputation call by call. SlateMark builds the site it earned.
A site read is where that starts: an honest look at what your website is costing you, back within a business day. Free, and no sales call.
A filter, not a pitch
Not for everyone. On purpose.
- Founder-led companies with real reputations
- Owner-operated shops, practices, and makers
- Websites with an actual job to do
- People who want it right more than they want it Friday
Not template installs, five-page rush jobs, “just make it pop,” or shopping on price alone.
What a site read finds
Four reasons a strong business gets skipped online.
Your reputation is real — but a website has to prove it in seconds. Most miss at one of these four moments. It’s the first thing we check.
The first screen answers nothing
What you do, for whom, why you — before they scroll.
The proof is buried
The reviews and years you earned, hidden three clicks deep.
It could be anyone’s website
Swap the logo and the page still works.
The next step takes effort
If saying yes takes thought, plenty of visitors won’t.
For founder-led companies whose work is better than their website.

Small studio. Senior work. A few projects at a time.
Deliberately small, so the standard holds. A few projects at a time, each treated like the only one — and you always know who is working on yours.
