Beyond Design:
The Tools That Keep Your Website Running Strong
HOSTING
We design visually compelling, easy-to-use websites that engage your audience and turn visitors into customers.
SECURITY
We create targeted pay-per-click campaigns that drive qualified traffic, maximize your ad spend, and turn clicks into customers.
Your Website Is Often the First Impression Customers Have of Your Business
Before someone calls, books, buys, or visits, they usually check your website. If it feels outdated, confusing, slow, or hard to use, potential customers may leave before ever reaching out.
A strong website builds confidence quickly. It shows who you are, what you offer, and why someone should choose you.
Better design creates better trust. Better trust creates better leads.
Designed With Strategy, Not Just Style
At Make Waves Design, every website starts with purpose. We focus on structure, messaging, user experience, mobile responsiveness, SEO foundations, and conversion strategy so your site does more than look polished—it supports your business goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
A website could be as little as $750, but because every website project is different, pricing isn’t one-size-fits-all. A simple 1-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 new website so we include reasonable revision rounds to make sure you’re confident and happy before launch. 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.
Great news! We don't disappear once your website is launched. We are here to take the next steps to make your website successful and take care of any changes you may need. Your website updates are very important. Most basic (content and image changes, etc.) updates are done within 3 business days!
Yes! We have 3 different search engine optimization (SEO) packages to fit your needs.
