I am a one man web design company in Portland Oregon that strives to give you an eye catching website that you will be proud of. Making a good impression on the web is important, and with my help, you will. ( Click here to view my resume )

    My focus is standards compliant web design. Specializing in LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP). Here are a few areas I can help you with.

    • Site design & re-design
    • Graphic & logo work
    • Content management systems
    • Database driven web applications

    If you don’t see what you want in the above list contact me. I’ve been designing websites for over 10 years.

      With each site I develop, a lot of thought goes into how it is organized and laid out. If someone is visiting a site I built, they won’t get lost in it.

        In order to meet your needs, I can use a large number of different web technologies. Starting from XHTML/CSS to JavaScript, DHTML, Flash, PHP, Java and more.

          Quality

          I take great pride in my work, which means I’m not happy until you’re happy. You can be sure that I’ll be there every step of the way when it comes to creating your web presence.

            Affordable

            My rates are very reasonable for the level of work I delivers. The cost is always set to what needs to be done and never more

              Unique

              Design is not only my business, it’s my creative outlet. It’s what I enjoy so you can be sure that your site will reflect that and won’t blend into the crowd.

                Service

                Ask for it, and I’ll do everything in my power to deliver it. Not only will you receive a site that surpasses your expectations, but I’ll make sure that you know how to use it. What good is a thing of beauty that you’re afraid to touch?

                  In order to make sure you’re happy with the final product, this is how I go about designing a new site:

                  1. Talk with you to find out what your needs are. This helps me determine what technology is right for you and what style of site you would like.
                  2. Get a list of URLs of sites you like. This way I can be sure your site will have the look you want.
                  3. Design an initial mockup so that I can get your feedback early in the design process.
                  4. Modify the mockup according to your comments & suggestions.
                  5. Code the site’s interface and put in skeleton content so you can see the site in action.
                  6. Modify the interface if you have any concerns or change requests.
                  7. Finalize the site’s design.
                  8. Ensure that you are comfortable modifying it (if designing a template) or enter in your content (if it’s a complete design project).

                  Cost

                  Pricing a project in web design is a fluid process. Each project is unique and so there is no hard and fast rule for how much to charge. That being said, here are some average costs (all prices in USD):

                  • Logo design: $150 to $300
                  • Coding site from provided design: $300 to $500
                  • Template re-design: $300 to $500
                  • Custom template: $500 to $800
                  • Site optimization: $500 to $800
                  • Complete design: $1000 to $1500

                  For database driven web sites, you will need to contact me since the level of work required for these is highly variable.
