A Columbus Website Designer You Can Actually Call
There’s a fundamental problem with how most web design agencies work: you fill out a form, get handed to a project manager, and the actual designer is someone you never meet. By week three, nobody can tell you why your homepage looks the way it does.
That’s not how I work. When you hire me as your Columbus web designer, you work with me from first call to launch day. I write the proposal, design the site, build it in WordPress, and hand it off to you fully trained on how to use it. There’s no team to brief, no handoffs, and no “let me check with the developer on that.”
This personal approach is why most of my clients come from referrals — and why 98% of them stay on a maintenance plan after launch. Read the full story behind Lindsey Web Solutions →
Who I Build Websites For in Columbus
I specialize in small businesses that need a professional web presence but don’t have an in-house tech team. My Columbus clients include:
- Restaurants and food businesses — from Short North cafés to Dublin family diners. Menus, reservation links, and local search visibility built in. (See how Columbus restaurants use their websites to drive bookings →)
- Law firms and dental offices — credibility-first designs with clear contact CTAs and trust signals that convert searchers into appointments. (See dental office website design in Columbus →)
- Contractors and home-service businesses — HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and landscaping companies that need to show up when Columbus homeowners search Google at 9pm on a Tuesday
- Retail shops, salons, and fitness studios — local brands competing with chains who need a site that earns the click over a big-box alternative
- Real estate agents and professional services — lead-generation machines built to capture Columbus buyers before they click the next result
If your business is in Columbus and your current website isn’t working — or you don’t have one yet — let’s talk about what the right site actually looks like for your situation. See the full range of services →
Columbus Client Work — What to Expect
Every project is custom — no $49 templates, no recycled layouts. Here’s the kind of work I do for Columbus businesses:
- Columbus HVAC contractor (Hilliard): Rebuilt a six-year-old site with neighborhood service pages for Hilliard, Dublin, and Westerville, a prominent quote-request form, and Google Business Profile integration. First call from a new Google search came in within 30 days of launch.
- Short North restaurant: Migrated from Wix to WordPress — mobile-first design, embedded menu, reservation integration, and local schema markup. The owner stopped paying for Yelp ads within 90 days of launch because Google was driving enough direct traffic.
- Dublin dental practice: Replaced a decade-old site that failed on mobile with a clean, trust-first design featuring patient FAQ, appointment booking, and before/after photo gallery. Inquiries through the contact form increased immediately after launch.
Flat-Rate Pricing — No Surprises
Every website I build has a fixed price agreed before any work begins. Here’s the baseline:
| Package | Best For | Starting Price |
|---|---|---|
| Starter Site | New businesses, 1–5 pages, contact form, local SEO | $2,500 |
| Business Pro | Service businesses, 6–10 pages, lead forms, full local SEO | $4,500 |
| E-Commerce | WooCommerce store, product catalog, checkout | From $6,500 |
| Redesign | Existing site refresh, migration, SEO cleanup | From $3,000 |

Yes — I’ve designed sites for restaurants, dental offices, HVAC contractors, law firms, salons, real estate agents, and retail shops across Columbus and suburbs like Dublin, Westerville, and Hilliard. See our restaurant website design Columbus and dental office website design Columbus pages for examples.
Why hire a local Columbus website designer instead of a national agency?
You work directly with the designer (not a rotating account team), get Columbus market knowledge built into your content, and have someone in your time zone when you need support. Local SEO also benefits from a team that understands Central Ohio neighborhoods and search behavior.
