Who builds it
Marc N
Founder, SB Website Specialists · Santa Barbara, California
Marc N founded SB Website Specialists to build, fix and rank websites for small businesses in Santa Barbara. He studied marketing at the University of Oregon business school and works from downtown Santa Barbara, on De La Guerra Street.
Background
Marc has been on social platforms since he was twelve, back when that meant blogs and comment sections. That is more than a decade of watching how people find things online, and it shapes how he builds a site. Looking good is the easy part. The hard part is a site that Google ranks, that loads fast on a phone, and that AI assistants like ChatGPT can read well enough to recommend.
Work you can check
- The 2026 Santa Barbara website audit. In September 2026 Marc checked 988 independent Santa Barbara businesses and found that about one in three had a broken website or none at all.
- Buddha Beans Coffee Co. He fixed 661 broken links and got the store passing Google's Core Web Vitals.
How he works
- Every job starts with a free audit, so you see what is wrong before you spend anything.
- You own your domain, hosting and code. Nothing is locked to us.
- No promises of a number one ranking. Nobody can honestly make that promise, and Marc tells clients so.
