Maite Dalila Rodriguez – Web Developer

Ex-Disney ✦ The secret to standing out isn’t marketing. It’s your brand & website. Most skip it. I design it. ✦ Squarespace ✦ 12+ years

Overview

I’ve spent 12+ years designing for companies like Disney and Nike, where I learned : people don’t fall in love with a product, they fall in love with the story it tells.

Now, I help authors:

✦ Branding | So they’re ready before the first book launches.

✦ Website Design |Professional website that is agent-ready, launch-ready, and built to sell.

TESTIMONIALS

Patricia Wilson ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“Everyone—from my agent to my publisher—was impressed by my new website. She instinctively knew how to promote my writing in ways I hadn’t imagined.”

Lyssa Reese ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“Maite’s collaboration is responsive and considerate. Her process is insightful, inspiring, and empowering. The website we built together reflects the emotional spirit of my work, and I’m grateful for both the experience and the result she provided.”

Chera DeHoff ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“Highly recommend her to anyone looking for clarity and creativity in their online presence.

Paulette Brooks ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

While Maite has the credentials and previous experience as a brand strategist for huge corporations, she was so down to earth in dealing with a debut novelist who is just launching her book out into a very competitive marketplace.
