I'm Rachel Nesbitt, and Open Tree Creative is my Squarespace web design studio in Concord, NH. I build websites for New Hampshire businesses, nonprofits, schools, and churches with local SEO, clear copy, and a professional look, designed to turn a local search into a call, an inquiry, or a donation.
[ Who I work with in NH ]
Local Service Businesses
When someone in Concord, Manchester, or Keene searches for what you do, your site needs to tell Google where you work. I build your service area and towns into the page structure from the start.
Home Builders & Remodelers
A portfolio that shows the quality of your work, the towns you build in, and a simple way for homeowners to ask about their project.
Nonprofits & Independent Schools
Donors, volunteers, parents, and the people you serve all come to your site for different reasons. I organize it so each of them finds their next step, and so your small team can keep it current.
Churches & Ministries
People decide whether to visit your church before they walk in the door. I build sites that make that first visit feel easy and keep events, giving, and ways to serve simple to find.
Why aren't New Hampshire customers finding you?
If you're not getting much traffic from Google or AI search, it may boil down to these three reasons: Google can't tell where you work, the copy doesn't speak to the people in your area, or the site doesn't give a local visitor a reason to trust you.
Recent Work in New Hampshire
The Living Room, Henniker
The Living Room is a prayer and retreat space in Henniker. Its old site was a generic template that didn't reflect the place. I gave it a new brand, a custom Squarespace design, navigation built around its rooms, and the local SEO basics so people nearby can find it.

New Hampshire clients, in their own words.
From clients in Nashua, Henniker, Concord, Merrimack, and Raymond.
Rachel at Open Tree Creative has been our website designer here at Nashua Christian Academy. We have found her to be creative and intuitive in getting to know our organization and representing us faithfully on the web. She is extraordinarily responsive in providing requested updates or changes to our web site. Most notably, we regularly receive business (and compliments in that context) based on our site. I would heartily recommend her for businesses wanting to be noticed and seeking to better reach their online target audience.
Open Tree Creative/Rachel did our nonprofit organization's Internet presence (website, social media, email, graphic design), and she excelled at all of them! She is hard working, reliable, and has a good eye for design.
Without hesitation, I recommend her for any web design work you may have.
Rachel is very professional. I employed her services when I was President of a non-profit organization. The website she developed for the non-profit is professional and of the highest caliber. She was quick to respond when I had a question or when I wanted to discuss a new project. She is professional, friendly, and industrious. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her services!
30 minutes with me. Bring your questions.
Hi, I'm Rachel. I build websites from Concord.
I've built websites for over 20 years and started Open Tree Creative in 2010. Today I work from Concord with New Hampshire small businesses, nonprofits, schools, and churches, plus clients across the US.
My motto is simple: your success is my success. I want to build a site you love, but it also has to do something. Every site I build is designed to bring in calls, inquiries, and donations, so I handle your strategy, copy, design, and local SEO myself, from the first call to launch.
- Based in Concord, NH, working across the state
- One person from the first call to launch
- Local SEO set up on every build
- Squarespace Circle member with training in web accessibility and SEO
New Hampshire questions, answered.
What NH businesses and nonprofits ask before reaching out. If yours isn't here, ask me directly.
No. I'm based in Concord and a lot of my work is in New Hampshire, but I work with organizations across the US by video call.
Every site I build includes local SEO basics: page titles and descriptions with your service and town, LocalBusiness schema, and a clear service area. That gives you a solid SEO foundation from day one.
Ranking well on Google and in AI search is an ongoing, long-game strategy, though. It builds over time with fresh content, steady reviews, and an active Google Business Profile. If you want help keeping things moving after launch, a monthly support plan keeps your site current.
It depends on who you hire and what's included. My Full Build websites start at $5,000 and include strategy, copywriting, design, and SEO. Foundation sites start at $2,000 if your branding and copy are ready.
Page count, copywriting, and features like booking or donations move the price the most. I break it down in How Much Does a Small Business Website Cost in 2026?
Yes. Nonprofits and churches are a big part of my work, including The Living Room in Henniker. I build sites a small staff or volunteer team can update without a developer. See nonprofit web design and church and ministry web design.
Yes. Many projects start with an outdated site. I rebuild it in Squarespace, keep the content that's working, and set up redirects so you don't lose the search traffic you already have.

You can build a website yourself, and Squarespace makes that easier than ever. But a site that brings in work takes more than a template. It needs SEO so people can find you, AEO so AI search tools can understand your business, accessibility so everyone can use it, brand strategy so it sounds like you, and a layout built to turn visitors into calls and inquiries.
That's a lot to learn while running your business, and it's exactly what I do. My motto is simple: your success is my success. I want you to love your website, and I want it to actually do something for your business.
