Custom Web Design

A custom website without the messy parts .

Custom-coded, fast, and built around your business. No templates. No platform fees. No 11pm panic when something breaks. You get a website you actually own, and I take care of the rest.

01 ·Who it's for

A small business owner who'd rather not deal with this.

Read these out loud. If you nod even once, we should talk.

  • You've got a business and no website yet, and the thought of building one yourself makes you want to lie down.
  • Your current site is held together with duct tape and you can't remember the password to update it.
  • Your old web person disappeared and you're not sure what's even still working.
  • You hired someone, got a decent site, and then got ghosted the second the invoice cleared.
  • You want to spend your time running your business, not figuring out why your contact form stopped sending emails.

The good news: this is fixable. I do it for a living.

02 ·Packages

Three packages. Pick the one that fits.

Every site is custom-coded and designed strategically around what your business actually needs. Built to be fast and reliable so you're not losing visitors to a slow site. The kind of website that doesn't make you say "ugh" when someone asks for the link.

03 ·How it works

From hello to handoff.

01

Chat

Email me, message me, book a call, send a carrier pigeon. Whatever works. We'll have a real conversation about your business, and if we're a fit, I'll send a proposal within a couple days.

02

Build

I design and build your site from scratch. You'll see it come together, send me notes, and we'll go back and forth a couple times until it's right. You don't need to know anything about code. Pinky promise.

03

Launch

Your site goes live. I walk you through everything in a quick video, hand over the files, and stick around. Most clients keep me on a care plan so they don't have to think about their site again. Either way, the relationship doesn't end at launch.

04 ·Client love

Real words from real clients.

Receipts

She knows what you want before you do.

When I shared my vision for the animal rescue, she put together the perfect website that not only captured my needs but showcased the animals. She knows what you want before you do.

05 ·Real questions

Things people ask.

The questions I get most often. If yours isn't here, send it over on the contact page and you'll get a real answer from a real person.

How long until I have my website?

Two weeks for a Starter or Business site, four-ish for a Custom build. That clock starts the day you send me what I need (your stuff, your photos, the basics about your business). If you take three weeks to send it over, we tack on three weeks. If you're on the ball, we might even finish early. Honestly most of the "this took forever" stories you've heard are about people who sat on their homework. Don't be that person and we're golden.

Wait, is the website actually mine?

Yep. The code, the files, every line of it. It's yours. If you ever decide you want to take it somewhere else, I hand the whole thing over the same business day. No charge, no weird exit fees, no holding your site hostage until you beg for it. That's not how I operate.

Do I have to be on a monthly plan after launch?

Not technically. But honestly? It's what I recommend, and it's what almost everyone goes with. A care plan means I keep your site hosted, backed up, watched, and updated whenever something needs to change. You literally never have to think about your website again, which is kind of the whole point. If you really don't want to be on one, I'll hand over the files at launch and walk you through hosting it yourself. But that's the backup plan, not the default. We figure out which one makes sense for you when we chat.

I'm starting from zero. Is that okay?

Totally okay. I can write your site copy with AI tools and walk you through what photos you'll actually need. Photos are usually the part people stress about, so I built an AI Brand Photography package for exactly this. You name it, I've got you. You don't need to show up with all your ducks in a row. Figuring that part out IS my job.

What if something breaks after launch?

Every package comes with a built-in window for small fixes after launch (2 weeks for Starter and Business, 30 days for Custom). After that, if you're on a care plan, I just handle it. If you're not, you can still reach out anytime and I'll either fix it on the spot or quote you. To be real with you though, static-coded sites don't break often. There's nothing on them to break. But life happens, weird stuff comes up, and that's what I'm here for.

I already have a website. Can you just rebuild it?

Absolutely. I do this all the time, mostly for people getting off Squarespace, Wix, or some old WordPress nightmare. We keep the stuff that's working (your URLs, your content if it's good), rebuild the rest in the new stack, and your Google ranking doesn't take a hit. Send me your site link on the contact page and I'll see what we're working with.
