Web Site Design for Small Businesses

Building Custom Web Sites for Humboldt County Businesses (and the rest of the world) Since 1996

If you're hungry, which would you prefer?
A warm, moist, chewy chocolate chip cookie lovingly made from scratch and fresh from the oven, or some stale, processed cookie you pulled out of a bag from the local supermarket?

Most of us would choose the homemade cookie because we know the quality is better. That's the same decision your customers are going to make when looking at your web site. Your web site is a reflection of your business and may be the first impression your customers get of your business. A web site should be treated as more than just a cheap way to advertise. When used properly, a web site may be the most powerful marketing tool your business has. Aesthetic Design & Photography can provide you with everything you need to get started, or to improve the web site you already have.

Because we're a small business, we specialize in creating web sites for other small businesses. You are invited to review our web design philosophy to see if we are a match for you. Building, maintaining and marketing a web site requires many skills and services. Our services page details everything that Aesthetic Design & Photography can provide to get you started and keep you running.

Aesthetic Design & Photography has designed numerous web sites for Humboldt County businesses, but we've also designed sites for businesses throughout the nation, and even several international companies. Much of our business comes from referrals from happy clients, and several clients have been repeat customers, coming back for a second or third web site. We are proud of our ability to work with and train customers who are new to the web. For new clients we are happy to schedule at no charge a one hour consulation to discuss your needs and our services. Through referrals, we have worked with many clients outside of Humboldt County and the Bay Area, and we have satisfied customers who had their web sites completed without ever meeting us.

Designing for the web is unlike any other type of publishing, and it requires constant research to keep up to date with the latest tips, tools and rules. On the Web Design Tools page we list some of our favorite web design programs and online tools. The Web Design Links page provides links to some of our favorite online newsletters and resource pages for HTML, CGI, search engine optimization, and other web design concerns.
