Web, email, and digital presence
A professional digital foundation that works without requiring your staff to manage it.
What it is
Your website, email infrastructure, and online identity: built, configured, and handed off in working order. This includes new builds, redesigns, and full rebrands. When the organization has changed and the digital presence hasn't caught up yet.
This isn't a template swap. It's the work of understanding what your organization needs to communicate, to whom, and then building the infrastructure to do it, documented so it doesn't require me to keep it running.
Who it's for
Organizations with a website that's outdated, broken, or embarrassing to share with a funder or client. Organizations where staff email routes through a personal Gmail address. Organizations preparing for a campaign, grant application, or public moment that requires a credible digital presence. Solo practitioners whose current site no longer reflects the work they do. Organizations at a rebrand moment: new leadership, new direction, or a name the existing identity doesn't fit anymore.
What it produces
- A website that passes the five-second test: a funder, donor, or prospective client who lands on it knows immediately who you serve and what you do
- Email infrastructure on a professional domain, configured for deliverability (SPF, DKIM, DMARC)
- Brand identity work where needed: visual direction, messaging, and the consistency to carry both through execution
- Handover documentation: enough that you or any competent person can manage it going forward
How it works
- A discovery conversation about your situation. What you have, what's broken, what it needs to do.
- A scoped proposal with clear deliverables, timeline, and cost. No ongoing conversation required before you know what you're getting.
- I build and configure it personally, with updates at natural milestones.
- Handover: walkthrough of everything built, documentation for the pieces you'll touch regularly.
Proof
I've built and managed six WordPress websites for clients across nonprofit, education, and professional services. I led the full rebrand of Blueback Global: logo, website, messaging, and collateral. Work that contributed to the company's subsequent acquisition by TopSource Worldwide.
Common questions
- Do you build on WordPress or something else?
-
Depends on the situation. WordPress when the client needs an editor; static site generators when the priority is speed, security, or low maintenance cost.
- What does email infrastructure mean?
-
SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records so your domain passes deliverability checks, plus a mail routing setup so staff email does not live in a personal Gmail account.
- Can you work with the website we already have?
-
Yes, when the existing site is worth keeping. A rebuild is only the right answer when the current site cannot do what the organization now needs.
- How long does a website build take?
-
Four to twelve weeks is typical, depending on scope and content readiness. The timeline is locked in the proposal before any work starts.
