You need a new website for your business

(actually we don't know that, but we are guessing that's why you are here)

You need a website for your business. Maybe you are starting a brand new venture; maybe you’ve been at it for 20 years. Either way, we can deliver a beautiful website that works on all devices and screens, and is easy to maintain and update - whether we handle them or your team does.

Running a business takes time. You’re reading this because you own a small business, or have been tasked by your boss with “finding a web team/guy/agency/designer/etc”. Overseeing the design and development of a website isn’t your job. Your job is your job. We take on that load. We ask you for approval and feedback, but we don’t ask you to be our project manager. We have one, she’s awesome.

You might need a simple informational website to present your businesses capabilities or product, and provide a contact point. Or something more complicated, including e-commerce, class/course/event scheduling, portfolios of images or video, print-on-demand, or other advanced functionality. We have you covered. Our developers build fast, easy-to-use solutions to your website requirements, and they work. Hard period.

Asking “what am I going to be dealing with for the next year?” Don’t be. We’re expedient and as eager to get your new website perfect and launched as you are. We set up a timeline based on our 6 step process:

Research, Strategy, and Specs

We look at the competitive environment and see what your peers are doing so we can out-do them. We come up with a strategy that dovetails with your business goals. Then we come up with the exact specification for your project so you know what you are getting.

Design

Our designers create several looks for your website and then work with your feedback to perfect your favorite website design. We’ll create a brand style guide based on the design so everything looks great everywhere - brand continuity.

Build

We...build your website. WordPress is our platform of choice for its flexibility and functionality, but we can work with you on Shopify, Squarespace, whatever your preference.  If you aren't sure, we'll present your options based on our decades of experience.

Fold in your content

Content is king and is why people come to your website. If you have copy from existing marketing materials we can use that as a start to create attention-grabbing content for your website, with an eye towards optimizing it for search engines (SEO).

Maximize site performance

We make sure your site loads fast. We take steps to improve your website accessibility to allow disabled people to use your site - and become your customers. And we work our on-site SEO magic to give it a kick-start when we launch.

Test & Deploy

 Before we launch, we want to make sure your site works and looks great on phone, tablet, and computer screens (responsive design). We’ll put it through the ringer on different devices and browsers, and when we’re satisfied you’re satisfied, we deploy. 

Have you ever dealt with a web developer who put up your website, and then disappeared? The bottom of the page still says “©2012”? We don’t roll like that. At a minimum, we keep in touch with you to advise on maintenance for security and continued site functionality. But we can be your “web guy” or “website team” or whatever you’d like to call us - and we are here when you call us.

Want to get found on search engines, either as a local business, or an online destination? We specialize in that. We can develop a strategy to get you ranking for keywords without spending a fortune on Adwords or sketchy backlink schemes. We can literally “put you on the map” when someone searches for your speciality or industry on search engines. Google loves our content and how we execute and deploy it, and you will too.

Sounds like a plan but you aren’t sure? Contact us for a free site assessment. We’ll take a look at what you currently have, or what your plans are, and let you know what kind of an investment you are looking at, with a fairly tight set of specifications so you can compare apples to apples if you’re putting your project out to several firms. But we’re not apples, we build so much value into your site it’s hard to compare us to anyone else. Maybe something exotic like a kumquat. Or a dragon fruit.
