I used to run ads 20 years ago when people could and would read print. Waste of money these days unless you do a full court press with all the social media stuff as a back up. f that.
What you need is clear, a presence.

However, that presence can hurt far more than it helps if it's not done even reasonably well.

How it looks, clean and modern may help. If it looks like a website out of the 80's it will hurt.

I know you know that and my reason for stating it is simply to reiterate that to create something that meets a standard where it helps you takes certain tools. No different than the tools you use to ply your trade. I'm reasonably sure you've got more than a hammer in your toolbox.

I've seen the work you've shared with us in the past and you are a true craftsman, a rarity these days.

If you want to PM and chat I'm happy to lend whatever assistance or guidance you need.

I've done more here for people I like less.
