— How it works
Working with a Bellingham team
We start by looking at who your customers are and what you want them to do on the site, like send an inquiry or place an order. Then we send a written plan and a price.
Our full team designs and builds the site, and you keep one main contact.
— FAQ
Questions we get
Are you local to Bellingham?
Our main office is in Waverly, Iowa. We were based in Stanwood, down I-5, from 2017 to 2020, and part of our team still lives in that area.
We are a photographer. What should the site show first?
Your work. Matthew Land Studios opens with recent weddings by location, then the portfolio, reviews, and an inquiry form that asks for the date and venue.
Can you build an online store for a Bellingham shop?
Yes. We build stores with shipping, local pickup, and products your staff can manage.
Who keeps the site updated?
We can, on a monthly plan. Or we show you how to post new work and update pages yourself.
