Domain management

Registration, renewals, DNS, and email records — handled, so your domain never expires by accident.

Custom development

When an off-the-shelf solution won't do, I build exactly what your project needs.

  • Custom templates

    New templates for your CMS or project, with accessible, mobile-friendly markup.

    Quoted per project

  • Front-end applications

    Front-end application development or consulting.

Why work with me

Website builders have come a long way. You still have to run them.

You could manage your site yourself on one of the popular website builders. But they lock your site into their platform, customizing a template can turn into a support ticket, and learning the platform takes time you'd rather spend on your business.

With me, you get an optimized website, quickly — one you can easily edit without being a web expert. I've been making websites for 20 years. Lean on that, and stop thinking about your web presence. It will just work.

Doing it yourself on a builder

  • Your site is locked into their platform
  • Customizing a template means workarounds or support tickets
  • Hours spent learning the tools
  • You're on your own when something breaks

Working with me

  • Your site is yours — no platform lock-in
  • Clear, fixed prices for everything
  • Custom design without the template fights
  • Easy editing, no web expertise needed
  • Local, easy-to-contact support from someone who knows your site
  • SSL certificate and a contact form included

Hosting

Hosting without the IT overhead

My hosting is a custom solution that uses GitHub to log in to your website. There are no plugins to update, no PHP to upgrade, and none of the IT overhead that sometimes comes with owning your own WordPress site.

  • Fast

    Lightweight pages that load quickly on any connection.

  • Reliable

    Nothing to crash, nothing to fall out of date.

  • Super secure

    SSL included, with no plugins or database for attackers to poke at.

  • Easy login

    Sign in with GitHub and edit your content safely.

Pricing

Simple packages. No surprises.

Two simple parts: a one-time price to build your site, and a monthly care plan to keep it running. Every site includes SEO optimization and WCAG accessibility.
