Small Business Web Design • Indianapolis & Central Indiana Help customers find, understand, and choose your business.
I build WordPress websites for small businesses in Carmel, Indianapolis, and across Central Indiana. If you have no site, a half-finished one, or one that isn’t bringing in inquiries, customers are missing what they need to contact you.
The opportunity is already online.
Most small businesses now have a website, and customers research local companies online and narrow their choices fast.

What I do
What’s included in small-business web design.
I start with how your business works: your services, your customers, and the action you want visitors to take. That shapes the pages, design, and content.
Strategy & structure
A clear page plan built from what you know about your business.
- Services and customer priorities
- Page structure and navigation
- Calls to action and inquiry paths
Design & content
A visual direction and content visitors can scan quickly.
- Prototype screens and design concepts
- Photos, brand assets, and existing copy
- Customer-friendly page content
WordPress development
Responsive pages that work on phones, tablets, and computers.
- Forms, maps, reviews, and social links
- Domain and hosting configuration
- Testing before launch
Search & growth foundation
The SEO basics that support future visibility.
- SEO titles, descriptions, and headings
- Local-service and business information
- Ongoing maintenance and marketing options
How the project moves
From first conversation to live website.
You don’t need a finished plan. I guide the project from discovery through launch.
Understand the business.
We talk through what you sell, who you serve, and what the site should accomplish.
- Owner conversation
- Review of current online presence
- Existing content and assets
Shape the direction.
You see prototype screens before the full build, so you can react to something real.
- Prototypes and design concepts
- Early refinements
- Your approval
Set up the foundation.
I get the domain, hosting, and WordPress ready.
- Domain and hosting
- WordPress setup
- Security certificate (SSL)
Build the site.
The approved concept becomes a working, responsive website.
- Page development
- Forms and integrations
- Maps, reviews, and social links
Test and refine.
I test it the way a customer would use it, you review it, and we fix the details.
- Mobile and desktop testing
- Your review
- Final edits
Launch and keep improving.
After launch, I can keep supporting the site, its search visibility, and your marketing.
- Go live
- Search setup
- Ongoing support and marketing
After launch
The website can keep changing with the business.
Services change, photos age, and teams grow. Handle updates yourself, or keep me involved.
Website care
WordPress updates, backups, content changes, and help when something breaks.
SEO & local visibility
Ongoing work on page content, business information, and local search relevance.
Email & social marketing
Newsletters, offers, and posts that send people back to your site.
More as you grow
Add pages, forms, or features when they become useful.
