Your website working for you!
I am in business to help you, as a fellow small business owner, get more business with less effort by designing you a really good web site that works for you and by remaining available for friendly ongoing maintenance and advice as you need it.
What is a good website?
A good website needs to communicate your business effectively. You'll spend less time repeating yourself on the phone and more time being productive.
A good web site also needs to get across your "marketing message" - a compelling, concise statement of why people should give you their business.
Good website design needs to be user-friendly: fast to download, easy to navigate, enjoyable and accessible so that your visitors have a good experience and stick around long enough to get interested.
A good web site is designed to rank well with the search engines so that people nearby and around the world who are looking for your product or service can find you. When designing a web site, it's best to keep this goal in mind from the beginning.
I see our working relationship as a partnership, pooling our knowledge and expertise to reach these goals and others you have for your small business.
I am available for new web design and website redesign. After the site is launched under your own domain, I remain available for prompt and affordable website updates. Or I can help set you up to make your own updates.
Where do I start?

I'm located on Nova Scotia's South Shore, have lived in the Annapolis Valley, Halifax, Montreal and Africa, and serve the world.
