iXoraBrown Web Design is a Collaboration
between two webmasters who believe they can provide quality web sites for very reasonable prices. They specialize in building small sites for small enterprises: a local family business, a home business or hobby, a local club or church, a personal site for some individual purpose.
If you are a large corporation, a state or national organization,
or want a large web site with lots of flash and trash, we are not for you.
iXora Web Design began as a private one-client endeavor back in October, 2002 and began accepting additional projects in June, 2008. An informal association with webmaster Fred Brown led to an official merger in July, 2011. The company is dual-based in Sarasota, Florida, and Cabot, Vermont, where our financial advisors and webmasters reside. Other personel live and work in Pittsburgh, Chicago, and Philadephia. All are graduates of top flight universities including Cornell University, The University of Vermont, and the University of Pittsburgh. All have experience in their fields and enjoy what they do.
