Our Secret Sauce

Success is a client who is in love with their new website. To make that happen, we have a “Secret Sauce recipe” to make your website awesome. While these are not the only ingredients of our Secret Sauce, they are some of the most important. It’s what sets us apart from other web design companies.

1. Websites That Are Fun to Visit

Imagine this: you just finished a book from a promising new author. The writing was spectacular, the scenes vivid, and the characters almost as real as your family. You eagerly look up the author’s website, hoping to find out when her next book is coming out.

What’s this? You must have typed in the wrong address. The website is terrible! Where’s the witty banter that made you laugh? The text reads more like an obituary from 1782 than anything your beloved author could have penned. Talk about disappointing!

Unfortunately, this isn’t a rare case. Lots of great authors have boring websites. Our authors don’t. We coach our authors through every step of the online platform building process.

2. Websites That Are Easy to Update

Here’s the deal. We want you to own your website. This means you feel comfortable updating your website, yourself. It’s your voice that needs to get out to your readers.Of course, you can pay us to update it for you, but we get excited when clients discover the joy of managing their own website. Not only will your site will be easy to update, but your Website Package will come with free one-on-one training to teach you how to use and update your site.

We have helped clients from Austin, TX to Saint Petersburg, Russia to learn to update their websites. For an insider’s look at how easy our sites are to update, see what our clients are saying.

3. Websites That Are Beautiful

We don’t like ugly websites either. You couldn’t pay us to build one. There’s enough junk on the internet without us adding to the pile. We build beautiful websites that are helpful, interesting, and fun to visit.

Great looking websites don’t need to be expensive. For more on our approach to web design, see our CEO’s article Why print designers fail at web design.
