Static Website Development

I build fast, stable, and mobile-friendly websites using the 'Eleventy' or 'Jekyll' static site generators.

This makes them a great option for most business websites where the content changes less frequently and performance and clarity is very important.

How It Works

  1. You choose a template or employ a designer
  2. I build your website using Eleventy or Jekyll
  3. Its content is stored in simple text files
  4. You can edit the content yourself or send me changes
  5. Backups are handled automatically
  6. You get the full source code
