Service Offerings

Web Development

Engineering x Design


There are great web developers and then there are lazy ones. I'd like to think that after 20 years in this industry, I've become "very OK" at this craft.

Dynamic HTML5 Ads

Creative x Media


I make creative and engaging media by making text and images move on the screen. This generally leads to high conversion rates for your business.

CMS Platforms

Simplicity x Websites


Through the years, creating a website has been simplified to "point and click". But you're also running a business, so let us both focus on what we do best.

SEO

Higher x Rankings


The Search Engine Optimization landscape has become exponentially competitive. Let's craft the most effective strategy to improve your rankings.

Project Management

Effective x Efficient


I've been known to wear the Project Manager hat. Whether projects are "from the beginning" or "in the middle of a sh*t show", let's get it across the finish line.

Web Hosting

Uptime x Monitoring


Continue leading that Zoom call with the rest of the marketing team. Leave the website maintenance, monitoring and updates to yours truly.
