If we’ve ever worked together, you already know this about me: I ask a lot of questions. The first time a client joked that I asked more questions than their kids, I laughed, and then kept going. Because here’s the truth: good web designers aren’t trying to waste your time; we’re trying to save it. …
Ever notice how a website project can go from “smooth sailing” to “why is everything on fire?” in the span of one email thread? Many of those blow-ups start when clients don’t know the unspoken rules devs live by: content comes first, lock the scope early, and so on. But, if you don’t build sites …

While big agencies can be a …
If you’re here, you’re probably at that crossroads where you’re wondering whether to roll up your sleeves and tackle building your website yourself or bring in a pro.
