I have had 30 years of graphic design experience, including having my own studio in Kalamazoo, Michigan for ten years. I began working with computers in 1980. This combination of experiences was a natural fit with the internet.

In 1995 I tried to start a web site design service. I was too early. Folks didn't understand the internet, or what it would become.

Now, of course, everyone has a 14 year old cousin, or sibling who can create a web site. And, also, there are any number of commercial software products that take you through the process. But, this is not enough to make a truly serviceable web site if your business needs to inform your customers, needs to make them interested in what you are offering, and needs to communicate with them in such a way that they will get in touch with you.

The best web sites are all about content, ease of use, and speed. They are *not* about fancy graphics, flashing lights, and disorganization.

I do not offer site design with shopping carts or any form of online purchasing. What I can provide you with is expert editing of your content, intelligent presentation of your services or products, and the right tone for making potential customers want to contact you. I have excellent writing skills (Honors M.A. in English, plus all-but-disseration in British Literature).

Types of Businesses That Can Benefit

If your business is a service business or if the products you sell cannot be sold without discussion with your customers, then you will benefit from at least talking to me about how you would like to see your business represented on the web.

I am clearly offering a niche service. I want to work with people who appreciate good clean design and expert functionality. I can design logos and graphics specifically related to the image you want to cultivate. Your site will have a high degree of consistency and excellent design parameters. I design only with the visitor in mind. This approach will set your business apart from the run-of-the-mill sites and will make your visitors want to spend time on your web pages.

My prices are extremely reasonable as I am especially interested in working with musicians, artists, antique dealers, and the like. Other businesses which could benefit would be any type of construction business, repair business, or tutoring service. Further, I design sites to be easily maintained by you. If you are interested in this, I will train you to take care of them. This alleviates the prospect of site-maintenance fees. It also enables you to make frequent changes, thus keeping your site current.
