Websites Built Right

Founder-led web design and digital tools from Minnesota

Websites, online stores, and custom tools built around what you actually need.

I'm Tanner Livesay, founder of Websites Built Right MN. I work directly with small businesses, events, product makers, and meaningful projects, and I plan and build every site and tool myself.

Real projects. Different problems. One practical approach.

The work ranges from an online store and a live event app to community resources and civic information. Each one started with a specific need, not a template.

Direct work. Clear communication. One person accountable.

  • You work directly with me. I plan the project, and I build it.
  • We agree on what the project needs, and what's included, before anyone commits to a price or timeline.
  • I build what the project needs without making it bigger than it has to be.
  • Before handoff, I check the things people notice when they go wrong: mobile layouts, accessibility, privacy, content, and the launch itself.

Who you'll work with

Built by Tanner Livesay.

Before building websites, I spent more than eight years in technical support and operations: coordinating device rollouts, writing documentation, training people, and improving how work got done. That background is why my projects stay organized, get tested carefully, and end with a handoff you can actually use.

The same care runs through every step above.

What do you need the website or tool to do?

Tell me what you're trying to do, who it's for, and when you need it. You don't need to know the right platform or the technical terms before reaching out.
