The Person Behind the Code
I'm Kevin McCartney—a web designer in Bluffton, SC who believes your website should actually work for your business, not just look pretty.
Why I Started Forged Digital Design
Kevin McCartney
Founder & Lead Developer
I got tired of watching small businesses get burned.
Too many business owners come to me after spending thousands on a website that just sits there—no leads, no calls, no results. They were sold on fancy designs but never told the truth: a pretty website means nothing if it doesn't bring in customers.
That's why I started Forged Digital Design. I wanted to build websites that actually do something—sites that rank on Google, convert visitors, and give you a real return on your investment.
Before getting into web design, I served in the United States Marine Corps. That experience taught me discipline, attention to detail, and how to get things done right the first time. I bring that same mindset to every project.
Based here in Bluffton, SC, I work with small businesses locally and nationwide. Whether you need WordPress, e-commerce, or a fully custom-coded solution—I build what fits your business best.
What I'm Best At
- Custom Websites – From WordPress to fully hand-coded solutions built for your specific needs
- Sites That Rank – SEO-friendly development so Google can actually find you
- Mobile-First Design – Looks great and works flawlessly on every device
- Ongoing Support – I don't disappear after launch; I'm here when you need me
How I Work
Your Goals Come First
I don't start with what I think looks cool. I start with what your business actually needs to grow. Technology serves you—not the other way around.
No Surprises
You'll always know where your project stands, what it costs, and what's coming next. I hate surprise fees as much as you do.
Built to Last
I don't just launch and leave. I build sites that are easy to maintain, and I'm here for ongoing support whenever you need it.
Quick to Respond
I don't leave you hanging. Questions get answers fast—usually the same day.
