Portfolio / Website Launch & Design
Websites for businesses that need to look like they mean it.
I design and launch websites for small businesses, from the first layout to domains, hosting, and search setup. You work directly with me throughout the project.
Sites I've shipped
Client work, plus one I led rather than built myself — noted where that's the case.
Superior Concrete Inc.
- Goal
- Give a working North Carolina concrete contractor a site that actually reflects the scale of their work and turns visitors into estimate requests, not just a digital business card.
- Approach
- A complete solution, not just a design file: a custom responsive build with clear calls to action and a project gallery, deployed on Vercel with Cloudflare DNS and SSL, and submitted to Google Search Console so the site was set up to actually get found.
- Result
- A live, active marketing site the company uses as its primary way of fielding new project inquiries.
TLowe Outfitters
- Goal
- Build a site for a South Texas hunting ranch that feels as premium as the land and the hunts it's selling — brand-forward, not another generic outfitter template.
- Approach
- End-to-end delivery: large-format photography and a bold type system built into a fully responsive custom site, with domain, hosting, and SEO fundamentals handled as part of the same project — not a separate line item.
- Result
- A distinct, brand-led booking site that stands apart from the generic outfitter-directory look most competitors share.
IEEE NC State Chapter Site
- Goal
- Give NC State's IEEE chapter a site strong enough to compete for best website at SoutheastCon — the organization's biggest regional stage.
- Approach
- Not a personal build — I led the team as Web Development Lead, managing content, information structure, and the people building it, rather than writing the code myself.
- Result
- Won 1st place for Best Website at SoutheastCon 2026.
Everything it takes to go from idea to live
Every project includes the full list below — you're not paying extra later to discover half of it was missing.
Design & branding
Custom Website Design
A layout built around your business, not a reskinned template.
Responsive Mobile Design
Looks and works right on phones and tablets, not just desktop.
Content & Page Layout
Your copy and photos organized so visitors find what they need fast.
Logo Design / Branding Support
Light branding help if you don't already have a mark to build around.
Domain, hosting & security
Domain Setup
Your domain purchased or connected and pointed at the new site.
Cloudflare DNS Configuration
DNS configured through Cloudflare for speed and reliability.
Secure Hosting with Vercel
Deployed on infrastructure built for fast, reliable uptime.
SSL Certificate
HTTPS enabled by default — secure and trusted by every browser.
Search & performance
Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Page structure and metadata built so search engines understand the site.
Google Search Console Setup
Connected and verified so you can see how the site performs in search.
Sitemap Submission
A sitemap generated and submitted so every page gets found.
Google Indexing
Pages requested for indexing so the site shows up sooner, not eventually.
Performance Optimization
Images, fonts, and code tuned so pages load fast on any connection.
Launch & ongoing
Contact Form Integration
A working contact form that sends inquiries straight to your inbox.
Ongoing Maintenance & Support
Straightforward help after launch for updates and small changes.
PROCESSHow a project runs — seven steps, start to finish.
No surprises in between.
- Step 01

- Step 02
Design
Layouts and branding tailored to the client, reviewed with you before a single line of code is written.
- Step 03
Development
Build a responsive, high-performance website from the approved design.
- Step 04
Review
Collect feedback and refine the design before anything goes live.
- Step 05
Launch
Configure the domain, DNS, hosting, and SSL, then deploy — end to end, no drama.
- Step 06
SEO & Indexing
Optimize the site and submit it to Google so it's actually findable once it's live.
- Step 07
Support
Continue helping with updates and maintenance so the site doesn't go stale.
Questions clients usually ask
It depends on scope — a small business marketing site is a very different job from a booking platform with custom features. I give a flat, upfront quote after a short planning call, not a per-hour retainer.
Tell me about the project
A few details now saves back-and-forth later. I'll reply with a flat quote and a realistic timeline.
