What We Do

Splendid Spider specializes in relatively simple, low cost website designs. Located in Thousand Oaks, California, it is a small company with an extensive technological background.

We've been making websites since 1996, which was just as Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser was getting launched. Rather than relying on pre-packaged build-your-own-website tools, which almost always seemed to produce pages that wouldn't work right, the pages were built by hand in a text editor. It's stayed that way because most pre-packaged site builders still don't do it right.

We're here to help our customers get a presence on the web. Sometimes all that's needed is a single page that has a phone number, address, business description and maybe a map. Adding a company logo helps visitors quickly identify that they are looking at the right place.

Maybe you're a person that what only wants a page on the web to make it easier for old friends to contact you. A web page can give you a better chance of being found if somebody types your name into Google. We can also discuss ways of improving those changes by adding "social networking" elements into your site.

Some customers will want a little more. Perhaps a restaurant will want their menu to be shown. Maybe some customer testimonials should be added, or awards displayed.

We prefer to only work on small projects. This keeps us from having all of our resources tied up for long periods of time with one or two large customers. Larger projects also require other types of support which we may not be able to provide. Either way, we want to be honest about it when we discuss your site, and can help you even if your project is too big for us to take on alone.

We want to help you get on the web while preserving your company's unique personality. We want to do it quickly and either do it for a one-time fee, or have an arrangement for periodic updates.
