Service
Web design
What if getting a website felt taken care of — and the result actually helped people find and contact you?
What is this?
Planning and building a website that presents your business clearly, shows your services, and gives visitors an easy way to contact you or take the next step.
Who is this for?
Owners who know they need a real site — and would rather have it handled than learn to be the webmaster. Hands-off by default; light updates optional later.
What do you get?
A live site that looks like your business, conversion paths that work, search and tracking from launch, and ongoing help if you want me to stay involved.
Typical timeline: Two to six weeks depending on scope. A small service-business site with five to eight pages and a contact form lands in two; a custom Next.js build with content modeling and integrations stretches toward six.
What you get
Deliverables and outcomes
Scoped clearly — you know what's included and what you keep running.
Pages that clearly show who you are and what you offer
Contact, booking, or inquiry paths that actually work
A look and feel that matches the business — not a template that could be anyone
Search basics and tracking set up from launch
White-glove handoff — or a short update walkthrough if you want it
A platform chosen for the job, not the trend
When this fits
This lane is a good fit when…
If several of these match what you're trying to get done, you're in the right place.
Working together
From first note to handoff
Message or a short call — same process either way.
Discovery — what the site needs to do
What you offer, who it's for, and what a visitor should do next (call, form, book, buy). We keep the page list short and purposeful.Design and build
I pick the platform that fits the job and build the site — your story, services, and contact or conversion paths — so you don't have to learn the tools to get a launch.Launch and handoff your way
Search and tracking set up from day one. After launch you can stay hands-off (I handle updates) or get a short walkthrough for light edits — your call.

FAQ
Common questions — Web design
Do you only build new sites?
No — and new businesses launching their first site are a common fit. If you already have a site and the platform is sound, we can fix pages, contact or booking flows, search basics, and tracking in place. If the wrong tool is holding you back, I'll say so before a rebuild.
Do I have to update the site myself?
No. Most owners want a white-glove experience: I build it, launch it, and stay available for updates. If you'd rather make light edits yourself later, we can set that up with a short walkthrough — optional, not required.
Wix, WordPress, or Next.js — how do you choose?
What the site needs to do, what must connect (booking, payments, CRM), and whether you want to stay hands-off or edit a few things yourself. Most small-business sites land on Wix or WordPress; custom products usually need Next.js.
How do you handle SEO and analytics?
Search basics and meaningful tracking are part of the build — not bolted on at the end — so you can see whether the site is actually helping you get inquiries.
How is this different from hiring an agency?
The same person who scopes the work builds it and hands it off — so context doesn't get lost between strategy, design, and implementation. You get direct answers and far fewer coordination meetings.
What should I bring to a first call?
What you need done in plain language: the website, CRM, automation, or analytics work, what “done” looks like, and any tools already in play. That is enough to tell you fit and what a first milestone would look like.
What happens after launch?
White glove is available if you want me on updates. If you'd rather own light changes — or the work is an automation your team will run — you get clear notes so nothing depends on memory.
How long does this usually take?
Typical timelines on this lane: Two to six weeks depending on scope. A small service-business site with five to eight pages and a contact form lands in two; a custom Next.js build with content modeling and integrations stretches toward six..

What the work can look like
What the site is for
Portray the business clearly, show services (or products), and make the next step obvious — contact, book, order, or inquire. Design serves that job; it doesn't replace it.
Built for you end to end
I plan the pages, write or shape the copy with you, build on the right platform, wire contact or commerce flows, and launch with search and tracking in place. You don't need to learn the stack to get a real site live.
Hands-off or light self-serve — your call
Prefer white glove after launch? I stay available for updates. Want to change hours or a photo yourself? We can leave the editor approachable and walk through the basics. Optional either way — not a requirement of the engagement.
Platform fits the job
Wix or WordPress for most small-business marketing sites; Next.js when the product is genuinely custom. I pick based on what the site needs to do and how involved you want to be later — not what's trendy.
A bit more on this lane
Most owners don't want to become webmasters. They know they need a site that looks like their business, explains what they offer, and gives a visitor a clear way to call, book, or inquire — then they want someone else to handle the rest. That's the default here: white-glove from plan through launch. If you'd rather make light updates yourself later, we can set that up. If you'd rather stay hands-off, that's fine too.
How I think about this work
A small-business website's job isn't to win design awards. It's to convince the person who landed on it that the business behind it is real, competent, and worth contacting. Specific copy, real photos, and a clear next step beat flashy layout every time. I'll push back on bells and whistles that don't help with that.
Tools I often use here
Not my lane
- Enterprise CMS implementations (Sitecore, Adobe Experience Manager).
- Headless commerce at scale (Shopify Plus with custom storefronts).
- Design-only with no development — I do both together, not design in isolation.
