I build websites.

Pure coded in Next.js. Built mobile first and made to look good on desktop. No website builders, so no monthly hosting fees.

How I build them

Pure coded. No website builders.

01

Pure coded in Next.js

Every website is pure coded in Next.js. Built mobile first, and made to look good on desktop.

02

Premium, no cut corners

I take care with every site to make it premium. I don't cut corners.

03

No monthly fees

I don't use website builders like WordPress or Wix, so there are no monthly fees for hosting. The only thing you keep paying for is the domain, usually around $11.25 a year.

As long as the site isn't huge or storing something like 10 GB of files.

How this site works

This site is built the same way.

Pure coded in Next.js, mobile first, no website builder. Here's what it does.

  • Organized by topic

    Everything lives in one of six categories. One piece, one category. You browse by topic, not by date.

  • Pieces link to each other

    Related pieces link together, and every piece shows what links to it.

  • Searchable

    The full list is in one place, and you can search all of it.

  • Published and updated dates

    I update pieces instead of replacing them, so you see the day it went up and the day it last changed.

  • Prints clean

    Any piece can be printed or saved as a PDF. That's mostly there for the Bible studies.

  • No ads

    No ads or affiliate links. Not now, not ever.
