A Designer & Developer Bringing your Company's presence into a 21st Century Web.
Looking for a website at a reasonable price from someone that actually takes the time to understand your business? I’m ready and willing to understand how you get sales and how we can apply that to the internet today to increase your leads, for real conversions.
My Process
Define
What are you looking to accomplish in a new or enhanced website? What are your goals?
Design & prototype
For most websites, I utilize WordPress with Divi Builder. These are commonly used tools that can be managed over time with little intervention.
Refine
Once we have a design together and establish the next steps, we’ll refine this design and get on the same page with the layout.
Build
Now the real fun begins. This is where you’ll see your site flourish and head down the road to becoming live. All the while, the site is viewable for you to make any suggestions you’d like.

Website Design & Development
This is the first phase in our collaborative effort. In short, this phase is to make your new site, or modify your existing one, to incorporate current standards and guidelines for a better web. Throughout this process, your site is available for your review, and I encourage you to look as much as you can.
Website Design
First phase of the process in order to determine if we’ll be a good fit. The deliverable at this page is a home page layout and a singular service or product page for reference, in most cases.
Branding & Logo
Have a logo? Maybe it needs to be re-done in vector format to scale properly for all content? Whatever the case may be, I have the services that you need in relation to branding.
Content Strategy
This strategy details out what we need to know in order to build a positive outcome. At this stage questions will be asked such as “How do customers find you now?” and “What are the most common questions asked by your clients?”
Built From Scratch
Once the above are determined, a website can get underway and we’ll start seeing that grow throughout the process, but before google starts to crawl the site for indexing.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and Ads
This phase doesn’t truly end, and if you choose to work with me and work out after-sale services, I can manage tweaks, upgrades and standard upkeep of your website. Site standards never stop changing, so if it’s not me managing your site, you’ll want someone to!
Maintenance & Updates
Once your content is live, the process is not over. Tweaking of the site content based on analytics and search console results may increase site effectiveness, and ultimately, lead generation.
Search engine optimization
One thing that people always find interesting is that images are not just images. Images are content, when done properly. Google can’t tell what an image is just by scrolling past it and seeing the image name, there’s a Title, Alt Text and Description to let Google and search engines know what is within the image. While doing SEO, all of these factors are evaluated and taken care of for you.
Ads?
In many cases, pay-per-click advertisements can be an effective way to get your name out to the public. Ads can be delivered from search engines such as Google & Bing, Social networks such as Facebook & LinkedIn, or even shopping sites such as Amazon, depending on the product or service. Management of these campaigns can be a challenge for new beginners, so a proper foundation can go a long way.

About Me
I’m Mike. I’ve been making and managing websites for 10 years.
I do have a day job, at which I like what I do and whom I work for. Sometimes, though, I just like to keep my mind active at night, on the weekends etc. on new and exciting projects. If you feel that this means I won’t give you the attention you deserve, then I assure you it does not. I understand that although these are side projects, to someone else they’re of a priority level, and I respect that. Due to the time it takes me to get through a project, I feel my rates are reflective of that, and my goal is to be fair and deliver an exceptional result.
