I offer funky and unique web design, web-based graphic design, such as web banners and buttons, to help grow and promote your business, and customized e-commerce solutions (using a variety of different shopping cart systems and WordPress plugins). I also do Facebook Page makeovers for your business FB page (new cover photo, avatar, custom name -if you don’t yet have one, etc) and offer consulting for anyone who would like a bit of hand-holding when it comes to discussing things like advertising, promotions, the best way to set up shipping, how to competitively price your products, and more.
Rather than going on and on, let’s get right to the meat of it. Check out what I can do for you…

Large jobs are quoted by the job, the hour. (ie: you’ll save $$ over my posted hourly rates)
Custom Blog Design
>> prices start at $2250
I work with WordPress and the Genesis framework and can create a custom design for you – a design no one else has and one that suits your personality/business needs and goals. From the customized header to the page background and general layout – each WordPress site is done for that client and that client only. In addition, I will assist with inputting content and setting up widgets and plugins as needed (typically no additional fee).
ECommerce Website
>> prices start at $3250
An internet presence is a true necessity to compete in today’s marketplace, but not just any website will do. You need a site that will stand out among the hundreds of other sites your customers have to choose from. A site that is easy to navigate, pleasant to look at, quick-loading and professional. A site that helps – not hinders – your business. I can create just this for you.
I utilize several different e-commerce systems: Mal’s, Ecwid, Cart66 and other WordPress plugins. All e-commerce sites include complete and customized website design, inputting of all content and products, product photo retouching as needed, setting up the cart (payments, taxes, shipping, invoices, etc), and an in-depth phone call/email to go over how everything works so you can manage the site on your own once it’s live. Or, if you’d prefer, I can also manage the site for you. I offer maintenance on any website I’ve created and a good number of my clients prefer to just not worry about web stuff and focus on their business.
The following links will provide you with the features of 3 of the carts I work with.

Website Maintenance
>> all work billed in 5 minute increments
Perhaps you are just too busy to be bothered with maintaining your website. You’d rather create fantabulous products and delightful treasures and you’d like to leave the website work to someone else. That would be me. Whether you just want assistance with adding/removing products or would like someone there to handle everything website related (so you don’t have to), I’m your gal. Maintenance is billed in 5 minute increments without any minimums. Ok, I lied – there is a 5 minute minimum per maintenance request. I am not about to get into documenting seconds and the single minute here and there. That’s just insanity.
While I really only offer maintenance services on sites I’ve created, I have been known to work on existing websites. It really depends on how much of a mess your current site is (code wise.. there are some real hairballs out there that I will run from, screaming in terror).
Facebook Page Makeover
>> prices start at $175
So you have a Facebook fan/business page but it’s boring. Vanilla. Doesn’t really represent your brand. I’m excited to offer a new service tailored just for you — for $175 you’ll get a Facebook cover photo/image, avatar, and up to 4 different “tab” custom images that will help to make your Facebook page POP! In addition, I can also help to set up new pages or apps for your FB page (billed separately from the $175 package price).
FB is *the* social network site to be on and if you’re not staking your claim and promoting yourself there, you’re really missing out on sales potential. Or just plain old customer interactions.
Web/Etsy Banners
A web banner in any size is an effective method of internet advertising that any company can afford. Whether it’s a banner in a forum signature or an email signature or a banner/button placed on a website in a paid position, web banners offer prospective customers a snapshot glance of your business and what you offer.
If you are in need of a banner, please head over to my other site, Banner Betty and check out my offerings there.
