Custom Website Design for Delaware Businesses
I build professional, SEO-friendly websites from the ground up for small businesses in Wilmington, Dover, and across Delaware. Every site is custom-coded, mobile-responsive, and designed to help you get found online and turn visitors into customers.
What I Build
Mobile-Responsive Web Design
I create modern designs that look great and are easy to use on any device, from desktops to smartphones.
SEO-Friendly Web Design
Built with a strong SEO foundation, including clean code and fast load times, to help customers find you on Google.
Business Website Development
Beyond a simple brochure, I develop sites with lead capture forms, CTAs, and automation to support your business goals.
Interactive Tools & Calculators
Engage your customers and help them find answers or make decisions instantly with custom-built tools.
Admin Dashboards & Data Management
View, manage, and analyze your business data in one clean, easy-to-use interface.
Custom Features & Workflows
When off-the-shelf tools don't fit your process, I build the exact solution that you actually need.
Who This Is For
Local businesses getting online for the first time
Whether you're a contractor, a restaurant, a salon, or a professional services firm in Delaware, I can get you online with a site that actually represents your business well.
Businesses that need more than a template
If you've outgrown Wix or Squarespace and want something custom-built with real performance and SEO results, that's where I come in.
Startups with custom application needs
Need something beyond a standard website? I build custom tools, calculators, dashboards, and web applications. My background includes 25 years of building complex web products.
Nonprofits and community organizations
I work with organizations doing meaningful work in our community. If budget is a concern, check out my Community Website Sponsorship Program.
Why I Build Custom Instead of Using Templates
A lot of web designers will put your logo on a WordPress theme and call it a custom site. I don't do that. Every website I build is coded from scratch, and here's why that matters for your business.
Faster Load Times
No bloated plugins or unnecessary code. My sites consistently score 95+ on Google PageSpeed, which means faster experiences for your visitors and better search rankings.
Better SEO Results
Clean code, proper heading structure, structured data, and fast page speeds are the foundation of good SEO. These aren't add-ons. They're built in from day one.
You Own Everything
No proprietary platforms or lock-in. Your site is yours. No monthly fees you can't get out of, no hostage situations with your own content.
Transparent Pricing, No Surprises
I believe you should know what you're paying before any work starts. Starter websites begin at $900, business websites at $2,000, and custom projects at $3,500. Every project comes with a fixed-price proposal. No hourly billing, no surprise add-ons, no ongoing fees you didn't agree to.

Website Design FAQ
How much does a custom website cost?
Starter websites start at $900 for a professional one-page site. Business websites start at $2,000 for a multi-page site with enhanced SEO and lead capture. Custom projects with advanced features start at $3,500. You'll always get a fixed price upfront before any work begins.
How long does it take to build a website?
Starter websites are typically completed in 7 to 10 business days. Business websites usually go live within 2 to 3 weeks. Custom projects vary based on scope, but I'll give you a clear timeline in your proposal.
Do you use WordPress or website templates?
No. Every site I build is custom-coded from scratch. That means faster load times, better SEO performance, and a design that's unique to your business. No generic templates, no bloated plugins.
Will my website show up on Google?
Every site I build includes a strong SEO foundation: clean code, fast page speeds, proper heading structure, meta tags, and structured data. For my Delaware Valley Hardwoods client, this approach resulted in #1 Google rankings for 13 competitive search terms without any paid advertising.
What if I already have a website that needs updating?
That's exactly what my website redesign service is for. I can modernize your existing site to improve its design, performance, and mobile experience.
Do I own my website when it's done?
Yes. When the project is complete, the website is yours. I don't lock you into proprietary platforms or ongoing contracts. You own the code, the design, and the content.
