Custom website for your business

Are you looking for someone who can build a modern and “responsive” website for you? In a reasonable amount of time, for a reasonable cost? Do you want someone who respects your needs and priorities? I recommend me. Seriously, those are the goals with every site I create. I do my best to look after my clients. I can:

• help you choose and buy a domain name, if you don’t already have one.
• set up inexpensive, dependable hosting, if you need it. I will always set it up in your name – with your password – so you don’t get locked out. I have several clients whose previous web person just disappeared – and they were stuck with a website they could no longer get to.
• design a site with your preferences in mind: your colors, your style, and definitely your brand.
• build a site you can edit yourself – or make updates for you if you prefer. I have clients who have taken over the site management, and others who count on me to take care of the updates to their sites. I’m happy to work with you either way, and provide training if you want to make your own updates.

My specialty is equestrian sites, especially stallions and breeding farms, with clients in the US and Canada. Scroll down for examples.

A customized WordPress website

Most of our websites today are created in WordPress, for several reasons. WordPress provides a management structure and a base design that can be customized. One of the best things about it is that it allows you to easily manage your website’s content yourself once it’s set up. It has a “front end” that is visible to the public, and a “back end” where site management happens. WordPress supplies a beautiful back end that makes editing easy for you, even if you’ve never done it before.

What does this mean for you?

A beautiful and sleek website with a professional look that reflects your horses, your business, your style. I install WordPress on your hosting site, choose a template based on the look you want, and then work with you to customize it, add the pages and the structure that you want, and start adding the content.

While not as flexible in design as a custom HTML website, WordPress is faster, less expensive, and allows you to do the updates and edits yourself.

Do it yourself! Once we get your website designed and built, you can add and update information, upload or delete photos, and keep your site interesting by making timely changes yourself. You work with your website’s built-in tools, which are straight-forward and easy to use, and we show you how.

Faster turnaround / lower costs. We can create your new website for you usually within two to four weeks, at a cost that typically starts under $1000. We will give you an estimate ahead of time, because cost depends on how large your site is, and how complicated.

Zero maintenance costs. Because you update your website yourself, you don’t need to pay someone else every time you want to make changes – and you can do it on your own schedule.

We are also happy to maintain and update your site for you, if you prefer, and several clients who like that arrangement.

My goal is always to do my best to absorb what you want in a website – and from your website – and I work to make your vision a reality. I’m most at home creating elegant, modern, streamlined designs that let your content be the focus.

A Custom HTML Website

If you want more flexibility in your website’s design, a custom HTML website might be the way to go. It’s a more “old-fashioned” method – but there are not many limits on what you can do with the design. The down sides are that it takes longer to create, so it costs more. And there is no back end, so you would have to pay someone to make all changes and updates for you.
