 Help, I need a web site!Need a website but don't know enough about the process to even get started? I can help.
I have multiple levels of experience (as a writer, web designer, small business owner, and graphics enthusiast) to guide you through the process. I specialize in web sites for small business owners, writers and artists, people in short who want a site that recognizes their own individual styles and visions. Without breaking the bank.
What do I do?Everybody tells you that you need a "presence" on the web, right? But what does that mean, exactly?
It means a home on the web where people can find you whether it's to share your artwork, promote your writing, or sell your products. But, the trend today seems to be towards sites that are so over-produced that they're sterile and lack personality, or they are so badly designed that they are hard to read and navigate, let alone find in the search engines (like Google, for example).
None of these is a good thing. :(
So, let me design a web site for you that will combine all the appropriate elements your personality, the needs of your business, the requirements of the search engines, etc. and do it in such a way that it all makes sense to you.
Building a presence on the web doesn't have to be a scary or expensive proposition.
Isn't that nice to hear?
"Content is King"
That's the saying in SEO (Search Engine Optimization) circles. It means that relevant, well-written content on your site is perhaps *the* most important element of a successful web site.
Content brings in visitors and, if updated frequently, brings them back again. If your content is truly relevant, it will get your site bookmarked, people will link to it, and refer others. All good things for your ranking and position in the search engines.
I freelance web site content that complies with SEO. If you need someone to write affordable content for your existing web site, drop me an email. We'll talk.

Pricing informationHow much will a new web site cost? It depends. (*grin*) You've heard that before, right? I know it sounds like a cop out, but the final cost will depend on a number of factors: how many pages you want on the site, how many graphics/pictures you want (and how many of them I'll need to provide for you), how much writing needs to be done (if any), how complicated your site is. I really can't tell you how much the site will cost until we talk.
What I can tell you is this: design and implementation for the small sites that I specialize in generally cost between $100 (for a "business card" type one-page site) and $1000 (for a larger, more in-depth site). Where yours will fall in that range depends on you and your needs.
If your site requires more than will fit in that price range, then I'm probably not the designer for you.
Sample sites I've designed:
The page you're looking at (of course!)
The Enchanted Garret (my personal writing/art site)
Healthy Thoughts, Better Life (web site and store for a licensed professional counselor)
Glencross Farm Bath & Body - web site and store, currently under construction
RomaDesign (web site for an interior design firm)
