Custom website design
Designed around your business, not pulled off a shelf. Every layout, color and line of copy is chosen for what you sell and who buys it.
Services
Websites, ordering systems, and real software.
Most studios hand off a brochure site and call it done. If your business needs the site to take orders, book appointments, manage customers or charge cards — that's the same conversation here.
What I build
Eight things I do, done properly.
Multi-page business sites
Services, menus, teams, programs, policies, booking flows — structured so a customer finds what they need in one move, on a phone.
Landing pages
One focused page built to do one job: launches, promos, ad traffic, link-in-bio. Fast to ship, fast to load, pointed at a single action.
Ordering & booking systems
Real workflows, not a contact form. Carts, pickup scheduling, live menus, deposits, admin dashboards and instant email alerts to you.
Web apps & custom software
Accounts and logins, subscription billing, customer dashboards, multi-tenant platforms. The software behind the business, not just the front of it.
SEO & local search
Titles, structure, schema, sitemaps, page speed and location targeting done at build time — so you can actually be found for what you do.
AI features
Where it genuinely helps: generated copy, smart assistants, content that adapts to the customer. Built on real APIs, not bolted-on hype.
Launch on your domain
Your domain, your hosting, HTTPS, forms, analytics and share cards configured properly. You own everything. No lock-in, no monthly rent for your own site.
Every project includes
The standard, not the upsell.
These aren't add-ons or a “premium package”. They're in every build, because a website without them isn't finished.
- A custom design — no theme, no page builder, nothing recycled from another client
- Mobile-first build tested on real phone widths, not just a desktop browser resized
- Fast hand-coded HTML, CSS and JavaScript — no bloated plugin stack slowing you down
- Search setup done properly: titles, meta, headings, schema, sitemap, robots, share cards
- Forms that reach you by email the moment someone fills them in
- Google Analytics and Search Console connected so you can see what's working
- Launch on your domain with HTTPS, plus a walkthrough of how to manage it
- Accessible markup, keyboard navigation and sensible contrast as a default

FAQ
Common questions about scope and delivery
How long does a website take?
A landing page is usually live in 2–4 days. A full business site takes 1–2 weeks. Custom builds with ordering, accounts or payments are scoped individually — most land between three and six weeks.
The biggest variable is content: if photos and details are ready when we start, it moves fast.
What does it actually cost?
Landing pages run $750–$1,200. Business websites run $2,000–$3,500. Custom builds and software start at $5,000 and are quoted per project. You get a fixed price before any work begins — no hourly surprises.
Do I own the website?
Yes, completely. It's launched on a domain you own, on hosting in your name, with your accounts. There's no proprietary platform and no monthly fee required to keep your own site online. If you ever want to take it elsewhere, it goes with you.
Do you build with WordPress, Wix, or Squarespace?
No. Everything is hand-coded. That's why these sites load faster, score better in search, and can do things a template can't — like a live menu, an ordering system, or a customer dashboard. If you already have a site on one of those platforms, I can rebuild it and move it over.
Can you do more than a website?
That's the main difference here. I've built and shipped complete software platforms — subscription billing, customer accounts, multi-tenant publishing, AI features, real-time multiplayer. If your business needs the system and not just the storefront, that's the same person and the same conversation.
What about ongoing changes after launch?
You can handle edits yourself, hire me per change, or put the site on a care plan ($99–$199/mo) that covers updates, monitoring and priority turnaround. Nothing is mandatory — the site keeps working either way.
Do you work with businesses outside Atlanta?
Yes. I'm based in Atlanta and work with local businesses across metro Atlanta, but the client list runs from Maryland to Alabama. The whole process works over calls, email and preview links.
What do you need from me to start?
A short description of your business, what you want the site to do, and any photos or content you already have. If you don't have photos or copy, say so — that's a solvable problem, not a blocker.
