Beth Hood
Owner
I grew up with the mindset that you could (and should) learn to do just about anything you needed to yourself.
So it shouldn’t have come as a total surprise that in 2008 after my husband and I had written, laid out, and self-published a book, and then had a website built professionally, that I wanted to learn how to make changes to it myself. (It also helped that the web designer dropped the ball on us.)
I didn’t realize how much I would love the work and never imagined making a career out of it. I started Websites with Aloha with the aim to give other entrepreneurs control and freedom to manage their sites themselves.
Over time as my skills have excelled, our team has grown, and the professionalism of our sites have reached new levels, we still maintain the core values of freedom and flexibility, and people-friendly sites. We focus our site builds on ensuring that they are easy for our clients to edit themselves and we provide customized tutorials to empower them to do so.”

I’ve always had an insatiable appetite for learning. Luckily, the web design world is constantly changing and expanding, so there is always something new and interesting happening!
Getting to work with business owners from a wide variety of fields, backgrounds, and geographic locations has been a huge source of inspiration. I love getting to know our clients and helping them explore the many ways in which their websites can grow and expand along-side their businesses.”
