About Me

Carlos — Carlos Web Design

I'm Carlos, a freelance web designer focused on building clean, modern websites for small businesses. I care about getting the details right—spacing, color, motion, and how a site feels to actually use, not just how it looks in a screenshot.

Whether you're starting from scratch or need a fresh look for an existing business, I'll work with you to build something that fits your brand and makes a strong first impression online.

My Approach

Communication

Every project starts with a clear quote and a straight answer about timeline and cost — no surprises once the invoice shows up.

Craftsmanship

Custom-coded, not templated. Every site is custom code, tuned for the business it's actually for.

Security

CompTIA Security+ certified. Every client site gets 2FA, encrypted backups, and hardened hosting as standard — not an add-on.

Design First

Every project starts with a Figma mockup, so you see and approve the design before I write a single line of code.

Tools & Technologies

Node.js & Express

Custom-built backends, not page builders — full control over how a site actually works.

Secure payments, subscriptions, and billing.

SQLite

Fast, reliable data storage for bookings, quotes, and client accounts.

Cloudflare

DNS, SSL, and DDoS protection in front of every client site.

🐳

Docker

Isolated, reproducible deployments for consistent, reliable hosting.

🔒

Security & Backups

Nightly backups and hardened server configs on every hosted site.
