Web Developer

Creating impactful content and websites is more than just a job for me; it’s my true mission. I don’t merely write code or design layouts and copy; I infuse my passion and dedication into every project. This is not just my profession; it is my calling.

Building a Web Powerhouse

 

Meet the Owner
Thank you for visiting DivineWeb. My name is Rich Smith, and I am the owner and operator of DivineWeb. I founded this business after gaining valuable experience in technical support at various hosting companies, where I witnessed numerous businesses struggling to find skilled web designers and effective developers. With a background in customer service and technical support, I dedicated myself to mastering several front-end and back-end programming languages, allowing me to offer my expertise to both local and national small to midsize businesses. My passion for supporting business owners began during my time as a business banking sales consultant at a regional bank, where I spent years engaging with new and existing businesses through online chat and phone communications. As my skills evolved, I merged my creative talents with technical knowledge to create DivineWeb, aiming to empower businesses with limited budgets to thrive in the expansive online marketplace.
Why DivineWeb?

There have been many instances where people have asked me why I named my business DivineWeb Development, and it is quite personal; I always express that my skills, knowledge, and focus are a gift from God, our heavenly Father, empowering me to make a difference in the lives of people from all walks of life. The name embodies the essence of the business, as my belief and faith are foundational to everything we do. DivineWeb Development is not a religious organization, nor does it pertain to religion, but rather it celebrates the Creator and the opportunity to share the gifts bestowed upon me.

The name DivineWeb reflects our moral obligation to use technology ethically and responsibly within this ever-evolving landscape. As such, we are committed to responsible website development and AI practices, ensuring that the information we present is truthful and constructive. Consequently, we refrain from undertaking projects that promote negative or misleading information, and we do not engage with extremist political, social, or religious content that could be divisive or harmful to those who consume the information we create. DivineWeb Development is founded on the principles of transparency and integrity, aiming to support individuals in our neighborhoods, communities, and beyond.

Our mission is straightforward: to empower businesses and organizations striving to make a positive impact while ensuring they can compete fairly against larger corporations that challenge smaller businesses in the marketplace.

Meet the Team

Although I started DivineWeb as a one man operation I am not able to do everything on my own because in this industry no one person knows everything. So I have compiled a team of other businesses that come together to fill in for the gaps that I may not have the skills or expertise in completing effectively.

Choosing a team is a careful process that takes time and consideration beyond the fact that if they can just do the job. So in an effort to find like minded partners I reached out to the business owners and technical teams of my affiliates and my former co-collaborators to find the best programmers, designers, developers and experts that share the same vision that I do when it comes to ethical and responsible development.

As a seasoned developer I work on each project and I do not just outsource to these companies or individuals. I collaborate with them when there is a task that I need someone with more experience than I to bring the vision to life. The collection of these experts would cost thousands of dollars if contacted aside from my longstanding relationship with them. It is more less the dream team of website development and App building. I am excited to be able to collaborate with these experts and have them assist in bringing your vision to life online.

Some of my affiliates and collaborators are the technical and design teams from the following online businesses.

Elegant Themes – I have been associated with Elegant Themes since 2013 and they have assisted me with creating some of the most mind blowing WordPress websites for businesses and organizations.
Elementor – Elementor has been a company that has assisted me when I needed to bring some of the heavy lifting for ecommerce and online shops that scale quickly and easily.

Themeforest – As a former builder for themes and code for Themeforest I have chosen several technical liaisons that still provide some of the most powerful themes websites on the planet. Not only for WordPress but for Shopify, Backend Coding including JavaScript, PHP and Bootstrap projects.

Hostinger – For the last 7 years I have used Hostinger and collaborated with their technical team to be able to build and scale everything from shared hosting for small websites to large enterprise cloud hosting. Hostinger is a go to for every and anyone that wants to have a fast, reliable and efficient web site host that can scale at any level. Providing everything from email marketing to vibe coding Hostinger had dominated the market for the past decade and there does not seem to be anything slowing them down in the near future.

These are just some of the companies and tech partners that I connect with on a daily bases to build a rock solid foundation for any website or app that needs to have a team of professionals at their fingertips.

I have not listed everyone and although there is a list of others that make major contributions, the partners that I have listed above have been the cornerstone of hundreds of thousands of website all over the globe.

If you have a business ort an organization you know how important it is to have the right technical team on your side. We help you with your business in a way that other website companies are not able to contribute for your growth. Having a website is not just about content but about context.

How We use AI

As the focus on AI has dominated the news we are fully aware that AI can create text, images and video at the click of a mouse. There are a lot of companies out there that use AI to create their entire business model and website without any human interaction whatsoever. In some cases that may warrant AI usage but when you are building your business it is important to know when and how to use AI to make your business stand out.

AI is great business customers want to do business with you and your brand is you if you decide to make your brand with strictly AI generated content customers will know and your website loses its’ human touch. In fact if that becomes the case many websites may end up being so similar that the business loses its identity.

AI is important and can be used in a way to enhance your business brand but to solely rely on AI to be your business can be a fatal mistake in my opinion.

If that is what your business wants to do it is perfectly fine and we provide links to the tools that you can use to click up a quick website or app in minutes. It is cheaper and faster but the results may not be as engaging to your customers as when human inputs connect with the customers on their level.

We use AI in some of our projects but the usage is closely monitored and scrutinized for accuracy and effectiveness.

We use AI to enhance, not replace and we have noticed that for now it is a tool that can make the process easier and faster but it does not totally replace the human touch.

What We Believe

I created DivineWeb because I saw that there was a need for website developers to be able to create meaningful content and information that makes a difference.

There are millions of websites out there and many of them are very good at entertaining their visitors, however after deep research I found that the websites that last are the ones that educate as well as entertain. Most of our clients are businesses or organizations that we have approached with proposals to build or enhance their website.

The overall mission is to be an authority in your industry by not just building a website but building a hub where people can come to be educated as well as be entertained in a way that makes a difference in how you connect with your visitors.

When we build your website our goal is to make you an authority on your industry so you can be the go to and the one stop shop for everything that you offer. Not just showing off your product but showing off your expertise and building lasting relationships with the people that interact with you online.

Our goal is your success. We’re here to build an online presence that reflects your business standards and professionalism, designed to attract and retain clients. By presenting essential information with clarity and purpose, we help potential customers make informed decisions about your products and services—showcasing your business as a trusted, professional choice in the industry.
