Mom Designs The Web A Page At A Time

By on May 7, 2008 in Profiles


Web design is a big business area. A professional website is something that everyone wants, but not everyone knows how to get. Stephanie runs a mom-owned web design business from her home. It wasn’t always that way, though.

It started out with an online store for Stephanie. She wanted to create a more professional looking store to help increase her sales. In the process she taught herself all those necessary things needed to create the best websites possible. From there it turned into her business, Toribella Web Design. She may be self-taught, but she’s also a very driven woman and gives it her all.

She is commited to all aspects of web design and the development. She offers website support with each website design project as well.

What some people just can’t figure out has been proven by Stephanie it is possible. All it takes is the right determination and a strong passion for what you’re doing.

Another Idea: How to Start a Website Design Business

    I would advise removal of this article. Stephanie at Toribella Designs abruptly stopped communication with clients and in my case, made off with $500 toward my e-commerce website.

    I have also been trying to get in touch with Stephanie Whipple from Toribella design. She built a web site for me. I’m having technical issues with it and I’m told without her help I’m dead in the water seeing as she is the only one that can over ride the issue. I have came across several other people that gave her money and got nothing in return. Very said because she was a good web designer. If anyone reads this and has anymore info please email me at elation1@comcast.net
    The only think I have is an email address which she doesn’t reply to and an address which I’m posting hoping it will help someone that’s looking to take legal action

    Add me to the list!!!! I gave her over $1,000 worth of my money and she abruptly cut off all communication with me. She still owed me a Blogger and MySpace page at the time and didn’t follow through. Over 10 plus e-mails to her went unanswered. Finally, I caught her through one of those Top100 sites she was running and she answered me back telling me she was hurt by my e-mail where I said she left me hanging. She did leave me hanging…no manual or a consult on how to update certain things on my website. I have no clue on how to update my gallery or change categories. I only know how to add and remove products and change text on the top of my home page. For $1,000, I should have received so much more. Since then I have found a few web designers who have helped me out a bit and one told me she used the most user un-friendly HTML code, just great!!!!
    Stephanie also only worked on an e-mail only basis. Anytime I had questions, I could never call her, she didn’t work that way. That should have been my clue!!!! I think she did great work on my site, but she is a terrible business woman. I had so many of her clients contact me asking if I knew how to contact her. Unfortuately, she did take off with a lot of their money and didn’t do the work. Very sad. Stephanie Whipple should be ashamed of herself in my opinion!!! Strong passion for what you are doing??? I guess she was passionate about stealing from people.
