Dead Pixel Design
Web design in Bangor, Maine

A web designer who knows eastern Maine because he lives up here.

Dead Pixel Design is one person in Houlton, up I-95 from Bangor. I plan the pages with you, design and build the site, and answer the phone myself. The content work is agreed in the quote before I start.

Three eastern Maine projects. Three different jobs for a website.

We’ve Got You Covered in Dover-Foxcroft needed separate paths for marine canvas, upholstery, repairs, and a Square storefront. The site gives customers a way to find the right service, request a quote, or buy from the shop.

Awaken Reiki Studio, also in Dover-Foxcroft, needed a replacement site that explained the practice and showed live Square availability. Visitors can request a session, which Camilla confirms herself.

Visit Milo, Maine is a town site for a volunteer committee in Milo. Residents post events and businesses add their own listings, volunteers approve them from their phones, and the committee runs it without a webmaster.

Every small business has a void that needs to be filled with behind the scenes work. David helps with that, in a HUGE way.

Why up here matters

Based in Houlton. Working with businesses around Bangor.

Bangor is the nearest city to my studio in Houlton. I work remotely, so a business in Brewer or Orono can work directly with the person building its site without a trip down I-95.

The two Dover-Foxcroft projects above had different customers and different next steps. One needed service paths and a shop. The other needed clear answers about Reiki and a booking request. That’s the work: find out what your customers need to know, then build around it.

What you get

Clear pages, working contact paths, and search foundations.

We work out what you sell, who needs it, and what each page should say. I structure and edit the material you have. If the job needs substantial new copy or research, it goes in the written scope.

Search foundations are part of the build: clear pages, titles and descriptions, a sitemap, and indexing checks. Google decides where those pages rank.

A fixed quote and timeline before I start. You know what the work includes.

Greater Bangor and beyond

Bangor, the towns around it, and the rest of the north.

I work remotely with businesses across eastern and northern Maine, including:

  • Bangor and Downtown
  • Brewer
  • Orono and Old Town
  • Hampden and Hermon
  • Holden and Eddington
  • Ellsworth
  • Newport and Lincoln
  • Dover-Foxcroft

From the brief to a working website.

Tell me what the business does, what your current site is missing, and what you want a visitor to do. I’ll put the pages, content work, features, price, and timeline in a written scope before building anything.

See website design and development for the full process and handoff. If customers or staff need a portal or internal workflow, that’s custom web app work and gets scoped separately.

Common questions

What Bangor business owners ask.

How much does a website cost in Bangor, Maine?

You get a written scope and a fixed quote before work starts. We work out the pages, design, content, and any integrations first. If the project needs substantial original copywriting, research, or photography, that work is priced in the scope rather than appearing as a surprise later.

Are you actually local to the Bangor area?

I'm in Houlton, which is up I-95 in Aroostook County. Bangor is my closest city, a lot closer than Portland is. I know eastern and northern Maine because I live here. The work itself is remote, so a shop in Brewer or Orono gets the same studio and the same price without anyone driving anywhere.

Can you help my Bangor business get found on Google?

I build the search foundations into the site: page titles, descriptions, clear service pages, a sitemap, and indexing checks. Those give Google something useful to crawl. They don't guarantee a particular ranking or a call from every search.

Do you build sites for trades and service businesses?

Yes. The site needs to explain the work, show real examples, and make it easy to call or send a request from a phone. I plan the pages, design and build them, and agree on the content work in the quote before I start.

Tell me what your business does. I’ll scope what the site needs.

Send me what you do and what’s bugging you about the site you’ve got. If I can help, you get a number. If I can’t, you get that instead.
