Home / About

Sticky Brain Website Design is not some sweat shop operating from a dreary internet cafe’ in downtown Bangladesh or somewhere in India. We are a stable of intelligent coders, headed up by Don Bassler, a USC Entrepreneur Program Graduate, located in Newport Beach, CA. If we answer the phone and say “Hey, Dude!” it’s just because Don was born and raised here in the surfing culture of Newport…not because he was TRAINED to SOUND like he’s fluent in the English language. Were you aware that large companies like Dell and IBM (whose entire Customer Service staff reside in India) train their customer service personnel how to NOT sound like they’re Indian?!

Anyway…Don and his team have been in the SEO and pixel pushing business since 1992. Don will probably be your first point of contact and he’ll quickly comfort you in his assurance that he’ll provide secure, reliable and creative web design solutions for your business. We also provide industry-leading SEO and web hosting solutions to large and medium-sized businesses around the world. Our web development division is involved in the design and coding of interactive websites, business portals, industrial websites and intranet based solutions.

In addition to being web design and development gurus, we are considered to be rock stars in search engine optimization – or SEO as it is commonly called. We understand the intricacies of the Google algorythym and we speak its language. If you are searching for a reliable and skilled website company that can quickly take your fledgling website to the top of Google’s search results, look no further. We know this SEO stuff like nobody’s business and are here to maximize your site’s visibility and profitability. Contact us today to get started.
