Jonah Chegarnov

I'm Jonah. I run ChegTech from Auburn, WA — a one-person web design and SEO agency for local service businesses across Greater Seattle. I started it in June 2025 because I kept watching small businesses get stuck with the same two bad options: a stale template site nobody can update, or a $15,000 agency bill they can't afford and don't need.

I finished my B.S. in Computer Science at Bellevue College in 2025. Before ChegTech, I wrote software for Pierce County's Financial Department — specifically the Medical Examiner Applications used by the county. I also worked with bitlearns.com, a Brazil-based AI-assisted lecture creation tool for teachers, where I helped build out their analytical dashboard during a 9-month capstone project. Both projects taught me that real software isn't the impressive demo — it's the boring infrastructure that has to work every single day for someone who doesn't care about your tech stack.

I've built or rebuilt 7+ websites so far. Pinnacle Air Control, an HVAC company in South Hill, went from an average Google rank around 70 to 9 in four months after I rebuilt their site. IGo Green Enterprises, a glass installation business in Seattle, landed a $20,000 job within weeks of launch after I rebuilt their dated website. Velare Remodeling and Restoration, a Bonney Lake general contractor, went from invisible to booked inside two months including build-to-launch time.

Every project is end-to-end. I do the design. I write the code. I set up the SEO and the Google Business Profile. I handle the ongoing maintenance. There are no subcontractors and no account managers — when something breaks at 8pm on a Saturday, you text me. That's why I can charge $2,000 for a custom site instead of $15,000. It's not a discount. It's the actual cost of the work when there's no agency overhead in the middle.

I built ChegTech for the local service businesses already winning on the ground — the contractors, the trades, the auto dealers, the restaurants, the real estate agents — who deserve a website that matches the quality of their actual work. That's the only mission.
