WordPress Website Design


Smart, Custom Web Design in Hartford, CT
At Crowd Surf Media, I specialize in custom WordPress websites that are designed to grow with your business. If you’re a small business owner, creative, or entrepreneur looking for CT web design that actually gets results, you’re in the right place. Based in Hartford, I work with local brands across Connecticut to create websites that look amazing and work hard behind the scenes.
Forget the boring templates and cookie-cutter layouts. I build every site with intention, strategy, and your goals in mind. Whether you’re launching your first site or replacing something outdated, I’ve got the tools and experience to make it happen.
Why WordPress?
WordPress is powerful, flexible, and easy to manage. It’s the most popular website platform in the world for a reason. I build on WordPress because it gives you full control over your content and keeps things simple on the backend.
You’ll be able to log in, update text, swap out photos, add blog posts, or even manage products—all without touching code. And if you want me to handle updates for you, we offer affordable monthly maintenance plans.
What’s Included
When you choose Crowd Surf Media for your CT web design project, here’s what you get:
Custom Design
I start from scratch and design a site that fits your brand—not someone else’s. Every layout, color, font, and feature is tailored to your business.
Mobile-Friendly Layouts
More than half of your visitors are on mobile. I make sure your website looks sharp and works perfectly on phones, tablets, and desktops.
SEO-Optimized
My sites are built with clean code, fast load speeds, and smart structure so search engines can find you. Want to rank on Google? I set the foundation for strong SEO from day one.
Easy Editing
You get a drag-and-drop builder that makes updates simple. No need to hire a developer for every little change.
Speed & Security
I optimize every image, script, and layout for fast loading. Because slow sites lose visitors—and money.
Launch Support & Training
I guide you through managing your site and offer ongoing support if needed.
Our Web Design Process

Discover
I kick things off with a casual conversation to learn about your business, who you're trying to reach, and what success looks like for you. I’ll talk about your style, your competitors, and any specific features you’re looking for. This is where I gather the ideas and inspiration that will guide the entire project. Don’t worry if you don’t have all the answers—I’ll help you figure out what matters most.

Plan
Based on what I learned, I’ll start designing the structure and style of your site. This includes layout mockups, homepage concepts, and key page designs. You’ll get to review the designs, ask questions, and request changes. I collaborate closely with you to make sure everything feels right before we touch a line of code. Our goal is to capture your brand in a clean, modern layout that works across all screen sizes.

Design & Build
Once the design is approved, I turn it into a fully functional WordPress site. I set up pages, load content, install plugins, and make everything run smoothly behind the scenes. Then I test the site on multiple browsers, devices, and screen sizes to make sure it looks great and works perfectly for everyone who visits. From load speed to responsive behavior, I double-check all the details.

Launch & PARTY
When everything’s ready, we launch your new site and make it live on your domain. But we don’t just hand it off and disappear—we walk you through the dashboard, show you how to update your content, and give you a quick training session so you’re confident managing your site. Need extra help? We offer monthly support plans, so you’re never on your own.

Why Crowd Surf Media?
I’m local, responsive, and easy to talk to. No tech jargon or slow replies—just a real person helping you build a better online presence.
Most of our clients stick with me for the long haul because I focus on results, not just good looks. I’m proud to be part of Connecticut’s small business scene and love helping my neighbors grow online.
