About Us:
SearchActions is a global team of friends that have come together to build, manage and grow websites at an affordable, monthly rate for hundreds of small businesses. Founded in 7 years ago in West Chester, PA by Cam Fulton and Tom Barrett, SearchActions was created out of the belief that every small business deserves to have a beautiful, kick-ass website that attracts new customers, grows with the business, and ultimately, changes the lives of the people that make it special.

Our Mission:
Create kick-ass websites that change people’s lives

Giving Back:
As our mission says, our goal is to change people’s lives. One way we’re able to accomplish this is by providing free or discounted service, support, and consulting services to some awesome non-profits including the Police Athletic League, Believe and Achieve Foundation (Matt Ryan’s non-profit), SERI (Sustainable Electronics), and the Young Men and Women in Charge Foundation (YMWIC).

What We Do and Our Service:
For one affordable monthly payment, our clients get a custom website, ongoing support, and everything needed to keep it online, running fast, and bringing in fresh, new customers. Plus, the flexibility to cancel at any time. Together, our web development and internet marketing services are designed to make it easier for our clients to be found and generate leads/revenue online.

– Is passionate about building websites and solutions that help businesses grow and solve unique problems

– Doesn’t need someone else to check their work – they get it done right the first time
– Is a problem solver – when presented with a problem you can figure out a solution on your own, no matter how long it takes
– Is driven by helping others – to you, nothing is better than when a customer or teammate raves about your work
– Always thinks upstream – instead of fixing the same issue every day, you look for a way to prevent the issue from happening again
– Owns their mistakes
– Takes pride in the quality and craftsmanship of your work rather than just doing it to get it done.
