VSHoward LLC.

Operating out of Norwalk, Connecticut, Vernon S. Howard runs a small web design and development practice serving direct clients and subcontracting engagements alike, including businesses such as StraiTek, LLC and Portage Point Partners on the direct side, and firms like United Envelope and G.I. Johns as a subcontracted WordPress developer. The practice has been active since 1995 and is structured as a solo/small-team operation, positioning itself as an alternative to larger agencies for businesses seeking custom digital builds without added overhead. Services center on custom website design and development across WordPress, Shopify, and HubSpot CMS platforms, including custom themes, modules, and integrations. Technical SEO and on-page optimization are built into the development process, covering site speed, structure, and search performance rather than being offered as a standalone campaign. Additional work includes responsive design, ongoing WordPress maintenance and security updates, and support for legacy or non-CMS sites (static HTML, PHP), including migrations to modern platforms. Projects follow a defined six-stage process: discovery and planning, wireframing and content strategy, visual design and mockups, development with clean and scalable code, cross-device testing and QA, and launch with post-launch support such as training and future enhancements.
