You've built a business people love. Headwaters builds the website to match — hand-crafted, fast, and done for you. No templates, no DIY, no headaches.
The best spot in town shouldn't be the hardest to find online.
Most great local businesses don't skip the website because they don't want one. They skip it because it's a hassle — domains, hosting, email, "who do I even call when it breaks."
Headwaters handles all of it. I find well-loved businesses that deserve a real web presence, build the site first, and show you exactly what it looks like — live, on your phone — before you commit to anything.
I look for well-loved local spots that don't have a website yet. Maybe that's you.
Not a sketch or a mockup. A complete, working website, custom-designed for your business.
I send you a link. You open your actual site, running on your phone. No commitment to look.
Love it? I point it at your own domain, set up your email, and keep it running. You're online — for good.
Same hand-built quality either way. Most businesses pick the plan — it means they never have to think about the technical side again.
Best for businesses that just want it handled.
Best for the technically handy who'd rather own it outright.
Not sure which fits? Book a call and we'll figure it out together — no pressure.
I'm a Minnesota guy who builds websites for the kind of businesses I actually go to — the family restaurant, the pizza place, the shop down the road that everyone trusts but nobody can find online.
The name comes from home. Minnesota is the headwaters of the Mississippi — where the whole thing starts as a stream you can step across. That's how I think about your website: the start of your business's life online, built right, by a real person you can call.
No call centers, no offshore template factory. Just one local craftsman, building each site by hand.
— Andrew, Headwaters Web Design
Fifteen minutes, no sales pitch. I'll show you what your site could look like and answer anything you've got.
