- custom website design and development in Maryville, Tennessee
Every Pixel, Purposefully Yours
I build tailored, modern websites for those in need of a digital home - for a small business, an organization, an event, or a project you want people to find.
Recent Work
Wendy, a client from Indianapolis, Indiana, runs a professional home-organizing business. She came to me to replace a developer who was charging a premium and fixing very little. I rebuilt her site by catering towards her objectives, and I maintain it myself now - for less than she was paying before.
How redesigns workMy Process
- Discovery - a conversation about your business, what the site needs to do, and who you want it to reach. You get a real timeline and a real number before anything begins.
- Paint a Picture - you describe your business and illustrate what you have in mind, whether that be with pictures, samples, or other websites so that we can make your vision come to life.
- Build - design and development, with check-ins as the website progresses. Two rounds of revisions are included (three in Business), so you can squarely voice how you would like to modify the site.
- Launch - I set up the hosting and connect your domain, registered in your name, so the technical side never lands on your desk. The site goes live working on both desktop and mobile from day one.
- Going Forward - a maintenance plan keeps your site hosted, updated, backed up, and monitored, with an email from me every two weeks on how your site's traffic is doing. Prefer to host it yourself? I hand it over to you.
How I Got Started
Michael J. Chynoweth
Maryville, Tennessee - working with clients anywhere
When I first began programming, what always sparked my curiosity was how I would be able to use this skill to help those around me. I truly gained passion for web design when a school project turned into a 100+ hour dedication site, centered around trying to ease campus navigation for students and teachers: GuidePost360.
I started M.C. Innovates because I wanted to see every client as a person; many web developers design one-size-fits-all sites, making minimal changes to a wide range of clients. I want to get to know my clients, and use that connection to create a detail-specific site for them.
I am not a web developer to just build Lego sets, creating a template that will snap together the same way for everyone who buys it. Your business doesn't work like that, and the site representing it shouldn't either. I am a web developer to add personality and flair to the online presence of the businesses I help.
Why Work With Me
One Person, Start to Finish
No agency, nobody to chase. The person you talk to builds your site, and manages any specialists it needs.
No Strings Attached
Your site runs on everyday, industry-standard tools rather than anything only I can touch. If you ever want to switch developers, you can.
A Customized Approach
I don't start from a template, I start from a conversation. And never stock photography - your site should be as distinct as you are.
Transparency
Proactive updates, reliable timelines, and straightforward pricing with no hidden charges.
Who I Work With
I work with small businesses, independent professionals, and organizations that need a simple and creative way to connect with their users. If your business is larger than that, I'm still interested - it just means a longer conversation first.
- Small businesses launching their first website
- Independent professionals and solo practitioners
- Businesses outgrowing a DIY site builder or a template
- Nonprofits, clubs, and community groups that need a home online
What clients say
Outstanding! Working with MC Innovates was the most favorable experience I’ve ever had (during 20+ years) in working with a web design company. If you’re looking for purposeful design, aesthetic artistry, and psychological impact, look no further.
