Who I Work With

Not just trades. Not just small business.

I design websites for all kinds of people and companies — from solo creators and local shops to growing startups and product brands.

  • Startups & SaaS

    Landing pages, product sites, and MVP experiences that explain the value fast and convert early users.

  • Creators & Personal Brands

    Portfolio sites, coaching pages, and creator hubs that turn attention into bookings and sales.

  • E-commerce & Product Brands

    Storefronts and product-focused sites built to showcase offers and make buying feel easy.

  • Professionals & Local Services

    Contractors, trades, agencies, salons, restaurants, and anyone who needs the phone to ring.

Selected Work

Concepts built like real client projects

Each of these is an independent concept — designed end to end, from messaging and layout to the mobile experience, for the kinds of businesses I work with.

What I build for growing brands

Everything needed to take a business from no website — or a bad one — to a site that presents it properly and brings in work.

  • 01

    Website Design

    Modern custom websites designed around the business and its customers — not a template everyone else is using.

  • 02

    Website Redesign

    Transform outdated or ineffective websites into modern experiences that hold attention and build trust.

  • 03

    Landing Pages

    Focused pages designed around a specific offer, service, or campaign with one clear next step.

  • 04

    Lead Generation Websites

    Websites structured to encourage visitors to call, message, or request a quote without hunting for it.

  • 05

    Mobile Optimization

    Responsive experiences that work properly across phones, tablets, and desktops — designed mobile-first.

  • 06

    Website Content

    Clear, persuasive website copy that explains services in plain language and encourages action.

Why Work With Me

A designer who thinks about your customers first

A website only matters if it does something for the business. That's the standard I design to.

  • Modern design, not dated templates

    Layouts, type and spacing that make a brand look established and credible the moment the page loads.

  • Fast, focused development

    Tight scope and quick turnaround. You get a working site instead of a project that drags on for months.

  • Clear communication

    Plain language, direct answers, and updates you don't have to chase. No jargon, no vague timelines.

  • Business-focused thinking

    Every page starts with the question: what does this business need a visitor to do next?

  • Mobile-first by default

    Most local customers arrive on a phone, so the phone layout gets designed first — not squeezed in last.

  • Conversion-focused layouts

    Calls, quote requests and messages are placed where people actually look, then made obvious.

Modern tooling

AI-assisted, design-led

I use modern AI and no-code tools the same way a carpenter uses a better saw: to move faster, test more ideas, and spend the saved time on the parts that actually matter — layout, messaging, and the details that make a site feel expensive.

The design decisions are still mine, and they're made around your business.

About

Website designer, based in Alabama

I'm Braxton Richey, a freelance website designer focused on helping businesses and creators improve how they show up online. I work with all kinds of clients — local service businesses, startups, e-commerce brands, coaches, creators, and trades — but the goal is always the same: a website that gets people to take action.

I enjoy the mix of technology, design, research, and creative problem-solving that goes into turning an idea into a working website. I use modern tools, including AI-assisted and no-code development, to build quickly without giving up control over how the design looks and works.

If you're starting from nothing or replacing something that isn't working, I'd like to hear about it.
