How Can I Help You?


Custom Web Site Design

Do you need a new web site or an upgrade to one you already have? Is your web presence a social media page that looks and works like everyone else's, and now you want something unique? Maybe you have even tried out some site builders and aren't satisfied with the results. When you want a custom look and the canned options just aren't good enough, I can help. See my portfolio for examples.

WordPress: The Basics and Beyond

Has someone told you you need to use WordPress? It's not always needed, but it might be, depending on your requirements. Maybe you already do use WordPress and you now want to sell things on your site. Maybe it's a new look you want, and you've already tried 100 themes and just can't find the right look. I customize themes to get custom looks. Do you want to do something on your WordPress site but don't know how? I can help. My portfolio includes WordPress sites, some with unique features and all with a custom look.

Email on Your Own Domain Name

For years you might have been using email from Google, Yahoo!, Microsoft, or other 'free' email services. With a few exceptions, if you're getting a service for free, you (or rather, your data) are the product. Many people are tired of services that don't work like they'd like, arbitrarily change at any time, and violate their privacy by surveilling everything they do and selling the data to advertisers. If you are interested in taking ownership of your email and even running it on your own domain name, I can help.

Editing & Wordsmithing

Is there something you want to say but you just can't find the right words? Do you need some editing assistance? If written English is not your strongest skill, clear and concise writing has long been one of my specialties. Do you need help writing for your audience so they can search the Internet and find you? Despite what SEO (Search Engine Optimization) 'experts' often say, remember that Google says to write for people, not search engines.

Portfolio


I've created Web sites for a diversity of clients: energy and transportation consultants, estate sale managers, restaurateurs, artists and artisans, photographers, art galleries and appraisers, manufacturers, musicians and bands, book distributors, fashion and graphic designers, and nonprofit organizations. Below are a few, with links to live sites or sites archived at the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine:

About


I’m not the typical Web designer because my multidisciplinary background includes art, engineering, software development, writing, photography, and technical publishing. This varied experience allows me to quickly understand your business or organization.

With over 25 years of experience using a wide range of software on UNIX, Mac, Windows, and Linux computers along with various mobile devices, I’m at home with digital technology. I use a variety of software tools to quickly create Web sites that will work on today’s and tomorrow’s browsers and devices. The specific tools are not as important as the understanding of the concepts that lie behind them. Tools come and go but concepts remain.

Depending on project size and time frame, I draw as needed on a network of skilled professionals (copy editors, graphic artists, marketing specialists, programmers, database experts, audio and video experts, and more) who apply their talents to your site.

Founded in Denver and now based in Lakewood, Colorado, Claro Systems has been in business since 1997.
