The web team you wish you'd hired years ago.

We're a Central Florida web design studio that designs, builds, hosts, and grows websites as a long-term partnership — not a one-off build and a goodbye. Twenty-four years of doing it the right way.

// The storyBuilt on a simple frustration.

ProDesigning started in 2002, in Salt Lake City, out of a frustration that's still everywhere today: businesses paid good money for a website, then got left on their own the moment it launched. A new vendor for hosting. Another for edits. A freelancer who vanished. A site that slowly broke.

So we built the opposite — a studio that designs it, builds it, hosts it, and keeps growing it, all under one roof and one monthly invoice. In 2019 we moved to Orlando and put down roots across Central Florida, and the model only got sharper.

Twenty-four years and 100+ websites later, the belief hasn't changed: a website is never "done." It's a living part of your business — and it deserves a partner who treats it that way.

// Meet the founder

Hi, I'm Derl.

Founder & lead designer · ProDesigning Creative

I've spent 24+ years designing and building websites — long enough to watch every trend come and go, and to learn what actually moves the needle for a small business. I started ProDesigning in 2002 in Salt Lake City, moved the studio to Orlando in 2019, and along the way built an entire SaaS platform, ProjEvo, from the ground up.

When you partner with us, you work directly with the person who designs and builds your site — not a rotating account manager or a 72-hour ticket queue. I take it personally, because your website is part of your livelihood.
