No second string.
When you hire us, you get us. We’ll never hand your project off to some subcontractor, college intern, overseas freelancer, or AI page builder. You’ll always be able to talk with a real person who can help.
Ern Berck Digital has been doing the website for our Chico Concours d’Elegance for over 20 years. I can’t speak highly enough of them. They are smart, prompt, efficient and totally dedicated. The best! They really, really know their stuff.

We never call in sick.
Most small businesses don’t have the resources or desire to maintain their websites. That’s normal. We can manage your site and help you create an Internet strategy that’s a profit center instead of a sinkhole. We’re like a long-term, part-time employee — Who doesn’t need benefits, never shows up late, and never calls in sick.
The power of small.
No fluff.
Big design teams can suck the life out of website projects. But small teams often get stuff done with no whining, no drama, and no egos to trip over. We’re small, smart, charming, semi-affordable, and devote uncommon attention to our clients. And we love what we do. That’s pretty much it. The rest is just fluff.
Add freely, subtract ruthlessly.
We doodle a lot when we design and develop websites. Things get messy. Then we go back and improve things. Typically we get rid of a bunch of stuff. The end result often looks deceptively simple, but it carries the weight of a lot of thoughtful chaos.
And that’s the kind of design that actually connects with people. It’s intuitive, clean, and effortless on the surface, but a lot of effort went into achieving it. The work means something.
We’re not full service.
And we don’t pretend to be. We’re not brand strategists or vibe translators. We don’t design business cards. We won’t do your Facebook memes, TikTok ads, magnetic signs, or YouTube videos. Why? Because most companies that claim they can do everything excel at nothing. We choose to do one thing and do it right.
