What is Taiga?

Taiga is a web design, brand, and local SEO studio for health practices and gyms. Named for 大河 (big river) and the boreal forest that never goes dormant, Taiga rebuilds brick-and-mortar businesses' web presence, then compounds it month over month.

One Rebuild ($2,500) resets the foundation: brand, website, and local SEO in one project, delivered in 2–4 weeks. A monthly retainer ($199–$999) then keeps the site ranking on Google, appearing in AI search recommendations, and converting visitors into booked appointments.

Taiga serves chiropractors, dentists, physical therapists, med spas, CrossFit gyms, yoga studios, and boutique fitness businesses across the United States. Every client gets a site built to earn trust in five seconds and to rank on the searches that bring them in.

◦ The problem

Two leaks. Most local businesses have both.

LEAK / 01

A website that looks like 2014

Slow, dated, hard to book from. It makes premium care look cheap. Sends ready-to-buy patients and members to the competitor next door.

LEAK / 02

Invisible when it counts

Someone nearby searches "chiropractor near me" or asks ChatGPT for the best gym in town. You don't come up. The map pack doesn't know you exist.

◦ The new frontier

AI search now recommends local businesses. Is yours getting cited?

Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and Perplexity all pull from the same signals — reviews, website authority, local relevance. Taiga builds both, so you rank in traditional search and get cited by AI.

Born in Japan, raised in Missoula, Montana. I started my first business at fifteen and spent the next decade building startups, co-founding a mentorship platform for founders and investors, and learning — from the inside — what separates the businesses that compound from the ones that stall.

Taiga exists because great local practices and gyms routinely lose patients and members to worse competitors who simply rank first. You get one person, fully responsible, from the audit to launch and every month after. No account manager between you and the work.

What clients say

Dr. Linda, Bloom Chiropractic
★★★★★

We'd been meaning to update our site for two years and never got around to it. Taiga got it done in under three weeks — and not just done, done right. Every revision came back the same day I asked for it. The new site actually reflects what Bloom is: a modern, trusted practice. Our online appointment requests from search went up within the first month. I wish I'd done this sooner.

◦ Why $2,500

You've probably already spent more.
Here's what was different.

Most owners we talk to have already spent $10,000–$20,000 on a site that didn't move the needle. Taiga isn't cheaper because we do less. It's $2,500 because there's no 12-person team billing you for account management meetings.

What you were buying from an agency was overhead. A project manager relaying messages. A designer who hands off to a developer who hands off to an SEO contractor who sends a quarterly report you can't read.

Taiga is one person, fully responsible, start to finish. You talk to whoever is doing the work. Not an account rep. Brand guide in week one. Working site on a cloud link by week two. If it's not right, we fix it. That's the whole model.

◦ Questions

Asked by every owner. Answered straight.

How much does a clinic or gym website cost?

A professional website rebuild with brand and local SEO runs $2,500 with Taiga. Then from $199/month to keep you ranking. Comparable agency work runs $8,000–$20,000 for the website alone, with brand and SEO billed separately.

How long does the Rebuild take?

Most clients are live in 2–4 weeks. Brand guide is ready by the end of week one. A working site is on a private cloud link by week two. Revisions and launch happen from there.

What happens after the 15-minute speed audit?

If it's a fit, you put down $1,250 to kick off. That's 50% of the Rebuild. The remaining $1,250 is due when the site launches. Week one is the brand guide. Week two is a working site on a cloud link. We go from there.

What is AI-search (GEO) optimization?

GEO stands for Generative Engine Optimization. When someone asks ChatGPT or Google AI for "the best chiropractor in town," those tools cite pages that answer questions directly with clean structure. Taiga builds your site that way from day one. You become the recommendation, not your competitor.

What does local SEO include?

Every Rebuild includes Google Business Profile setup and optimization, map-pack positioning, "near me" keyword targeting, location schema markup, and geo-targeted content structure. Growth clients also get active GBP management, a review-generation system, and monthly rank tracking.

How do credits work?

One credit equals one geo blog post or one revision. Credits are used one at a time as you need them. Unused credits roll over one month — so if you don't use December's credit, it carries into January. They don't stack beyond that, which keeps the retainer sustainable on both sides. Need something outside your plan? One-off credits are $199 each — which makes even Roots obviously better math if you need anything regularly.

What is the difference between the three tiers?

Roots ($199/month) is the floor — 1 credit plus hosting and basic GBP upkeep. It keeps you from going fully dark and is the natural downgrade path if you ever need to pull back. Steady ($499/month) is 3 credits: one post or revision per week, roughly, with GBP upkeep included — the natural fit for most chiro and dental practices. Growth ($999/month) is 8 credits plus active GBP management, a review-generation system, rank tracking, and a monthly terrain report. Eight credits is more than most clients ever use in a month — it feels unlimited without the liability of actually being unlimited.

Do I have to sign a long contract?

No. Monthly plans are month-to-month with 30 days' notice. The Rebuild is $1,250 to start and $1,250 at launch. No ongoing commitment required, though most clients stay on retainer because it's where the compounding happens.

Is there a template I can buy and build myself?

Yes — the Taiga Site Template is $500 one time. It includes the complete HTML/CSS site system, the LocalBusiness JSON-LD schema Taiga wires into every client build, FAQ structure pre-formatted for AI citation, and a 40-item Google Business Profile checklist. You own the files forever, no subscription. If you later decide you want the full Rebuild, the $500 credits toward it — so it's never wasted. See everything at taigalocal.com/template.

What is Terrain Monitoring?

Terrain Monitoring is a $99/month stand-alone subscription — no delivery work, no contract. Every month you get a report covering: 5 keyword rankings, map pack position, AI citation status (whether your business is named when someone asks ChatGPT, Gemini, or Google AI for the best in your city), GBP calls, review count, and one plain-English sentence on what moved. It's the audit's second option — for owners who want to stay informed before they're ready to commit to a full rebuild. It's also the natural downgrade path if a retainer client needs to pause. And practically speaking: no rank tracker on the market checks your AI citation status. That check alone is worth the price.

What is a terrain report?

A terrain report is the monthly performance summary included with Growth retainer clients and standalone Terrain Monitoring subscribers: keyword rankings, map pack position, AI citation status, GBP calls, and review count — plus one sentence on what changed and what's next. It shows you exactly where you stand so nothing surprises you.

Do you need to be in my city to work together?

No. Taiga works with health practices and gyms across the United States, fully remote. The speed audit is a video call. Brand work, site builds, and monthly retainer deliverables happen asynchronously with fast turnarounds. Most clients never need an in-person meeting — and many prefer it that way.

What do you need from me to get started?

Very little at the start. The audit requires 15 minutes of your time and your current website URL. If we move forward with the Rebuild, you'll fill out a short intake form, share any existing brand assets, and join one brand call in week one. After that, Taiga handles the rest — you review, approve, and launch.
