Happy Design Clients!

What they’re saying:

“Sarah Thomson at Blue Oak Design has excellent web design skills. She is the perfect blend of professionalism and personal attention to client’s needs. A friend of mine referred me to her after my web person retired. I am so grateful I was able to utilize her services. I was so impressed with her interest in my needs and plans for my web site. She designed it to look exactly as I had envisioned it, and then some. I wanted my site to capture specific parts of my life as an author and to emphasis certain books and other aspects of my career. My web site is user friendly, easy to navigate, and I have received many compliments from those who have visited. Blue Oak Web design, in a word, superb.”

“Sarah of Blue Oak Web Design did a tremendous job of listening to our needs and wants and she was able to “read between the lines” and figure out exactly what we were after. We had never created a website from scratch and Sarah had some great input. She was very proactive and had answers for all our inquiries regarding photos, text, links, etc. She also created our logo and business cards with amazing turnaround. Very professional — I would recommend her work to anyone looking for a custom website.”

“It has been a pleasure to work with the staff at Blue Oak Web Design. When I asked Blue Oak to bid on a design for a major new Website, Empathy-Index.com, they quickly provided a very competitive, well-thought-out proposal. We felt very confidant bringing Blue Oak on board the project. During the past 10 months, we required Blue Oak to work closely with a design team, while at the same time interfacing with our programmers and making quick changes based on technical use issues. Blue Oak always met or exceeded our expectations in a timely and efficient manner. We will certainly continue to use Blue Oak’s web design services for future changes and and new projects!”

“For over ten years, I’ve relied on Sarah Thomson of Blue Oak Web Design to help me present myself and my work in the digital arena. She has led me patiently, with enormous technical skill and an artist’s visual instincts, through a world I find intimidating and foreign. She designed my original website and then redesigned it when I wanted to switch platforms, creating sites of great beauty and easy functionality. She is quick, responsive and dependable, both with larger design projects and with assistance in the day to day operation and maintenance of my website. Today, most professional people need an internet presence. A website designed by Sarah Thomson helps ensure that what the world sees when they visit your website is really you.”

“Blue Oak Web Design designed the website for Pen Oakland. PEN Oakland (Poets, Essayists, and Novelist), has been promoting and educating the public about multicultural literature since 1989. Because of Blue Oak’s design, PEN Oakland has an official website for the first time in its history. We are very proud of the work that was done. It showcases our organization in a way that is beautiful and exciting. PEN Oakland looks forward to a long and prosperous relationship with BlueOakWebDesign.com.

“Sarah was my clear choice when I was in the process of branding my consultancy and creating a website. Her portfolio reflected an artistic eye that sets her apart from the rest. She captured the qualities of my brand so well and created a website that is both aesthetic and functional—which is not something that is often seen, because it’s not something that’s easy to do. Sarah is truly talented and a rare gem!”

“Sarah Thomson at Blue Oak Web Design did a fabulous job re-doing our old site, giving it a completely new, fresh, dynamic modern look. Sarah is quick and precise, answering every question and anticipating all our needs, and she has a real artist’s eye for design. And as icing on the cake, Sarah gave us an excellent tutorial so we can maintain the site ourselves. Thank you, Sarah – we really enjoy working with you!”

“Blue Oak web design is a quality agency. The staff’s creative insight, web design skills and professionalism resulted in a compelling and visually stunning video website, which we are very pleased with. Blue Oak has done an excellent job of taking our ideas and the overall feel of our company and incorporating them into a website. The staff is upbeat, good communicators, easy to work with and dedicated. Definitely a worthwhile shop to consider if you are in the market for a custom website.”

“Sarah did a great job of realizing the vision I had while improving upon it. She worked very hard to integrate my ideas with her knowledge of what actually works. My site has only been up a few weeks and I’ve already received a lot of positive feedback about the look and feel of it!”

“It has been my delight to work with Sarah on building my website. It started positively, with her reassuring me that my ignorance of the subject is not going to be a hindrance and that she will not only build the site, but also coach me through the process. Sarah proved to be a true professional; she knows her ‘stuff’, capable, prompt in her responses, thorough, responsive, willing to listen to questions and requests, and quick to implement changes. But there are a couple aspects, which make her abilities shine beyond mere professionalism; they are her creative vision and her intuitive ability to understand my intention and esthetic sense. I plan on working with her on future projects and would highly recommend her.”

“Sarah Thomson’s website design services were excellent. I was impressed by her tasteful choices of color, her design selections and positioning of the texts. She also seems to work like an express train and doesn’t quit until the job is finished. The cost of her services is also very fair. If you’re in need of website design services, I highly recommend Blue Oak Web Design.”

-Mary Webster, Author

“You did a great job! We just love the logo design. The color is strong and the design says so much.”

“Sarah and I recently worked together again on updating my website. I tend to be very detail-oriented and that means lots of little changes here and there. Sarah is such an easy-going person to work with and she took all these requests in stride – never complaining – always making sure I got the results I was looking for. Another thing I appreciated was Sarah’s suggestions for better marketing of myself – when you are too close to your own identity, it is sometimes hard to remember to step back and think about the way an outsider would be viewing you and your site. Sarah helped me think about simple things we could do to elevate my presence on the web. Her years of experience are truly an asset when trying to reflect a professional view of yourself through a website.”
