Freelance Web Design · Pensacola, FL
Websites that
mean business.
I'm Riley Hicks, a web designer in Pensacola. I build clean, fast websites for local trades and restaurants — the kind that get you more calls, more quotes, and more tables filled.

Looks great on every
screen there is.
A fine-dining restaurant on desktop, a plumbing site on mobile — two very different businesses, each designed for how its customers actually browse. Scroll to see each one move; both are live, so click the laptop or the phone to explore them.

Who I build for
I specialize.
So you stand out.
I focus on two kinds of local business — which means I already understand what your customers look for and how to get them to act.
Trades
Electricians · Plumbers · HVAC · Roofers · Contractors
Your customers are usually in a hurry and on their phone. I build sites that make it dead simple to see what you do, trust that you're legit, and tap to call or request a quote — fast.
Restaurants
Cafes · Bars · Seafood · Food trucks · Local kitchens
People decide where to eat from their phones in seconds. I build mouth-watering sites with clear menus, hours, photos, and easy links to order or reserve — so they choose you.
What I do
Everything your
site needs.
From the first sketch to launch day and beyond — one person, fully accountable, start to finish.
Custom Web Design
A site designed around your business — not a template every other contractor or cafe is already using.
Click-to-Call & Quotes
Big, obvious ways for customers to call you or request a quote, built right into every page.
Menus & Ordering
For restaurants: clean digital menus, hours, photos, and links to order or reserve — always up to date.
Get Found Locally
Built so you show up when someone in Pensacola searches for what you do, on a site that loads instantly.
Redesigns
Got a slow, dated site that's costing you customers? I rebuild it into something that earns trust on sight.
Ongoing Support
Menu changed? New service area? Send me a text and it's handled — no logging into anything yourself.
How it works
Simple, clear,
no surprises.
Discovery
We talk through your goals, your customers, and what success looks like for you.
Design
I design a look that feels unmistakably yours — and get your sign-off before building.
Build
Your site gets built, tested, and polished on every device until it's pixel-perfect.
Launch
We go live. I make sure everything works, then hand you the keys.
Pricing
Simple, flat pricing.
No hourly billing and no surprises — you get one clear quote before any work starts.

Questions
Good to know.
How much does a website cost? +
Most sites run $400–$700, one-time, depending on how many pages and features you need. You'll always get a clear, flat quote before any work begins — no hourly billing, no surprises.
How long does it take? +
A typical small-business site goes from our first call to launch in about 1–3 weeks, depending on how quickly we gather your content and feedback.
What do you need from me? +
Your logo if you have one, a few photos, and the basics about your business. No tech knowledge needed — I handle everything else.
Do you only work with trades and restaurants? +
Those are my focus, but I'm glad to talk with any local business. Specializing just means I already understand what your customers are looking for.
What happens after it launches? +
I make sure everything works and hand it over. Need ongoing changes down the road? An optional care plan keeps it fresh — just text me what to update.
I already have a website. Can you redesign it? +
Definitely. Redesigns are a big part of what I do — I'll rebuild a slow or dated site into something fast and modern that earns trust.
