Reviews of Daveworks Web Development (Website Designer)

Christina Thorpe

Having worked with Dave ~10 years ago, I reached out to him when it was time to set up a new Wordpress/Memberpress site for a group I am in. No surprise ... he was as helpful, knowledgeable and lovely to work with in 2018 as he was previously. Thank you, Dave.

Marusia Williams

We had called Dave a few days ago due to our current website issues we had and he was so kind to come out and give us some training we most desperately needed. He was very knowledgeable and patient with us and we are back up and going. He saved us! Thanks Dave and we will always use your services when we can. Thanks again, Marusia and Glen.

Mary Hall, The Recessionista

Dave is very knowledge about SEO, Website Optimization and overall best practices to make Google see every benefit of your web business. Very glad to have been recommended to Dave. I hope to talk to him on an ongoing basis. Everyone should talk to an SEO expert like Dave before doing their next site redesign or overhaul.

Kelly

Dave is great to work with. Very helpful and nice. Thanks

Tom Spesick

After many years of doing our website in-house, we wanted a fresh approach with a more modern look and hired Daveworks. We are very happy with the results and Dave has been quick to answer any questions we have. After the launch of the new website Dave provided an informative training session and overview of Wordpress. We would definitely recommend Daveworks!

Steven Achstein

Daveworks saved the day once again. Our company was having some email issues and Dave had the issue corrected in a matter of hours. I later found out he corrected this issue while on the road for a family vacation. Outstanding service! I would highly recommend Daveworks to anyone.

Tiffany T

Dave is so awesome to work with. He fixed our store that was not working for a couple years and now it is working and we are getting paid. Dave did a great job with following up with me and giving me updates and finishing this project in a decent amount of time. Thank you again Dave!

Michelle Fadelli

As a very small agency, we needed a new website that we could update ourselves-- with very little technical knowledge. Daveworks created an excellent site for us on Wordpress, combining our suggestions for content with their suggestions for technical options. We are especially thrilled with the "blog" function which not only displays our posts under the Blog tab and the What's New section of our homepage, but also posts directly to Facebook and Twitter-- this is an enormous time savings for us with our social media efforts! Daveworks has also been very responsive-- and patient--with us as we learned how to use Wordpress, providing ongoing technical assistance as well as a few "disaster recovery" saves (like when we accidentally deleted an entire page). We look forward to a continued partnership with Daveworks and offer our full recommendation. -- Michelle at First 5 Marin

Customer Support

Thank you Dave for your work done. It really went much easier than I thought.I know this is because your a pro. When I called with questions your answers were very clear and in "real talk" not hard to follow or figure out or understand. I'm happy to recommend you to anyone looking for web design

JEFF AIELLO

WOW, what a great experience!!! Dave has been so helpfull, absolute grasp of everything I needed to know, so friendly, patient and knowlegable! I would absolutely recommend his services.

Karen Carter

When our web designer suddenly retired, we had to find someone in a pinch. Tried several different web people and finally found Dave. He's been amazing! Making the changes we need, offering information on how we can better our organic search results, and update our site. He's a wealth of information and skill! We are so lucky to have found him!

Kerry Blessing

Dave Naves, teacher, web expert, geek and the single best web guy on the planet! I met Dave years ago when I was a Marketing Director tasked with launching a National E-commerce site, but knowing NOTHING about the web business. The only resource I was given was Dave Naves....as it turns out, that was all I needed! We met all of our goals and launched on time and I learned a ton! Now to today. Dave has continued to be my only required resource for all things web. He has helped me design two very successful web sites for my Integration business and as that business develops he continues to teach me. SEO, logical design, best practices all are up for discussion. He has the knack of teaching and not preaching. He is accessible, friendly and smart. What a dream business associate and friend! Thanks Dave!!

April Hidalgo

Finding the right individual or company to build a website can be scary and expensive. I am so glad I found Daveworks. They designed our website and continue to help us optimize it. I highly recommend Daveworks web development.

Yvette Corona

Dave was very helpful during the process of creating our new web page. He was always on top of getting questions answered when we ran into them. And although our web page has been complete he is still available to help us.

Mick Trainor

From the beginning, Dave generously offered to help me harness the power of social media while pursuing a career change. He was great from the start! He clearly and concisely explained to me how my current approach was severely limiting to my changes for success. He did this in a way that was positive and clearly delineated all the steps needed to revamp my efforts and multiply my chances. He very clearly follows and understands all the potential of online networking and how best to position oneself in the multi-channel online networking arena.

robert townsend

Dave Naves at Daveworks has created our web presence and educated us as to what we should do to keep it current. More important to us that the web development however, is the prompt service and follow-up we receive when things need to be tweaked or something goes awry that we cannot resolve. I am of the previous generation and perhaps require more hand holding than the normal person... when this occurs Dave is there and somehow finds the time to address our issues like we were his only client. He can just figure stuff out and thoroughly understands the integral workings of the net and everything related. He communicates well and earnestly works to help those he serves to understand the issues and resolve them. He is top notch and fair! If you are having issues or just need someone you can trust to help you interface with the world around you... he is the man. I highly recommend him.

Bob Johannsen

Dave has been a valuable asset to the growth and effectiveness of our Business. Several years ago we merged with another similar business. Dave was the web designer for the other company. He quickly merged our business activities and created a structure and process that generated expanding traffic and interest. He is very attentive to our goals and is very willing to share his knowledge to make our business grow. Great resource for information that is spot-on! Trust this guy - he knows what he is doing!! Follow-up 8/22/19: Dave continues to be an excellent resource during the closing of our business and the transfer of our domain names and website hosting issues. Thank you for your continued support and knowledge sharing.

Curt G

Dave, thanks for your fantastic help with our website! I am thankful to have the continued help. -Marlo (foothill fundraising)

Marcy Wacker

David was a guest speaker in my Professional Practices for Creatives course at Sierra College this semester. The students really enjoyed his presentation. Many of them were confused and intimidated by the prospect of online marketing, content marketing and social media. In 80 minutes he broke down the topics into accessible bites explaining each concept and providing actionable steps for them to incorporate into their marketing plans. He was a really valuable addition to their semester. Can't wait to have him back!

Elise Weitsen

I can’t even begin to express how happy I am with my website. Dave & his team at Daveworks have truly outdone themselves. I feel like they listened to me & got a true read on the feel of my business & represented it beautifully through the website they created. Communication was super easy & thorough. On top of that, there is a training session where I learned how to make easy changes on my own. Many companies do not offer this feature, making you beholden to the web designer. Not Daveworks! If you want a professional website that represents your business, I couldn’t recommend them enough!

Maki HVAC

Dave did a great job re-designing our website. The customer service is one of his best features. He taught us how to have informative blogs and perform our own SEO instead of outsourcing thousands of dollars. He gave our website a fresh look and trained us how to manage it ourselves. Thanks Dave!

Michele Colombo

My experience with Dave was exceptional, I sent him a message through Facebook and he got back to me right away. We talked over the phone and went over all things that I was looking to do with my website, as well as my social media sites. His information was so valuable and easy to follow. I have worked with web developers before and always felt more overwhelmed at what I needed to do when I got off the phone. This was not the case with Dave, he went through very clearly what I needed to do and what will work and what doesn't work. Dave is the real deal if you need a website or information about how to grow business through social media, Dave is who you want to talk with! Thank you Dave!!!!

Mark Frederick

Dave Naves took our website from obscurity to relevance. He has been very knowledgeable and helpful. We are going to be using him in the future. Now he has taken our email accounts to a whole new level of security, flexibility, usefulness and professionalism. I would recommend Daveworks to anyone wanting to join the 21st Century in stride.

Robert Lazor

Dave is wonderful to work with. He provides quality work and is extremely helpful when it comes to teaching one how to use/edit their new webiste.

Topo Padilla

We have been doing business with Dave for many years; aside from knowing him for over 30 years, I will proudly say that Dave Naves from Daveworks does an amazing job with our visibility on social media and our webpage.

stan batiste

Dave always comes through! We have worked with Dave for over 6 years now and he does an outstanding job. Where you will find his company does best is with your urgent needs - if your site has problems he responses right away and keeps your business running. So don't panic - just call Dave!

Bliss Studio Beauty Lounge

Dave at Daveworks has helped me take my business social media and website to a whole new level. I am pretty fluent in social media and ok at webdesign, but he helped me understand where to focus my energy, and how avoid mistakes. He takes the success of my marketing seriously, and is fully committed to seeing my success. It is so nice to have him on my side.

Gerry LaBudde

Dave's been great. Nice initial web page design and great support since start up! Gerry LaBudde Weimar Water

Papa Tex

Wow! Great experience with Dave! His expertise is impeccable. Everything done on time in a professional manner with great communication all the way along. Dave developed a great website and actually listened to my input. I will admit that I am a picky person but Dave would not quit until I was completely satisfied. Very patient and persistent in explaining everything to my satisfaction. So glad I chose Daveworks to develop my site.

Travis Crowley

I just called Daveworks today and found them to be insightful and professional. He seemed eager to help me out instead of getting me off the phone and sending me flyers via email like most of the other companies i have contacted the last couple days. Long story short I would recommend Daveworks to any friend or family member and llook forward to doing more business with them in the future.

Robert Finlayson

Dave is a true professional and a pleasure to work with. He always goes above and beyond in everything he does. I worked with him on the redesign of a website for an important client, and he delivered an amazing site. I can offer the highest recommendation for his work and will definitely use his services again.

denny seiwell

Dave Naves of Daveworks has been handling my tech needs for many years and my business depends on him. He has become more than a colleague. Dave has always found a solution for whatever problem cropped up and did it quickly. We have a passion in common for what we do. That Is why I recommend Dave Naves to my friends who might be in need of his expertise and services

Dan Nelson

Very speedy response to a technical oversight caused by ME. Thank you Dave for getting us up and going again so quickly. You are awesome.

JJ Gutierrez

I can't say enough about Dave's service for the "just getting started" small business. He was so kind, and helpful and though my needs were small, he still treated me like a million dollar customer. I highly recommend Dave!

XDCycle

As good as web design and SEO can get. Dave knows his stuff, he eats, drinks, and breathes website and SEO material. I wouldn't have succeeded in my online business without his work and attention to detail. He has been there for follow up and minor changes and updates when needed. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone.

Chavi Duke

Consulted with Dave this morning and he was very helpful and professional. He is very experienced and pointed me in the right direction to get my website the way we needed it.

Jette Shears

I have worked with Dave Naves since 2009 and there is no one I trust more with my companies' websites than Daveworks Web Development. Dave knows his stuff and the websites he builds are amazing because they WORK and produce results. On top of that, Dave is a really nice guy and huge proponent of small business owners. Every penny I have spent on Daveworks' services has been worth it. I simply cannot say enough good things about this company.

Samantha Nanny

Dave Works is an amazing company, I highly recommend them to anyone in need of web services and if could give them 10 stars, they deserve it.

Dan Monahan

After wasting many thousands of dollars on SEO and website management (failure of management was more like it), I finally found Dave. For once I had an expert who was most interested in getting me on the right track rather than being a parasite on my business. I recommend Dave without reservation.

Tim Creech

Dave and Daveworks has helped me and my business beyond my expectations! Truly a pros pro and good guy. Thanks for all your help and knowlege

Giovanni Angello

Daveworks is the entity that probably helped my business stay alive on the web more than any company. I would be lost without them. If I have an emergency, they respond very aggressively. The rates are extremely reasonable as well. Usually I am so grateful, and I get the small bill, I want to pay more!!

Mini Mania

We needed help with some basic SEO techniques and David constructed a great presentation for us. Team went away with great enthusiasm and tactics to immediately improve our SEO. Thanks! Would recommend Dave to anyone who asked.

Bob Rogers

We were very fortunate to come across Daveworks Web Development when we needed our website built and he is local for us! He's made numerous house calls for us when we need it. Our unique situation makes it difficult to go out and meet him sometimes. He explains things clearly and is the most knowledgeable web developer I've ever worked with. A true professional who I highly recommend.

Jennifer Henry

Dave has been just great to work with and so very helpful and knowledgeable. He gives you a feeling that he truly cares about what your needs are.

Carissa Chapman

Daveworks is the best!!! He is Super Responsive and Very Knowledgeable!!! He explains things in a great manner and takes care of it immediately! His service is by far the best that I have ever had!!!

Alexandra Nolivo

I am blown away at what Dave brings to the table. He is incredibly knowledgable, and is a true expert in his field. He knows all things web. I downloaded his Ebook from his website and I am blown away by all the value he provides. I will definitely be contacting him again soon! Dave, thanks again!

Linda Boyko

Amazing service, years ago Dave did a lot of work for my 2 business websites, I ventured away from Dave but years later when websites and emails crashed and no one could fix them; I called Dave. He actually remembered how it was all set up years before and was able to get my business back up and running in a matter of hours. You can't go wrong with Dave.

Greg Bulanti

I have worked with Dave Naves for the past three years as Chair of the Education Committee at the Nevada County Association of Realtors. He has presented several seminars to our members and has been a major supporter of our annual NCAOR Technology Fair. His knowledge and expertise in social network development, marketing, web site development, blogging and more is absolutely amazing. In the past few months I engaged Dave to create a new website for my Real Estate business. We had the initial discussion of look, feel and operation of the site then set some marketing goals I wanted to achieve. From start to finish, Dave kept me posted on the development process. We did beta testing last month and after some great one-on-one training, we launched the site. I am thrilled with the finished product and Dave's work has exceeded my expectations. Dave is thoughtful and able to explain technical issues in common language. He is a true professional and I give him my highest recommendation to anyone looking for web development or web marketing programs. Dave will exceed your expectations as he did for me. He is also a great guy and very easy to work with.

Prince Singh

I have known Dave professionally since 2012. I am an IT guy myself, I do a lot of web designing and SEO work myself, and I do it very successfully for my own business. Every now and then, I have found myself stuck - stuck with a problem and no solution. And my personality is, I would spend hours, days, looking for a solution. And a few times, when I could not find any, I have contacted Dave, seeking his help, and within a matter of few minutes, he has helped me making those problems go away, and learn something new!! A great man, a great friend, and a great dad (I see his posts on FB all the time). Highly recommended!! I admire his knowledge, and his integrity. Thanks for all that you have done for me Dave.

Patrick Grogan

Dave gave me some awesome advice on WP migrating and hosting.

George Hall

I first began working with Daveworks in December. From the outset the company demonstrated skill, structure and understanding of my company's needs. Recommendations were made with a focus on developing a WordPress based website to replace our old and outdated one. Dave's team was spot on with their concepts and implementation. Our team had to be trained by Dave's folks on how to maintain and build on the website going forward. This was accomplished in a timely fashion with much new to learn. Everyone who has viewed the new website says it looks very professional and accomplishes our goal of being able to share more of what we do with the public than we could have ever imagined before we worked with the folks at Daveworks. Thank you.

Jennifer McGarry

I believe that the word "Trust" is extremely important when picking a Web developer. Dave Naves is experienced, knowledgeable, helpful and creative in his approach to web designing. I also feel complete trust in his judgement and abilities. I can't say enough about Dave, his personal touch and patience are why I would always do business with him. Remember the word "Trust" that is truly his middle name. Thank you- You are the best!

Brian O'Looney

Dave at Daveworks did a great job helping us clean up our web site. We look forward to working with him in the future.

Jason Haldeman

Daveworks is very unique. I don't think anyone else is more passionate about website development, SEO, and social media than the owner, Dave Naves. He explains things in granular detail, has deep knowledge of the subject matter, and is always willing to help. Hiring Daveworks is a no-brainer.

Kerwin Schetter

Daveworks web design and development created an exceptional layout and user friendly website for my taxidermy business. While other web design organizations charge you a maintenance fee and require their services to make changes with text, pictures, add pages etc… for a fee, Dave on the other hand chooses to educate the user on the editing fundamentals by empowering you to manage and maintain your website and not accruing additional fees. Dave is extremely knowledgeable and very professional with a commitment to customer satisfaction that is second to none. I highly recommend Daveworks Web Development for anyone looking to redesign an existing website or create a new one. I could not be more ecstatic with Dave’s ability to produce a great product and willingness to go the extra mile to ensure your complete satisfaction.

Charity Young

Dave is truly informative, supportive, honest and straightforward. I appreciate his advice and candor. I look forward to working with him in the future and would recommend him to anyone looking for solid advice for their company. Many thanks, Dave!

Linette Quaranta

The thought of managing my business social media and web presence made me hyperventilate; then I met Dave. His philosophy for genuine social media marketing - genius! I no longer fret over what to say or how to say it. I am myself. Though I am still working on implementing the mounds of information Dave shared, I know that I will meet my social media and web goals for this year. Thanks Dave!!

Uzoma Okoro

Dave is one of the most knowledgable and helpful web developers I have ever met. Thank you for being not only helpful in setting up our Eco-Alpha website, but being a great teacher in navigating us through the online marketing minefield.

Maggie Marfia

Daveworks has been handling my website now for about 12 years. I would be lost without him. I recently had him redo my website and I still got the same consistent personal attention he promised from the beginning. Not only did he do an amazing job with the web page but taught me how to utilize it better. His professionalism and knowledge always amazes me. If you want a great web site, results and real answers I definitely recommend Daveworks.

Traci Buckley

Had an amazing call with Dave today. I was referred by a friend and I am interested in getting his services, but I had a immediate need for information. He was so gracious and super cool, knowledgeable and helpful. He actually gave me some great free advice- I am planning on meeting with him and using his full services for the rest of my needs. I don't know about you but rarely do you actually get a live person who answers the phone- let alone the owner and someone who absolutely knows there stuff. I believe the world is full of truly are great people and today I met one. Dave obviously cares about customer service, and just doing the right thing. Good Karma- Thanks DAVE I would highly recomend Dave for any and all your Web needs. Can't wait to move forward and work with the best- DAVEWORKS ROCKS!!

Dawnie Andrak

I have been using Daveworks Web Development for over 3 years and their customer service is 5 star all the way. When I need a quick "fix" or change to my website, Dave is always able, willing and quickly responds to my request. I would highly recommend their services to anyone who would ask for my opinion!

Matt Newcomer

It is rare that you have an opportunity to know someone over four decades, but what is even more rare is when you have had the opportunity to work and partner on projects with that same person throughout those years. I have been fortunate to know and work with Dave Naves of Daveworks Web Development since 1984. Most recently, Dave has provided thought leadership on two recent ventures of mine. He is both patient and thorough. He is excellent at coaching and providing tools that allow me to engage and transact with customers. His deep knowledge of web-based businesses and proven practices are incredibly helpful to my consulting success. Dave has also provided training and best practice leadership to my colleagues at a medical-based startup. His knowledge allowed us to attract and retain customers through e-business transactions. Since day one, Dave has been passionate and innovative leveraging technology to deliver an outstanding customer experience. If you are in need of a patient, knowledgeable and balanced thought leader – Dave is your guy. What you hear on the radio each week is as authentic as it gets in person. Thank you Dave for your strategic leadership and friendship. – Matt Newcomer, The Matteus Group

Linda States

I’m so thankful I found Dave. He expertly re-created my website, previously hosted by an expensive marketing firm. Gone are the big monthly fees I used to pay, but the website Dave created is just as beautiful and functional as ever. Best of all, it now ranks near the top of organic searches, unlike with the pricey firm. Who knew I could pay less and get much more! Working with Dave was a pleasure. He is super knowledgeable, patient and responsive. I’m a very happy client.

Scott Hulsey

Dave at Daveworks did a redesign to our existing website that now has an updated layout and a user-friendly format. Dave was very knowledgeable, professional and helped us easily navigate a process we were unfamiliar with. If you are looking to update your website, or looking to have one built, I would highly recommend Daveworks. I could not be more pleased with Dave’s ability to create such a great product and look forward to working with him on future projects for our company.

Pat Harris

Thanks Dave for spending some time on the phone with me today. I appreciate the direction you gave me and the recommendations on how to proceed. And thanks for explaining some of the nuance of SEO.

Lynne Tolman

Dave has been our web guy for the Northern CA Herpetological Society for years and has always taken good care of us. A shout out today for getting some emergency stuff in order for us with a deadline. Professional and accommodating as ever....

kori bettencourt

Dave is helpful, easy to understand, & easy to work with. I recommend him for your website needs.

Office Mates

After all the work I put into my website for my new Bookkeeping business I wanted to make sure that it could be found. After all, what's the point of a website if it shows up on page 10 of a search? Trying to get my website on the first page or two of a search has been a challenge to say the least. I have read numerous articles, watched videos, talked to a few companies, and even hired someone to train me how to optimize my website so it could be found. Recently I called Daveworks and talked to Dave. WOW he was awesome! I realized that I would have saved a lot of time, money and headache if I had just called him first. Dave is a great teacher and able to make the complicated world of SEO not so complicated. He was able to take something that seemed Greek to me and break it down into plain English. I highly recommend his services!

Bret Ervin

We at Ervin Sales Group have used Daveworks exclusively for the past 8 years for all of our website and SEO work and could not be happier. They have played a key role in the growth of our company over the years. The results of a properly designed website that reaches the masses is priceless. Thanks again Daveworks, customer for life!!! Bret Ervin Ervin Sales Group

Todd Heldt

After building our web site many years ago, Dave is still there to help us out. Not only did he repair some web site problems, he still offering his advise to imporve our search results. Thanks Dave.

Randall Sherman

Dave is quite the professional. He did everything he promised he would do and was patient in sharing his knowledge. Highly recommended.

Steve Fisher

Working with Dave and Daveworks has been a great experience. I am not a computer person, but Dave is a teacher as well as a developer. He has been just fantastic in getting my web site working and helping me understand issues of content and promoting yourself and others. I enjoy every meeting we have and he is very responsive to getting the job done and done better than I imagined. The value added services he offers make is a pleasure to know him and work with him. Dave also has a chicken coop that makes my chickens very jealous.

Peggy Seitzinger

Dave made the potentially overwhelming task of re-creating our website, easy to understand with step by step instructions, support and patience. A great experience all the way around.

Robert Zoppi

I've had Dave at Daveworks build multiple sites of mine and my clients and he has always delivered amazing results! He is so detailed and captures exactly what you're looking for. On top of that, he is a pleasure to work with.
