What we do, and how the pieces fit together
Most agencies stop at handing you a website. We build the site on a fast modern stack, then keep working on it: content and SEO that earn traffic month after month, paid campaigns when you need leads sooner, and custom AI agents that take repetitive work off your team.
The work splits into two halves that feed each other. Build covers web design, Shopify, agentic websites, and AI automation. Grow covers SEO and GEO, content, paid media, and the website maintenance and growth retainer that keeps the site earning after launch. A small senior Miami team does all of it.
Eight services, two halves, one team
Build the site and the systems, then grow the traffic and revenue. Each is its own engagement, and most clients start with one and grow into the rest.

PageLyft vs a WordPress agency, a generalist, and hiring in-house
The alternatives a buyer actually weighs, lined up against the things that decide the result: stack, speed, ownership, and who does the work.
| Criteria | PageLyft | WordPress agency | Generalist marketing agency | Hiring in-house |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tech stack | Astro, Next.js, Sanity, never WordPress | WordPress and plugins | Whatever they resell | Whatever you can hire for |
| Page speed | Near-instant, passes Core Web Vitals | Slowed by plugin bloat | Rarely their focus | Depends on the hire |
| Edit your own content | Yes, through Sanity | Possible, often clunky | Usually a request | Yes, if you built it that way |
| SEO and AI-search | SEO plus GEO, built in | Plugin dependent | Usually resold to a third party | Another role to fill |
| AI automation | Custom agents for real workflows | Not offered | Rarely | A specialist hire |
| Who does the work | A senior Miami team, AI-augmented | Varies, often junior | Account managers and handoffs | You manage it |
| What you own | The code, content, and systems | Yours, but tied to plugins | Varies by contract | Everything, plus the payroll |
Most shops are strong in one column. We hold the build and the growth in one senior team, on a stack we believe in.
Who we have built for
Roughly eight years shipping for teams where a launch date does not move and a broken page gets noticed within minutes. Our named, verifiable work includes the Miami HEAT and the LA Clippers in the NBA, accessibility and performance work for Corsair and OriginPC, and CMS work for Azamara Luxury Cruises. We do not borrow metrics or invent case studies.
You own what we build
The site, the content in Sanity, the campaigns, and any AI systems we build transfer to you. We work on open, standard technologies, so there is no proprietary lock-in and no per-change invoice for routine edits.
Your team can run, edit, and extend the work after launch without paying us for the privilege.
Services FAQs
What does PageLyft do?
PageLyft is a Miami-based, AI-first web development and growth studio. We build custom websites and Shopify stores on a modern stack, rank them with SEO and generative engine optimization, run content and paid advertising, and build custom AI agents that automate real business workflows. We never build on WordPress.
Why don't you build on WordPress?
WordPress carries a theme, a stack of plugins, and a database query on every request, which makes sites slower, harder to secure, and more expensive to maintain over time. We build on Astro, Next.js, and Sanity instead. You get pages that load in a fraction of a second, content your team edits without a developer, and a codebase you own outright.
Do I own the website and code you build?
Yes. You own the code and the content outright, and any systems we build around the site transfer to you as well. Your content lives in Sanity, so your team can update pages without waiting on a developer or paying per change. We work on open, standard technologies, so you are never locked into us to run or extend the site.
Can you redesign my existing website?
Yes, and redesigns are where many projects start. We move you off WordPress or a dated builder onto a modern stack, preserve your URLs and rankings through the migration, and hand back a faster site you can manage yourself. We treat your existing search traffic as something to protect, not gamble.
How is AI part of your services?
AI shows up two ways. We use it to design and build sites faster than a traditional shop, which keeps timelines and cost down, and it does the same for the monthly work after launch. We also build it for you, from generative engine optimization that gets you cited in AI answers to custom agents that automate workflows like document review and internal tooling.
How much do your services cost?
Pricing is scoped to the work rather than billed by the hour. A focused website build starts lower than a full redesign with custom AI automation behind it. We price against outcomes such as page speed, search rankings, conversion, and the hours your team gets back, and we send a clear estimate before any work begins. Request a quote and we will scope it for you.
