Q: We're without a clear vision for our new website — Will you help us figure it out?
A: Yes. I'll listen to your goals and help identify the best approach for architecture, design, tech specs, and content strategy. I'm experienced in guiding clients through the web design journey from start to finish.
Q: Have you ever worked with a client in our industry before?
A: Probably. During my 17+ years of designing new websites and building Google Ads™ campaigns, I've worked with a diverse range of clients; from small businesses to enterprise firms, across various industries in many countries. My wide ranging experience means that I can deliver a high-quality product to meet your unique needs. And if for any reason it seems like I wouldn't be a good fit for your project, I'm happy to say that upfront.
Q: Do you have availability for a new client?
A: Maybe. My schedule varies so it's best to inquire early. Availability is limited, but most new work starts within a few weeks.
Q: How long have you been building websites?
A: About 25 years; began coding in middle school.
Q: How long have you been a SEO Expert?
A: Professionally for 17 years. It's ever changing and I enjoy keeping up with the latest, best practices in the SEO world.
Q: What are your pricing models?
A: It all depends on the goals of the project. I price projects based on the scope of work needed to meet your goals — this way you'll never have to pay for work you don't need, making it the most affordable approach. Please Request a Quote to learn more.
Q: What is 'Responsive Web Design'?
A: Responsive web design is a type of web development that allows the website to change (respond) to the screen size of the device the user is using. It eliminates the need to "pinch & zoom" and provides a better UX. It is sometimes referred to as "fluid design" or "mobile-friendly."
Q: We have our own in-house coding team — can you help consult on the design only?
A: Yes. I'm adaptable and can certainly help consult on design and UI / UX aspects of your website. It's fun to work with larger teams.
Q: Can you maintain our website?
A: Sure. Websites that I build are made so the client can handle content updates. But when you're busy running your business, I can certainly help implement updates as needed. This work is billed ad hoc — no need for a retainer or monthly fee.
Q: Where do you work?
A: I'm based in Boston — and have great clients across the United States, Canada, and Europe.
Q: Who is chris muzilla?
A: An imaginary character from the mind of Mike Patton? Or, if you prefer a more realistic answer, a Boston-based web dev who enjoys playing music (guitar, piano, cello) and seeing lots of live comedy.
Q: Who are your heroes?
A: Ralph Steadman. Kelly Johnson. Mike Monteiro. Doctor Thaddeus Ozone (aka Kevin Thomas Doyle). Peter W. Merlin. Scott Galloway. Kara Swisher.
