Professional Web Design for Grand Forks & the Red River Valley
No fluff, no nonsense. Just fast, reliable websites for farms, contractors, and small businesses in Grand Forks, East Grand Forks, and rural communities throughout northeastern North Dakota and northwestern Minnesota.
What I Build
I build two types of websites, both designed to be fast, affordable, and easy to manage.
Semi-Static Sites
This is my go-to for most small businesses. It's a fast, secure, and low-maintenance website built with PHP and HTML. You get a professional site without the overhead of a complex system.
Starting at $600
WordPress Sites
When you need more power for things like e-commerce, online bookings, or a blog you update yourself, I use WordPress. I build it to be as user-friendly as possible.
Starting at $1,500
Hosting & Maintenance
I host the sites I build on a fast, reliable server. This means I handle the security, backups, and technical stuff so you don't have to worry about it. Clients get full cPanel access, the same experience as mid to high-tier hosting.
$40/mo
Maintenance & Peace of Mind ($40/month)
Included:
- I keep your site running.
- I apply security updates, theme/plugin updates, and software patches.
- I fix small issues (broken buttons, layout shifts, quick tweaks).
- I handle backups and uptime checks.
- I take care of DNS or form issues.
- Basically: you never deal with website headaches again.
Not Included:
- Full rebuilds
- New design packages
- Large expansions
- Marketing/SEO packages
- Complex new development
Free Test Site (Semi-Static Only)
I'll build a working draft version of your semi-static site for free. You only pay if you want to move forward. This lets you see exactly what you're getting before you commit.
Note: Free test sites are available for semi-static sites only due to the initial setup time required for WordPress.
