Why not just DIY?

Wix, Squarespace, or a real designer?

DIY website builders look cheap until you've spent forty hours fighting a template, ended up with a slow, generic site, and still don't show up on Google. They're fine for a hobby. For a business that needs customers, the math is different: a site that brings in even one extra client a month pays for itself many times over.

Hiring a big agency swings the other way: high retainers, account managers, and a junior somewhere actually building your site. With Whitcomb Design you get the middle ground that most Fort Collins owners actually want: custom, professional work at a fair fixed price, built and supported by one person who knows your project and picks up the phone. You're not a ticket in a queue; you're the only client I'm talking to right now.

And because every site is built lean and SEO-ready from the first line of code, you're not paying later to fix what a template got wrong. It's done right the first time: fast, findable, and yours.

Why Whitcomb

A local designer who actually answers the phone

I'm Carson, a Fort Collins designer and CSU student. I started Whitcomb Design because too many local businesses get stuck with slow, cookie-cutter sites that don't bring in customers. I build fast, modern, honest websites, explain everything in plain English, and I'm right here in Fort Collins, not an overseas agency you'll never reach.
