Web Design & Digital Marketing Agency for Chicago-Area Businesses
A&B Consulting Group is a web design and digital marketing agency in Burr Ridge, Illinois. We build fast websites and run the search, ads and reputation work behind them — for contractors, distributors and local businesses across the western suburbs and 17 states.
Responsiveness is our whole product.
We're your marketing team, not a vendor. When you call, we answer. When the market moves, we move faster.
One team for the whole system.
Websites, search, ads, reputation and the AI tools that answer when you cannot. Run together, by the same people, so nothing falls between vendors.
We know your trade before day one.
Most of our clients sell something physical to people in a specific radius. The marketing that works for them is not the marketing that works for a SaaS company, and we do not pretend otherwise.
Why one channel on its own rarely works.
The most common thing we are called in to fix is a business paying for one piece of the system and wondering why the phone is quiet. Ads pointed at a site that takes eight seconds to load. A rebuilt site with nothing driving traffic to it. Good rankings and a contact form nobody can find on a phone.
Each piece gets blamed in turn, and each one is working about as well as it can on its own. Search brings people who are already looking. Ads reach the ones who are not yet. Reviews decide which of the three companies in the map pack gets the call. The site has to convert all of it, and something has to answer when the call comes in at seven on a Sunday evening.
We run those pieces as one program with one team accountable for the result. When rankings slip or cost per lead climbs there is no vendor to chase and no finger to point — the people who built your site are the people managing your search presence.
Real numbers from real contractors.
Anonymized case studies from clients across the Chicago metro and beyond.

Discover, build, launch, grow.
No mystery and no four-week silence. You see the work as it happens and you know what comes next.
Discover
We look at what you have before we recommend anything: site speed, what you rank for, where your leads come in now, and what your competitors are doing that you are not. You get the findings whether or not you hire us.
Build
Design and build on our stack, with your content, your service areas, and lead capture wired in from the first day. You see it in progress — no four-week silence followed by a reveal.
Launch
Every old URL mapped to its replacement so the rankings you already have carry over. Tracking is live before launch, not bolted on after, so the first lead is attributed properly.
Grow
Hosting, security and content upkeep, plus the ongoing search and ad work. Reporting shows calls and form fills, not impressions.
Something answers, even when you cannot.
Most missed calls never call back. These are the tools we build and run so an after-hours enquiry still becomes a booked job.

Trained on your services and service area. It answers the question that would otherwise send a visitor to a competitor, qualifies them, and books the appointment rather than leaving a form nobody fills in.

Questions we get asked most.
How much does a website cost?
Our custom builds start at $3,500, with ongoing maintenance from $150 a month. What moves the number is page count, how many service areas you need covered, whether we are writing the content, and what has to connect to it — a CRM, online booking, a product catalog. You get a firm figure before any work starts, not a range that drifts.
How long does it take to build a website?
Four to five weeks from kickoff to launch for a typical build. The part that sets the pace is usually content and photography on your side, not development on ours. Larger builds with a product catalog or custom functionality run longer, and we will tell you that up front rather than discovering it in week six.
Do you do SEO and ads too, or just websites?
Both, and we would rather do them together. A fast site with nothing driving traffic to it sits there. Ads pointed at a slow page waste spend. The combination is what produces calls, which is why we run web design, SEO, Google Ads, reputation and email as one program instead of selling them as separate line items.
Do you work with contractors and roofers?
Yes — it is the core of what we do. Roofing, siding, windows, remodeling, plus the building supply distributors who sell to them. We understand storm-season call spikes, why a lead that comes in at 7pm on a Sunday still needs answering, and why cost per lead matters more than impressions.
Where are you located, and what areas do you serve?
Our office is at 1333 Burr Ridge Pkwy Ste 200-260 in Burr Ridge, Illinois, with a second team in Mexico City. We work across the western suburbs and Chicago in person, and serve clients in 17 states remotely.
Will I own my website?
Yes. The domain, the hosting account and the code are yours. We build on GitHub and Vercel in accounts you can hold the keys to, so if you ever leave you take a working site with you. There is no proprietary builder holding your site hostage.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance?
Yes, from $150 a month. That covers hosting on a CDN, SSL, security and dependency updates, tested backups, content changes, and someone actually watching your analytics and Search Console. The point is that problems get caught in days rather than discovered six months later when leads have quietly dried up.
How do I get started?
Call (630) 277-9683 or send us a message and we will set up a short call. Before you commit to anything we will look at your current site and your search presence and tell you what we would do first. If the honest answer is that you do not need us yet, we will say so.
