Testimonials
I don't even know where to start. My website was running but it was running slow, things weren't set up properly, emails weren't going through (I had a client call me to let me know) and the loading time was super slow. That's when I decided to hire Dominic to revamp everything. He listened to what I wanted design-wise, optimized it for mobile which is a large portion of our traffic, made sure the contact form was working properly (tested it) and since we switched, I've gotten about 10 new emails in the last two weeks and already booked a few clients (which more than paid for Dominic's fee).
We have been using Dominic for our website services for a big hospitality company in Los Angeles from SEO to website updates, domain transfers, you name it. He has been incredibly organized, responsive, helpful, and has continuously demonstrated that he genuinely cares about his clients' success. We will continue to use Dom on a retainer, and I highly encourage you to try his services, you will not be disappointed!
Dominic is attentive, listens to what you want for your website, accommodating, hard working, and the positive list goes on. I do not have any complaints - he truly is someone amazing to work with. I'm so happy and thankful for the work that he put into redesigning my website. He did an amazing job and the final product is so beautiful. I definitely recommend him for anyone looking to do a website or a website redesign.
Our e-commerce shoe brand, Evelyn Ford Luxury, has consulted with Dominic Zelek at OC Web Design & Development on updating our growing website for several years now. Dominic works within our budget and limitations, always with an eye to what is needed for growth. We are keenly aware of how his approach saves us money and time. He is also a pleasure to work with.
Dominic is great to work with for all my web needs. He's helped me with my website, SEO and is always teaching me as he helps. He never just say "yes" or "no". He always follows his response with some knowledge and even though I don't grasp it all, he insists in teaching me and I appreciate it all. Thank you Dom! I highly recommend him for all your business needs through the web.
Dominic was amazing to work with. He fixed problems that we would have never known existed and went beyond the call of duty. Would use him again without question.
