Melissa Geissinger, Web Designer

Melissa GeissingerI have been building websites professionally for 17 years, and specialized in WordPress for the last 10. I have helped clients design and build new websites and brands, redesign existing outdated websites, and wireframe, architect, and plan for impactful written and visual content. I am available to train you on how to update your own site, or do it for you if you prefer. I have expert knowledge of CSS and HTML and know my way around Javascript and PHP. I’m available to customize themes like Divi or Elementor but specialize in designing and building custom Beaver Builder websites from the ground up. I take a responsive mobile-first approach to UI/UX design and build dynamic sites that look good no matter what device you’re viewing it from.

Background

I’ve been building websites since before there was Google. I taught myself HTML from a book! An entrepreneur and artist myself, I’ve got an eye for site architecture and building something that’s going to not only look good, but work to achieve the results you are after in growing sales or building your brand. 

I’ve worked on a variety of different projects over the years from small one-page microsites that I’ve thrown up in an afternoon, to large ecommerce sites for national brands, and local government-run programs with custom programming. I’m available for anything from small edits to massive reimaginings and overhauls. 

Collaboration 

What sets me apart is that I prefer working collaboratively with my clients. I am known for building websites in one day from start to finish. I even wrote a book on the process: see 1 Day Web Designer on Amazon. Ask me about what’s needed for this process.
