What we build

The kind of sites we build.

Every site is designed for the visitor and built to load fast and stay easy to update.

Business & brand sites

A polished home for your company, with a clear picture of what you do and an easy way for people to reach you.

Landing pages

Single, focused pages built to make one point and drive one action, whether that is a call, a form, or a download.

Redesigns

A dated or slow site brought up to modern standards and made to load fast on every screen.

Reference tools & resources

Interactive calculators, downloadable guides, and reference pages that give your visitors something useful.

Ready to launch · for oil & gas brokers

A complete broker site, ready to rebrand as yours.

The McCracken Land Services site you can click through right now isn't a mockup — it's a full, working oil & gas broker site. And it can be yours. We swap in your name, colors, logo, and details, and you launch a polished, professional site in a fraction of the time and cost of building one from scratch.

It comes complete, with the landman toolkit already built in:

Browser-based deed & interest tools Field-reference PDF guide library Stratigraphic chart library Blog & contact form Scissortail traffic reports, free
Brand identity

A brand is more than a logo.

A logo on its own is not a brand. We build the whole system, the colors, type, icons, imagery, and voice, then write it all down so it stays consistent everywhere your business shows up.

Logo & wordmark

A primary mark plus the variants you actually need: emblem, one-color, and an app icon.

Color palette

A tight, purposeful palette with hex codes and rules for where each color is used.

Typography

A heading and body pairing, licensed for web and print, with a clear hierarchy.

Iconography

A matching icon style so every graphic on the site and in documents reads as one set.

Photography direction

How photos are chosen and treated, so imagery supports the message instead of fighting it.

Voice & guidelines

How the brand sounds, written into a guide your whole team can follow.

We put together the complete identity for McCracken Land Services, from the logo to the voice. The guidelines are public, take a look at the kind of work you would get.

The focus

We build informational sites, not online stores.

We stick to informational and marketing sites and skip the online stores, booking systems, and web apps. Leaving those out keeps a site fast and cheap to host, and there is far less that can go wrong.

You get a professional site that loads quickly and stays out of your way.

× no shopping carts × no payment systems × no logins or dashboards × no monthly platform bloat

Scissortail Reports

Every site we build quietly keeps track of its own traffic and emails you a clean, plain-English report. You know whether your site is actually working, without ever logging into anything.

Straight to your inbox

A short weekly summary: how many people visited, what they read, and where they came from. Monthly instead if you'd rather.

Nothing to log into

No dashboard to learn, no password to lose. The report comes to you, with a private link to your live numbers and a one-tap PDF.

Our own tool, not resold

We built Scissortail ourselves and run it on our own sites. It isn't a third-party service we mark up — it's part of what you get.

Private by design

No cookies, no stored IP addresses, and no following people around the web. No cookie banner needed.

Approach

How the work gets done.

01

Hand-built, not templated

Every site is built from scratch instead of stamped out of a bloated page builder, so it ends up looking like your business rather than a stock theme.

02

Fast and secure by default

Static sites served from a global network, so there is almost nothing to hack and nothing heavy to slow it down.

03

You work with the builder

No account managers and no handoffs. You talk to the person who is actually making your site.

04

Honest scope and pricing

You know what you are getting and what it costs before we start, with no surprise invoices later.
