## Approach

Mere's design philosophy holds that the whole task of web design is getting users to the content they need as efficiently and pleasantly as possible. The agency favors custom, hand-built work over templates, bakes SEO and accessibility (ADA) in from the start, and keeps long-term ownership in mind by including hosting, support, and maintenance rather than handing off a site and walking away.
