Frequently Asked Questions
Services
Yes, I am a Front-End Web Developer and Designer. So I write in primarily in HTML & CSS, with some JavaScript/JQuery thrown in. I have fun coding and love to incorporate those skills into every web project I do! But I found that most small businesses, solopreneurs, artists, and organizations are best served by a website they can update themselves, without adding an in-house or contract web manager. I'd be happy to chat about your project and to assess which path would be best for you, or point you to a back-end or full stack developer who can bring your vision to life!
Good Foundations Studio builds on Squarespace, Webflow, and Shopify.
While most of our clients use Squarespace or Webflow, occasionally we'll work with a client for whom a different platform makes more sense. We work with Shopify, Cargo, Readymag, & Format. If you're on Wordpress, we can suggest some fantastic designers who can help you!
Good Foundations Studio is a web studio, first and foremost. That means we build new and redesign existing websites.
While I have experience with digital marketing, specifically in the arts, there are freelancers and agencies who are more knowledgable and, crucially, more passionate about social and digital marketing than I am! (Short answer: no.)
