Site Guidelines 📝

My Promise to You:

• ✅ PRIVACY!!!!! I never collect data and would never do anything against my personal moral code/ethics!! Feel free to browse my sites in safety.
• ✅ No pop-up windows (I hate them too!)
• ✅ Fast loading. My sites are fast like flash. None of that garbage bloat that unfortunately buries down good content. I made a simple site with plain html, css, and js for my high school AP Biology teacher and the site I made for her is already no.1 on Duckduckgo if you search up her name (and I did that without a custom domain).
• ✅ Regular updates (check back weekly!). I’m on top of every project I make. I’m the antithesis of your flaky friends.
• ✅ No ads no nothing. You came for content. I’ll give you content.

My Philosophy:

• No collecting data and respect user privacy. (Looking at you goggle).
• The client is always right. If you aren’t comfortable with any design or function you can always let me know and I will adjust to your liking. YOU and HOW YOU FEEL come first. Yes, brutalist designs can be polarizing and although I love them, I have to make sure YOU are okay first. :)
• Websites Fast like Flash. The reason you hired me in the first place is because you actually want your website out there right? I always use the right tool for the right job and I’ll figure out a solution that gets your needs met with high performance. I’ll even walk you through your new custom built site and compare performance metrics with your competitors who use bloated website slop like wix, framer, squarespace, etc…. or even React.js for a simple landing page….like why essentially ask Superman to help you grab your cat from a tree…? Maybe you are non-technical and that’s cool! I’ll help explain why you need a dev and not use the website slop. It makes a huge difference and we can talk it out through email or a zoom call if you’re still teeter tottering between using a website builder vs hiring a dev.
• IT’S ALL ABOUT YOU!!!!! Website builders and even ai builders can feel so impersonal and plus they always randomly suspend people (Hostinger lol). A website is your home on the web, and you deserve that custom built dream home. Let’s make it happen. I’ll work within your budget and we can figure something out together ❤️. Something fast, SEO optimized, and performance first, yet custom and beautiful.
