My site was tired in need of a refresh. Here in Hollywood, actor headshots are very important to up and coming actors and our site needs to stay current and attractive. Blake keeps my site up to date and is responsive to any requests for updates.
As you might expect in a club that is run by vintage car enthusiasts across the country who volunteer their time, our website was in sore need of a revamp. It was clunky and there were dead links everywhere which our members noticed. The redesign was great and Blake helped us implement an online membership portal. Thanks Blake!
My old website looked very dated and didn’t show well on the iPhone. I hired Blake to redesign the site and I love what he did. The process was painless and best of all there was no down time between the old site and the new site. The design of the newsite is bright and cheery, I get compliments all the time!

A Look at Our Web Development Process
Your site’s wireframe, often referred to as the website’s structure or information architecture, is a critical element in building a successful website. It serves as the backbone of the site, influencing everything from user experience to
search engine optimization
(SEO). When building a site, we consider content organization, load times, mobile responsiveness, scalability, security and conversion optimization. We incorporate a responsive wireframe into your website design. We create an SEO-optimized URL structure for unique pages you determine to be most important for your business.
The content of a website is its lifeblood, driving engagement, conveying information, and leaving a lasting impression on visitors. We consider the following items when deciding on your site’s content: brand identity such as colors and logo, compelling graphics and/or photographs, a call to action form, a lead magnet, a blog and other items to increase audience retention times. The content of a website informs, engages, and builds trust with your audience, while also supporting SEO efforts and brand identity.
The importance of SEO (Search Engine Optimization) preparation in website design cannot be overstated. SEO is the practice of optimizing your website to rank higher in search engine results, and integrating it into the design process from the beginning is very important even if you don’t plan on implementing SEO right away. By integrating an SEO friendly structure from the outset, you lay the foundation for your site to later rank well in search results without having to re-design your site.
The website development process doesn’t end at launch; it’s an ongoing journey of refinement and adaptation. Regularly making informed revisions ensures your website remains current, user-friendly, and aligned with your goals and audience’s expectations. Once launched, we provide you with the tools you need to continually refine your website and meet the ever-changing digital landscape to drive success for your business.
