Website Development

WEBSITE DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT · PADUCAH, KENTUCKY

Distinctive design.
A practical foundation.

I design and build WordPress websites for small businesses, independent professionals, and local service providers in Paducah and surrounding communities. We’ll work out the structure and visual direction together, then refine the details before launch.

You don’t need a finished website plan or polished writing. Bring your questions, rough notes, or existing material. I’ll help organize the content and explain the choices in everyday language. Native WordPress blocks keep your site editable.

New websites from $795 one-time development, plus required hosting & care from $59/month at launch. Standard initial domain registration is included in hosting. Packages have clear page and content allowances; specialized work is quoted separately.

Clear package prices, an agreed scope before work begins, and a website you own after the development balance is paid. Hosting and care are required at launch, billed monthly, with a clear path to move later.

Make your website work for you.

Need a custom feature, a fix for something that’s broken, or help turning an idea into a working website? I help businesses, designers, and agencies solve the technical side of their web projects.

Experience you can build on.

I’ve worked professionally in web development since 2005 and freelanced since 2007. Some client relationships have lasted more than a decade. My work includes specialized development for other web agencies when a project needs capabilities beyond their own team.

Practical help, built around your needs

Custom features. Add functionality that fits the way you work, from tailored forms and shopping tools to systems for managing information.

Repairs and improvements. Track down broken features, update existing functionality, and make your site easier to use and maintain.

Development support. Bring a design to life or work through a technical challenge alongside your designer or agency.

Experience beyond the public-facing page

Much of my work has been behind the scenes: employee records, scheduling, project management, billing, and other custom tools. Those projects aren’t always something I can link to, but they’ve taught me to start with how people will actually use a system.

Whether the job is a small adjustment or a larger build, we’ll talk through what you need, what’s already in place, and the options that make sense before deciding on a scope.

You don’t need a finished website plan or polished writing to get started. Bring your questions, rough notes, or existing material—we’ll work out what you need together. If you already have a website, a link is helpful.
