Website Design for Small Businesses in Southeast Missouri

WEBSITES THAT WORK FOR YOU

A good website should make your business easier to understand. It should tell people what you do, help them trust you, and make the next step obvious.
If your current site feels outdated, confusing, half-finished, or even held together with good intentions and a prayer, you’re not alone. A lot of small business websites start that way.
I build WordPress websites for small businesses, nonprofits, and service providers who need something clean, clear, and easier to manage.
No bloated agency process. No mystery tech language. Just a website that makes sense and a process centered around you.

Website Design is a good fit if:

Most of my work is for businesses around Cape Girardeau, Sikeston, Jackson, and nearby Southeast Missouri communities, but I take remote projects when it’s a good fit.

What Your Website Should Actually Do

Your website does not need to be complicated. It needs to help people quickly understand:
That’s the goal! Not a giant site. Not a bunch of trendy sections. Just clear, useful structure that helps real people find what they need.

How the process works

Start with the form

Tell me what’s going on with your current site or what you need built. You don’t have to have perfect wording, a full sitemap, or every photo ready before reaching out.

We talk through the project

If it looks like a good fit, we’ll schedule a short call to talk through goals, timeline, content, and what package makes the most sense.

You get a clear proposal

Before anything starts, you’ll know the scope, price, timeline, and what I need from you. No vague “we’ll figure it out later” situation.

I build, you review

I’ll design and build the site, then send it over for feedback. You’ll have clear revision rounds so we can tighten things up without dragging the project out forever.

We launch

Once everything is approved, I’ll handle launch details, test the basics, and walk you through how to use the site.

You’re not abandoned afterward

You’ll have short post-launch support, and if you’d rather not manage updates yourself, ongoing support is available too.

Tell me what’s going on with your site.

Whether you need a new website, a cleaner version of what you already have, or help figuring out what actually makes sense, this is a good place to start.

You don’t need to have every page, photo, or sentence ready before reaching out. Just tell me what’s working, what’s not, and what you’re hoping your website can do better.

Need a logo too? Or realizing this is more of a quick fix than a full website? I can help with that too.

Dan Rau, Attorney at Law

WEBSITE DESIGN + LOGO DESIGN + LOCAL SEO

When Dan left his former partnership to launch a solo practice, the domain he wanted was still tied to his old firm and his brand had years of recognition attached to it. Starting over entirely wasn’t the answer.

We kept the fonts and colors his existing clients already recognized and rebuilt everything else from the ground up. A completely new site, clearly focused on his solo practice and easy for new clients to understand and act on.

The site ranked locally within weeks of launch.

Skin Medics Medi-spa

WEBSITE DESIGN + BOOKING SETUP

Skin Medics Medi-Spa needed a more polished, reliable website for clients ready to book online. Their old Wix site had the basics, but it felt pieced together and didn’t make appointments or text signups as easy as they needed to be.

I rebuilt the site with a cleaner structure, stronger visual hierarchy, online booking, and a simple text signup path. The result is a more professional digital home that supports the way clients actually interact with the business.

Ginger Miller Art & Design

WEBSITE DESIGN + LOGO DESIGN

Ginger Miller needed a simple online home for her art and floral design work — something clean, personal, and easy to share without turning it into a complicated business website.

I created a small portfolio-style website and simple logo system that let her work stay front and center. The design used soft color, painterly texture, and plenty of white space so the site felt creative without getting cluttered.

Ginger described the finished site as a “beautifully designed micro-site” and said the messaging was fine-tuned until it felt exactly right.

Blue Oak Counseling & Associates

CONCEPT • WEBSITE DESIGN + LOGO DESIGN

A self-directed concept for a fictional counseling practice, built from a clear brief: create a mental health brand that feels calm, trustworthy, and professional without looking cold or clinical.

I designed a tree-based logo system and matching website concept using soft teal tones, grounded typography, clear service sections, and a layout that helps visitors understand their options without feeling overwhelmed.

Concept project. Blue Oak Counseling & Associates is not a real client or active business.

Woof & Whiskers Animal Shelter

CONCEPT • WEBSITE DESIGN + LOGO DESIGN

Woof & Whiskers is a fictional animal shelter concept built around a simple idea: make pet adoption feel warm, clear, and easy to act on.

I created a playful illustrated logo and matching website concept with adoption cards, donation prompts, impact stats, and friendly storytelling sections. The design uses soft colors, rounded shapes, and approachable imagery to make the shelter feel trustworthy without losing its personality.

Dice and Decaf

CONCEPT • WEBSITE DESIGN + LOGO DESIGN

A self-directed concept for a fictional café built around two worlds that already overlap: specialty coffee and tabletop gaming. The goal was to create a brand that felt cozy and inviting, while still leaning into the fantasy and game-night side of the concept.

I designed a hand-drawn logo and matching website concept with a darker, moodier café feel, event-focused sections, and a layout that gives the brand personality without making the experience feel cluttered or gimmicky.
