Thread: Website designer recommendations?

I've been wanting to hire a professional to work on my site for a while, and I'm finally in a position to start shopping seriously.

If you hired someone to design yours & you were happy with the whole experience, I'd appreciate it if you'd share their info/website & the site they designed for you.

Any less than happy experiences please don't post here, just PM me if you feel strongly to warn me away from anyone in particular. Thanks!..g.:

Michelle Joyce makes really nice websites. I don't know how busy she is now, though since she has a new baby.

My webdude's work...

My other webdude's work...

My boyfriend is a freelance pro web designer/developer. He's working on mine right now, so I don't have an example for you, but if you email him, he could show you his portfolio and give you a quote based on what you want. jacob dot roufa at gmail dot com.

Dude, I'm telling you. Talk to Brian!

Where are the other DreamStar Studios fangirls at? Shahrzad (Vasha Hatal) and Alimah Amani are also very happy clients, and also he did the website for the Theatrical Belly Dance Intensive!

His work is in the neighborhood of a 3-costume expense, but the results are so gorgeous, you'll recoup your investment in no time!

Wow, I think I need to ask for a raise... or start moonlighting.

You have a WordPress-based site, right?

hey I'm here! Yes... I'm a huge fan of Brian of Dreamstarstudios... he does all kinda of sites not just for dancers.. but dancers seem to be his specialty. His wife dances too! I just changed my dance name and am getting a new better re-vamped site. But he's amazing about working w/ you and creating your vision.. and making your vision bigger and brighter. Also look up Jaida's site.. another awesome belly dance one he did. He also does photography, promotional materials (buscards/dvd covers/postcards..posters.. clothing designs haha anything you can think of he's alreayd thought of! )
I'll keep you all updated on my new business cards he's designing for me and my new site.
*my new site isn't up yet.. so just don't bother trying that yet.*

I suggest Sean at bigashdog.com
He's working on mine and almost done. Although I am definitely holding up the job by not having my stuff together =)
But it looks great! He does nice work.

Word to Brian!!! I have worked with him on Ranya's new site (www.ranya.net) and on www.theatricalbellydance.com. The sites are beautiful and dynamic, and Brian is great to work with. He's taught me a lot through screencast tutorials and skype. -Raqsie
