The moment that matters

When customers look you up, what do they find?

Lots of great Alaska businesses have a Google listing and good reviews, but no website. That's often the moment a customer taps the next result instead.

Why Sockeye

Small studio. Stubborn about results.

Sockeye salmon swim hundreds of miles upstream to get where they're going. We bring the same persistence to getting your business found.

Sockeye Sites is an Alaskan-owned studio run by Phoenix Perkins. You work with one person who knows your project, answers your emails and keeps your site running, not a call center or a faceless agency.

FAQ

Questions owners ask us

Something else on your mind? Email [email protected] and you'll get a real answer from a real person.

How much does a website cost?

It depends on what your business needs, so we give you a clear quote after a quick look. There's also a monthly option with nothing to pay upfront. Either way, the preview is free.

Is the preview really free?

Yes. We build it first and show it to you. If it's not right for you, you don't owe anything.

How long does it take?

Most sites go live within about a week of saying yes. How fast it goes mostly depends on how quickly we can get your photos and details.

I'm not a tech person. Is that a problem?

Not at all. That's what we're here for. We handle the domain, hosting, setup and updates. You just tell us about your business.

Can I make changes later?

Yes. Send an email with what you want changed, like new hours, prices or photos, and we'll take care of it.

Do I need to meet in person?

No. Everything happens over email and short video calls, so we can work around your schedule, even in peak season.
