Custom-built websites,

Crowell Studios builds custom websites for people who want the real thing — no Wix, no Squarespace, no templates. Every project is tailored to you, with hosting I set up and manage so it's all handled in one place.

/about

A security analyst who builds the web after hours.

I'm Chase Crowell — Maine-based, with a Bachelor's in Cyber Security from Thomas College. By day I work in incident response — tracing what went wrong, whether that's a misconfiguration, sloppy software, or a user mistake.

Crowell Studios is where I do the building. I put together custom websites and bring the same instinct from my day job to every project: clean code, hosting I set up and manage, and systems I keep an eye on after launch.

Outside of client work I'm usually tinkering with side projects and game servers for fun — it's where a lot of what I know got its start. The point of all of it is the same: you work directly with the person building your site and managing your hosting, not a faceless platform.

/approach

Why custom code, and why hosting through me.

Drag-and-drop builders are quick, but you don't own what they make — you rent it, and you're stuck with their limits, their ads, and their lock-in.

Every site is built from the ground up so it's yours: faster to load, easier to change, and tailored exactly the way it should be. And because I manage the hosting too, there's one person responsible when something needs attention — not a support queue.

Wix— template you rent, not code you own
Squarespace— locked to their platform and their rules
Drag-and-drop— slow, bloated, hard to customize
✓ Crowell Studios— custom-built, owned by you, hosting managed by me
