A Couple Other Notes

  1. You should know that I’m a data nut.

Everything I do and recommend is based on verifiable data, and I am ALWAYS collecting and analyzing data.

I don’t blindly read some article online and accept it as truth.

Most of what I find online is either incorrect or just copied and re-worded from something the “author” found elsewhere online.

My methods and data come from peer-reviewed and primary sources, as well as my own THIRTY YEARS of web design experience (I started making websites in 1994!).

Everything I do to set up and maintain websites will be tracked, analyzed, and used to increase the metrics that really matter.

Partnering for Success

When you choose to work with me, you’re not just getting a website; you’re gaining a partner who is committed to your success:

  1. Data-Driven Decisions: Benefit from three decades of experience backed by data-driven strategies and continuous analysis for improved performance.
  2. Collaborative Approach: Your input is crucial. We thrive on open, honest communication to ensure your website reflects your vision and goals.
  3. Your Control, Your Assets: All accounts (hosting, domain, analytics) are set up in your name, ensuring you have full control and access to your digital assets.
