Serving Small Businesses
We design small business websites

You've got a gem of a small business that needs to gain the kind of visibility only the Internet can provide. Maybe we're talking about your family restaurant, your boutique inn, your local optometry office, your auto repair shop or your new solar installation company. Your days are filled with the many tasks of running your great small business, but somewhere in your mind, you know you've got to take your company online to be doing business in an effective, modern way.

Chances are, you've got little time to study quality website design, search engine optimization, web copywriting or local search marketing. Your business needs these things, for sure, but how are you going to get them? That's where we come in.

Solas Web Design is owned and operated by husband-and-wife partnership Liam and Miriam Ellis. What we are offering you is an utterly professional understanding of the web coupled with earthy, friendly personal service. When you phone or email us, you will be speaking to us directly - not being routed through an employee. Let less fortunate small business owners deal with the headaches of putting their success in the hands of giant web development companies that won't ever even know them by name. When you come to us, our eager eyes and ears hone in on your story and the next few weeks, months or years of our lives are spent thinking about you and your business and how you can succeed on the web. Make us a part of your integral business plan and you'll soon wonder how you ever could have gotten along without us.

We are here to design you an incredible search-engine-friendly, human-friendly website, redesign your existent website, write exceptional copy for you or consult with you about your local search marketing opportunities. We have been assisting small business owners since 2003 and think it's an honor to be working at ground level with the businesses we consider to be the backbone of North America. We are extremely active within the design and SEO industry and offer you the following references and credentials:

Websites with soul

Our Work Philosophy Has Soul

We want to work with businesses that have a heart and soul. In our experience, worthy small businesses like these begin with a dream of fulfilling a need with goods, skills or services. Our own professional aim is to put our special skills to use for other people, and to earn a living doing so. Over the years, our line of work has put us in contact with so many fine people who are striving to achieve this very same goal. Because of our experience of owning, running and promoting our own company, we can readily identify with you if you are traveling down the same challenging road, spurred on by the aspiration of achieving your unique dreams.

We understand that the e-commerce websites we build represent a client's partial or complete livelihood. We understand that a non-profit organization is about a group of dedicated individuals who willingly sacrifice personal time in order to deliver an important message to the public. We completely comprehend the need of local professional service providers to bring their good standings in their communities into bright visibility on the web - the new seat of their professional reputations. We recognize the hope which lies behind every worthy business and, because of this, we take care of our clients' needs with the respect and attention they so evidently merit.

We believe that it is our client-oriented mindset which is helping our web design firm to succeed. We truly value the working relationships we develop with our clients and feel honored that they are entrusting a part of their business or mission to us. In our personal lives, we know how much we prefer dealing one-on-one with real people, whether in stores, over the phone, or over the Internet. It appears to us that one of the drawbacks of today's astonishing technology is that it puts automated messages, responses and assistance between people, instead of letting folks talk to one another.

We actually want to talk to our clients. We know that this is the best way for us to get a true feel of what your company or group is all about, and that really helps us to focus on the work that needs to be done to assist you in your plans. It may be a little unusual for a technology company to have such a non-corporate attitude, but the happiness in our work comes from knowing we are helping real people with important needs. We want to hear about you and are committed to offering you fairly-priced, ethical and thoughtful services.

Solas Web Design is eager to share in your dreams and will work diligently for the gratification of seeing them come true.

» Reflections On An Unemployed Chinese Chef
A couple of weeks ago, I came across the YouTube page of a fellow named Kai.

There's money to be made somewhere in this, and reason to believe that Kai need not remain unemployed for long.Read More »
