Our Story
Built in Detroit.
Built for the Fight.
The Webguys was founded on a simple observation: local businesses were being left behind by a digital marketing industry that favored big budgets over real results. Anthony Pettygrue, a Metro Detroit entrepreneur with over 20 years of experience in digital strategy, started The Webguys to change that equation.
What began as a web design and SEO shop evolved into a full-stack AI-powered growth platform. As Google's algorithm shifted toward local intent, and as AI search engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overview began reshaping how people find businesses, The Webguys adapted — building the systems, the tools, and the strategies that put local businesses at the top of every search result that matters.
Today, operating under ORCA Holdings Co., The Webguys serves businesses across Metro Detroit and nationwide — delivering Map Pack dominance, AI automation, and the kind of transparent, data-driven marketing that actually moves the needle for local and regional businesses from coast to coast.
Transparency First
We show you exactly where you rank before we ask for a dollar. No smoke, no mirrors — just data.
Results, Not Retainers
Every engagement is built around measurable outcomes: Map Pack positions, lead volume, and revenue impact.
AI-Native Thinking
We don't bolt AI onto old strategies. We build campaigns from the ground up for the way search works today.
Local Business Advocacy
We exist to level the playing field for independent businesses competing against national chains and franchise giants.

ORCA Holdings Co.
Optimized Results through Consulting & Automation
ORCA Holdings Co. is the strategic parent company behind The Webguys and Prime Vector Consultants — a holding structure built to deliver enterprise-grade digital infrastructure to local and regional businesses across the United States.
Every system, strategy, and campaign is engineered for maximum performance — not set-and-forget, but continuously refined against real data.
We measure success in rankings, leads, and revenue — not impressions or vanity metrics. If it doesn't move the needle, it doesn't belong in the strategy.
Strategy without execution is just expensive advice. Automation without strategy is just noise. ORCA combines both under one roof — for results that compound.
