Whether we build from scratch or redesign an existing site, your colors, type, and voice stay consistent on every page.
We build on WordPress because it is flexible, well supported, and easy to manage. You can update your own content without calling a developer.
Most visitors arrive on a phone, so every layout is designed for small screens first. Mobile-friendly pages also support stronger visibility in search.
Before launch, we test your site across major browsers and devices, checking forms, links, and page speed along the way.
We recommend WP Engine for reliable, high-performance hosting. Every site we manage has an SSL certificate, daily backups, and current theme and plugin updates.
Want to make simple updates yourself after launch? We walk you through the process until you feel confident managing your site.
Yes. For most customers, your website is the first impression of your business, and they often decide within seconds whether to stay. It needs to look professional, load quickly, and work well on every device. An effective website pairs strong visuals with clear content and simple navigation. Visitors find what they need quickly, and your business earns their trust before they ever call.
We begin by getting to know your brand, audience, and goals through research and open conversation. We look at what makes your business different, review websites you admire, and talk through your visual preferences. That groundwork shapes a design that represents who you are.
Together, we build a style guide that defines your colors, typography, and visual elements, so your brand looks consistent everywhere. From there, we create wireframes and design concepts, then refine them with your feedback until the direction is right. You approve the design before any development begins.
Once the design is approved, we build your site in WordPress on a private staging site. You can follow progress and review real pages before anything goes public. We set up your page templates, navigation, forms, and any features your business needs, such as online booking or a store.
We write clean code and optimize every image, so pages load quickly on phones and desktops. Each page also gets an SEO-friendly structure, with clear headings, page titles, and descriptions. Your content goes in as we build, which lets you see how it reads in the finished layout.
Our process is collaborative, and your feedback guides every step. Before launch, we test the site across devices and browsers, then fix anything that falls short. We handle the launch itself, including redirects from your old pages when you are replacing a site. We also provide hands-on training so you feel confident managing and updating your website, and we stay available for hosting, updates, and support long after your site goes live.
Yes. We work with businesses across Marin County and Sonoma County, creating websites tailored to the local market, customer behavior, and competitive landscape. Our designs are built to resonate with your audience while improving visibility in local search results.

Most websites take 4–8 weeks from start to launch. Timelines depend on project scope, content readiness, and revisions. We follow a structured process to keep everything on track and transparent.
