Jennifer Nessler is the founder of Make Waves Design, located in Stockton, and has been helping businesses build their online presence for nearly 25 years. Born and raised in Lodi, her journey into web design began in the mid-1990s where she stepped in to create a website after an outside design firm failed to meet expectations. That moment sparked a career focused on helping businesses reach new audiences online.
Today, Jennifer and her team continues to design strategic websites that help businesses grow, connect with customers, and stay competitive in the digital world.
See how thoughtful design and strategy come together. These projects showcase how we help businesses create websites that look great, build credibility, and attract customers.
Read some of the many 5-star reviews we’ve received from Stockton businesses and beyond over the years.
Because every website project is different, pricing isn’t one-size-fits-all. A simple 2-page site for a sole proprietor is a very different scope than a 10-page site with booking functionality and a photo gallery. Listing a single price would either overcharge one client or undercharge another.
That’s why we start with a free consultation—so we can understand your specific needs and goals, then provide a quote that’s customized and fair for your business.
The project scope will be different for each project, but generally speaking, once I receive everything I need from you the process can take as little as 2 weeks.
We want you 110% happy with your website so we will make as many revisions as it takes...within reason of course. LOL! Most clients go thru about 2-3 rounds of revisions prior to launch.
One of the many reasons we use WordPress is because it is a user-friendly Content Management System or CMS. 85% of our clients don't want to touch their site and email us their updates when needed. There are a few that like to go in and change things on their own and we happily provide you with what you need to do so.
Your website updates are very important. Most basic (content and image changes, etc.) updates are done within 3 business days!
We have been offering digital marketing, including web design, graphic design, digital advertising, social media and more, to small businesses and big corporations for more than 20 years.
