Happy Clients

    I cannot recommend Happy Little Websites enough. I was so impressed with Nicolette’s attention to detail but at the same time her patience with me (a non tech person). The experience of her building my web site was streamlined, professional, and thorough. I’ve already seen results. More importantly she heard me. She heard (through all my words) what I REALLY wanted to convey to potential clients and I couldn’t be more grateful. I think it’s rare to find a combination of artistic and creative AND organized and up on tech. Do not hesitate to invest in your business in this way!

  • 👨‍💻

    "Nicolette provided excellent communication throughout my website refresh project. I found her ideas and design to be creative and she implemented the latest look and feel into the refresh. She demonstrated impressive technical expertise. My site is in Squarespace, so I wanted to be able to continue to maintain my website going forward. She provided instructional videos on how to do some of the new maintenance processes. I highly recommend Nicolette for your website development/refresh."

    -David Halper, MN Online Counseling
