“They built my site before most of the internet existed — and kept it running ever since.”— Cecil Porter, Cecil Porter Studios · client 20+ years
Post from your phone — it’s live on your site seconds later.
Post once. We do the rest.
You post to Instagram like you always do. From that one post we feed your gallery and a blog so Google sees fresh work on your site, syndicate to the TattooNOW Network, and schedule it across every channel — and every one of them routes people back to a single consult form.
You post once.
“Going down the back strip on Adam’s coverup sleeve. Love…”
A backlink from a domain Google has trusted since 2000.
Every platform sends people back to one form on your site— not a DM you’ll lose.
One post in, everywhere at once, every lead back to one place. No other web developer can offer that.
A website isn't a marketing tool — it's what every ad stands on.
Before you spend a dollar on paid traffic, your work has to live somewhere you control, inquiries have to land in a real inbox, and you have to show up when someone in your city searches. We’ve been getting that foundation right for tattooers since 2000 — and every TattooNOW site ships with the essentials baked in. Nothing to bolt on later, nothing to regret.
A portfolio that honors the work
High-resolution galleries, sorted by style, with a dedicated page for every piece — a real, client-facing site that presents your work at the caliber you actually tattoo at.
Qualified inquiry forms
Custom intake forms that ask the right questions upfront, route straight to your CRM, and cut the back-and-forth before it starts.
Your brand, dialed in
A visual builder with proven looks, theme presets, and section controls — so your site matches your work, not a generic template. We set it up; you fine-tune.
Up since websites existed
We don't outsource your uptime to someone we've never met. Our platform has been live for over 25 years, with SEO, schema, and mobile-first speed baked into every site. We'll be live for 25 more.
From your Instagram to live — a template in 48 hours, custom in 1–2 weeks.
No homework, no months-long agency runaround. Four steps, and we do the heavy lifting while you keep tattooing.
- STEP 1Kickoff callA 30-minute call, not homework. We need your Instagram handle, a short bio (we’ll help), your shop location + contact, and how you want your work sorted.
- STEP 2We start from your InstagramEither way, we pull your existing posts, set up galleries with style tagging, wire your inquiry form to your inbox, and bake in SEO. Template sites are ready fast — then you fine-tune the colors, logo, and branding. Custom sites add the human touch: a designer shapes the layout and brand around your work.
- STEP 3You reviewWe hand over a private preview link. Tweak the copy, swap images, dial in your branding — then approve it when it’s right.
- STEP 4Launch — live on the networkYour site goes live and syndicates to tattoonow.com from day one. A template site is live in about 48 hours; a custom artist or studio site in 1–2 weeks.
What actually changes once this is running.
Features don't matter. Outcomes do. Here's what working tattooers and shop owners tell us they notice 12 months after launching a TattooNOW site.
Someone searches your style in your city — and finds you
BeforeA client three towns over is searching “realism tattoo near me” right now. They scroll the algorithm and land on whoever paid for ads — never you.
AfterYour site ranks for your styles and your city, syndicated to a domain Google has trusted since 2000. The person already looking for your work finds your work — not a feed, not an ad.
Your work finally looks as good as it is
BeforeYour best pieces live in a compressed Instagram grid, three-across, buried under last week's stories and a “link in bio.”
AfterA real portfolio — high-resolution, sorted by style, built to present the caliber of what you actually do. The work sells the work, and it brings in clients who are ready for bigger projects.
You own your name online — for good
BeforeYour whole presence is rented. An algorithm change, a wrong-flag ban, a feature that quietly disappears — and years of audience go with it.
AfterYour domain, your site, your content — yours. Platforms come and go; the foundation under your name stays put. Our longest-running sites have been live for 20+ years.
New work shows up on Google in hours, not months
BeforeYou post a piece you're proud of. Forty-eight hours later it's gone — scrolled past, un-searchable, working for no one.
AfterThat same post lands in your gallery and a blog, indexed fast through the network, and keeps pulling in searches long after the feed forgot it. Your site works while you sleep.
A website that grows with your career.
We're not here to sell you a stack of tools you'll never open. We're here for the long arc of a tattoo career — and your site grows into whatever each stage needs. Most of our 20-year clients started with just a website. Tap a stage to see how.
- Rank on Google for your styles and your city — searchers find your work, not someone else’s ad.
- Every Instagram post syndicates to the 25+ year TattooNOW network: more eyes, more trusted backlinks.
- A fast, mobile-first site that turns a visitor into an inquiry instead of a bounce.
- New work indexed in hours, so your portfolio keeps selling while you sleep.
Everyone has galleries and booking.
Compare what they can’t build.
Skip the checkbox features every platform shares — here’s the foundation underneath, and how each tool actually stacks up.
We don’t fight the marketplaces — we point them at you.
Tattoodo, INKsearch & co. are spokes — claim them as free backlinks pointing home. Your TattooNOW site is the hub that keeps the equity.
Artists who never have to think about their website.
Not our words — theirs. Working tattooers and shop owners on what it’s actually like to run a TattooNOW site for years. No hype, no made-up “300% more bookings” — just the people still here.
“These guys built my site before most of the internet existed and they've kept it running ever since. I've outlasted three booking apps, two Instagram redesigns, and a decade of agency promises. My site is still here. And so are they.”
“We've been with TattooNOW since before most of my clients were born. They've rebuilt the site for me three times as the web changed, and I've never had to think about it. That's the whole deal — they keep the foundation sound so I can focus on the work.”
“Gabe has helped me keep my sanity as a shop owner with the tools he's created. I'd recommend TattooNOW to anyone that wants to take control of their shop, their client communications, and their marketing. You're always there when I need you.”
We’re tattoo people who learned the web — not a web agency that discovered tattooing.
For nearly three decades we’ve been immersed in this world: we’ve owned studios, run conventions, and today we consult for artists worldwide. The platform fits how you actually work because we’ve lived every side of it. Learn more from the years past →
Our mission: help tattooing leave the longest-lasting positive impact it can on humanity.
Tattooing turns meaning into something you carry for life. We make the web see it — your work, found and understood.
The craft never stops moving, and neither does the web. We’ve re-platformed artists across every era since 2000 — and we’ll carry you across the next one.
A tattoo is forever. So is the foundation under your name online — we keep it running for decades, not quarters.

Answers to what every tattooer asks.
Why can't I just use Instagram?
Instagram is a feed; your website is a business. A post disappears in 48 hours and reaches whoever the algorithm decides — a website is your permanent storefront, searchable on Google, owned by you, and working while you sleep. The artists calling us for help now are the ones who told us a few years ago they didn't need a site.
How are you different from Squarespace or Wix?
Squarespace and Wix are built for restaurants and photographers. They don't understand tattoo style taxonomies, they don't sync to Instagram correctly, and they can't syndicate your portfolio to a domain Google has indexed since 2000. You can launch on our platform today and inherit 25+ years of network authority — that's not buyable any other way.
What am I actually paying $49/mo for after the build?
Three things working in the background, every day: hosting on a platform that's been continuously live since 2000, syndication so every new post gets indexed on tattoonow.com alongside your own domain, and content automation so your Instagram posts flow into your site, GBP, and the network tagged and SEO-optimized. Cancel any time, no penalty. The annual plan ($499/yr) saves you about three months.
Do I own my domain and content?
Yes. 100%. You own the domain, every photo, every bio, every inquiry. We host and maintain — we don't hold your content hostage. If we vanished tomorrow your domain and content would still be yours. This isn't a walled garden.
What happens if I ever leave TattooNOW?
You take your domain and content. We'll do a clean transfer to whatever host you want, no drama. You'd lose the syndication to tattoonow.com and the content automation — both are ours. Your site keeps running. Our longest sites have been live continuously for 20+ years; we'd rather build trust than lock you in.
How long until I actually show up on Google?
Two answers. Your syndicated portfolio on tattoonow.com starts ranking immediately because tattoonow.com already ranks. Your own domain builds authority over 6–18 months of consistent posting, which is why the content automation matters. Most clients see measurable organic traffic within 3–6 months.
How long does it take to build, and what do you need from me?
2–4 weeks for an artist site, 4–6 weeks for a studio. We need your Instagram handle, a short bio (we can help), your shop location + contact info, and a preference for style or service categorization. That's it — we pull photos from what you've already posted. Onboarding is a 30-minute call, not homework.
What happens when an artist joins or leaves my studio?
New artists get their own page inside your studio site within 24–48 hours of handover — portfolio syncs from their Instagram, bio goes live, inquiry form routes to you. Artists who leave get their page archived (not deleted) so past work stays discoverable on tattoonow.com — protects your studio's SEO from the 404 penalty.
