Is Your Website Working Against You?

Invisible on Google

If you're not showing up on Google, you're handing clients to your competitors.

Painfully Slow

Three seconds is all you get. Slow sites lose business before they say hello.

Confusing Navigation

If visitors can't figure out what you do in 5 seconds, they're gone.

No Clear Action

Every page should answer: what do you want me to do? If it doesn't, you're leaving money behind.

What I Deliver

Transparent pricing. No lock-in, no surprise invoices.

Common Questions

Straight answers to the things people actually ask.

How much does a website cost?

It depends on scope. Simple projects and landing pages start around $500–$2,000. Full custom website builds typically run $2,500–$12,000. Frontend hosting starts at $10/month. Retainer plans start at $250/month. Hourly consulting is $125/hour. The first conversation is always free.

Are you local to the Vail Valley, Colorado?

Yes. I'm based in Gypsum and I serve businesses throughout Eagle County, Summit County, and the surrounding area — including Avon, Edwards, Breckenridge, and the Roaring Fork Valley. Remote clients are welcome too.

Do I own my website when you're done?

Yes, always. The code is yours. The domain is yours. The hosting access is yours. No platform lock-in, no per-seat licensing, no holding your site hostage if you ever want to move on.

Do you build more than just websites?

Yes. I build full-stack web applications and integrations: booking systems, client portals, reservation engines, admin dashboards, custom CMS tools, and database-backed applications. A "website" is often just the front end — if your business needs a backend to match, I build that too.

What kinds of businesses do you work with?

Primarily service-based businesses in Eagle County and Summit County: hospitality and vacation rentals, ski and outdoor guides, contractors, law firms, restaurants, and real estate professionals. I specialize in industry-specific systems — booking engines for lodging, intake portals for law firms, scheduling tools for guides — not just generic websites.

How long does it take to build a website?

A focused landing page or small project: 1–2 weeks. A full custom website: 4–8 weeks. A complex web application with backend systems: 6–12 weeks depending on scope. I'll give you a realistic estimate upfront and stick to it.
