David Martin Design

Clear answers. Lasting help.

Bloomington web design and digital marketing.

David Martin Design is an independent web studio in Bloomington, Indiana. I design and build accessible WordPress websites for small businesses, professional practices, and nonprofits, then host and look after them so they keep working. The work reaches past the website too: search and Google Business Profile, email and domains, AI tools, and plain-English advice on the technology around a business. In practice since 1998, studio since 2004, and small enough that you can actually reach me.

What I do

Web design and development: Accessible websites, built carefully, tested against WCAG standards, and structured so the people who use them every day can keep them current.

WordPress: I build and support self-hosted WordPress sites. It is open source, so your website stays yours, and I will help you make the most of it.

Managed hosting and maintenance: Updates, backups, monitoring, and a person who answers.

SEO: Clear page structure, schema data, and accurate business information, so Google and Bing can understand what you do.

Local search: Accurate details on your Google Business Profile, Bing Places, Yelp, and the directories for your field, so people nearby can find you.

Website analytics: Google Analytics and Search Console, so you can see who visits, what they read, and how they found you. We can talk through the numbers weekly, monthly, or quarterly.

Social media: Help setting up Facebook and LinkedIn business pages, running Facebook ads, and deciding which other platforms are worth your time.

Domain names: Help researching, choosing, and registering a domain name that fits your business.

Photography: Documentary and local work in Bloomington, Monroe County, and southern Indiana: real rooms, available light, and people doing something rather than posing.

Strategy and consulting: Honest options for your website and marketing, including when you do not need something.

Troubleshooting: When something breaks, when Google changes something, or when you need to decide whether a new tool is worth the trouble, I am the person to call.

Most of my client relationships have lasted for years, which is the point. Read client reviews.
