About me

Hey, I'm Terris.

I design and build websites for Singapore businesses, then stick around to look after them. Same person for the strategy, the design, the code, the SEO and the ads.

Keep scrolling. This is my desk.

This page is a 3D story page. I build them for clients too.

01 · How it started

This started as a frustration, honestly.

I spent years building websites, running ad campaigns and untangling search rankings, and I kept watching the same thing happen. A project goes from account manager to designer to developer to SEO specialist.

Somewhere along that chain the idea gets watered down, the timeline slips, and the client ends up explaining their own business again to somebody new. Watch the brief.

02 · The fix

What if one person just did the whole thing?

It sounded backwards. But somebody who understands the full arc, from the first conversation to the last line of code and the marketing after it, can't lose anything in a handover. There isn't one.

So everything you'd hire a team for is on this one desk. Let me show you round.

03 · The monitor

Design

I learn your business before I draw anything. Who your customers are, who you're up against, what makes someone pick up the phone. Then I design around that, not around a template.

Click the screen. A shop, a clinic, a cafe and a firm, each from wireframe to live.

04 · The keyboard

Code, with AI

I build it with AI doing a lot of the typing. The thinking stays with me: what to build, how it should work, and reading every line before it goes live. It's how one person ships this fast without cutting corners.

Type something. It lands on the screen.

05 · The plant

SEO

Search is the slow one. It grows if you look after it every week and it wilts if you don't. I work on it month after month for the clients who want to be found without paying for every click.

Click the plant to water it. Once it's full, the next click cuts it back.

06 · The dial

Google Ads

Ads are the dial you can turn today. I set them up, watch the numbers that pay your bills, and turn it down when a campaign isn't earning its keep.

Turn the dial up. More budget in, more enquiries out.

07 · The mug

Support

A website isn't done the day it launches. I keep it updated, backed up and fast, and when you need a change you message the person who built it. No new contact to bring up to speed.

Click the mug to drink it. Click again for a refill.

09 · The corkboard

Four notes I check every decision against

They're pinned above the desk so I can't pretend I haven't seen them. Does it move your numbers? Am I being straight with you? Will it still hold up in six months? And when it goes wrong, whose fault is it? Mine.

Results over vanity
Enquiries, leads and revenue. Not the impressions that look good in a report and change nothing in your bank account.
Straight answers
If something isn't working I'll tell you. If you're asking for something you don't need, I'll tell you that too, even when it costs me the work.
Never really finished
The version that works in January is rarely still right in September. I keep testing and adjusting.
It's on me
One person is accountable, so there's nobody for me to point at when something goes wrong. That's uncomfortable on purpose.

Click a note to turn it over.

10 · The shelf

I also run Terris Recommends

It started because finding a decent plumber, dentist or maid agency in Singapore means wading through directories you can't trust. So I started researching them properly and writing up what I found.

It's now 437+ guides across 28 categories, and it taught me most of what I know about SEO, because I had to make it rank without a client budget behind it.

11 · You get me

Want to talk it through?

Tell me what you're trying to do and I'll give you an honest answer, even if the answer is that you don't need me.

  • Month to month. If the results aren't there you're free to walk.
  • You own the code, the designs and every account.
  • Same person from the first message to every tweak after launch.
