Services in Web Design and SEO

Web design and SEO services based in Missoula, MT

I build websites that are professional, usable, and most importantly, effective. Quality design and code, combined with effective search engine optimization from the ground up, gives you a solid foundation for success.

Whether you have an existing website or not, I can work with you and your team to create or improve your web presence with specific, goal-oriented tasks. Here's how:

Web Project Planning

I've successfully managed hundreds of web projects to completion on time and on budget. I know what questions need to be asked and when; not to mention what ones will derail the process.

Information Architecture

Organizing your website with the end-user in mind can be one of the most challenging tasks in website development—that's why it is so critical to have outside help with this step. I've successfully established lexicon and hierarchies for sites with as many as 200,000+ pages of content. Using tried and true methods, together we can design a rich, easy to use website.

Web Design

Website design is an important part of how you communicate your brand to your audience. I can take your business goals and transform them into a clean, clear and effective online message. Your website is the public face of your business: it needs someone with proven design skills and knowledge to perform at its peak.

Coding and Development

A clean design is important visually, but the quality of the code can affect traffic and your bottom line. Coding with industry web standards can really save you money, both in the long and short term. Web standards enable you to:

  • Decrease development time and costs
  • Decrease server space and bandwidth costs
  • Increases accessibility (reach more people, exclude fewer)
  • Increase search engine rankings and traffic
  • Simplify updates
  • Increase site performance
  • Reduce production time

The use of web standards not only helps make higher quality, cheaper sites, but it also opens up possibilities for the future. Sites designed with web standards perform better in different browsers (including phones) and are easier to update, even with a different development team.

Search Engine Optimization

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is where even the best looking websites can fall short. With standards-based code and researched keyword choices any site can drive continuous, high volume traffic to itself. I can organically improve your rankings and teach you how to maintain them by finding your online niche.

Consulting

I can give you an expert review of your process and website that can give you and your team a clear direction to improvement. Some of these reviews are free, so contact me for details.

Training

I can provide training in writing for the web, SEO, design, HTML/CSS, usability, and accessibility. Travel charges may apply outside of Missoula, MT.
