Crowell Studios builds websites by hand for people who want the real thing — no Wix, no Squarespace, no templates. Every site is written line by line with hosting I set up and manage for you, so it's all handled in one place.
I'm Chase Crowell — Maine-based, with a Bachelor's in Cyber Security from Thomas College. By day I work in cybersecurity, watching for the things that go wrong when software is built carelessly.
Crowell Studios is where I do the building. I write websites by hand and bring the same instinct from my day job to every project: code I can read, 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 writing your code and managing your hosting, not a faceless platform.
Hand-built sites in real code — fast, lightweight, and made to fit your brand exactly. No page builders, no bloated themes, no compromises.
html · css · javascriptI set up and manage the hosting for every Crowell Studios site — SSL, backups, and uptime monitoring handled for you. One point of contact for the whole thing.
required with every buildA cybersecurity background baked into every project — secure defaults, clean code, and an eye for the small things that keep your site and visitors safe.
built to be safeSites don't stop after launch. Updates, fixes, and ongoing monitoring keep your project healthy and online long after it goes live.
ongoing careDrag-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.
I write every site by hand so it's yours: faster to load, easier to change, and built 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.
Tell me a little about your project — a business site, a personal page, whatever you have in mind — and I'll get back to you.
