In New York's Hudson River Valley
Hello
I’m Ben Ratliff, a career web designer and developer with extensive experience in creating exceptional online experiences for web users. In my 20+ years history in the field, I have designed, refined and created state-of-the-art web sites for prestige brands, non-profit organizations, educational software start-ups, medical practices and individual artists. In the course of my professional journey, I have developed a body of understanding on what works and what doesn’t in terms of design, usability, search engine optimization and enhancement.
