FAQ

Everything
you're
wondering.

Fourge is a proprietary website platform purpose-built for local business lead generation — fully managed, with enterprise-grade speed and security built in from day one.

Custom. Every Fourge site is designed and built from the ground up by our team around your business, your market, and your services — not a shared template with your logo swapped in, and not an AI site generator.

Fourge is engineered for speed at the platform level, so pages load faster than sites built on general-purpose builders weighed down by themes and plugins.

Yes. Every site includes enterprise-grade SSL security and hosting, managed and monitored on our end — nothing for you to configure or maintain.

Yes, SEO is built in from day one — on-page, technical, and best-practice setup, so your site is structured to be found from launch.

AEO is Answer Engine Optimization — making sure your business gets found and cited by AI assistants like ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews, not just traditional search.

It engages visitors the moment they land on your site, answers common questions, and captures lead information around the clock — including nights and weekends.

It means your site is built to WCAG accessibility standards so every visitor can use it, including people using screen readers. It's included on every Fourge site by default.

Dedicated pages built around the specific markets and searches your business draws from, rather than one homepage trying to speak to everyone at once.

Sites start at $199/month for a 1-page anchor site, $299/month for up to 5 pages, and $399/month for up to 10 pages. Every tier includes the full platform — hosting, security, SEO/AEO, and the core features described on this page.

Yes. Our standard tiers cover most local businesses, but we also build larger, more complex sites — additional pages, custom functionality, and more. Reach out and we'll scope a plan around what you need.

Yes. As part of the platform, we can set up automated text and email marketing campaigns to follow up with your leads — with proper consent collected up front.

Our support team is 100% US-based and available Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM–5:00 PM Central Standard Time.

No hidden costs. It's one flat price — hosting, SSL, and support included, with no surprise add-ons like you'd hit later with a GoDaddy or Wix plan.

We build for a wide range of local industries — home services, legal, healthcare, real estate, events, veterinary, insurance and financial services, and trade and higher education. If your business serves local customers, we can likely help.

You don't have to — our team handles updates and changes for you. If you'd rather request changes directly, just reach out and we'll take care of it.

Our team monitors and maintains every site we build. If something goes wrong, you contact us and we fix it — you're never left troubleshooting on your own.

Timelines vary by business, but most sites move from kickoff to live in a matter of weeks. We'll give you a specific timeline once we understand your needs.

We handle the heavy lifting. We'll gather the essentials from you — your services, your story, your differentiators — and build out the rest.

That's fine — we'll review what you have and build your new Fourge site to match or exceed it, then help manage the transition.

Yes, e-commerce is supported. Let us know during onboarding and we'll scope your site accordingly.

Fourge is a monthly service, not a one-time purchase — your team can walk you through exactly how the plan works when you get started.
