When we needed to rebuild our animal rescue’s website, John was fantastic to work with!  He’s a fantastic blend of his own innovation coupled with the ideas we had, and collaborating with him resulted in a top-notch website!  It’s gorgeous to look at, easy to use, and simple to update.

Whenever we have a question or issue, he immediately takes care of everything and ensures everything is constantly running smoothly.  Whether our request is big or small, he is happy to make sure our site is exactly what we need.  John is a pleasure to work with, and we are lucky to have such talent behind us.

It is my pleasure to recommend, without reservation, John Kieken and the website services he provides.  I have been a client with John for 15+ years and have always been more than pleased with the caliber of his work as well as his timeliness in accomplishing the work.

I am somewhat technologically challenged and John has patiently been an ongoing source of support for me and my business around my website and all the supportive tasks included in keeping me current and up to date.  John has taken the initiative to make me aware of potential problems and has gone out of his way to take care of them before they become serious.

I want to thank you for all the improvements you have made to my website, which was pretty messed up before I hired you.  More people need to know what a great service you provide.

It’s also nice that you take the time to talk to your customers on the phone, so that you know their products, services, and what they are trying to convey on their website.  I am very happy with you as my webmaster and I would hate to try to replace you.
