Affordable Small Business Web Design and Development
Stop over-paying for Web Services
Matthew Goodrich Designs offers website options page or a web design portfolio to see many of the hundreds of sites created for the purpose of establishing or expanding an online presence, all at very affordable rates and with many website services and packages available. Most of the companies I work with are right here in San Diego so I'll provide references upon request.
Do you want real, organic Search Engine Optimization solutions with your new site?
Any new web design that I create or personalize for you will include basic organic Search Engine Optimization and a number of other complimentary web services. After you see some results, you may want to tackle some more competetive keywords for your business to land on front page local and national results for SEO terms related to your business.
Most of the very popular search keywords result in extended SEO campaigns and require massive amounts of relevant content, link and regular information updates through ongoing weekly/bi-weekly maintenance. I can provide SEO/SEM services if that is your preference as an add-on to your custom website.
Do you need someone with real world, hands on experience?
Having worked for a number of agencies in San Diego and Los Angeles focusing on 3 main areas, Custom Web Design, Web Development and SEO, that experience has allowed me the opportunity to bring an affordable way of programming to apply to your new online business website through Matthew Goodrich Designs. Get a Starter website and add to it/upgrade as you go once your web presence improves.
Why pay $150 per hour for similar results from an agency?

I don't do cheap web work at cheap prices, I do great work at a great value. Working from a home office allows me to pass the savings and value on to my customers. I don't commute daily, wasting fuel resources and time in traffic and adding to the carbon imprint of a Web Design/Optimization solution. Although I have a separate office space at home, I don't pay office rent and utilities for a separate building.
Additionally, I don't have to provide for a Case/Production Manager, Creative Director, Designer, Optimizer and/or content Updater, I do it all. I have experience in a number of areas regarding Web Design, Web Development and SEO and love having the freedom and opportunity to do what I do at great prices for your small business to grow online.
My rate is $45 per hour and generally billed per hour for design, programming, development, basic updates and maintenance with a maintenance package purchase ( 10 hour intervals).
Why pay good, hard earned money for poor results?
I have seen client's sites that don't remotely resemble what they should, considering the thousands of dollars they've spent having them designed and developed. Image mapped links, and poor HTML/CSS coding usually result in a poorly functioning design. It may appear okay, but to search engines it's garbled and unreadable and will adversly effect your rankings and visibility to customers looking on result pages for your type of product or service.
In many cases I've had to try to fix the mess and bring code up to date for them, taking longer than necessary to do it right when it could have been done right the first time. I offer website redesign, development and updates and maintenance services at affordable rates, considering the alternatives.
My ongoing work with a number of small businesses to improve website usability, interactivity, search engine position and visibility for clients seeking prospective new customers and maintaining an existing customer base.
As a Search Engine Optimization specialist, I have improved site positions in the natural search engine rankings to increase site visits and conversion. more...
