The things i do
Business Strategy
Your website should do more than just look pretty. What are your business goals, and how will your site help you achieve them?
Brand Identity
Your brand should be identifiable and memorable. You will need a logo and a signature color palette, and your website should be an extension of your brand identity.
User Experience (UX)
Visiting your website should be a pleasant and engaging experience for your customers. The site should hold their attention and connect them efficiently with the content that they’re looking for.

the difference
Clay Johnson Digital is a one-person digital design agency located in Laramie, Wyoming.
Creating a website requires a wide variety of skills. From concept development and information architecture to graphic design, coding, and scripting, there’s a lot to be done. And the integration of all these parts into a smoothly functioning web presence is no mean feat. Larger web design firms will have separate departments to handle all of these facets of the job; and that can work well. But if one person can take a project from concept to completion there’s that much less chance of a communication breakdown or misunderstanding.
My Process
I serve as Project Manager, Creative Director, Technical Director, Graphic Designer, Front-End Coder, and Writer/Editor. And even when a project requires hiring some extra help or expertise, I still keep things small enough to prevent anything falling through the cracks. With a hand (or two) in every part of each site I build, and a vision for how it all fits together, the awesomeness of your site is assured.

About Clay
Back when Coach K was still in the process of shaping Blue Devil basketball into the program of glory and world dominance it is today, I attended Duke University, where I studied art and art history. For several years thereafter I worked as assistant to one of the great American painters of the 20th (and 21st) century, Robert Natkin.
I then spent a decade in the San Francisco Bay Area, working in graphic design, technical writing, illustration, Mac tech support, and web design. All of the skills one might need to build a website? Yes!
