Welcome to Code Forged Digital

Code Forged Digital is a veteran-owned web development business that partners with small businesses and nonprofit organizations to build clean, fast, and accessible websites they can rely on. The mission is simple: remove the intimidation and heavy-lifting of getting online and give business owners back valuable time.

Built on Service

Dan, founder of Code Forged Digital, at his desk.

Hi, I’m Dan. After 36 years in the military, I’m now the founder and developer of Code Forged Digital.

When you hire Code Forged Digital, you’re hiring me — I build your site myself, start to finish. There’s no account manager standing between us, and no hidden team doing the actual work, which means no agency-level pricing either. I work with small businesses because I understand the challenges of trying to maintain and grow a business all at once.

From initial consultation through post-launch and beyond, I focus on building lasting relationships. Every project is as unique as your business, so I work directly with you to understand your business needs and goals. I don’t rely on “one-size-fits-all” templates or overcomplicated systems. Each site is carefully built using modern development practices, creating an affordable and custom website that fits what your business needs now, while allowing you to scale as you grow.
