About
Built for Portland. Built different.
We created PDX.Business because Portland small businesses deserve better than generic marketing tools and one-size-fits-all advice.
Why we built this
Most small business tools are built for scale, not for community. We took a different approach — starting with the needs of Portland businesses and building from there.
- Local focus — built specifically for Portland-area businesses
- Transparency — your score, your data, your decision
- Data-first approach — every recommendation is backed by real performance data
- No lock-in — start free, upgrade when it makes sense, leave anytime
How we're different
Local Only
We don't serve everyone everywhere. We serve Portland. That focus means better listings, better data, and better support for the businesses that make this city great.
Clarity First
No jargon, no mystery metrics, no upsell pressure. Your Website Health Score tells you exactly where you stand — and what to do about it.
No Lock-In
Start free. Upgrade when you're ready. Cancel anytime. We earn your business every month, not through contracts.

Everything connects through your Website Health Score.
The Club
