Elegant and functional
Raven’s Eye Design offers a full range of web design, development, maintenance and hosting services.
If you don’t have a website and are considering getting one, we’ll be happy to consult with you to help determine what type of site would best suit your needs. If you have a website that you’d like to improve, we excel at revamping websites to make them more beautiful, informative and functional.
Every design custom made
Each website we design is from scratch — a custom-made, elegant creation, never from a template. We can create anything from a simple, inexpensive brochure-style site to a complex, dynamic, interactive site with an image gallery, blog, forum, shopping cart, mailing list, animation and more.
Raven’s Eye Design combines a balance between immense creativity and meticulous code development and deployment, so with us you’ll get a great-looking site that works perfectly.
We’re always on top of the latest tricks and techniques, and we always write elegant HTML, CSS, Javascript and PHP code using current industry best practices and open web standards. We take care to produce clean, fast-loading code and images, optimized for speed and efficiency across all the major web browsers and platforms.
Freedom to manage your own content
We specialize in building websites that you can manage yourself if you want to. Our websites include an administrative control panel that allows you to log in and update all the content of your website: text, images, videos and audio.
We also have written a fully illustrated, custom User Guide for our clients, which includes easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions on how to manage the content of your website. Feel free to download the current version of our User Guide here (2.4 MB).
Currently, our favorite software to build websites with is WordPress, the most popular open source content management system on the planet, and we’re highly trained experts at customizing it exactly to your needs.
We also can use Drupal, Joomla, Expression Engine, or any other content management system or hosted web service that you like. Or, if its suits your needs best, we can develop a website using simple, hand-coded HTML with CSS.
Of course, if you don’t want to manage your website content, Raven’s Eye Design can do it for you.
Built to web standards
We also design all our sites using the principles of the open web, or standards-based design. In plain English, this means we create code and images that are sure to save you money, time and trouble in the present and to keep your pages functioning properly well into the future.
Websites designed by Raven’s Eye Design are built to look great on all popular browsers, and to be accessible to people with special needs or who use mobile devices to access the web.
Top quality, great price
Our small business size keeps our overhead low and enables us to offer amazingly competitive prices. Advertising agencies sometimes contract with us, mark up our prices, and resell our work to their clients. Work directly with Raven’s Eye Design and save money!
Because we do custom work, flat rates don’t best serve us or our clients. We charge $65 an hour for all services, and each job is priced differently based on how much time we spend completing the work. However, just to give you a rough idea: a basic dynamic website with content management generally starts at around $2,500.
Get your site online
To complement our awesome web design and development services, Raven’s Eye Design offers rock-solid, feature-laden website hosting and administration.
With our hosting service, your site will be online with a light-speed connection directly to the backbone of the internet. This means that as your business or organization expands and grows, and more people visit your site, the accessibility of your site will remain strong and fast.

We also offer an amazing assortment of optional features with our hosting services, such as ftp access, unlimited email accounts, subdomain names, and more. Just ask; if there’s something special you want to do with your website, we can manage it.
