Design & Web SEO & AI Straight Talk

When your best customer searches tonight, will she find you?

I'm Jeane (sounds like Genie) Sumner. Thirty years in design and web taught me one thing the hard way: a prettier website won't grow your business. A findable one will. I teach owners how to get found, and my companies handle it for the ones who'd rather not DIY.

SOUND FAMILIAR?

If you've said any of these out loud, you're in the right place.

  • The person who built my site is gone, and I'm afraid to touch it.
  • We only show up on Google if you search our exact name.
  • I keep hearing about AI search and I have no idea if we're in it.
  • I just want one person I can call who actually answers.

None of that means you're behind. It means nobody ever handed you the map. Which one stung a little? Start there. That's what this site is for.

THE SHIFT

Search changed. Most websites didn't get the memo.

Your next customer might never see page one of Google. She might ask ChatGPT for "a bookkeeper who understands Etsy sellers" and call the first name it gives her.

So it's worth asking: when she asks tonight, whose name comes back?

Here's the good news: the work that gets you recommended by AI is the same disciplined work that gets you ranked in Google. Clean structure, real answers, proof you are who you say you are. I've packaged that work into a six-part framework called Findability OS, and you can start learning it free today.

A beautiful website on page ten of Google is just an expensive business card.

WHERE TO START

Three doors. Which one fits today?

My husband Scott and I built all three. Same standards behind every door. Not sure which is yours? Tell me what's going on and I'll point, even if the door isn't mine.

Learn it yourself.

Findability OS is my framework for getting found in Google and AI, with a 30-day plan you can actually finish. Get started free, in plain English, built for owners rather than developers.

For you if: you have more time than budget right now, and you like knowing how things work.

Have it handled.

Website HQ is my agency. Design, hosting, daily care, and SEO for owners who'd rather run their business than their website. Open your laptop to customers, not warnings.

For you if: you never want to think about updates, backups, or "is my site down?" again.

Level up your marketing team.

Sumner Digital gives in-house teams senior strategy and creative on a flexible retainer. No junior layers, no padded hours.

For you if: your team is good, just stretched, and another full-time hire isn't the answer.

MEET JEANE

The person behind the advice.

I started as a graphic designer: paste-up boards, ink, and a stubborn love of getting type right. I built my first business website in the nineties, when you coded pages by hand and hoped.

Today Scott and I run Website HQ and Sumner Digital from Jacksonville, and our daughter Allie makes it a three-Sumner operation. I sign the front and the back of a paycheck, so when I tell you something will help your business, it's because I've already tested it on mine.

People call me the Tech Genie. The magic is mostly schema markup.

KIND WORDS

From people who'd know.

She will respond to me on Thanksgiving Day at 7am if my WordPress site is down for any reason. She's someone you want in your corner.
