I specialize in creating websites for small businesses using my skills with graphic and web design software.  I’ve been creating web pages with various graphic and web design software since 1995.

I believe that small businesses need an internet presence in order to compete within an ever growing computer literate marketplace.  And that presence needs to provide for proper inclusion in web search engines and directories so that customers will be able to find each small business and learn the offerings available from them. Small business can greatly increase their reach to customers with a professional website and social media presence.

If you would like to promote your small business online with your own professional business website, contact me. Following is information on my website design packages:

All websites are created using WordPress creation software and include search engine optimization (SEO) and are responsive (created to provide acceptable viewing on mobile devices like phones and tablets, not just desktops).

Doman registration and hosting fees are not included in my regular web site packages.  With my help, you will select and purchase website hosting and acquire domain registration.  All text content is provided by you – although I will make some suggestions and perhaps show you what similar businesses do.

Blog Sites

If you are interested in blogging, I can create a blog site using WordPress for you.  I will design, host, reserve the domain name and get you started with your blogging.  The blog site will initially contain the home page, the blog index page and a Contact Me page.

Cost for this is $300 to:

  • Host your site for one year.  (includes hosting on a great hosting platform and reservation of the domain name for one year).  Additional years for $50
  • Provide the initial build of the site framework and pages.
  • You will provide the first blog article and I will upload and format it.
  • For a maintenance fee of $25/month, I will upload and publish blog articles you create during the month (not to exceed 3 per week) and which you provide to me in a MS Word file or in the content of an email.  I will format the blog article, add an image (a free one of my choice or one you legally provide).  I will add keywords and help with SEO and submission of your blog site to Google.
  • If you are interested in learning how to monetize your blogsite with affiliate linking or purchasing through paypal or creation of additional pages, I can help you with that for $75/hr.
  • Or I can advise you where to achieve the training necessary to learn to do this yourself.
