"How did I get so lucky? I can’t say enough about the level of professionalism that Forest displayed in building my new website. He took the time to meet with me in advance, learn about my business, and talk about my vision for the site. Not only did I get a clear picture of what I could expect as the project unfolded, Forest also taught me a lot about marketing, technology, and web design! I remember thinking, “This guy should be a teacher or perhaps a writer,” as he described some of the features we’d be working with—stock photos (paintings on a wall), content (sounds in a symphony), call-out boxes (haiku). His ability to articulate the nuts and bolts of web design was refreshing. Forest’s responsiveness, clarity, patience, and expertise were exceptional from start to finish. I couldn’t be more pleased. . ."

"I couldn't be happier with Forest's website design and support. I came to him with a vision of a fairly complex site that I thought I would never be able to afford. I was surprised Joomla! and Forest had enough technical capabilities to do everything I wanted.

I now have an amazing site that is everything I had hoped and looks great. I talked with a "SEO expert" out of LA to help with that end of the site and he commented it was the best looking Joomla! site he had ever seen. I think so too. I am amazed at what Forest put together and how clean and fresh the design looks. I love his attention to detail in his work. He wouldn't leave even the smallest glitch, no matter how long it took to fix it.

During the months of hard work on the project, he always answered my questions within 24 hours- usually less and took great care to answer them fully. I have to say I am more impressed with the support and service I received from Forest than I have been with almost anyone else's.

If you are thinking of starting a website- working with Forest would be the best thing you could do. It will be done expertly and at really reasonable rates with the ability to make changes, updates yourself after it's completed, so you don't have to pay someone else to add things here and there. I just love being able to have the freedom to do what I want with my site, make my own edits, additions, etc. Thanks for working so hard, with such skill and dedication."

“Consider me an ecstatically thrilled customer. I had an impossible wish – to work with a web expert who was geeky enough to design a site with all the functionality I needed, cool enough to do render a great design that was clean and fresh, and personable enough so that I felt I was actually an important customer. Forest gave me all that and more. He’s a pro, multi-talented, cutting edge, easy to work with, comes up with great ideas, and is well networked and resourced. I truly feel as if I am taken care of even after my site is up in terms of upgrades and any questions I have. I also love the Joomla program Forest works with as it enables me to do a lot of updates on my own – much of it pretty easy. I’ve gotten so much great feedback about my site. Forest is the man. Consider yourself lucky if you’re his client..."

"I'm amazed at the functionality, look, and feel of the site Forest created for us - especially when I consider the cost compared to a more traditional design firm. I literally saved thousands of dollars without sacrificing any of the things I was wanting. And in fact, I got more. Take the Joomla content management system for example. I had no idea this technology existed. The fact that you can easily change your content whenever you want is a no-brainer. It saves time and money.

Working with him is just great. High integrity, amazing efficiency, clean & clear communication and a wide base of knowledge are what you can expect. It’s not just a web site he is offering; it’s also the strategies that make for a successful site, things like user-centered design and sophisticated marketing content ideas. It’s rare to find someone who can hold both the larger vision of a project and manage all the details so impeccably. This really sums up my experience of working with Forest. Linden WebWorks gets my highest recommendation."

"I've spent the last decade helping my clients improve their Web presence through better design, information architecture, and content.  I know dozens of designers, and think that Forest's work can stand toe-to-toe with the best agencies and the best designers out there.  He also made invaluable suggestions concerning my site architecture, and helped me to fine-tune my brand in ways that have allowed me to capture far more work then I did before."
