My name is Jack Born, and I am proud to say that I designed this website from the ground up. When Episcopal High School of Jacksonville put out the bid for vendors to propose new layouts for the website, I presented them with innovative ideas that now makes the website more flexible and useful for everyone.

  • The pages load faster because my redesign reduced the amount of HTML code by 66%
  • The administration can quickly and easily change the content as easily as they would write an email. I gave them a content mangement system that even the most inexperienced computer user can operate.
  • The template system I created makes it possible to change the layout of the entire site (close to 200 pages) in less than five clicks.
  • Several teachers and staff members can edit content on the website and help keep the website current and the content fresh.
  • The website uses a bare minimum of javascript (only on two pages), and is built to be very accessible to those with vision impairments.

But I think the real reason they chose me is because I had proven to them over the prior 18 months that I am reliable, quick, and creative.

"I've tossed Jack more hot potatoes than I can remember, and never once has he failed to handle them with speed, professionalism, knowledge, and good humor. He's ironed out problems I've had with web elements ranging from JavaScript to cookies to graphics to search functions with ease, and taught me a great deal in the process. Jack is conscientious, thorough, always available, and a pleasure to work with; I depend greatly on his knowledge, expertise and dedication, and I recommend him highly."

Who I work with

If you want to increase your sales with marketing strategies that bring in more dollars than they cost, you should give me a call.

Unlike other web designers, I've spent my own money testing different methods of marketing my various products and services and I know what works and what doesn't. I am one of the few web designers that makes more money with his own web based businesses than I do designing websites for others.

Whether you run a small to mid sized company, you're the CEO of a public company that needs to increase revenue, or you're working in sales for a company you don't own... if increasing your sales is important, then you'll want my help.

I operate my web design/marketing business under the brand Surefire Web Design. See my website for more information about my services.
