Two heads are always better than one. Whether it’s your own site or your client’s, I know that as creatives, it’s hard to hand over total control (at least until we know each other better). As a trusted partner, I will help you tackle a project that seems overwhelming—we’ll take it off the back burner and get it done.
We kick-off each project with a strategy session so I can understand your vision and translate your ideas into a website that gets results, and we wrap-up with a personalized training on how to easily keep the site up-to-date using WordPress.
Whether you need website design, website development or both, I’m your gal.

Frequently Asked Questions
A custom design starts from a blank slate. Every decision is made specifically to suit your needs, from colors to fonts, layout to structure. Every single component is entirely customized for you. With a custom design, your website will be one-of-a-kind. It’s all about getting the right message across and keeping the site structure lean and efficient without unnecessary page bloat.
Well, a pre-built theme might cost a bit less—but it’s generic. I specialize in custom-designed themes because it makes anything possible. Doesn’t that sound fun? Instead of trying to mold something into something else, why not start fresh and build it exactly the way you want? Custom design isn’t just about the look—but also how the site functions. Pre-built themes can have baked-in functionality that you’re probably not going to use. It won’t be streamlined or efficient for your needs. A custom-designed theme ensures you can edit everything you need to edit, easily. Many of my clients are designers, and they want a site that doesn’t look like everybody else’s. Look under the hood of my custom-crafted WordPress websites.
Unlikely. But maybe…if you agree to fold all my laundry for the rest of time. See, the thing about themes is—they’re not custom websites—which means they don’t reflect you as well as they could. And I’m all about showing off your unique coolness.
Check out the awesome packages I created to answer this very question. Need a custom quote? Fill out my form.
I take on 2–3 new projects a month and generally book work out 4–6 weeks in advance. Once you provide the copy and we have our kickoff call, your fabulous website will be up and running in about 8–12 weeks.
Nope, but I will guide you in choosing the best host for your website’s needs.
I don’t provide SEO as a service (such as figuring out what keyword phrases you want to rank for and integrating those into your website’s content—I can recommend some great SEO consultants if you want help with this).
I do build SEO friendly websites in terms of page structure, linking, redirects, breadcrumbs, and helping Google understand your site. The custom WordPress site will include the Yoast SEO plugin which allows you to define page titles and meta descriptions as well as perform SEO analysis on each page and post on your site. I will also hook up your site to Google Analytics and Google Search Console.
During our training session, I’ll go over how to use the Yoast SEO plugin so you can work on optimizing your site for search engines yourself.
Start with copy. I’ll repeat: start with copy! It helps drive the design—and copy-first is part of my process. If you need help, contact Connect with Copy.
Abso-freakin-lutely. Is there any other way? When we work together, your website will be simple to navigate with easy-to-read content on any and every device imaginable.
Yay! Fill out my form and we’ll chat.
My clients say the nicest things.
“Thank you for your steadfast support and expertise.
“You took the original vision, a handful of images, and our colors and crafted something that was so much more. The quality of our site has given me the confidence I need to write new blog posts and drive traffic to it as a resource. Often, people I speak with that have navigated the pages offer unprompted praise. I am grateful for the initial work and the ongoing maintenance and revisions we make together.”

“Working with Jill has been a smooth, effective, happy process from start to finish.
“She is a great listener who took the time not just to understand what we wanted done, but also to get to know our ‘organizational personality.’ She executed what we wanted flawlessly. We tried not to have too many last minute, ‘urgent’ requests, but they did happen (sorry, Jill!)—and she always helped immediately! Knowing that she's watching over our site's backend has also been amazing so we don't have to worry about it.”

Jill was great to work with—collaborative, consultative, capable. I’m thrilled with the site—it was a great use of my marketing dollars.”

“From the start, I warned Jill about my nit-pickiness, but she handled my perfectionistic tendencies with patience and good humor.
“Typically, when I design a website and hand it off to a developer for coding, I’m prepared to view a semi-rough version of what I’ve created and subsequently type up a long punch list of changes. That never happened with Jill: she understood my vision and nailed it on the first try.”
Robin H. Ridleyparfaitstudio.com
“I adore you, Jill Anderson!
“You are a genius—cool, patient and phenomenally talented. Everybody raves about you, and I’ve gotten to witness your smarts through our work together—but seeing your process first-hand was an honor. It’s not just about the amazing results (it’s pretty damn amazing!)—but all the care, big ideas, concepts and thoughtful details you added to make this extra-special.”
