Tailored to your exact workflowWhat I Build
Websites are only useful when they support what the business is actually trying to accomplish.
Custom Websites
Designed around your business instead of forcing your business into a generic template.
Every company has distinct operations, audiences, and customer questions. I build custom, responsive websites from the ground up that reflect your actual brand, convey trustworthiness, and load fast on every device.
- Custom business websites
- Focused campaign landing pages
- Multi-page informational architectures
- Responsive development across all screen sizes
- Technical SEO foundations & schema markup
- Privacy-first analytics & conversion tracking
- Core Web Vitals & page speed optimization
Website Redesigns
Modernize an outdated website while protecting the parts that already work.
A redesign shouldn't destroy established SEO rankings or confuse long-standing customers. I carefully audit your existing traffic, restructure clumsy navigation, modernize the visual language, and bring mobile usability up to modern standards.
- Comprehensive visual & typographic redesign
- Mobile UX and touch interaction improvements
- Navigation restructuring & information hierarchy
- Safe content & asset migration
- WCAG accessibility remediation
- Page speed & performance upgrades
Business Systems & Integrations
Connect your website to the systems that help run the business.
This is where Christianson Web Studio stands apart from typical web designers. Your website shouldn't just be an isolated digital brochure—it can automate intake, route leads directly to your inbox or CRM, sync live inventory, accept deposits, and eliminate repetitive manual data entry.
- Appointment booking & calendar synchronization
- Live inventory & catalog database feeds
- Stripe payment workflows & deposit processing
- Multi-step lead capture & qualification forms
- Automated email confirmations & CRM dispatch
- Custom internal admin tools & dashboards
- REST & GraphQL third-party API integrations
- PostgreSQL / Supabase database architecture
- Business automation & webhook pipelines
- AI-assisted workflows & vision classification tools
Ongoing Support
Websites should continue improving after launch.
Websites are living systems. When you launch with Christianson Web Studio, you aren't handed off to a call center or abandoned with confusing code. You have direct access to the developer who built the site for updates, maintenance, and growth.
- Regular software dependency updates
- Proactive security & uptime monitoring
- Timely content & pricing adjustments
- Iterative feature additions & enhancements
- Direct technical support from Aaron Christianson
- Continuous performance & search visibility audits
A straightforward process.
No bloated committees or endless presentation decks. Here is how I plan, design, and deploy your project.
Understand
I start by understanding the business, the problem, and what the website actually needs to accomplish before writing a line of code.
Design
Structure, user flow, content, visual direction, and functionality are defined before unnecessary complexity is added.
Build
The website and supporting systems are developed, connected, tested, and refined using modern production standards.
Launch
The project is prepared for production, tested across devices, verified for SEO and accessibility, and deployed to global edge infrastructure.
Improve
The site can continue evolving as your business changes, backed by direct ongoing maintenance and feature development.
Built directly. Not passed through an agency.
Christianson Web Studio is an independent web development studio operated by Aaron Christianson in Massachusetts.
Projects are handled directly from initial discovery and planning through interface design, technical architecture, and production deployment.
How I Take a Product to Launch
DIRECT EXECUTION1. Define the real problem
Map what the business actually needs before writing code—cutting clutter and planning how leads, bookings, or orders should flow.
2. Direct the build & UX
Guide structure, copy, and usability hands-on—using modern frameworks and AI tooling as leverage while catching rough edges directly.
3. Wire the real plumbing
Connect databases, APIs, Stripe payments, spam-checked forms, and clean version control so the site works as an operational system.
4. Test, protect & deploy
Verify builds across screens, put clear scope boundaries in place, configure DNS/SSL, and ship cleanly to production.

Straight answers before we start.
Practical details on ownership, existing website migrations, timelines, and working directly together.
How long does a typical project take?
Timelines are quoted per scope and organized around clear milestones before work begins. You get a realistic schedule up front based on what actually needs to be built rather than arbitrary week promises.
Do I own my website, domain, and code when it's done?
Yes. Upon final payment, you hold full ownership of your custom client-specific site deliverables with zero platform lock-in. Your domain name and third-party service accounts stay registered in your name.
Can you replace an existing WordPress, Wix, or Squarespace site?
Yes. I audit your existing pages and search presence first, map proper redirects so established links don't break, and rebuild on fast, modern code tailored around how your business operates.
What do you need from me to get started?
Send a short overview of your business, what the website needs to accomplish, and any existing site or examples you like. I respond within 1 business day to clarify scope and next steps.
What happens after the website launches?
Paid production launches include a 30-day post-launch defect verification window so any issues against the agreed scope are resolved cleanly. After that, you can manage updates on your own or keep me on for ongoing maintenance and new features.
Have something that needs to be built?
Tell me what you’re trying to accomplish. I’ll reply within 1 business day with whether I can build it and how we should scope it.
