Hi, I'm Shannon 👋 — web designer, full-stack developer, and the person who actually answers your email. Below are the questions small-business owners ask me most, answered the same way I'd answer them if we were sitting across the table. No jargon, no runaround — just straight answers so you can decide if we're a fit. Still stuck on something? Ask me directly — I answer fast. Getting Started How do I get started? The easiest path: take my free 60-second quiz to see what's holding your website back, grab the free eBook that follows, then book a free 20-minute discovery call. Prefer to skip ahead? Book the $45 collaboration meeting or just email me — I reply quickly, usually the same day.


We work primarily with entrepreneurs, local businesses, and individuals.

Yes! We provide full branding support alongside our technical services.

The free 20-minute call is a no-pressure scoping chat — your business, your goals, must-haves, and a ballpark timeline. If we're a fit, the $45 collaboration meeting is the deep-dive: a full 60 minutes where we map your site structure, design direction, and priorities, and you get a firm quote within 2–3 business days.
Is the $45 meeting required — and is it really credited?
The $45 collaboration meeting is where we lock your scope and quote, so it's part of every full project. And yes — it's fully credited toward your final project cost if you move forward, so it doesn't cost you anything extra. Book your meeting here.

Perfect — that's exactly what the discovery call is for. Most of my clients come to me with "I know my website isn't working" and leave with a clear plan. The free quiz helps too: see what's holding you back. Who do you work with? Small businesses, startups, and solo entrepreneurs of every industry — restaurants, contractors, salons, nonprofits, realtors, you name it.

plus AI chatbots and workflow automations. Pick one service or bundle them — it all works toward the same goal: more visibility, more trust, more customers. What platform do you build websites on? Self-hosted WordPress with Elementor Pro — powerful, fast, and flexible, with a visual editor you can actually use after launch. You'll never be locked into a system you can't touch.

Both work. Most meetings happen by phone or video because it's fast and easy, but if you're local to Oroville or Chico, we can meet in person. Everything else — proposals, revisions, training — happens remotely.

Absolutely — that's the "full stack" part. I build custom web applications, client portals, booking tools, dashboards, and integrations built around how your business actually works. See web application development.

Yes! Standalone branding is one of my favorite projects: logo-only packages from $297, full brand identity packages from $697, and Canva brand kit setup from $97. See branding & graphic design.

Yes, and it's honestly where I have an edge: I'm professionally trained in AI systems. I build AI chatbots (from $297), Zapier/Make workflow automations (from $197 per workflow), and Zendesk help centers ($497) — tools that answer customers and do busywork while you sleep.

Yes — from local SEO setup and Google Business Profile optimization to social media management and Google Ads campaigns that put you in front of customers who are already searching. See social media & Google advertising.

Website packages start at $697 for a 3-page Starter Site and range up to $2,497+ for a Premium Full-Stack Build with AI integration. Most small-business projects land in that range, and your firm quote arrives within 2–3 business days of our collaboration meeting. Full breakdown: website design packages.

Every package includes custom design, mobile-responsive layout, foundational SEO, revision rounds, and a 7-day post-launch bug fix window.

Standard projects use a 50% deposit to reserve your start date, with the balance due before launch. For larger projects over $2,000, a 3-milestone payment plan is available. Don't want a deposit at all? Subscription payment plans take a set monthly amount instead — every payment goes 100% toward your project balance, and the plan stops automatically once you're paid in full.  accept PayPal, Stripe (credit/debit), and ACH — and you always get a firm quote in writing before any work begins.

Yes! Subscription payment plans start at $79/month: Plan Monthly What's included🌱 Basic$79/mo1–3-page custom website, basic SEO, starter branding + logo⭐ Professional$129/mo4–6-page website, mini brand kit, SEO included, free hosting💎 Premium$249/mo7–12 pages or a full web app, full brand kit, priority support No 50% deposit required — every monthly payment goes 100% toward your project balance, and your subscription stops automatically the moment it's paid in full. No surprise charges, ever. See subscription plans.

 Custom design tailored to your brand (no cookie-cutter templates), fast load speeds, mobile-ready layouts, built-in SEO essentials (meta tags, sitemap, robots.txt), your package's revision rounds, and a 7-day post-launch bug fix window. Qualifying packages also include a training session and handoff document.

No. Clear, upfront pricing is kind of my thing. Extra services are listed openly — things like extra revision rounds ($75/round), hosting setup ($97 one-time), or domain/DNS configuration ($47 one-time) — and nothing gets added without your approval.

Yes — after your site launches (or once your subscription plan is paid off), monthly care plans keep your site updated, backed up, and secure: Basic Care Plan $97/month and Growth Care Plan $197/month with priority support.

I'm available à la carte at $75/hour.

Starter Sites: 7–10 business days. Business Pro: 14–21. E-Commerce: 21–30. Premium builds are scoped with a firm schedule. Prompt feedback and assets from you keep everything on track — and you'll always know your timeline before we start.

Three simple steps:
(1) we meet and map your vision,
(2) I build a preliminary design draft for your approval — so the direction is right before any deep development starts, and
(3) I go into full production and hand you a polished, launched site. You'll get updates at every step and review everything on a staging link before it goes live
.

Every package includes revision rounds — 1 on Starter, 2 on Business Pro, 3 on E-Commerce, and scoped flexibility on Premium.
Need more?
Extra rounds are $75 each. My goal is simple: the final result matches your vision.

Your goals, your brand materials (if you have them), and your content — text, photos, logos.

Don't have it all? No stress: I include copywriting support and can point you to great stock photography. You'll never be left staring at a blank page alone.

Yes! Sites are built on Elementor's visual editor, and qualifying packages include a training session and handoff document so you can edit text, images, and pages confidently.

Care plans start at $97/month. What happens if something breaks after launch?
Every package includes a 7-day post-launch bug fix window — anything that's not right, I make right, free. After that, care-plan clients get ongoing support and monitoring, and everyone can request help à la carte ($75/hour) or same-day emergency fixes ($150 flat + hourly).

You do — 100%. Hosting and domain are set up under your own account, so you keep full ownership of your site, your data, and your domain. No hostage situations here. Do you provide hosting?
I help you set up reliable hosting (Site Ground, WP Engine, Cloud ways, and similar) under your own account — so you own everything. On a subscription plan, hosting is included per your tier — the Professional plan includes free hosting. See subscription plans

Fast — usually the same day. When you work with me, you get my direct email and real answers from a real person. No ticket black holes, no "your call is important to us."

Priority email and chat support (24-hour response) is included in the Growth Care Plan, and there's a support portal for ongoing help.
