Personally Written by Vincent Pierce - Owner & Lead Developer

Hey there! I'm Vincent Pierce, and I am the owner and lead developer behind Windy Pines Web Design LLC. I wear every hat of the business; I write the code, work with you directly, handle support, manage each project, you name it and I do it. The only thing I currently outsource is the designs of the websites, I am personally terrible at designing and so you really would not enjoy the "art" I would produce anyways. I am just a developer, so I am just good at telling the computer how to optimally display a website using code. Think of it like building a house, a designer is an architect who understands design theory to make sure the house looks nice and is secure, and I am a construction worker who understands how to implement everything. I founded this company with one goal in mind, to provide real, meaningful value to small businesses across Texas through affordable, high-performance websites.

Why I Built This Business

I will admit, web development was certainly not my first stop in programming. I started out with a strong interest in Game Development, which evolved into more advanced Graphics Programming and Game Engine Development in C++. That world taught me a lot about advanced systems and built my foundational knowledge of programming as a whole. I still enjoy doing those things on the side as a hobby when I have time, but the issue was the job market for that field of programming was not looking viable long-term. The job market in programming has been plummeting in general, but game development and graphics programming was on an even larger spiral with no sign of slowing down. So I was really looking for something more stable, something I could use to make a difference in the world, and so I stumbled into web development as being the next best thing career wise. Which inadvertently has sort of plateued.

So pair web development (which is acutally useful outside of a coorporate job) with the fact that I have been surrounded by small business owners my entire life, and so here we are! My dad and grandpa were both self-employeed. My life long best friend and aunt both run a seperate cleaning service. I have a cousin that pursued photography for a while, and another who currently works as a private chef. That independence spiral ultimately led me to attempt a business of my own.

I am currently attending the University of Texas at Tyler, working on my Bachelor's in Computer Information Technology. I have previously obtained my Associate's of Applied Science from Tyler Junior College, and I have consistently been recognized as a well above average academic student. That discipline carries over into my business. I stay sharp, curious, always wanting to learn, and I stay commited to ensure Windy Pines Web Design LLC produces the best possible work.

Who We Work With

Windy Pines Web Design LLC focuses on small businesses throughout Texas. From service based entrepreneurs to brick-and-mortar shops looking for a solid online presence. We don't believe in "one size fits all" solutions. Instead, we build custom static websites that are:

  • Fast
  • Affordable
  • Easy to manage
  • Built specifically for your business goals

Whether you are just getting started or you've been in business for years, we make websites that fit your needs without tacking on bloated features or hidden fees.

What Sets Us Apart

As I have discussed, we obviously are not a big coorporate agency. We do not overcharge, or oversell. As a solo, college student owned startup, I have learned what it's like to stretch a budget and prioritize what matters. That's why our pricing is straightforward, and our monthly plan gives you design, development, management, SEO, and hosting - all in one.

But more importantly, I want you to feel supported. You're not just buying a website. You're gaining a partner who listens, responds quickly, and builds with the success of your online presence in mind.

Let's build something together

If you're a Texas based small business looking for a trustworthy developer who understands what you're trying to build, I would absolutely love to offer a free consultation. Please feel free to reach out.
