About
Hi, I'm Justin.
I build websites for small businesses by hand, owned outright — with a living blog to keep them growing coming soon. One person, from the first conversation to the day you get the keys. I'm in Port Huron, Michigan, and happy to work with you wherever you are.
How this started
It started with a blog post.
A while back I needed a lawyer. Not a fun reason, but I went looking the way anyone does now — at night, on my phone. The firm I hired won me over before I ever called: an old post on their blog answered the exact question I was typing in.
That stuck with me. A good site earns the call, and a lot of that quiet work is the writing on it — the page that happens to answer the thing someone's worried about at 11pm. Most businesses don't have that writing. The ones who do often rent it from a national company that fills the site with filler that sounds like nobody.
So that's the job: build a business a site it actually owns, built by hand to earn the call. Keeping it alive with a living blog in your voice is the next piece I'm bringing online. I'd rather do that well for a handful of businesses than crank out templates for hundreds. When you hire me, you get me — not a salesperson up front and a stranger doing the work.
How I work
What you can count on.
- You own it
- Every project ends with you holding the keys — the code, the domain, and the content. I don't rent you your own website.
- Built by hand
- No templates, no page-builder, no AI sameness. I write it. That's why it can look like you and not like everyone else.
- A living blog (coming soon)
- The site won't go stale. Articles in your voice, under your byline, that answer the questions clients actually have and bring the right ones in.
- One person who answers
- The person who builds it is the person who picks up the phone next year. Accountability with a name on it.
Where I work
Port Huron, and anywhere you are.
I'm in Port Huron, Michigan — where the lake meets the river. I know what it's like to run a real business in a real town, and I'd rather meet for coffee than schedule a fifth video call.
But local is where I'm rooted, not a fence around who I work with. The work is the same whether you're down the street or across the country — built by hand, and yours to keep.
Let's talk
Tell me what you're working on.
I'll tell you straight what it would take — and if you don't need the expensive thing, I'll tell you that too.
