Why your website matters for SEO
Your website is the hub of your entire online presence. Every SEO strategy, every citation, every piece of content — it all points back to your site. If your site is slow, poorly structured, hard to navigate, or not mobile-friendly, it undermines everything else you do.
I build websites that are engineered for search performance from the ground up. Not retrofitted, not patched together with plugins — built right from the start.
Clean, semantic HTML
No page builders, no bloated themes, no 47 plugins. Clean, hand-written HTML and CSS that loads fast, renders correctly, and gives search engines exactly what they need to understand your content.
Mobile-first responsive design
Over 60% of local searches happen on mobile. Every site I build starts with the mobile experience and scales up to desktop — not the other way around. Fast, touch-friendly, and readable on any device.
SEO architecture from day one
Proper heading hierarchy, semantic HTML5 elements, optimized title tags and meta descriptions, schema markup, XML sitemaps, fast load times, compressed images, lazy loading — all built in from the start, not bolted on later.
Conversion-focused layouts
A beautiful site that doesn't convert is just art. I design with clear calls to action, intuitive navigation, and layouts that guide visitors toward the actions that matter for your business — calls, form fills, bookings, purchases.
Modern hosting on Netlify
I deploy sites on Netlify — fast global CDN, automatic HTTPS, continuous deployment, and zero server management. Your site loads in under 2 seconds from anywhere in the world.
What about WordPress?
For most small business sites, WordPress is overkill. You're paying for hosting, maintaining plugins, managing security updates, and dealing with bloat you don't need. A custom static site is faster, cheaper to host, more secure, and easier to maintain. If you need a CMS, I'll recommend the right solution for your situation.
My process
Discovery call to understand your business and goals. Strategy and wireframing to plan the structure. Design and development with regular check-ins. Content integration and SEO optimization. Launch, testing, and training. Post-launch support to make sure everything runs smoothly.
