A Message From the Owner...

Should Be Web Design is a home-based, small business specializing in creating websites for other small businesses. I am a working mother with two children, and I have been employed by the Better Business Bureau of Detroit & Eastern Michigan for over six years. For four of those years, I have been solely responsible for their web design and maintenance.

Web design is not just a hobby for me. My passion for it is the reason I opened this company. I have seen many small business websites over the years that I would just love to get my hands on! This is my chance to do that. Whether you already have a website that needs to be redesigned, or if you don't have a website but want one, you have come to the right place. I am here to offer you the personal service that your small business needs. There are no templates to adhere to, and I won't try to sell you features you don't need or want.

I believe that websites, no matter what the size of the business, should be user-friendly, efficient and professional. I believe that a home page longer than two screen lengths is inefficient. I believe that the over-use of frames looks messy and confusing. I believe that broken links reflect poorly on the company behind the website. I believe that easy navigation will help visitors find what they're looking for and stay on your site. And I believe that taking good care of clients builds trust and ensures a lasting business-client relationship.

I do not want to offer hundreds of clients poor, slow service; I want to offer a few clients exceptional service.

If this is the kind of personal attention you would like from a web designer, please take a few moments to browse through the Services section and take a look at my portfolio. I have also included a Small Business Resources section, which includes links to other websites for more helpful information on starting or running your small business.

Thank you for stopping by, and I hope that I'll be able to be of service to you in the near future.
