Web Design

Web Design by Michelle Waters

With 10 years experience in web design, I’ve developed resourced, honed skills and created partnerships that you’ll benefit from as I’m building your website. My focus has always been on building websites that that work. While they might not be works of art, your customers will be able to find what you’re selling and easily order. When it comes down to it, art is great for museums — not so great for paying the bills.

Our websites are designed to showcase your products and content. After all, you want your clients talking about your awesome blog posts or wonderful products, not how pretty your website is.

Design Process

I offer a free 30-minute consultation to my web design prospects, during which we will work together to determine which of our services will best suit your needs. I will then send you a contract that clearly spells out the terms of our agreement and the specific tasks I will complete as part of our project.

Once I receive the signed contract, payment and the materials needed to start the project, I will begin work.

If you have ordered a site design or design customization, I will provide one concept based on the information you provide during our consultation. I will also provide up to two rounds of design revisions to the initial concept to insure that you receive the design that will best showcase your products, services or content.

Once you sign the final approvals, we’ll hand over the keys to your brand new website!
