Services
Web Development
I work through all the stages of a website installation or redesign, from conceptualization and function, to a content management plan. My websites built in WordPress are compliant with the latest coding standards and easy to integrate with social media.
Your web audience is lost if they can’t find the content they are looking for. A site that is easy to navigate and communicates the desired message is essential. I can help you with content to build your brand, reach the target audience, and rank higher in search engine results.
Website Hosting
All websites need to be connected to the World Wide Web and hosted online in order for anyone to access them. While your can set up a hosting account yourself, as an individual you’ll pay about $50 / year just for one website. I welcome you to price the competition and then host with me.

Blogging
There are firms specializing in SEO who focus on link building and artificially bulking up a website with certain features. I take a more conservative, bare bones approach – creating quality content! Incorporating blogging into a website makes it easier to get picked up by search engines, and, get this, your human readers!
Because search engines can change their algorithm at any time, I believe that quality content that stays on top of trends will always win. That’s why I take a more conservative approach of emphasizing quality, relevant content that is updated regularly. Work on website content, a blog, and social media campaigns is the most surefire prescription to have a professional looking website that search engines reward with top rankings.
Social Media Strategies
I believe in being a smart adopter, not an early adopter riding on whatever wave is hot and trendy at the moment. Social media is here to stay, and it can work for you and your business.
Facebook, Twitter, and increasingly, LinkedIn (see below), are used to advertise businesses, recruit new customers and to maintain relationships with an existing client base. It’s an affordable way to market your brand, it improves your search engine rankings, and it can be a lot of fun!
Think you don’t have time for social media? I can provide you with a custom plan that for managing your networks in just minutes a day. For businesses who know how to use social media or want to learn more, I coach them to find the strategies that will most effectively reach their goals.
Social media is best managed in house. Only you intimately know your business! But many small business are too busy doing what they do best to learn how to effectively use social media (opening up a Twitter account is NOT a strategy!) For businesses who don’t have the time and/or the know-how to use social media themselves, I help them create a plan and then implement it for them. This can be as basic as growing the size of your network or a more involved process of running promotions and generating activity and buzz around your brand.
