Lighthouse · No. 1
Four back issues, all of them still in print.
Websites I've built for a renovation contractor, a union scaffolding firm, a cat behaviour consultant and a hard techno DJ. Each label shows the site's Lighthouse result on desktop and the month it was measured, where it has one. All four are live, so you can open them and check.
- All four sites live
- Scores measured on the live sites
- Each score with the month it was measured
- Every site hand-coded

Back issues
The grade on each label is a test you can rerun yourself.
A grade is the site's Lighthouse figure on desktop, with the month it was measured. Figures move a little between runs, so run your own and compare.
Lighthouse · No. 1
Renovation contractor, Georgina
Ten years of finished homes, and now a website that shows them.
Lighthouse · No. 2
Union scaffolding, Aurora
A page for every service, and the 24/7 emergency line on all of them.
Lighthouse · No. 3
Feline behaviour consultant, Toronto
A calm first impression for worried cat owners, and a 13-section intake before the first session.
No. 4
MACE: MC-23, Read the back issue
Not graded
Runs on WebGPU, on desktop only, so there's no Lighthouse score
Hard techno producer and DJ
A DJ's portfolio with two working decks you can mix on, in the browser.
Will my site look like one of these?
Each site looks different, because each business is. What they share is that every one is quick on a phone, set up for search, and has a form that reaches a person.
Why does one of them have no score?
MACE's site is a 3D club with two working decks, built with WebGPU for desktop only, so a Lighthouse score wouldn't say much about it. Its label lists facts about the build instead.
How much does a website cost?
Every site is quoted on its scope, so there's no price list. Tell me what you need and you'll have a fixed price in writing within a day, and it doesn't change once I start.
How long does it take?
Templated sites take 2 to 4 weeks and semi-custom 4 to 6. I usually start within a week, and you'll have a preview link in the first one.
Who owns the website when it's done?
You do. The code, the domain, the hosting account and the analytics are in your name from launch day. If you leave, it all goes with you.
What if something breaks after launch?
For two months I fix it for free, along with small changes. After that you can pay me for hosting and edits, or take the code to anyone you like.
Clip and send
Your website could be issue No. 5.

Keep this half. It says I reply within a day.
Good for one fixed quote, within a day.
