Let’s create a website that’s built for your success.

Small Business Website Design

Small business websites are often crafted for service-based industries like plumbing, electrical work, HVAC, accounting, construction, education, and more. These websites can feature essential tools such as contact forms, appointment scheduling, mailing list subscriptions, and event calendars. They integrate seamlessly with popular CRM systems like HubSpot and Zoho, providing a streamlined experience for customer management and communication.

E-commerce Website Design

Our e-commerce website design is tailored for businesses selling products online or offering subscription services. We provide comprehensive packages that cover every step—from design development to launch training—ensuring you’re fully equipped to run your online store.

Non-Profit Website Design

Our “Cause and Affect Program” was developed to give 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations an affordable path to a high-performing website that amplifies their mission. Through this program, BPetersonDesign covers 50% of the development costs on all our website packages, making it easier for nonprofits to access top-quality web design.

With the “Cause and Affect Program,” we’re able to give back meaningfully, using our expertise to help nonprofits make a difference.

Before and After PageSpeed performance

Load time matters

Our Hosting Ensures Quick Loading Websites

First impressions are critical, and your website has just milliseconds to make an impact. With slower sites averaging 10.3 seconds to load on desktop and up to 27.3 seconds on mobile, users may form their opinion—and decide to leave—long before the page fully loads. At BPetersonDesign, we focus on speed and performance in every stage of development to keep Carefree businesses competitive in an online world where every moment counts.

Website speed also directly affects SEO rankings, as search engines like Google prioritize sites that load quickly. Here’s how slow speeds can affect your SEO:

  • Core Web Vitals: These metrics—covering load speed, interactivity, and visual stability—are vital for rankings. Pages with lower scores on Core Web Vitals often rank lower because Google emphasizes user-friendly experiences.
  • Bounce Rate: Slow-loading sites lead to higher bounce rates, which signals to search engines that users aren’t finding what they need, potentially dropping your site in rankings.
  • Mobile-First Indexing: Google indexes and ranks the mobile version of your website, and since mobile can load more slowly, a lagging mobile site can negatively impact overall rankings.
  • User Engagement: Fast websites encourage visitors to stay longer, engage more, and explore multiple pages. This increased interaction boosts SEO by showing search engines that users find value in your content.
  • Competitive Advantage: In saturated markets, even a slight improvement in load time can make the difference in search rankings, helping your business get noticed.

By prioritizing speed, BPetersonDesign helps you not only improve user experience but also strengthen your SEO, setting you up for lasting online success.

What Does a Google-Approved Website Look Like?

  • Responsive Web Design: Your website will look great and function smoothly on all devices, ensuring accessibility for all users.

  • Passing Google PageSpeed Score: All our websites are optimized for fast load times, meeting Google’s PageSpeed requirements for a better user experience.

  • Verified and Secure (SSL Certificate): Every site we build is SSL-encrypted, keeping your site secure and establishing trust with users.

  • High-Quality Content: We create valuable content that directly addresses user needs, positioning your site as the solution people are searching for.

  • Search Engine Optimization (SEO): Built with SEO best practices, our websites rank well on search engines, increasing your visibility.

  • Clear Call-to-Actions: Strong, strategic CTAs guide users toward desired actions, making engagement seamless.

  • Intuitive User Flow: We design sites with a logical structure, ensuring users can easily navigate and find what they need without frustration.

  • Positive User Experience: Our designs prioritize user satisfaction, creating an enjoyable and engaging experience that encourages repeat visits.
