Don Schnitzius planning a web project, drawing a path from traffic to conversion on a map with UX, SEO, performance, and security panels.

Don Schnitzius

I build websites that are clear, fast, and built to last.

WordPress platforms, interfaces, and front-end systems for founders and small teams.

What I can do for you

I work with people who own what they’re building.

I design and build web sites and applications, create content, structure navigation, and write front-end code.

Themes, plugins, memberships, forms, integrations, performance, accessibility, and troubleshooting — all the practical work that turns an idea into a working site.

Then I stay on to support and maintain it over time.

Sometimes I improve an existing product. Other times I build something new. In either case, my job is to turn rough ideas into systems that work.

What I work on

Modern Web Platforms

WordPress, Webflow, Wix, Shopify — I work where you are. I handle redesigns, migrations, accessibility, and performance tuning so your site stays stable, secure, and fast as it grows.

Product interfaces

Platforms, apps, and custom sites where design has to survive real use. I create and update interfaces, wireframes, and design-to-code work that respects the constraints of the browser and the needs of the user.

Structure and systems

The content and logic that keep a project organized. I create the copy, images, and workflows that turn messy ideas into clean systems, documented so they can be managed long after I’ve handed off the keys.


My work starts when something matters enough to do it right, and keep it working.
