The Designsmith created our site about three years ago. As a group of IT professionals, some with large web development staffs, we could have done the work ourselves. But for a number of reasons, we sought a firm that could do the work for us. That was a good decision. The quality has been great as has been the timely response. As with most websites, ours has evolved to meet our changing needs. Paul and his staff have repeatedly enhanced the site and the administrative "backend" to allow us to make much of the information dynamic and within our control. The work includes some pretty sophisticated programming for the "shopping cart" functions we needed. Maybe I shouldn't say this, but their fees are reasonable too.

Huge thanks to Paul Miller at the Designsmith for his dedication and creativity bringing our site from an idea to reality. Paul is extremely talented but it was his patience and openness to input and suggestions that really made the difference for No Fault. Paul was able to deliever our product in a timely and efficient manner! We look forward to working with Paul and the Designsmith team in the future.
Austin McCullough, Regional Sales - Sports Surfacing
Paul was given pieces and parts of information and photographs over several months and he masterfully melded it all into the website that we had envisioned. I appreciated his patience, suggestions, light humor and guidance throughout the entire process. He mastered the project flow wonderfully, hit all of the deadlines and gave soft reminders of what would or should be addressed for upcoming milestones. Staying on time and on budget were very important factors. A pleasure to work with and superbly knowledgeable in his field, I would recommend Paul for your marketing, website and other IT projects.

To you folks that have avoided developing a web page for varioius reasons (lack of knowledge, expense, concearns regarding "what do I need", and other awkward questions), Mr. Paul Miller of The Designsmith will alleviate all trepidations. Lack of comfort with other web developers delayed us in launching Premier Constructors website for two years. However, after our initial meeting, Paul was prepared inside three weeks to launch our site. Don't you lose multiple years deciding!! Paul's ability to design, create, recommend, alter, and remain flexible with your ideas - and his quick response time - made this adventure painless.
Joe O'Banion, President - Premier Constructors, Inc.
When it came time for a new website, I came to Paul with the goal of creating a website that would reflect the experience of visiting our gallery in person. The end result is even better than I anticipated. Equally as important, Paul was a pleasure to work with in the design phase and really took the time to understand our business and the message we wanted to send. The end result is a website that we are proud to have our name on. Thanks Paul!
George Clark, President - Taylor Clark Gallery
Paul Miller was easy to work with because he listened to our needs and respected our ideas. His created an ideal website for my business. It is exactly what I wanted and Paul made it come to life. Our business has increased and our customers say that it was easy to gather the information from our site. I will continue to work with Paul Miller. I love how he is patient and continues to perfect and tweak the website when needed. I am extremely pleased with the professionalism and high level of service.

As a start up company in 2001, PetroSafe contacted The Designsmith to help us with the original design of our website. Not knowing where to start, Paul shared some great ideas with us, and after only a few days ... we were up and running. Paul was extremely easy to work with and he managed to keep our startup costs within our budget. After we were in business for few years, we again contacted the Designsmith to help with the design of our on-line student registration and credit card payment system. Once again ... Paul came through for us with an excellent system that will even allow us to enter and update our upcoming training events with an easy to use administration page that is linked to our website. We receive a lot of positive comments on our website design and we strongly recommend that you let the experts at The Designsmith design you website.
Carl Anderson, CFPS, President - PetroSafe Technologies
Paul Miller designed the first website for my company. Over the years, we lost touch and my company moved to another vendor. However, once when it was time to revamp our site, I came right back to where I was most satisfied. Paul has great insight on web design, customer and quality of service is great, and his prices cannot be beat for what is received in return. He is straight forward with his suggestions and/or recommendations, and definitely knows his stuff. I love working with him....he makes this part of my job much easier.
Shawana Rucker, IT Director - SSCBR
I had lost focus on the logo over time and had become discouraged and resorted to a more simple logo design and was about a day or 2 away from implementing it into our company until I discovered Paul & The Designsmith. Paul asked me to send him what I imagined for our more intricate version of the logo and he came back with a great price and said his team could get it done. A few days later, he sent some rough pencil drafts of different versions, we chose one and through a couple of minor changes arrived at an incredible logo that exceeded our expectations. Paul, you were great to work with, very patient and precise in nailing our concept of our logo. The detail is amazing and I can't say enough how happy we are.
Scott Lang, Owner - Advanced Hurricane Solutions
The Designsmith handled a comprehensive redesign of our firm's site and we are extremely pleased with how it turned out. Paul demonstrated a clear understanding of our needs, coming up with a design that is eye-catching and unique, but still appropriate for a law firm. He was easy to work with and responsive, listening to our feedback but still providing us with his own take. We recommend him without reservation.
Brian Juban, Partner - Keegan DeNicola
We consider ourselves very lucky to have hired Designsmith for our web project. Paul's work is excellent, fast and affordable. I am always impressed by the quick response time and the high quality work. We never approach a web or design project without thinking of Paul. Every project is done right, done quickly and on budget. What else is there?
David Schenck, Information Technology Director - District Attorney's Office, Baton Rouge Louisiana
Paul Miller, The Designsmith, is an outstanding web site designer who has built two excellent sites that have been very good for my business. Lapolitics.com, launched in 2002, has stood the test of time by continuing to look and work very well. Howtogetelected.com, in 2011, achieves the very professional look that befits the national audience it aims to attract.. Paul works quickly to offer and modify design ideas, collaborating with me at every step. He has a strong sense not only of what looks good but what sells.
John Maginnis, Publisher - LaPolitics Weekly / How to Get Elected
Paul Miller is very responsive, very organized, and when you have a concern regarding the web page you get him and not any intermediary. We have looked to other vendors for comparable services and Paul has always been the one to rise to the surface. His pricing is extremely competitive and in this area, he has always come out on top as the most cost effective (for web page design, maintenance, and web page hosting costs) of any vendor we have interviewed. The Baton Rouge Clinic's relationship with him has gone back many years and I have personally worked with him for over 4 years now.
Harold D. Brandt, MD, FACP, Medical Director - The Baton Rouge Clinic, AMC
In today's world a website is such an important marketing tool for a company. I highly recommend The Designsmith to anyone who needs a professional, top quality website. Paul is a pleasure to work with and very knowledgeable. He offers creative ideas to ensure that your site is the most effective it can be.
Carter Hill, Owner - Carter Hill Construction
We needed to redesign our website and had a very difficult time dealing with our previous web designer. After our first meeting with Paul, we knew he was the perfect guy for us! He was very easy to work with and he made the whole process a much more enjoyable experience! We love the design he came up with and look forward to working with him again on more projects! Thanks Paul!
Bobbie & Danny Baker, Owner - Delta Bravo Properties, LLC
Paul designed my website and logo and created beautiful business cards as well. Throughout the design process, Paul was readily available to answer questions and make suggestions. He also suggested my website name which is perfect for a visual artist working in graphite and drawing (excuse the pun) inspiration from my garden. Thanks to Paul's experience and expertise my website is easy for me to administer and for patrons to navigate. In addition to designing the site, he also gives me ideas for improving my Google ranking. I highly recommend The Designsmith. Throughout the process, Paul was very patient and professional while continually amazing me with the wealth of knowledge he brings to the process.
Marge Campane, Visual Artist/Owner - Graphite Garden
The Designsmith created exactly what we wanted for our website. It is now polished and projects the image we want our company to convey. The designer that assisted us was extremely patient with our requests, contacted us with answers, and revisions promptly, and most of all, created an excellent design... all this within our budget. We highly recommend anyone interested in a design for their site to contact The Designsmith.
John K. Davis, Treasurer - Louisiana Association of the Deaf, Inc.
I am very happy with the website created by the Designsmith for my new business, Red Stick Refinement. I have received so many compliments, I am beyond pleased! Paul's work is unique and eye-catching, but at the same time professional and organized. I highly recommend his work!
April Setliff, Owner - Red Stick Refinement
The Designsmith has proven to be one of our most valued resources and sales tools at No Fault Sport Group. Paul continues to impress me with timely reponses to our many requests and his overall knowledge of the hidden "nuances" of the internet. In the ever changing world of the internet, it is comforting knowing that the Designsmith is a part of our team!
David Brantley, Owner / President - No Fault Sport Group, LLC
We explored different web designers before choosing The Designsmith. We were impressed with his credentials and what he offered. It was a pleasure working with Paul Miller as he designed our company website. As a technical/ website design neophyte, he patiently explained every step of the design process to us.
