We build it. You own it.

TQD Media builds fast websites and the systems behind them for small businesses and community groups, and can suit nearly any other application under the sun. Your domain, your accounts and your data stay in your name, and we show you how it all works.

Services

Everything a small business needs to show up professionally online.

Pick the services you need. Each one is something we provide and run for ourselves and our clients.

Get found

Fast websites

A quick, clean site in English and Spanish, hosted with no monthly hosting bill.

Local search content

Pages tailored to the services you provide and the customers you want work from, set up so your customers find you.

Brand starter kit

Logo, brand rules, and templates you can use to create cohesive documents and deliver a professional customer experience.

Run the front desk

Front desk setup

A contact form that turns into a lead record, with automatic replies, that easily converts contacts into customers.

Email and domain security

Business email that lands in the inbox and is hard to fake, with your domain's records set up correctly via the provider of your choice.

Small business security checkup

Two-step sign-in, phishing guidance for your team, and a watch for lookalike domains.

Grow on purpose

Growth roadmap

A plain plan for who to go after, in what order, with a working list of targets.

Bid readiness

Registration on public bid portals and a playbook for answering a solicitation without guessing.

Systems and software plan

What to buy, what to skip, and what it will cost each month before you commit to any of it.

Keep the keys

Ownership and handover

Backups of your live site with a restore guide, kept in a shared folder that belongs to you.

AI-ready business hub

One shared place for your business facts and procedures, set up so your own AI assistant can do useful work from it.

How we work

Three principles.

01

You own every account.

Domain, hosting, email, CRM. All of it is registered to you. If we part ways, nothing has to be handed back, because it was always yours.

02

We take the least access we need.

We write down what access we have and why, and nothing is published, spent or changed on your accounts without your confirmation.

03

The goal is that you need us less.

Everything is documented and backed up where you can reach it, so you or your own tools can run it without us.
