Here's the thing: a page is great for staying in touch with customers. But if that's your only web presence, you're missing out on the people who are searching for what you do.

We just wrote about why small businesses need more than just social media, and what that actually looks like.

Take 5 minutes and see if this applies to your business.

🎉We rebuilt the Anchor Websites site from the ground up! ⚓️ Since 2016, we have delivered 500+ projects for our clients, but our own digital front door was starting to feel a bit like an afterthought. 🏠

The new site is live and features:

⚡️ A cleaner, faster experience that better reflects who we are today.
🗓️ Transparent details on our flat-rate pricing and 4 to 6 week timelines.
🧬A direct look at how we help small businesses and life science innovators.

Everything you see was designed and coded right here in Hudson by our two-person team. All custom and no outsourcing. ✍️

Take a look at the new anchorwebsites.com and let us know what you think. 💻

If your website hasn’t been updated in years, it’s probably doing at least one of these:

• slow on mobile
• forms not working
• outdated info that makes you look inactive
• broken pages/images

If you want, send us your URL and we'll provide feedback.

Building a website for a biotech company is a lot different than building one for a coffee shop. When your work involves complex cell systems or life-saving research, you cannot just slap a generic template together and call it a day.

🔬We spend a lot of time in the technical weeds with life science firms across the Twin Cities and around the world. While we do not focus exclusively on biotech, we love the challenge of translating complex data into a site that actually makes sense to investors and researchers.

📣Whether we are building a high-tech medical platform or a site for a local service business, our process stays the same. We handle every single detail in-house. We have delivered over 500 projects since 2016, and we never outsource the work to contractors who do not understand your business goals.

If a designer cannot explain what you do, they definitely cannot sell it to your audience.

📄We just put together a guide on what to look for in a web partner if you are in the life science world. Even if you are not in biotech, it is a good look at how we think about professional, high-stakes design.
