Bonjour. I'm Mike. I make people remember you.
I know the hard part isn't the work.
You're good at what you do. That was never the question. The hard part is the blank page. The about section you've rewritten five times. The site that comes out sounding like every competitor, because writing about yourself is the worst writing there is.
I've watched hundreds of sharp people freeze the second they have to explain their own work. You're not bad at it. It's just not your job. It's mine.
American from Atlanta. I moved to France right after university in 2006: 23 years old, an accent, and a plan to stay for a year or two. That was almost 20 years ago. Somewhere along the way: a wife, three kids, and a tennis habit I refuse to call a midlife crisis.
Building a business in a foreign country teaches you something fast: you can't hide behind a logo. People either trust you or they don't. Your reputation is your only asset. And what you put out online either matches who you are, or it quietly loses you clients. That's the work I care about now.
I started Webodew in 2012. 200+ websites since, for businesses across 18 countries, from solo consultants to airlines.
The job itself is simple: I interview you, catch the way you actually explain things, and build your website, your videos, and your content out of it. Your voice, at full volume. You'll be surprised how good you sound.
Funny thing, the part people end up mentioning isn't the SEO or the code. It's that the writing is genuinely nice to read. Clear, a bit of fun in it, the kind of thing you actually finish.
I think a website can be more than correct. It can be enjoyable. That's the difference between a page someone sits through and one they remember, and honestly it's my favorite part to make.
Teaching forces you to explain things simply. So does this job. I've built four certified courses with OpenClassrooms and Epitech Institute.

Most agencies hand you a team: a project manager, a designer, a developer, and a lot of meetings to coordinate between them. Here, one person knows your business, answers your emails, and does the work. If it ships, I shipped it.
I bring the ideas. You tell me where I'm right and where I'm off. We build something you're proud to send people to. That's the deal.
A quick video chat. You talk, I listen, we figure out what makes you sound like you.
