A better website for your business—built with care and ready for customers.
I design and build fast, mobile-friendly websites for owner-operated businesses that need a strong first site or a better version of the one they already have. You work directly with me from our first conversation through launch.
What every website includes
Everything a customer needs to understand your business and take the next step.
Clear services, strong mobile design, your business information, your domain, and simple ways to call, text, or request a quote.
You receive the price, timeline, pages, revision plan, and launch responsibilities in writing before work begins.
Ways I can help
Build your first website, improve the one you have, or save time with a custom tool.
Choose the kind of help your business needs now. Each service is planned and priced as its own project, so you are never paying for extras you do not need.
First website
Give your business a real home online
A polished, mobile-friendly website that makes your business easy to understand, trust, and contact.
- Page structure and plain-language copy
- Services, service area, and clear next step
- Domain and hosting setup or handoff
- Desktop and mobile quality checks
Website repair
Make your current website work better
A focused refresh when your existing site feels dated, is difficult to use on a phone, or makes it harder for customers to reach you.
- One clearly defined customer-facing problem
- A practical redesign or technical repair
- Before-and-after review on common screen sizes
- A written handoff explaining what changed
Data and workflow systems
Save time behind the scenes
A practical data or AI-assisted tool for a recurring task such as tracking inquiries, organizing information, or preparing a useful weekly report.
- Inquiry or quote tracking
- A useful weekly dashboard
- Document or information workflows
- Human-reviewed FAQ or drafting support
How an engagement works
Four straightforward steps from conversation to launch.
Our first call is short and practical. If I can help, you will know what I recommend, what it costs, and what happens next.
- 01
Tell me about the business
We spend about 15 minutes on what you do, who your customers are, and what you want the website or system to accomplish.
- 02
See a clear direction
For website work, I can prepare a private design preview so you can see the look, message, and customer experience before moving forward.
- 03
Agree on the details
Before work begins, you receive the pages or features, price, timeline, revision plan, and the information I need from you in writing.
- 04
Build, review, and launch
I build the agreed work, test it on phones and computers, make the agreed revisions, and help put the finished site or system into use.
Who you are working with
You work directly with me—not through an account manager.
I’m Jonathan Doriscar, an independent developer and researcher. I’m a Northwestern PhD candidate with graduate training in psychology, statistics, and data science, and I’m a recipient of the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship.
I have also worked as a student data science consultant at Northwestern, helping researchers with applied statistics, R and Python, and research computing. For a small-business project, that background means careful work, clear explanations, and thoughtful use of technology.
Academic affiliations and fellowships are background information only. They do not imply that Northwestern University or the National Science Foundation endorses these independent services.
Usually a good fit
- You need a professional first website for an established local business.
- Your current site no longer represents the quality of your work.
- You want to work directly with the person designing and building the project.
- A recurring customer or information task is taking too much of your time.
Have a project in mind?
Tell me about your business and the website you want customers to see.
A short note is enough. If I can help, we will start with a focused 15-minute conversation about the business and the next step.
