Short thoughts, work in progress, lessons learned, & the occasional personal update.
Looking at these skylight photos all day got me thinking. What’s it like living in a house with a transparent roof like that? Then I imagined having one here in PH. Sounds great when it rains. Then summer hits 😂
jk, these skylights are actually automated and packed with features.
WPBakery might be the only page builder where the experience is equally rough whether you’re using backend or frontend editing. Divi handles this way better.
Sorry, I keep comparing these two because they both offer both modes, but the quality gap is real. Credit to the Divi team for getting that right!
I just realized I wasn’t able to record everything. Now I’m trying to piece together all the info I remember and the photos I have.
The insights they shared were pretty overwhelming 😅
I have an urgent page build using WPBakery. Although we have a 1-week deadline, I’m confident I can deliver. But seriously, at least give us a custom CSS field per widget. Even Divi has that!
I’m not really the type to rant about tools I use for work. I get that every builder is built differently. But every time I have a project using this one, it just takes so much longer than it should.
You know, one thing that still bugs me is not asking my old clients to leave their review on my Google Business page.
I just collected them through email or other apps. Should’ve known better 😬
You know what makes doing this stuff worth it? People who still remember you and refer you even if you haven’t spoken in a long time!
Just got an inquiry! Turns out someone I spoke with 2 years ago referred them. As a small service provider, that kind of thing means a lot 🙂
Late night timelapse of us getting things done. I don’t know why, but I always feel more productive at night.
Also, I just recently got that standing desk, and I can’t appreciate enough how helpful it is when you’re getting older 😂
See those long page designs? It’s still Wednesday but I guess I’m gonna be working even on the weekend 🥲
I’m not sure if this is just me, but handling web projects + creating content at the same time is kinda stressful.
Especially when you’re working on it alone. Still grateful for it though.
Finally set up a quick way to share thoughts on my site. Not everything needs to be a full blog post.
New blog about this feature coming soon!
You’ve built something real. But if your website doesn’t show that, you’re missing out on people who are already looking for what you offer. Let’s fix that.
A booking system integration that made it easy for guests to check availability and book online.
We’ve seen noticeable improvements in overall quality, organization, and presentation. There was also a clear boost in efficiency and customer engagement.
Your site gets built with SEO and AI visibility in mind. So when people search for what you offer, on Google or through tools like ChatGPT, you’ve got the best chance of showing up.
Visitors decide in seconds if they trust your business. A clean, professional site makes sure that first impression works in your favor.
No more stressing about your website. You get back to doing what you’re good at while your site handles the first impression.
I stick around after your site goes live. Updates, fixes, and ongoing care so everything keeps running smooth.
No complicated process. Just a straightforward way to get your site done right.
You share what your business does, who your customers are, and what you want the site to do. I ask questions so I really get it.
I take care of the technical side. Design, development, SEO, and AI visibility. You get updates along the way so there are no surprises.
Your site goes live. It loads quick, looks sharp, and you know how to manage it. Plus you get 3 months of complimentary site care so everything stays in good shape.
Every booking through Airbnb or Booking.com costs you 15-20% in commissions. That adds up fast. A direct booking website gives your guests a way to book straight with you, so you keep more of what you earn.
Reduce OTA commissions and keep more revenue from every booking.
Own your guest data so you can bring them back without paying a platform.
Build a brand your guests remember, not just another listing.
Egoy was very easy to work with. He was exceptionally responsive and professional. I was very impressed with the overall quality and finish of our website design. Would highly recommend his services.
A few recent builds across different industries.
Questions I hear all the time. If yours isn’t here, just ask.
I can work with other platforms, but Bricks Builder is where I do my best work. If your project is on a different platform, I’ll be upfront about whether it’s the right fit for both of us.
My web design service costs can vary a lot based on the design’s complexity, number of pages, special features, and customization. To give you an accurate quote, I’d like to chat about what you need and what you want to achieve with your website. This way, I can create a proposal that fits your vision and budget.
On average, it takes about 4 weeks to design and develop a website, but this can vary depending on the features and design complexity. During this development process, there will be rounds of revisions. Overall, for a complete web design process, development can take anywhere from 4 to 12 weeks.
Yes. Your site is built on WordPress, so if you can type an email, you can update your content. I’ll show you how before handoff.
You get 3 months of complimentary site care. That covers updates, security, backups, and any fixes that come up. After that, you can choose to extend it or I can hand things over when you feel ready.
I offer flexible payment plans. For example, our website design process is divided into six phases, allowing us to split the payments into six installments. Depending on your website type, you should consider additional costs for design, hosting, and maintenance. I’m here to help you explore your options and find the best solution for your needs.
Egoy was fantastic to work with, very quick with moving the project forward and always met deadlines.
Would 100% recommend Egoy, he did a fantastic job on my website, was easy to work with, explained the technical side and what he needed to make things work.
