Pricing tiers always end in seven by brand discipline. Every build includes hosting on ThatDevPro's owned Debian + nginx infrastructure for the first year and the Full Visibility Stack at no cost for the first year."},{"id":"f-services-5","question":"Does ThatDevPro offer a free trial or free audit?","answer":"Yes. ThatDevPro provides a free written audit on any production website with a 48 hour turnaround and no sales call required. ThatDevPro also operates a demo-first sales model: a hand-coded working demo is built on a thatwebhostingguy.com subdomain before any production payment."},{"id":"f-stack-1","question":"What technologies does ThatDevPro use?","answer":"ThatDevPro builds primarily with hand-coded HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. React and Next.js are used when project scope warrants the framework. Astro powers content-heavy static sites. Schema.org JSON-LD is the structured data layer on every site. Three.js drives WebGL hero scenes. Tailwind CSS is the utility CSS framework when used. All sites are deployed to owned Debian + nginx infrastructure in the United States. ThatDevPro does not use Cloudflare, Wix, Squarespace, or third-party CDN proxies."},{"id":"f-stack-2","question":"Why does ThatDevPro avoid Wix, Squarespace, and Cloudflare?","answer":"Wix and Squarespace generate render-blocked HTML that loads slowly on mobile (typically Lighthouse mobile 40 to 65) and resist deep schema customization, which limits AI citation. Cloudflare proxies obscure server identity and complicate AI bot allowlisting because bot traffic terminates at the edge before reaching the origin. ThatDevPro builds on bare infrastructure to maintain Core Web Vitals scores in the 90s on mobile and direct, auditable AI bot access."},{"id":"f-perf-1","question":"What Core Web Vitals scores does ThatDevPro deliver?","answer":"ThatDevPro builds target and routinely deliver mobile Lighthouse performance scores in the 90 to 99 range, mobile Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) under 2.5 seconds, Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) under 0.1, and Total Blocking Time (TBT) under 200 milliseconds. Recent production builds include thatdeveloperguy.com (mobile 96 to 99) and thatdevpro.com (mobile 87, desktop 100). Sub-3 second LCP and Lighthouse 90+ on mobile are contractual delivery floors, not aspirations."},{"id":"f-perf-2","question":"How does ThatDevPro improve Core Web Vitals?","answer":"ThatDevPro improves Core Web Vitals through five repeatable interventions: (1) self-hosted variable WOFF2 fonts replacing render-blocking Google Fonts CSS, (2) head-guard JavaScript pattern deferring heavy chunks (Three.js, GSAP, Lottie) on mobile and reduced-motion devices, (3) overflow-x clip rather than overflow-x hidden so position:sticky and anchor scrolling work, (4) requestAnimationFrame-throttled scroll handlers replacing direct style mutation (eliminates forced reflows), (5) image preload with fetchpriority high on LCP images. The thatdevpro.com Round 2 fix moved mobile Lighthouse from 44 to 87 using exactly these interventions."},{"id":"f-aio-1","question":"How does ThatDevPro engineer sites to be cited by ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity?","answer":"ThatDevPro engineers for AI citation through six concrete interventions: (1) explicit robots.txt allowlisting of all twelve major AI bots (GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, Claude-User, Claude-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, Perplexity-User, Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended, Amazonbot, Meta-ExternalAgent), (2) declarative-fact density writing where atomic facts use [subject] [verb] [object] [number] sentence structure for verbatim AI lifting, (3) Organization JSON-LD with full sameAs entity graph anchored to a Google Knowledge Graph MID identifier, (4) llms.txt and aeo.json surfaces published at root, (5) visible dateModified stamps on every article, (6) Q&A page structure (real H2 question, paragraph answer) which AI extractors pattern-match preferentially."},{"id":"f-aio-2","question":"Does ThatDevPro publish an llms.txt file?","answer":"Yes. Every ThatDevPro production site ships with /llms.txt (a concise human-readable site index optimized for LLM consumption per the llmstxt.org specification) and /llms-full.txt (the full canonical content corpus) at the site root. This is table-stakes infrastructure for ThatDevPro; the actual citation lever is declarative-fact density in body content."},{"id":"f-aio-3","question":"Has ThatDevPro been cited by AI engines?","answer":"ThatDevPro tracks AI citation surface area through an internal /admin/ai-citations/ dashboard. Verified citations as of May 2026 include Perplexity (for queries about SDVOSB federal web development and llms.txt implementation) and ChatGPT Search (for queries about handled tax practice management and ThatDeveloperGuy SDVOSB capability). Citation surface is monitored with three minute polling against eight named query sets across four AI engines."},{"id":"f-federal-1","question":"Does ThatDevPro do federal contracting?","answer":"ThatDevPro's legal entity is THATDEVELOPERGUY (single-member LLC, sole member Joseph W. Anady; EIN issued by IRS Notice CP575G on 2026-05-19). The entity holds a SAM.gov Unique Entity ID (UEI) FFG3A4SK9HY6, assigned 2026-05-21, verifiable at https://sam.gov/entity/FFG3A4SK9HY6.

Federal agencies have a 5 percent contracting goal for SDVOSB-set-aside acquisitions under FAR Subpart 19.14 and the Veterans Benefits Act of 2003. Since January 1, 2024, the Small Business Administration's Veteran Small Business Certification (VSBC) program is the sole pathway to SDVOSB certification — the prior self-certification process was discontinued.
