How We Work
Discover & Plan
We start by learning your business, goals, audience, and competition — then define the right site structure, design direction, and SEO strategy before any work begins.
Design & Build
We design and develop your custom WordPress website with a focus on usability, performance, and mobile responsiveness. SEO best practices are built in from the start, not bolted on later.
Optimize & Retest
Before launch, we fine-tune on-page SEO, page speed, cross-device compatibility, and quality assurance so your site looks great and functions flawlessly.
Launch & Grow
Once you're live, we don't disappear. We provide ongoing support, updates, and SEO improvements so your website keeps performing, ranking, and converting over time.

What Our Jacksonville & Ponte Vedra Clients Say
Pete Wilcox
I have worked with Robert Arthur Designs (RAD) several times for various projects including website restructuring, graphic design and promotional materials. Robert was very personable, professional, and delivered ahead of schedule. Him and his team are fantastic, and we will continue to use RAD.
Robert K.
I am a fan of RAD. I just realized your name should be RAD not Robert Arthur. That being said, RAD does great work. I have used him on a number of web design projects and he has always done great work. BIG BIG Value - he doesn't disappear. So if your client forgot to pay the hosting. The website does not go into the big blue. Highly recommended.
Theresa G.
