About Me

I'm Stephen — an independent web developer crafting custom websites that look premium, load fast, and turn visitors into customers.

I work directly with businesses, creators, and personal brands to design and build bespoke websites — no templates, no shortcuts. Every project is hand-coded with a focus on responsive design, premium UI/UX, and conversion-driven strategy. From the first wireframe to the final deploy, my goal is always the same: a website that works as hard as you do.

I'm also SEO Certified through HubSpot Academy — so the sites I build aren't just made to look good, they're structured from the ground up to rank in search and get found by the right people.

Every project is unique, so I provide a custom quote rather than one-size-fits-all pricing. After a quick chat about your goals, scope, and the number of pages, I'll send a clear, all-in price with no surprises. You'll always know exactly what you're paying before any work begins.
Lighthouse is Google's official tool for grading websites on Performance, Accessibility, Best Practices, and SEO. Each category is scored 0–100, and the results directly influence Google search rankings, ad costs, and how quickly visitors bounce. Most websites score in the 50s–70s. Every site I build is engineered to score 90+ across the board — the scores on the project cards above are real numbers you can verify yourself at pagespeed.web.dev.
Most projects are designed, built, and launched in 1–2 weeks. Timelines can shift depending on scope and how quickly content and feedback come back — but I keep things moving and communicate clearly at every step.
Yes — I offer monthly maintenance plans to keep your site fast, secure, and up to date. Whether it's content updates, tweaks, or peace of mind, there's a plan to fit. Prefer a build-only project? That works too.
Just a sense of your goals and any content you already have — logo, text, images, and examples of sites you like. Don't have everything ready? No problem. I'll guide you through it and help fill the gaps.
Absolutely. I can set up hosting, your domain, and SSL so your site is live, secure, and fast — and walk you through anything you'd rather manage yourself. You're never left to figure out the technical side alone.
Custom business sites, personal brand sites, portfolios, and high-converting landing pages. Each one is built for performance and SEO, fully responsive on every device, and tailored to your brand — never a generic template.
Always. Every site is built mobile-first and tested to look and perform flawlessly across phones, tablets, and desktops. Most of your visitors will be on mobile — so that experience is a priority, not an afterthought.
