What separates me from other web designers and marketing consultants?

Born and raised in Philadelphia, PA, I have been active online since I was nine years old. You could say I’m part of a digital latchkey generation. One of the first to grow up completely immersed in the web, albeit the early stages of it. I designed and sold my first website for a Philly area author in 2002 for $75. I was 12 years old.  The internet is second nature to me. I was on all the sites I could find, modifying them and learning all that I could. I was known throughout my school as the web design kid. I eventually turned that into a career path and went to college for web design (way before it was trendy.)

My combination of client relations, business acumen and technical web design and marketing skill is not too common in one person. These traits allow me to help my clients understand their digital marketing initiatives in down-to-Earth, non-techie language and concepts.  Additionally, I’m fully transparent; highly communicative, I don’t answer questions with boiler plate responses and I don’t make promises without all the info.

Each business, client and project is different. A collection of different pieces must come together to form a complete result. I provide flexible services and maintain an understanding that it may take multiple solutions to fulfill your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions about Web Design(ers)

The web design world is full of scammers and unreliable individuals, so this is a fair and common concern. The difference is that chadworks is one person, me! You talk to the person doing the actual work, not a sales rep or a rotating account manager. Pricing is transparent and quoted up
front, communication is in plain English instead of jargon, and you get a free 30-minute consultation first so you can decide if it’s a fit before any money changes hands.

Both. chadworks is based in the greater Philadelphia area but has served clients nationally since 2008, working remotely by phone, email, and screen-share. Where you’re located doesn’t change the price or the process.

Small businesses, solo operators, and individuals across many industries: law firms, authors and writers, professional speakers, musicians and the music industry, contractors and trades (HVAC, landscaping, remodeling, tree service), therapists, real estate, catering, e-commerce, and more. If you have something worth showing the world,
there’s a good chance there’s a fit.

No hidden fees, ever; you get a clear quote before any work begins. That said, there may be some nominal expenses (not fees) that you may not be aware of unless you’ve had a website built professionally before. Most custom websites land between $3,200 and $6,200 depending on scope.

A typical build includes discovery and strategy, custom design, mobile-responsive pages, basic SEO, an SSL certificate, a blog, Google Analytics, and an hour of training so you can update the site yourself. Things that commonly cost extra: ongoing maintenance, advanced SEO or AI visibility/citation campaigns, e-commerce or membership features, large amounts of copywriting, and paid ads. You’ll know which bucket your project falls in before we start.

It depends on scope and how quickly you get me your content and feedback. A simple one-page site can come together in a week; a larger custom build can take many weeks because there’s real design and strategy behind it. If you’re working toward a hard deadline, tell me up front and we’ll map the timeline around it.

I build both custom coded, from-scratch websites and WordPress websites. I no longer work with Squarespace, WIX, Weebly or other DIY website builders.

Both, and more. Beyond design, chadworks offers SEO (15+ years, hundreds of keywords ranked for clients), AI search visibility so you show up on ChatGPT and other AI platforms, brand consulting, email marketing, and paid social/PPC strategy. It can be one project or an ongoing relationship.

A bit of both, but you won’t be left staring at a blank page. It starts with a discovery interview where I pull out your story, your services, and what makes you different, then I shape that into clean, on-brand copy. Already have content? Great, I’ll polish and structure it. Heavy long-form writing, like a stack of blog posts or a big product catalog can be added for an additional fee and quoted up front.

Yes, if your site needs it. WordPress sites needs constant technical maintenance, but custom-coded static sites typically don’t need maintenance beyond the cost of hosting. I am of course available for updating the content or the site’s design and features after launch at an hourly or flat rate depending on the scope of the changes.
