Testimonials
Here's what some of our clients had to say about us:
"Padraic Ryan has been nothing but incredible from day one of the design process. His ideas right out of the gate were dead on. A couple quick tweaks and things were in motion. He wasn't even phased by my nit-picking detail oriented mind. With his unsurpassed ingenuity and insight, he was able to take our site to the next level. With his assistance, he has put us not one, but TWO steps ahead of the competition. We love what he has done. The layout is clean and simple and perfect for our "baby-boomer" clientele.
For those e-commerce stores looking for a new design, Padraic's your guy. Since the completion of his redesign a couple of months ago, our conversion ratio has increased nearly 4% and we recently clinched the title as the largest online dealer in our particular industry. What else could we ask for? Many thanks to Padraic Ryan. He has proven to be a crucial component to our success. Those needing a face lift or a sales boost, look no further!"
-Derek Gaskins, Founder www.ForYourLegs.com
"When it came time to re-design our site we came up with a short list of prime candidates. There were a number of very qualified companies from which to choose, but time after time we kept coming back to Ryan design. The owner, Padriac Ryan was by far the most responsive and professional of the bunch that we had apprached for the job.
Our first concern was getting the design right since Padraic's niche seemed to be a bit more conservative than our world of Hollywood Movie Monsters. We truthfully did not know if he could make the leap from bed and bath to beasts and blood!
Well, not only could Ryan Design make the leap but they have done so with flying colors. Padraic and his team worked closely with our staff all the way through and has continued to go way above and beyond our expectations. The price is right and the service is great. Our sales are up and we feel very confident to have Ryan Design at our side. We look forward to using them again on our next endeavor. Thanks for a job well done."
- Arnold Goldman, The Monster Makers
“Hiring Ryan Design Studio has been a tremendously positive experience. This is my second foray into using X-Cart for an e-commerce site and I wish I had found Padraic and team for the first one. Their creative site design has won us lots of praise from customers (as well as a few competitors) and their careful attention to every detail both technically and understanding the online shopping customer experience has paid off tremendously for us. For instance, my other company’s site was built and designed by X-cart themselves and it continues to have a very hard time generating natural search hits from search engines for the various products we sell. The TREOmodern site is already generating tons of unpaid search engine traffic within 3 months of publishing because of Ryan Design Studio’s use of clean search engine friendly code. The difference is night and day between the sites.
The entire process from initial consultation to finished product was a great experience but what has really blown us away is the support after the fact with the numerous small little tweaks that we have asked for as well as implementation of security updates and patches from X-Cart. You do not simply get a great site design with great functionality…you receive all of that and the confidence of knowing your site will be well tended to when needed in the future.”

"I've found Ryan Design Studio to be second to none in terms of skill, know-how and customer service. I'm sure there are competent design houses out there who offer a similar service but I will only ever return to and recommend Ryan Design Studio. Why? Simply because as someone armed with drive and ambition but with very little knowledge in how to build websites/programming/website aesthetics, I feel I've hit the jackpot - truly! I've been taken care of in a way that goes beyond "doing a good job". Padraic and his team have offered me so much advice, assistance, understanding (of my lack of knowledge), he has never been patronising even though as an inquisitive soul I'm sure not all of my questions have been intelligent. In a nutshell, I'm overjoyed with the way my website looks and functions. I'm so happy I didn't decide to do it myself, what a mess it would have been in comparison! If you're considering having a site done, I can tell you that the value you get in return for what he produces for you will be at least tenfold - he's fantastic."
- Xina Gooding, Nature's Parlour
"A big thanks to Padraic Ryan and the team at Ryan Design Studio for helping us relaunch and vastly improve our sports supplements web site, A1Supplements.com! Throughout the whole process we were impressed with their attention to detail, dedication to quality and creative design capabilities. We had guidance every step of the way and consider the web site redesign done by Ryan Design Studio the best investment we've ever made!"
"We've cycled through web designers several times now in a frustrating quest for the right person. That search was much tougher than we anticipated, but it ended the day I was plugged into Padraic of Ryan Design Studio. He's become an invaluable member of the Bella Luccè team and we now affectionately refer to Padraic as the Jedi Master of Web Design. His design was sleek and innovative, on time and on budget and he is an absolute doll to work with. The X-Cart software is amazing and Padraic has effectively written numerous modifications to customize it even further for us- his web knowledge continually impresses me.
Ninety percent of our clients find us through the web, so having
a cohesive, functional web site is critical to our success. As
a small business owner, I often have more on my plate than I know
what to do with and staying on top of it all is a Herculean task.
With Padraic in our corner, I know I can cross the web site off my “to-do” list
and that's
a huge relief. If I had a dollar for every time someone complimented
my web site, I wouldn't need a business!"
"Ryan Design Studio has and continues to be a pleasure and joy to work with. Padraic and his team have now designed 2 of our websites. The customer service and personal support they have provided, not only with our design work, but general questions and backend support that had nothing to do with the actual “design of the website” was not only superb, but an unexpected pleasure. Other companies we have worked with had no interest in any question we had regarding a backend or support problem unless it involved the design itself. Padraic was willing to help with the smallest of problems that had nothing to do with the overall website design.
If you are looking for a company that is professional, extremely knowledgeable, easy to contact, easy to work with, will quickly respond to all emails and questions, take the time to explain how and why things work, and who, overall, will go above and beyond a “website design” to ensure that your website not only looks beautiful, but functions exactly the way you need it to be, you have come to the right people! We could not have done it without them! Thank you so very much!!"
"For years I have designed my own web sites using HTML and CSS. Recently I needed to build a new e-commerce web site which required the use of PHP and other programming scripts, but I didn't have time to learn all that I needed in the short period between design and launch. I decided to design a template and seek out a competent programmer who could take my graphics and incorporate the necessary programming to make the site function the way I desired. In Ryan Design Studio, I found more than simply a competent programmer, but someone who is a consummate professional as well as a great pleasure to work with. I honestly must say I have never felt so good about handing over my hard-earned money. Padraic Ryan provides what I refer to as "old style" customer service; attentive to customer's individual needs, always willing to answer even the simplest (and I'm sure, repetitive) of questions and absolutely dedicated to helping make a customer's project a success. I had my doubts about out-sourcing this work, but I have been so pleased with the out come of this project that I am looking forward to doing it again in the future."
"Ryan Design Studio has been amazing to work with! They were able to take the concept and vision we had for our web site and create a great product for us! Their knowledge of the web and their willingness to listen and work with us through out the entire creative process has really been a pleasure. We feel like they're an important go-to part of our team!"
"Ryan Design Studio has been nothing short of spectacular. They were able to work with our custom needs and ensure the site was fast, simple to navigate, and optimized for the search engines. In fact within two days of launching we got our first order via the search engines and ever since we have heard nothing but good things from our customers about the site. Padraic is a skillful artist who knows his craft and we look forward to working with him on other projects."
"For me, the measure of a company's professionalism is NOT in the product they create, but in the service they provide after they've received payment. Padraic has outshone several other web designers from start to finish. When I first realized I couldn't code an e-commerce site myself I got in touch with a handful of designers and then sat back to see who made the effort to win my business. Unsurprisingly, most of the designers didn’t get back to me very quickly at all (customer service seems to be a thing of increasing rarity nowadays). Padraic, on the other hand, was prompt and after a couple of emails discussing my needs he provided me with a quote which was very reasonable.
He didn't promise me the earth (as many people do, and then don’t deliver) and told me that he couldn’t get to it for between 3-5 days (he's obviously a popular designer). I found this reassuring since he seems to work to specific timelines which I find to be true of people who are running a tight ship. True to his word he started work on my site on time and had a couple of designs presented to me in short order. After choosing one he then had a working version up and running pretty quickly. I know a little HTML myself so I began setting the backend up (which was part of our initial agreement since I asked Padraic to only do the design work). I had two or three issues which I couldn't for the life of me solve and eventually asked Padraic for some help and he responded immediately, even though he'd received his payment already.
I was in the middle of launching my cosmetics company (www.sezeur.com) and was running up against very tight deadlines from my bank and marketing agency. I cannot say 'Thank you' enough to Padraic for helping me get my site working properly when many other designers would’ve stalled and taken their time after receiving their money. If you’re looking for a talented web design studio who say what they mean, and mean what they say as well as keeping you informed throughout the whole process then you really have to speak to Padraic. I would recommend him, and his team, to anyone."
"What a wonderful job you have done creating the Blue Flour Web site! Your attention to detail, quick responses, suggestions and knowledge that you offered were second to none. I would never have gotten this project done without you, and I have learned so much along the way.
Thank you. You have made this project a success and made me very happy!"
"Ryan Design Studio and Padraic in particular has been my right-hand man in developing ShopMerrickville.com. I brought him the design and he configured X-cart and made it work with my design, and he helped me through every other step needed to get the site online. He always responds quickly and has good ideas. He has lots of experience with the web and X-cart and lots of good advice and I highly highly recommend him!"
"I would highly recommend Ryan Design Studio for any web design or e-commerce project. As you can see from its portfolio, Ryan Design Studio produces original yet impressive-looking web sites that reflect the personalities of their owners. In addition, their experience with e-commerce will help your web site become a commercial success."
