Portrait of Marcus Carter, freelance web designer and developer.

I design clean, intuitive websites that put your customers first. From first sketch to launch day, you work directly with me — no account managers, no hand-offs.

About Me

I'm Marcus Carter, a freelance designer and developer in Austin, Texas. For nine years I've designed, built and launched websites and online stores for small businesses — one project at a time, with fixed prices and plain-English updates.

Every call, every design and every line of code comes from me, and most new work arrives by referral. If we're a fit, your project gets my full attention until it ships.

My Services

Three things I do well — pick one, or hand me the whole project from first sketch to launch day.

My Work Experience

Lead Designer, Austin TX

Year 2021 - Present

Lead Freelance Designer & Developer

Fixed-price websites, stores and brands — two projects at a time, done properly. Strategy, design, code, launch and 30 days of free fixes, all from one person.

Designer, Austin TX

Year 2017 - 2021

Freelance Web Designer

The first fifty projects for local businesses across Texas. Word spread, referrals took over, and stores and brand work joined the menu.

Studio designer, Texas

Year 2013 - 2017

Junior Web Designer

Learned the craft on big-brand accounts — and learned that clients deserve the senior they paid for. So I went solo and became that senior.

Testimonials

Don't take my word for it — here's what owners say after launch.

The phone hasn't stopped.

Marcus rebuilt our store and sales followed within weeks. He thinks like a business partner, not a hired hand.

Demo bookings doubled.

Fast, honest, and absurdly easy to work with. The new pages paid for themselves before summer.

Top three on search.

From invisible to booked out in four months. On time, on budget, and the brand finally matches our work.

Catering up 40%.

Logo, menus and a one-page site for three locations — handled end to end while we kept running the cafés.
