Hello, my name is Lance Wig. I construct web sites. Central 183 is my company. I know you probably have less than 2 minutes to decide if I can help you. That’s why I’m going to be very quick and clear about what I can offer.

My biggest philosophy is to keep things simple and easy. A great deal of my competition believes that sites need to be flashy and obnoxious to bring in customers. I feel that creating a useful, simple and pleasant site is the key to more customers.

I’m strong in these programming languages:

• HTML
• CSS
• Javascript
• PHP
• Flash

I’m  working on listing my specific sills over in my resume section of the site.

I know a couple ways to make your site fully dynamic. I often work with content management systems and frameworks such as:

• Wordpress
• Joomla
• Drupal
• cakePHP

My experience in the print industry has helped me develop a good eye to make your site unique, consistent and admirable.

I don’t skimp on inefficient code either. I will work to get your site loading fast, usable and within web standards such as the “W3C validation”

I spent the years 2000 to 2002 working at a national magazine and the past 6 years freelancing my work. The majority of my work has been with MGM Communications in Asheville. I’ve also worked with other firms and individuals from Arizona to Asheville. My portfolio is a bit old at the moment. I will be adding more sites soon. I have worked with these kinds of companies

• Adult retirement communities
• Luxury living communities
• Single product point of sale sites
• An event staffing agency
• A furniture store
• A musician
• A conex box company

Let me be clear. I work with both individuals and other web development firms. No job is too small. I can also maintain your current site.

I charge $50 per hour for my work. Is that set in stone? Probably not. I am often open to working for a project fee if good guidelines are set. I’ve done simple styled CMS sites for as little as $500. Most other firms are going to be charging you anywhere from $75 to $125 and up per hour.  I am cheaper because I work out of my home. I have very little overhead.

The process is much like other web design/development firms.

1. I’ll  meet with you by phone or email.
2. I’ll do a follow up meeting in person.
3. We will outline what your needs are.
4. An estimate and contract is created and sent out.
5. If you are happy with my estimate, you’ll give me a deposit of 1/2 to get started.
6. Most projects go through a stage where the client can see 2 to 3 variations and make comments.
7. At the halfway point, the final design is fairly finalized and 1/4 more of the total cost is due.
8. A final working site will be shown to you on a private development server.
9. Upon approval, the last 1/4 of total cost is due before the site goes live.
