I focus mainly on website design for fast loading pages which are search engine friendly rather than design. I prefer to code a design which you create. I have been around e-commerce websites for years, so I always ofter tips and suggestions on ways to improve the layout of your website or the flow of your clicks.

I have been coding ShopSite custom templates and built-in templates for years. Below are a list of the templates available within the ShopSite software which were created by me.

Here are a few websites I designed and coded

fireplacehut-sm.jpg FireplaceHut.com Fireplacehut.com was one of the first sites that I designed, created, and coded the custom ShopSite templates from scratch and it was launched mid 2009. This is a ShopSite Pro store using custom templates for their entire website. Fireplacehut.com supplies fireplaces, chimineas, firepits, and other patio accessories to their customers.
homeandstuff-sm.jpg HomeAndStuff.com HomeAndStuff.com was launched in February 2011. The site was designed and coded by LaurenHillsDesign. This is a ShopSite Pro store using custom templates for their entire website. HomeAndStuff.com uses the majority of the built-in ShopSite features as well as new features added in version 11. Their product pages have lots of specific information such as manufacturer, dimensions, capacities, and more. These sections of information are being added by using the extra product fields in ShopSite. HomeAndStuff.com uploads their products to be listed in Google's product search. You can check them out on Google or visiting their website at http://www.HomeAndStuff.com.

sandtrapgolfgifts-sm.jpg SandTrapGolfGifts.com SandTrapGoftGifts.com was designed and created by me. This template was also used in other websites by this same corporation. Each of the additional templates was simply modified by changing the colors of the site.
shopsite-sm.jpg ShopSite.com As many people know, I work as a designer at ShopSite (part-time) as well as do freelance web design in the evenings. Being tech support at ShopSite.com was actually how to I got started with web design. Web merchants would regularly call in with questions dealing with design. I would find out the answer or the 'how to' and would get back to them. By doing this I was self-taught web design. For the last few years I have been creating all the built-in templates available in ShopSite, helping Certified ShopSite Designers navigate ShopSite templates, and I have been creating and updating the ShopSite.com website.
simplytx-sm.jpg SimplyTx.com Simplytx.com came to me when they wanted to take full advantage of ShopSite to build and update their website. They were planning to expand the number of products that they offer. This is a ShopSite Pro store using custom templates for their entire website.

"WOW! Can't say enough good things about Lauren Hills Design. After having significant trouble with a previous ShopSite designer, Lauren has been a breath of fresh air. Responsive to my questions, knowledgeable, timely, and most of all....SUPER AFFORDABLE. Again, can't recommend highly enough." - Matthew, SimplyTx.com
