A few examples. Unlimited directions.

Explore three original concepts I built to show different website experiences. They illustrate my work, not the limits of the businesses I can design for.

Your brand comes first / 711 Digital Studio

Your business. Your vision. Built around you.

No two businesses are the same. Your website shouldn't be either. I build custom designs around your services, customers, and goals—whether you run a salon, automotive shop, landscaping company, boutique, professional practice, restaurant, construction company, or something entirely different.

The three websites below are interactive, fictional portfolio demonstrations—not fixed templates or the only industries I serve. Real ordering, payments, booking, or customer inquiries are connected and tested separately for client projects.

All three portfolio businesses are fictional concepts. Ordering, inventory, and inquiry workflows are browser-based demonstrations, not live business systems. Real client launches use connected platforms and secure integrations.

02 / A useful starting point

What should your website actually do?

Choose the type of business closest to yours—or select “My business is different.” The right website starts with your customers and your goals, not a one-size-fits-all template.

Recommended starting setup

Help shoppers choose and order without sending a DM.

Make products, sizes, prices, and next steps easy to find. If you need real payments and order management, we'll connect a suitable platform.

  • Clear products, images, sizes, and availability
  • Easy shopping and cart flow
  • Real checkout and order platform for launch

03 / A clear process

From a conversation to a website you can use.

Working with me should feel straightforward. I explain the decisions, show the design, and help you understand what you'll need to operate it.

01 / CLARIFY

We define the goal.

What's the business? What should visitors do? What do you already use for orders, scheduling, or inquiries?

02 / BUILD

You see the design.

We shape the pages, brand, and features around the customer's journey—not around unnecessary add-ons.

03 / LAUNCH

We make it real.

Connect the business-owned domain and tools, test on devices, and clarify what maintenance and support look like.

04 / The person behind it

A personal studio. Practical ideas.

I'm Ricardo Ballesteros. I'm studying network administration and have experience building my own Shopify clothing store. I know how much there is to figure out when you're trying to get a business online.

My approach is to show you what's possible, explain how the tools actually work, and build around the needs of the business—not make promises a website can't guarantee.

05 / Know before you buy

Clear answers beat a sales pitch.

You should understand what a website can—and can't—do before spending money on it.

Do I need a website if I already have Facebook?

Facebook is useful for posting and connecting with people. A website gives visitors an organized place to see products, services, menus, finished projects, and the next action. The two can work together.

Will a website automatically bring in customers?

No. A good site can reduce confusion and make it easier to inquire or order, but traffic, your reputation, your offer, and your follow-through still matter. No responsible designer should promise guaranteed sales.

How do online orders really reach the business?

The sample dashboards are demonstrations. Real customer orders require connected e-commerce/POS software, notifications, payments, and staff access. We'll choose tools that fit the way you already operate.

What costs money after launch?

A custom domain usually costs money. Online stores, payment processors, scheduling tools, or hosted forms may charge fees. Basic hosting can sometimes use free tiers. We'll make recurring costs clear before you commit.

Who should own the domain and customer data?

You should. For client projects, I recommend the business owns its domain, payment account, and customer data, with access and responsibilities documented in writing.

How do you decide what a custom website costs?

Every business has different needs. I start with your goals, pages, content, and any booking, ordering, or payment integrations. After we discuss the scope, I can provide an individual quote with what is included. There is no obligation to proceed.

What happens after I send an inquiry?

Your information is forwarded through Formspree to my business inbox so I can follow up with questions and discuss your project. A form submission starts a conversation; it does not place an order or commit you to any service. See the privacy notice for details.
