Our Process | Clear, Simple, and Built for Steady Growth
At HopeSpring Digital, your experience should feel as good as your results. That’s why our process is designed to keep you informed, supported, and confident from the first call to post-launch growth.
We don’t overcomplicate, we communicate.
Here’s how your project flows:
-
We begin with a brief discovery call to understand your goals, target audience, and vision.
You’ll receive a clear contract and your private Client Dashboard, your home base for contracts, uploads, and updates.
-
Once you’ve signed and paid your 50% deposit, you’ll complete a short form, upload your images/logos, and share access to needed accounts. Then we’ll meet for a quick onboarding call to review details, answer questions, and confirm your project timeline before work begins.
-
This is where your site comes to life.
Behind the scenes, we craft your design, write your copy, and perform deep SEO research to ensure your site is optimized for visibility, AI discovery, and conversions.
-
When your site is ready, you’ll see the full version, designed for performance, clarity, and ease of use.
You get one focused revision round where we refine visuals and tone while preserving your site’s optimized structure.
-
Your site goes live, connected to Google Analytics 4 and Search Console, and you receive a guide for setting up Local SEO.
You’ll receive a handoff email listing resources to manage your website and a 30-day performance check-in to keep your momentum strong.
If you signed up for a care or SEO retainer plan, we seamlessly transition you into a monthly program designed to sustain and accelerate your growth consistently over time.
-
SEO isn’t a one-time task, it’s a long-term partnership.
Each month, you’ll receive updates, reports, and video recaps that clearly show your growth.
We build steady, and sustainable visibility.
With HopeSpring, you’ll always know what’s happening, why it matters, and how it’s helping your business grow.
Your Website, Fully Yours
When your website launches, you own it completely, 100%.
Your content and design are all registered in your name, giving you complete control and peace of mind.
Our monthly SEO and maintenance retainers are month-to-month so that you can adjust or pause anytime — no long-term contracts.
Because we build on Squarespace, you’ll also need an active Squarespace subscription to keep your site live.
We’ll help you set it up under your account and even share a discount code for annual subscriptions to save on hosting costs.
At HopeSpring Digital, everything we build stays yours, always.
About HopeSpring Digital
HopeSpring Digital was founded by Caresa, a Minnesota-based web designer and SEO strategist with over 7 years of experience and more than 200 websites built.
At her previous agency, she developed an internal SEO handbook with strategies that helped hundreds of clients grow their online presence. Since then, she has evolved these strategies to be effective with the changing landscape of digital visibility.
Today, HopeSpring helps small businesses across Minnesota and beyond show up, get found, and grow steadily through transparent strategy and thoughtful design.
Why Choose HopeSpring Digital?

You could spend weeks trying to DIY something that looks “good enough,” or pay a big agency thousands for a process that feels impersonal.
At HopeSpring Digital, we’re the middle ground that finally makes sense; professional design and proven SEO, without the complexity, high costs, or confusion.
