Fivenson Studios designs and builds websites for businesses in Grand Rapids, Michigan, serving the Kent County market from their Ann Arbor headquarters with 14+ years of experience and 129+ five-star reviews.
A fit if you recognize your business in any of these.
Business owners whose website is more than three years old and no longer reflects where the business is today
Companies getting traffic but not getting leads, and suspecting the site is the problem
Startups going to market for the first time who need a professional online presence before launch day
Service businesses that live and die by phone calls and form submissions
Your website is often the first real impression a Grand Rapids customer forms of your business, and it works for you every hour of every day. A site built more than three years ago rarely reflects where your company is now, and a design that looks dated or loads slowly quietly costs you the leads it was meant to earn. Good website design fixes that at the foundation: a clean structure, a clear message, and pages built to guide people toward action.
We design and build custom sites from scratch, shaped around your brand, your goals, and the customers you actually serve. That means fast performance, a layout your team can update after launch, and a professional presence that feels like your business, not a template. The outcome is a digital foundation you own, one that carries its weight in leads and credibility instead of just sitting online.
We design every Grand Rapids site from scratch around your goals and customers, so your business stands out instead of blending into a template. The result feels distinctly yours, from the first screen to the final call to action.
We optimize for speed and build on WordPress or a CMS your Grand Rapids team can update after launch. Faster pages keep visitors engaged and turn more of them into leads, and you stay in control of your own content.
Every project ships with a clean site structure, schema markup, and Search Console setup built in, so your Grand Rapids business owns a durable digital foundation. You stay with us because the work earns it, never because you are locked in.
Every website design project tailored to the unique needs of Kent County businesses.
Built from scratch around your brand, your goals, and your customers. No templates, no cookie-cutter layouts. Just a site that looks and works the way your business needs it to.
Easy for your team to manage after launch. We build on platforms that give you control without needing a developer every time you want to change a phone number or add a blog post.
Fast sites rank better and convert better. We optimize every build for Core Web Vitals and mobile performance from the start because slow pages lose customers.
On-page SEO, schema markup, site structure, and Search Console setup included on every project. You should not have to pay extra to be findable on Google.
Grand Rapids is home to roughly 199,000 residents and about 12,000 businesses across Kent County, a competitive market where a polished, well-built website is often what separates the companies people trust from the ones they scroll past.

Free consultation · no pressure, no obligation. We'll show you exactly what we'd do for your business.
Straight answers before you get started.
Pricing depends on the size of the site, the features you need, and how much custom design and development is involved. A simple, professional presence costs far less than a large site with custom functionality. The best next step is a short consultation so we can scope your Grand Rapids project honestly and send a clear proposal, with no pressure attached.
Most custom sites take a few weeks to a couple of months from kickoff to launch, depending on how many pages you need and how quickly content and feedback come together. We share a realistic timeline up front so your Grand Rapids team knows what to expect. Rushing a build tends to cost more later, so we plan the work to be done right the first time.
Yes. We build on WordPress and other content management systems specifically so your team can manage the site after launch without needing a developer for every change. We also walk your Grand Rapids staff through how everything works. You own the site and stay in control of your own content.
If your site is more than three years old, it often no longer reflects where your business is today, and design and performance standards have moved on. Many Grand Rapids owners come to us getting traffic but not enough leads, and the site is usually part of the problem. A consultation will tell you whether a refresh or a full rebuild makes the most sense.
We are a growth infrastructure partner, based in Michigan and building websites since 2012, and we design every site from scratch rather than dropping your name into a template. We focus on outcomes like leads, clarity, and credibility, not just how the site looks. And we build so your business owns and controls its foundation for the long term.
Slow pages frustrate visitors and cost you leads before people ever read your message. We optimize performance and speed so your Grand Rapids site loads quickly and keeps customers engaged. A faster site simply converts more of the visitors you already have.
Yes. We build for healthcare practices, manufacturers, technology companies, craft breweries, and service businesses across Kent County and nearby Wyoming, Kentwood, and Walker. Every project is shaped around your specific customers and goals rather than a one-size-fits-all layout. That is how the finished site feels genuinely like your business.
Absolutely. Startups going to market for the first time need a professional online presence in place before launch day, and that is one of the things we do best. We help you establish a clean, credible foundation from day one. That way your Grand Rapids business makes a strong first impression from the moment you open.
Every project includes custom design and development built around your brand, a WordPress or CMS build your team can manage, performance and speed optimization, and an SEO foundation with on-page SEO, schema markup, clean site structure, and Search Console setup. You get a complete, launch-ready site. We scope the exact deliverables together during your consultation.
Start with a consultation. We will talk through your goals, your customers, and what your current site is or is not doing, then send a clear proposal with scope and timeline. There is no pressure and no obligation, just an honest conversation about building a website that moves your Grand Rapids business forward.
