Melissa Socha - Owner
and Senior Designer
I created my very first website for a company I started in 1997 the hard way - by trial and error. It was simple yet effective. The internet was still quite new back then and I found myself quickly fascinated with the design aspect. I found website design to be a creative outlet for myself but the technical aspect took a lot more effort as HTML and other languages began to evolve and expand. I was determined to learn as much as I could to improve my website and found myself giving my site a whole new makeover at least once a month as I learned to do more things. Needless to say my own web site has come a long way from the first one I designed back in 1997 and is now a successful online weight loss center with over 2500 members.
I began designing websites for other companies in 1998 and quickly found that website design was the field I wanted to pursue. My goal has always been first to please the client by creating websites that are unique, aesthetically pleasing and easy for the client's visitors to navigate.
Each site I design is a new learning experience not only by creating different designs but also in working with new people and the challenges that each new job brings. I work closely with each of my clients and give them options that will work specifically for their needs. It is very satisfying to help companies and individuals create a new avenue on the web so that their business can grow.
My interests also include website marketing. Being a website owner myself, it was important to learn how to market a site on the web so that my potential customers could find it. I have done extensive research on website marketing and search engine optimization. I design each of my client's websites with this in mind and also offer additional services and advise to help market their sites.
I am very fortunate to have a job that I love that allows me to use my creative skills as well as the technical skills I have learned throughout the last 9 years. I enjoy meeting new people and look forward to all the challenges that each new client brings.
