About
I build websites for individuals and small businesses with an emphasis on simple, functional, user friendly and responsive.
If you:
are looking for an upgrade beyond the do-it-yourself type sites --
don't want to expend time creating or modifying a website while managing your business --
don't want to pay high end web developer prices --
I have more tools at my disposal than you'll find at Wix, thus more options for customizing and personalizing a web identity and user experience for you and your clients.

Rich does a great job with all aspects of my web site development and maintenance. The initial design was top notch, and he is always super responsive with any updates I have. I've got no time or interest in the technical aspects of implementing or keeping up with the web site hosting or technology and I'm really glad that he is available to take care of it. I highly recommend him for website work.”

Our condominium association was interested in building a new website that would be not only informative but user friendly for our owners as well as individuals from the general public seeking information about our community. In light of this, we retained web designer Rich Hudson who came highly recommended. With Rich's help, we were able to achieve our goal. Building a website can be quite a process. Rich did a great job of guiding us through each step of setting up the different areas on the site by giving us ideas, direction, and great graphic work. I found him to be an excellent teacher, easy to work with, and that he responds quickly when we need to add or update new content or encounter technical issues. I am pleased with the work he has done for our association and would recommend him to others for website and/or graphic work.

My thoughts: 1. Brevity - Designs a website that gets the point across immediately. Your customer can scan your site with ease. No foolish insolent talk. 2. Cost is very affordable - The results are “In Hand Value”. Anyone who is starting a new business needs a site. You get a first class site that you can be proud of and afford. 3. Creative - Listens to your thoughts and provides great ideas upon which to build your site. Does excellent work in Logo design. 4. Communications - Between you and Rich are immediate. 5. Legality - Always follows the rules as to what you can or cannot use in your site.

Rich revamped the website for The Kingswood Press two years ago and he did a fantastic job, making it more concise and much easier to navigate, all at a very reasonable and affordable price. Since then we have had more “hits” which has led to more business and some new accounts. Rich's response time to technical questions is immediate, thorough and easy to understand. His website knowledge and design capabilities are excellent, he is easy to work with, and I would recommend him to others who are in need of website design or graphic design.

Summary
Rich Hudson
Web Development & Graphic Design is fundamental for modern businesses. So much commerce and information these days is found online. Having grown up in the last century, I have, like some of you, many points of comparison for life before the web and life since. This line of work matches my talents, abilities and interests. Most of my clients over the past four years have been small business owners with limited time to keep up with a website. Several tried do-it-yourself websites that fell behind modern web practices and grew outdated. If you're ready to go with your content (your business's words and images), then I'm ready to begin working for you to improve your web presence.
