Neutral Ocean Design creates and manages websites for local, small businesses of the Hampton Roads area.
I currently use WordPress as a publishing platform and high quality templates as a base for each site. I then fully customize the appearance and functionality for your unique company. Using templates enables me to quickly produce a quality website for your company at an affordable cost. While other local businesses are charging $1000+ for custom-built sites, I can offer you a professional website for less than half of that price. Your company’s website will be up and running in less than four weeks.
For your hosting and domain name I highly recommend FatCow.com, an EPA Green Power Partner. I have hosted with them for over four years and always recommend them to my clients. They are very affordable and offer great hosting and customer service.
My Process
- Upon reception of signed and completed Web Worksheet and Contract (and hosting fee deposit if needed), domain name and hosting will be purchased for your website (if need be).
- I will send you a Website Content questionnaire for you to fill out to provide me with information for your website.
- Development of website will begin when both Web Worksheet and Website Content documents are completed and returned to me.
- The site is completed, uploaded and checked for any errors.
- Website is reviewed by client and revisions are made.
- Finalization of website and reception of payment.

What You Need to Know About SEO
SEO is short for “search engine optimization”. Your website needs to be optimized so that your clients can find your business when they type in certain “key words” into a search engine. If you’re wondering what a search engine is, then I’m sure you recognize these names: Google, Yahoo!, Bing, etc. Those are all search engines. Now, I do not specialize in search engine optimization. If you are interested in a local SEO company just let me know, and I will be happy to refer one to you. Unfortunately, I will admit that SEO may seem pricey, but the investment is worth it for the exposure your company website will receive. The good news is that if you host with FatCow they offer a basic search engine optimization package for around $10/month (this is compared to around $300/month an SEO Company will charge).
