Ask me anything before you commit

👋 I'm Erick Acevedo, a design engineer based in Colombia. For 9 years I've helped businesses plan, design, and launch websites that build trust and bring in clients, and I lead every project personally, so you always have a direct line to the person accountable for your site.

I work with clients across the US, Canada, and worldwide, including:

• Startups and SaaS companies
• Service businesses and consultants
• eCommerce brands and online retailers
• Non-profits and NGOs
• Entrepreneurs and early-stage founders

I build landing pages, marketing websites, and custom eCommerce stores, and I cover the strategy, design, engineering, and SEO.

With me. I'm your point of contact from the discovery call to launch, and I lead the design and the build of your site.

That means a few things in practice:

• You always know who is responsible for your site
• Feedback goes straight to me, with no telephone game in between
• Decisions get made fast, because there are no layers to go through
• What you pay funds design, engineering, and growth, not agency overhead

On more ambitious projects, I'm backed by a small team I trust. I stay your point of contact and review every piece of work before it reaches you.

I only take on as many projects as I can do well at once. If my calendar is full, I'll tell you upfront instead of stretching your timeline.

Fair question, especially when you're hiring someone you found online. Here is what protects you:

• Work you can check: 194 websites since 2017, and every project in my portfolio links to the live site
• A fixed price: agreed in writing before any work begins, with no surprise invoices
• Secure payments: through PayPal, with its buyer protection
• A satisfaction guarantee: if you don't like the result, ask for a refund before you approve the finished site and I'll return what you've paid, no questions asked
• A 90-day warranty: any bug you report after launch gets fixed at no cost
• Ownership: once the project is paid, your website's content and design are yours, except for a few design elements that remain my intellectual property

All of this is written into my Terms and Conditions, so you don't have to take my word for it.

Yes. Strategy, UX, UI design, copywriting, development, SEO, and launch all go through me, so nothing gets lost in a handoff.

AI handles the mechanical parts of the process, which lets me move fast without cutting corners. For work that is really outside my lane (custom photography, video production), I'll tell you plainly and point you to a partner I trust rather than pretend to cover it.

The cost depends on the scope, complexity, and your specific business goals. Here is a general breakdown of my packages:

• Landing pages and small websites: the most accessible entry point, ideal for focused campaigns and lead generation
• Marketing and corporate websites: mid-range packages with full design, copywriting, SEO, and development
• Online stores and custom projects: quoted case by case, once I understand the scope

Because I work from Colombia, my rates are significantly lower than US or European agencies, which charge $5,000 to $15,000+ for comparable work. The quality and the process are the same. See the pricing section above, or request a free call to get a custom quote.

Timelines depend on scope, content availability, and review cycles. Here are my standard ranges:

• Landing pages: 1 to 2 weeks
• Marketing and corporate websites: 3 to 4 weeks
• eCommerce stores: 4 to 6 weeks

These timelines are a fraction of what a traditional agency quotes. AI agents do the build work against a clear spec while I review and test everything before it ships. Fast to ship, never vibecoded.

Timelines can still vary based on your feedback speed, content delivery, and third-party integrations. If you have a tight deadline, tell me on the discovery call and I'll tell you honestly whether I can hit it.

Two reasons.

First, I run lean. There is no big office, no sales department, no layers of account managers, and no markup stacked on top of subcontractors. What you pay goes into the actual design, engineering, and SEO of your site.

Second, I work from Colombia, where operating costs are far lower than in North America or Europe. Work that would cost $5,000 to $15,000+ elsewhere costs a fraction of that here, with 9 years of experience behind it.

Yes. Most of my clients are based in the United States and Canada, and I also work with businesses across Latin America, Europe, and beyond.

I work fully remotely and communicate through video calls, email, and project management tools. Projects run on a clear rhythm: scheduled calls at key milestones and written updates in between, so you always know where things stand, whatever your time zone.

I pick the stack to fit your project:

• Figma: every layout is designed and prototyped before a line of code is written
• React / Next.js: for custom web apps and high-performance marketing sites
• Astro: for fast static sites and landing pages that load almost instantly
• WordPress with Elementor or Avada: for sites you can update yourself, without touching code
• WooCommerce: for online stores with full control over products, inventory, and payments
• Supabase: for databases, user accounts, and logins when a project needs a backend
• Laravel: for custom web applications with complex back-end requirements
• Cloudflare and AWS: for DNS, CDN, security, and cloud hosting that keeps your site fast and online
• Claude: AI that speeds up the mechanical work, while every decision and every line of code stays reviewed by me

Every project is built with SEO best practices, mobile-first responsive design, and performance optimization from the start.

Yes, every day. It is how I work: I direct AI agents (Claude Code, with the hooks and automated checks I have set up) and I am accountable for everything they produce.

Every project follows the same flow:

1. Spec: a short brief of what the site must do, written as outcomes we can check
2. Build: agents build against that spec while I make the design and architecture calls
3. Review: I read every change before it is accepted
4. Verify: automated QA and end-to-end tests, then my own pass on real browsers and devices

That is what lets me deliver much faster than a traditional agency without cutting corners on the fundamentals: real typography and accessibility rules, clean code another developer can pick up, and performance and SEO from the first commit.

I do not vibecode. Vibecoding is shipping whatever the prompt returned. I ship what passed my checks, and you never get a black box nobody understands.

Then you don't pay for it. Every project comes with a simple guarantee: if you're not happy, ask for a refund at any point before you approve the finished site, and I'll return what you've paid. No questions asked.

Before it comes to that, I'll keep refining layouts, visual direction, and key details based on your feedback, at no extra charge, until the site looks the way you want.

What the refund covers and when it applies is spelled out in the Terms and Conditions.

Yes. For most projects, I split payments into two parts:

1. 50% upfront to begin the project and reserve my production time.
2. 50% on delivery, due within 20 calendar days of the first payment or at project handoff, whichever comes first.

All payments are processed securely through PayPal, which supports credit cards, debit cards, and bank transfers. Full details are in the Terms and Conditions, or ask me on your free discovery call.

It depends on the type of website and the package you choose. I confirm it on the discovery call, so the scope and requirements are clear before any work begins.

The materials I most often need are:

• Brand assets (logo, colors, and fonts, if you already have them)
• Photos of your team and workspace, or reference images
• Site content (copy, PDFs, service details, FAQs, and so on)
• Team bios or staff profiles, if relevant
• Any videos you want to embed
• Access to your current website or hosting, if there is a migration

If some of this already lives on your current site, in many cases I can carry it over and adapt it to the new version.
