Why I started Clear Springs
Hi, I'm Matt, the founder, designer, and developer behind Clear Springs Web Design. I started this business from home while raising a family. I taught myself how to code websites by hand and began reaching out to small businesses in my community.
What I quickly saw was that many business owners either couldn't afford the big agency price tag or had already been burned by overpriced, outdated designs. A lot of what was being sold to them didn't actually help their business. It just looked impressive in a proposal.
That is why I built Clear Springs on a different model: $0 down and $175/month. It is affordable, sustainable, and built on real relationships. When you work with me, you get the person who builds the site, answers the email, and pushes the fix.

How I work
Different from day one.
No templates. Hand-coded.
Every site is written from scratch. No page builders, no themes, no borrowed code. That means faster load times, cleaner markup, and a site that looks exactly like your business, not a modified version of someone else's.
$0 down, $175/month
Good web design should not require a four-figure upfront payment. The monthly plan covers design, development, hosting, and unlimited edits. You pay as you go, and I stay invested in keeping it good.
Direct line to the builder
There's no account manager between you and the person doing the work. When you have a question or need a change, you reach me directly. No ticket queues, no hold music, no escalation chains.
Built for East Tennessee
I'm local. I know the market, the customers, and the kinds of businesses that need a plain, working website more than they need a flashy one. I keep things practical because that's what actually helps.
