We don’t just create logos, we help you build an identity that carries through from website to social media to print. What makes you YOU? What differentiates you? We’ll help you figure that out, and then we’ll design a brand around it.
We were building websites before “www” became a thing. It’s our bread and butter, and we do it well. In this day and age, if people can’t find your website, you don’t exist. Your site acts as your home base online, and it needs to stand out. We can help you with that!
We started coding on a Commodore 64 in the late 80s, and we haven’t stopped. Whether you need front-end development for a responsive, mobile-friendly website or app, or back-end infrastructure and database work, we have you covered.
How do you get followers? How can you get your posts liked and shared? How the heck does something go “viral”? These are questions we’re asked regularly, and we have some insights from our years of experience on social media.
We can help steer you towards the best social media outlets for your target demographic, and we can create visual assets for you to share with your audience.
We love paper: the feel of a high-weight paper as you turn a page, or the feel of quality card stock as you hold a business card between thumb and forefinger. If you need bookmarks, brochures, business cards, letterheads, or any other print assets, we can create them for you. And we can recommend services to do the printing.
Do you need professional photography for your product or restaurant? Well you’re in luck! We have a product-and-food photographer on staff with more than a decade of professional experience.
If you run a restaurant, your website needs great food photos to show off your wonderful menu. We’ll have people salivating as they scroll down the page.
“Being Wicked has ruined me forever working with any other web designers, ever. They were more literate than most writers I know, more responsive than 911, and more clever than anyone deserves to be. Miraculously, they also fail to overcharge.” —STEPHEN J. DUBNER, CO-AUTHOR OF FREAKONOMICS & CREATOR OF THE FREAKONOMICS RADIO NETWORK
So you’re thinking of working with us (yay!), but you’re not sure what to expect. We know that it can be a little scary to invest in a project when you don’t have any idea of what will happen next. To ease your mind, here is our process for building a custom new website to give you a general idea of each step. (Our branding process is similar, but reach out if you have any questions).
We’ll ask you some questions about your goals, likes and dislikes, future plans, target audience, and even your competitors (if applicable). This is our time to get to know you so we can put together the best strategy, suited to you, to expand your reader base or grow your business.
We work with you via phone calls and emails to put together a general plan of action and timeline for the project. We will lay out the goals and expectations for the project so that we are all on the same page.
We’ll present you with a set of custom designs to choose from, then perfect and refine the one you love. If your project also includes branding, we will start with the brand design and then follow with the website designs. This is the really fun part of the process!
We’ll build your site on WordPress (or your preferred CMS), giving you full control to manage your content after launch. We also ensure the site adheres to search engine optimization (SEO) best practices, meets accessibility standards, and is secured against potential threats.
After your site launches, we’ll set up a call to go over how the site works and ensure you feel comfortable managing your content. We’ll also take some time to offer some tips on social media exposure and tying your site and social media profiles together. (We’ll have a few other marketing tips for you to, depending on the best approach for you).
We can also set up a reminder for you to renew your domain name to prevent those unscrupulous types from scooping it up, as well as any other reminders for hosting, etc. And we’ll check in with you on how the site it going. We are always just an email away, but we like to check in as well! We are big into long-term client relationships.
We always send a total-cost proposal for every project. In other words, you’ll know the exact cost of the project before signing anything, without any worries about hourly rates or hidden costs. We’ve been building websites for decades, so there won’t be any surprises. You’ll know exactly what to expect!
