OBdesign.
OBdesign is my one-person web development business. Every site below is a real business paying real money for work they rely on: custom-coded Next.js or Astro builds with a git-based CMS, so every client edits their own content without touching code.
The numbers I actually track: more than 25 sites deployed, 12 of them live client sites, $10,000+ collected, roughly 7% of first cold emails converting to paying projects (found by a pipeline I wrote), and a fastest brief-to-live rebuild of six days. Beyond the code, I handle domains, DNS cutovers with zero email downtime, performance budgets, SEO, and the phone call when something breaks.
