What’s included in a "Basic Maintenance Plan"?
My Basic plan covers the essentials: monthly security updates, website plugin updates, and backup management to keep your site stable and protected.
Website Development
Robust, scalable websites built with modern technologies
I help entrepreneurs, artists, and community organizations launch fast, SEO-ready websites tailored to the unique needs of creatives and local brands. Whether you’re launching a new site or upgrading an existing one, my solutions are designed to boost your visibility and drive results. Let’s bring your online presence to life with a website that works as hard as you do.
I build and develop websites to meet your unique needs. I don't use the "one-trick pony" approach, but I meet you where you need your website to be. Whether doing WordPress, Wix, or Squarespace development, I bring years of development experience to determine the right direction for each new project. For each website development project I take on, I use a "no-stone-unturned" philosophy and incorporate an SEO setup or a site audit. Ensuring the website is set for success from the beginning of my development workflow.
Every website I build and develop is done with responsiveness in mind, ensuring a comfortable browsing experience on virtually any device. On each new or ongoing website, I provide concise and transparent guidance on how you can edit and manage your site.
What's included
- React & Next.js Development — Modern JavaScript frameworks for fast, scalable, and SEO-friendly web applications.

Process
- Technical Discovery — I confirm platform/stack, required features, integrations, and constraints (content model, forms, CRM, payments, members). We define acceptance criteria, timelines, and launch requirements.
- Build & Integrate — I build the site structure and components, implement the CMS (if needed), connect integrations (forms, email, analytics), and configure SEO foundations (metadata, redirects, schema where relevant).
- QA, Launch & Handover — I test across devices, validate performance and accessibility, fix bugs, and coordinate launch (DNS as needed). You get a handover with admin training and a clear plan for post-launch improvements.
