About

One developer. 25 years of practice.

Allen Taylor

My love of computers started young. The internet was new, I was hooked, and I haven't stopped building things on it since.

I cut my teeth in the military, maintaining and updating my unit's website. Back then "inline CSS" was just CSS, and frameworks didn't exist yet. From there I built single and multi-page sites, then moved into Wordpress and Joomla — and eventually faced some hard truths about CMS platforms.

So I went head-first into actually learning to code. HTML, CSS, JavaScript — and now Django/Python. I'm currently building a CRM platform for fire departments. The flexibility and control you get from real code beats any drag-and-drop builder, every single time.

Services

What I build

Whatever your situation — new project, broken site, or somewhere in between — there's a path forward.

New websites

One-page or multi-page, hand-coded from scratch. You provide the content; I deliver something that loads in under a second and looks the way it should on every screen.

Site rebuilds

Got a slow, vulnerable Wordpress site that breaks every time you touch it? Let's tear it down and build something solid. Same content, none of the headaches.

Hosting & domains

Premium hosting on top-tier servers, plus domain registration handled for you. If you ever leave my service, the domain comes with you. No lock-in, no surprises.

Why hand-coded

Page builders are fine. Until they're not.

Wordpress, Wix, page builders — they all have their place. But for a small business that just needs a site that looks great, loads fast, and doesn't get hacked? Hand-coded wins.

Faster

No bloated themes, no 30 plugins fighting each other, no database queries on every page. Just clean code that loads in under a second.

Safer

Nothing to hack. No admin login, no plugins to keep updated, no zero-day exploits. Static sites are the most secure sites on the internet.

Yours

You own every line of code. SSL, domain privacy, off-site backups — all included. If you ever decide to host elsewhere, the site goes with you.

FAQ

Common questions

What do you recommend for a standard business website?

Hand-coded, every time. A standard business site just needs to convey information clearly and load fast — that's exactly what custom code does best. If a developer tries to sell you Wordpress as a "custom coded website," walk away. Most Wordpress builds end up slow and vulnerable to attacks.

Do you ever use Wordpress or page builders?

Absolutely — when they're the right tool. E-commerce stores, course platforms, blogs with frequent author updates, and sales funnels are all good fits for platforms. But for a brochure site that just needs to look great and load fast? Hand-coded wins.

How long does a project take?

A one-page site usually takes 1–2 weeks once I have your content and assets. Multi-page sites take 3–4 weeks. The biggest variable is how quickly we can finalize your content — the code itself is the fast part.

What's included in hosting?

SSL certificate, domain privacy, off-site backups, and 99.9% uptime hosting on premium servers. All standard, no extra fees. If you ever leave, your domain transfers cleanly with no holdup.

What if I want to update the site myself?

For most small business sites, content changes once or twice a year — and I handle those for you, included. If you need to update content frequently (like a blog), I'll build it on a CMS that fits your workflow. Either way: clean code, no bloat.

Do you work with clients outside of Indiana?

Yes. I work with clients all over the country and have for years. Most of our communication happens over email and video calls — geography hasn't been a factor in a long time.
