Web Design & Development

Your website is losing you money. Let's fix that.

Most business websites look fine but don't perform. Slow load times, buried content, weak calls to action, and zero search visibility. I build websites that do the opposite: rank on Google, load fast, and turn visitors into paying customers.

Jeremy Buff — Technology Strategist

I build fast, modern websites that rank and convert. Not template garbage. Every site is custom-built from scratch to work the way your business works.

The problem with most business websites.

You paid for a website. Maybe you even paid a lot. But if it's not bringing in leads, ranking in search, or loading in under 3 seconds, it's costing you more than it's earning.

53%

Visitors leave if a page takes more than 3 seconds to load

Page builders and bloated themes are packed with unused code. Your visitors leave before the page finishes loading.

75%

Of users judge a business by its website design

Generic design with stock photos tells customers you're just like everyone else. First impressions happen in seconds.

0.63%

Of searchers click results on page 2 of Google

If your site isn't built for search from the ground up, you're invisible. Technical SEO and content strategy matter from day one.

70%

Of small business websites have no call to action

A site without clear next steps is a brochure, not a sales tool. Every page should guide visitors toward a specific action.

If any of this sounds familiar, your website isn't working for you. It's working against you.

A website is a brochure. A web presence is your best salesperson, working 24/7.

What You Get

Not just a pretty site. A site that actually performs.

Every site I build is custom-designed and hand-coded. No templates, no page builders, no drag-and-drop shortcuts. Here's what that means for your business.

Custom Design, From Scratch

Your site is designed specifically for your brand, your audience, and your goals. Not a template with your logo swapped in. Every layout decision is made with purpose.

Sub-2-Second Load Times

I build lightweight, optimized sites that score 90+ on Google PageSpeed. No bloated themes, no unnecessary JavaScript, no slow third-party plugins dragging things down.

SEO From the Ground Up

Semantic HTML, structured data, optimized metadata, fast load times, and Core Web Vitals compliance. Search visibility isn't added later. It's built into every page.

Built to Convert

Clear user journeys, strategic calls to action, and measurable conversion goals on every page. Your site should generate leads, not just look nice in a portfolio.

Works on Every Device

Responsive design that looks right on phones, tablets, laptops, and desktops. Built to WCAG accessibility standards so everyone can use your site.

AI-Powered & Connected

AI chat assistants trained on your business, self-generating content, and connected automations. Your site doesn't just sit there. It works for you around the clock.

The Bigger Picture

I don't just build websites. I build web presences.

A website on its own is a brochure. A web presence is a system that attracts the right people, earns their trust, and moves them to take action. That's what I build.

Strategy & Positioning

Before I touch a pixel, I figure out who you're trying to reach, what they care about, and how to position you as the obvious choice.

Design & Development

Custom design, hand-coded development, SEO architecture, and conversion-focused layouts. The website itself, built right.

Automation & AI

Your site generates the leads. Then automations and AI agents work them: follow-ups, scheduling, intake, and more.

Growth & Optimization

Analytics, A/B testing, content updates, and ongoing performance tuning. Your web presence gets better over time, not stale.

Most agencies hand you a website and disappear. I build the whole system, and I stick around to make sure it keeps working.

Why It Matters

AI changed the tools. It didn't change what makes a site work.

AI website builders and templates are better than they've ever been. Your competitors know that too. When everyone has the same tools, the difference comes down to who knows what to build and why. That's where 20+ years of web design experience, programming, and data architecture comes in.

I use AI every day. It makes me faster and more capable. But the decisions that actually move the needle, which pages to build, how to structure content for search, where to place calls to action, how to architect the data layer, those come from decades of building web presences that perform.

Whether you call me a freelance web designer, a web developer, or a technology partner, what you're getting is someone who treats your web presence like a business asset, not a deliverable.

Frequently asked questions.

How much does a custom website cost?
It depends on scope and complexity. A focused business site with a few key pages is a different conversation than a full ecommerce store or a site with custom AI integrations. I'll give you a clear estimate after a discovery call so you know exactly what you're investing in.
Why choose a custom website over a template or AI builder?
Templates and AI builders get you online fast. But when your competitors use the same tools, the results are interchangeable. A custom site is built around your business, your customers, and your goals. It performs better in search, converts better, and gives you a competitive advantage that a template can't.
How long does it take to build a custom website?
Most projects take 6 to 12 weeks from discovery to launch. Complex sites with ecommerce, custom integrations, or AI features may take longer. You'll have a clear timeline before we start.
Do you work with businesses outside Orlando and Tampa?
Yes. While I'm based in Central Florida and most of my clients are in the Orlando and Tampa metro areas, I work with businesses across Florida and beyond. Web design doesn't require being in the same zip code.
What happens after my site launches?
Launch is the starting line. I offer ongoing optimization, content updates, AI refinement, and performance monitoring so your site keeps improving. Most of my clients transition into a monthly partnership after launch.
Do you offer SEO as part of web design?
SEO is built into every site I create. That includes semantic HTML, structured data, optimized metadata, internal linking strategy, and Core Web Vitals performance. For ongoing SEO work like content strategy and ranking improvements, I offer that as a continued service.
