Howdy!
I'm Mike Wilson, a Website designer living in Iron Station, North Carolina. I specialize in standards based XHTML & CSS, user-centered design, and custom WordPress theme development.
I have over 13 years of experience with Web and graphic design, user experience, and creative direction.
Engage Your Audience
Your Website is your conduit to and engage your audience 24/7. Let me help you to strengthen your relationship with current customers and to build a new customer base and promote your products or services.
Beautiful, Elegant Design
Great design is more than just "good looks". It's one part aesthetics, one part information architecture, and one part usability combined to provide an excellent user experience. I'll help you avoid the costly pitfalls of bad design.
On Time & On Budget
You tell me your deadline from the start and I'll tell you if it's doable. If I say I can deliver on schedule, I will every time. And as a freelancer I have a lower overhead than big design firms which means I can pass those savings on to you and that I can accommodate almost any budget.
Services
* Website, Logo & Print Design * XHTML & CSS Development * Custom WordPress Themes * User Experience & Interface Design * Business Cards & Brochures * Search Engine Optimization * Social Media Consulting
Have a project you need help with? I'm currently available for work and taking on new clients and projects. Say “howdy!” and tell me a little about your needs.
