CHACO WEBWORKS
Web design for solopreneurs and small businesses.
Building websites you can work on!
I build websites for individuals and small businesses. I also teach them how to manage and maintain these sites so they have the confidence and skills to do so.
Are you a small business owner who wants or needs a website, and perhaps more importantly, you would like to handle your own online marketing, sales, and promotions?
Does having some help to get started, but then gaining the skills and confidence to operate your website independently, sound good to you?
If so, let’s connect to discuss your dreams, goals, and project.
MY STORY:
I purchased my first domain in 2006 and hired a design firm to help me create a simple website. It was exciting to have a site that was mine—it was tangible, and I was so proud. However, I lacked the confidence and ability to make any edits or changes to the site myself, and I pretty quickly realized that this was a problem. After a few paid, hourly appointments with my web designer to make some small changes, I decided it was time for me to learn how to edit my website!
Learning to work on my website and subsequently building sites for others started a creative process that still brings me joy. It’s an artistic experience, akin to sewing a beautiful quilt, creating a painting, or writing a story. When the process is complete, the object comes to life with a unique energy and shares a message that reflects the person behind the idea, their values, and their passions. It’s a beautiful process!
Because I’ve also experienced allowing someone else to work on a project close to my own heart, I understand how vulnerable and uncertain this can feel. I take the responsibility and privilege of helping you build and also learn how to maintain your website seriously.
I’m excited to see what we can do together~

Getting Started!
#1. Enjoy my free Getting Started Guide
If creating a website is intimidating or you need some ideas about how to start, my free guide will help. It includes a series of short videos that explore topics, offer tips, and suggest things to consider as you begin to plan your website.
I’m excited to see what we can do together!
#2. Build your website
Three design/build tiers are available, depending on the features you want on your website. All options include 1-on-1 sessions as we get started to discuss your website's appearance, how you want it to perform, and the content you wish to include.
I’m also happy to discuss changes or refreshing your existing website.
#3. Support from Video tutorials
As a client, you can access our library of “how-to” videos to work independently on your website. My goal is to help you achieve autonomy and confidence in maintaining your site, so you won’t need to check in with me (or anyone else) for managing the basic details.
This video library sets us apart and is a key component of what we offer.
(You will be able to access these videos inside your Chaco Webworks client account.)
► The video tutorials you will have access to are a feature that sets us apart from other design firms!
► A library of essential ‘how-to’ videos is included in your website's ‘Build’ package.
► These videos will provide support for you as you add content, keep your site up to date, looking great, and effectively market to reach your audience.
► Become confident in promoting and sharing your business and dream.
