Web Design & Hosting

Sites that load fast and convert.

Hand-coded HTML/CSS/JS or a content-managed platform — your call. AI-assisted where it speeds the build, never where it shapes the brand. Self-hosted on the same infrastructure we run ourselves, with an nginx reverse proxy, SSL, and uptime monitoring included. No page builders, no vendor lock-in.

Portfolio

Sites we've built and maintain.

Every site is designed from scratch for the client's brand and goals. No templates, no page builders, no WordPress bloat.

What's included

Design, hosting, and ongoing care — one monthly fee.

Custom design, no templates

Every site is designed from scratch. We don't use WordPress themes, Squarespace, or Wix. Clean HTML/CSS/JS — fast and maintainable.

Self-hosted infrastructure

Your site runs on nginx in a Docker container — on hardware we own and operate in Pierce & King County, with AWS as the warm failover region for traffic spikes and disaster recovery. No shared hosting, no mystery platform, no surprise bills.

SSL & security headers

Let's Encrypt certificate, auto-renewed. X-Frame-Options, CSP, HSTS, and all the headers that keep your site off vulnerability scanner reports.

AI chatbot integration

Our lead-gen AI chatbot — trained on your services and FAQs — embedded on your site. reCAPTCHA-gated, rate-limited, and routes to support@.

Uptime monitoring

24/7 HTTP probe via our Prometheus stack. You get an alert within 5 minutes of any outage. Public status page at status.rainier-it.com.

Content updates included

Monthly hosting includes up to 2 hours of content changes per month — update a price, add a photo, change an offer. Just email us.

Frequently asked

Common questions about web design & hosting.

Why we build the way we build, and what you actually get.

Why don't you build sites on WordPress, Wix, or Squarespace?

Because every one of those is a tax we don't want to pass on to you. WordPress's plugin ecosystem is the single biggest source of website breaches we triage for new clients. Squarespace and Wix lock you into their hosting, their pricing tiers, and their performance ceiling forever. We hand-code in HTML, CSS, and modern JavaScript — the site loads in under a second, has no plugins to compromise, no monthly platform fees, and the source code belongs to you. If you ever leave us, you can take the site to any host on earth.

Where are the sites hosted?

On our own infrastructure in Pierce County, fronted by Cloudflare for global edge caching and DDoS protection, with AWS as warm failover. nginx + Docker, Let's Encrypt SSL auto-renewed, full security headers (HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy), and uptime monitoring you can see on a public status page if you want one. The same setup we run for ourselves at rainier-it.com.

Can you redesign our existing site or do you only do new builds?

Both. A redesign is usually faster than a new build because we already have the content, the brand, and the working sitemap to start from. We rewrite the front-end in clean modern code, preserve URLs (with 301 redirects where structure changes), keep your SEO history intact, and migrate hosting to our infrastructure as a separate step so cutover is clean. Redesigns of a 5–10 page brochure site typically take 2–3 weeks.

How long does a build take and what does it cost?

A standard 5–10 page brochure site (homepage, services, about, contact, plus a couple of detail pages) takes about 2–3 weeks once we have your content and brand assets. E-commerce or custom application work takes longer and is scoped separately. Pricing is fixed-price per project, quoted up front, with hosting + SSL + security headers + AI chatbot + ongoing content updates rolled into a flat monthly fee after launch.

Can the AI chatbot in the corner of this site be added to ours?

Yes. The same chatbot architecture — front-end widget, back-end API, custom prompt trained on your business and services, lead capture into your CRM or email — drops into any site we host. We custom-prompt it to your offerings, your hours, your pricing logic, and your lead-qualification questions. It runs on a paid Gemini tier and answers in your voice. See AI Solutions for the broader AI offering.

Do you handle ongoing content updates after the site is live?

Yes. The flat monthly hosting fee includes a reasonable budget for ongoing content updates — new pages, copy edits, image swaps, blog posts, seasonal banners. In a typical month that's one or two small changes; sometimes none. There's no nickel-and-diming for small changes. Bigger initiatives (a full new section, a third-party integration, a redesign) are quoted separately as a project.
