If you are a small industrial or retail company or service business (or just an individual in need of a site) and you're looking for a simple and effective presence on the Web, I can help you achieve it. Here are some examples of pages I've worked on:

• Classic Movies - My site devoted to films of the Golden Age of Hollywood, formerly part of About.com, where Roger Ebert declared it to be one of the two best classic film sites on the Web. Ranks #1 on Google for the search phrase "classic movies"!
  
  
• Hardboiled Heaven - My site devoted to hardboiled crime and mystery novels.
  
  
• Ultimate Systems - An industrial company in Madison Heights, Michigan.
  
  
• Ladies of the Evil Dead - A fun site for three women who starred in the groundbreaking horror film; responsible for both writing and design.
  
  
• Theresa Tilly - Created for one of the three women mentioned above, an actress and voiceover talent.
  
  
• Marc H. Bailey & Associates - A medical practice consulting firm in California.
  
  
• At Home PC - Site for a computer repair and consulting firm.
  
  
• F.A.I.R. - A mirror for a site I created for a citizens group. (The referendum passed.)

My normal rate is $200 a page for a Web site of 5 pages or more, plus $50 an hour (or portion of an hour) for updates, but this is negotiable depending on the size and scope of your project. My service includes creating and uploading your pages, submitting your site to search engines that do not charge for listings, and showing you how to make minor revisions on your own. (It's not brain surgery!) Whenever possible, I will take advantage of existing free Web services, such as MapQuest.

All graphics, other than page graphics such as buttons, are normally provided by my clients from existing materials. Any original graphics creation or photography, cgi scripts or database creation and management, or complex javascripting will involve additional cost. (If you don't know what some of that is, you probably don't want it.) If you are interested in talking further about my Web design services, please send me an email. If you want to know more about my philosophy regarding Web design, see the two articles linked at the top of the left-hand column.
