Philosophy

I’ve been applying the “teach a man to fish” philosophy to websites since the early 2000’s. From building a proprietary publishing system to utilizing WordPress, I empower my clients to take control of their websites.

Methodology

Leveraging platforms (WordPress, Squarespace), off the shelf components (themes, plugins), and cloud services (CRM) creates cost and time efficiencies while delivering a high degree of functionality.

Do-It-Yourself

Sometimes that point and click solution that you see on tv isn’t as easy as it looks. I can help get you started and provide as much assistance as you need or can afford.

SEO

If you just need a website to point clients to, then bravo. Business must be good. If you want to improve your search results and generate more traffic to your website, I can collaborate with Search Engine Optimization specialists to develop a program to get you results.

Social Media

Love it or hate it, social media should be considered part of your online eco-system. Whether you want to go deep, or just need a nudge in the right direction, I work with social media partners who keep your brand front and center.

HTML E-Mail

Coding HTML e-mails can be a minefield. Different platforms, devices and mail clients all become factors in the final result. I’ve worked with major corporations to make sure that their e‑mails display the way that they were intended.

  • Having a new website has been on my to-do list for years and I dreaded the process. Paul encouraged, prodded and directed me throughout the entire process. He is incredibly creative, a forward thinker and full of new ideas. I'm forever thankful to him. I continually get compliments on what a great new website we have.

  • Paul has always been able to capture our architectural design sensibility and translate it into a web presence that expresses us perfectly and is easy for us to manage. Our website attracts exactly the kind of clients we are hoping to work with.

  • Paul helped me through a "cloud-based crisis", and since has continually improved my site and web-based presence. This is key to my world-wide service business to the pharmaceutical and medical device community.

  • Finally a very competent programmer who completely understands design!!! He is not only a design-minded programmer, he is very cost-effective and deadline conscientious. I definitely consider him a partner throughout the process of developing a website from beginning to end. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to enhance their website, create one, or even as a very knowledgeable website consultant!!!

  • Paul Matsuda is always on top of the latest online technologies, tools, and trends...does superior work with precision and rapidity...delivers exceptional quality at a reasonable cost...and, to top it off, he's a pleasure to work with. I recommend him highly!

    Bruce Harris - Words 5

  • HIRE PAUL! If you want expert help guiding you through building or even re‑building your website. His knowledge of the backend and functionality compliment his creative vision. What truly impressed me was that he regularly made creative suggestions, but never demands. It's great to have a vendor that is more concerned about delivering what YOU want than satisfying his own ego. If your goal is to get visitors to say "great website!", I repeat...HIRE PAUL!

    Fred Greene - Greene Creative

  • Paul is an incredible partner to work with. Not only are his deliverables always on-time and on-budget, but he’s always thinking through projects and making recommendations that improve our core business objectives of the assignment. He’s a valuable resource to have, and his work has had a tremendous impact on our business.
