Jon Raasch’s Summary

Using modern programming techniques, I design beautiful user interfaces that are dynamic and engaging without the loss of search engine spiderability.

Fully integrating your message and goals into intuitive web hallways where the design, development and branding work as one; I make websites that are as accessible to users as they are to Googlebot. This well-rounded approach is essential to designing websites that stick out enough amongst the crowd to become pillars in their web communities.

I work on an independent/free-lance basis and do part-time contract jobs.
