Whether you're an individual seeking a personal site, a small business striving to advance a web channel, or a corporation looking for an extra hand, I offer services that can help you succeed in creating the engaging website you crave.

Bespoke Design

It is an odd word, bespoke, but it fittingly embodies the lot I offer: the design and construction of websites specific to each client's particular wants and needs. Moreover, I fashion custom websites that are successful because they more aptly meet the wants and needs of the audience.

Self-Centered

It begins with you, obviously, identifying your goals, website objectives, intended audience, features, functions, and so on. From this analysis, the concept of your website is formed. Conceivably, we could press forward and begin designing, but that would ignore a primary stakeholder – the demographic for which you want to play host. Unless you intend being the only user, a strictly egocentric approach will send your website down an ill-fated path.

User-Centered

Your website needs to attract and maintain end-users' attention. A pretty face garners only transient regard. It is vital to approach design in a comprehensive manner, looking beyond pleasing aesthetics and assessing all facets influencing how a visitor perceives and employs a website. Through decision-making deliberative of end-users' wants and needs, there is greater assurance that each will have a satisfactory, if not enjoyable, encounter.

Sustainable Construction

Duct tape and prayers are wonderful for holding one's stuff and one's self together, respectively, but not websites. Opting for a custom-tailored website is key to your success, but it is equally important to have it built by an experienced designer/engineer. Orchestrating the various parts into a coherent, sound structure produces a website that wears well and increases the return on your investment.

Search Engine Optimization

Strict, precise coding produces higher rankings for your website within the result pages of major search engines.

Cross-browser Compatibility

Pages stay true to the design and websites function as intended, across all major browsers.

Handiwork

Coding the old fashioned way, by hand, ensures pages remain lean so that your website is accessible, faster, manageable, and extensible.

Benchmarks

Observing industry standards, universal conventions, and best practices is a synthesis culminating in:

Manageability – regardless of the person maintaining your site, intimate knowledge is not a necessity to work in the code, so long that the engineer also abides by these norms.
Extensibility – a website can grow and change as technology, demands, and expectations change.
Accessibility – ensure everybody wanting to use your site is able, regardless of visual, physical, or cognitive impairment. Being inclusive and solicitous facilitates your success.
