Let us help you design a professional website.

Website Design

A Better Home for Your Business Online

Your website should do much more than look attractive. It needs to explain what you do, establish credibility, answer your customers’ questions and encourage them to take the next step.

Makers Freelance creates professional, easy-to-navigate websites designed around your business and your clients. From site structure and written content to search optimization, analytics and launch, every element works together to create a website that can support your business for years to come.

Proven search engine optimization for search engines and AI.

SEO & AI Search Visibility

Be Found Where Clients Are Searching

Search has changed. Google remains enormously important, but potential clients are increasingly using AI platforms and conversational search to research businesses, compare services and decide who to contact.

We combine proven search engine optimization with strategies designed to help search engines and AI platforms better understand your business, expertise, services and location.

The goal isn't simply more website traffic. It's helping the right people find your business when they're looking for exactly what you provide.

Paid advertising puts you in front of your clients when they need you.

Digital Advertising

Reach Clients When They're Ready to Act

Paid advertising can put your business in front of potential clients much faster than organic search alone—but only when campaigns are carefully targeted and continually monitored.

Makers Freelance develops and manages digital advertising campaigns designed around your market, services and budget, from keyword and audience research to ad creation, landing pages, conversion tracking and ongoing optimization.

As new advertising opportunities emerge, Makers Freelance also helps clients evaluate which platforms are worth testing—and which aren't.

We create useful, search-friendly content including website copy, blogs, FAQs, landing pages and project descriptions.

Content Marketing

Give People a Reason to Find You

Good content helps potential clients understand your expertise long before they contact you.

Makers Freelance creates useful, search-friendly content including website copy, service pages, blogs, FAQs, landing pages, project descriptions and other resources that answer the questions your clients are already asking.

Content is written for people first, while providing the clarity and context that traditional search engines and emerging AI platforms need to understand your business.

Experience Matters. So Does Personal Attention.

When you choose someone to market your business, you’re trusting them with something you’ve worked hard to build. I understand that because I’ve built businesses too.

My career in marketing began with graphic design before I started and ran my own printing business, working directly with businesses on the materials they needed to promote themselves. As technology changed, so did my career. I moved from print into the emerging world of interactive marketing, founding an agency in Philadelphia that grew to become one of the area’s top-ranked interactive firms before being successfully sold.

That combination of design, print, technology and marketing has given me a perspective that’s difficult to acquire from any one discipline. I’ve watched marketing evolve from printed brochures and direct mail to websites, search engines, Google Ads, social media and, most recently, AI-driven search. And I’ve evolved right along with it.

Today, through Makers Freelance, I put that experience to work for small businesses that want effective marketing without the complexity or expense of a large agency. I provide website design, SEO and AI visibility, digital advertising and content marketing — with all the pieces working together as part of a coherent online presence.

Request a Consultation

Whether you need a new website, better visibility in search and AI, help with digital advertising, ongoing content — or you're simply not sure where to start — I’d love to hear about your business.

Tell me a little about what you do, what you’d like to accomplish and where you feel your current marketing could be working harder. I’ll personally review your inquiry and get back to you to discuss how Makers Freelance may be able to help.

No sales team. No pressure. Just a conversation about your business and what makes sense for you.

“Sue has been a great asset to our company. She has consistently exceeded expectations and made a significantly positive impact on our business. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an SEO specialist.”

— Desiree Kludy, Design Key Studio

“When I switched to Sue it was because my online presence was not showing as well as it once had. Sue jumped right in with great suggestions and changes to the website. Within a short time I was seeing results. She is so easy to work with, understands my interior design business as well as the technical side, and my business has increased considerably. What a pleasure it has been!”

— Kathy McGroarty, Decorating Den Interiors

“Working with Sue feels like having an experienced marketing professional as part of your own team. She takes the time to understand the business, explains things clearly, and is always looking for practical ways to improve our website and online visibility. I particularly value having one person who can look at the whole picture — from the website and content to SEO and advertising — and make sure everything is working together.”
