Corridor Web Co.
About Corridor Web Co.

Actually local. Not a satellite office.

Corridor Web Co. is one person, based in Coralville, building websites for the businesses around here — HVAC techs, dentists, roofers, law firms, family shops a couple blocks over. Not a national agency with a marketing pin dropped on a map.

The honest version

Most "local" web agencies aren't. We are.

If you've searched "Iowa City web design" lately, you've seen the playbook: a site claiming sixteen locations across three states, a stock photo of a barn, and a paragraph that accidentally mentions southeast Wisconsin. We're the opposite of that.

One person, one phone number

When you text (319) 328-8022, you're texting the person who designed your site, wrote your code, and pushed it live. There is no junior to escalate to, no offshore contractor, no account manager who has to "loop in the team." If something is broken at 7pm on a Tuesday, the person who can fix it sees the message.

Built here, hosted here, supported from here

I live in Coralville and work across the Corridor. Most of my clients are within a 45-minute drive. If you really want to see my ugly mug, we can meet at your business, a coffee shop, or even grab a bite to eat. Otherwise text and email work just fine, and the site moves faster that way.

Pricing that fits a small business, not a chain

$999 for a real site, not a template stuffed onto a $4,000 "platform." Hosting and domain are passed through at cost — we make money on the build and on Care plans, not by marking up your $20-a-year domain to $300. The numbers on the pricing page are the numbers.

No contracts, no lock-in

Care plans are month-to-month. You own the final code. If you ever leave, we hand over the site and the domain to whoever you want, no exit fee, no "data export charge." The bar for keeping you as a client is doing the work well — not making leaving painful.

Where we work

Coralville is home base. The Corridor is the territory.

If your business is in one of these towns, we are almost certainly the closest web designer to you who actually answers the phone. If you're in a town we didn't list, we probably still drive there.

Rough rule: if you're inside a 45-minute drive of Iowa City, in-person meetings are on the table at no charge. Outside that, we work the same way we work with everyone else — text, email, and screen-share.

What you can hold us to

Four things we will never do.

Promises on a homepage are easy. Promises about what we won't do are harder to walk back. So here they are in writing.

We will not invent fake offices.

Some web shops claim a "location" in every city in three states. Click their footer and the same toll-free number rings the same call center. We have one address: Coralville, Iowa, in the Iowa City metro. That's where we are. That's where we'll always be.

We will not write copy about the wrong state.

If you've shopped around, you've probably seen an "Iowa City" agency talk about helping businesses in Wisconsin in the same paragraph. That's a tell. It means the page was generated, copy-pasted, never read by a human. Every page on this site was written by a person who lives here.

We will not bury the price.

Three packages, three numbers, on the pricing page. No "contact us for a quote" treadmill, no surprise mid-project change orders, no "strategy retainer" tacked on at the end. You see what it costs before you talk to us.

We will not ghost you after launch.

The agencies that build-and-bounce ship a site, send a final invoice, and disappear when the form on the contact page stops sending emails. Care plans exist precisely so the people who built it stay on the hook for keeping it running.
