Daniel McFarland
Founder, Web Developer & Digital Strategist
Hi, I'm Daniel. I started McFarland Media Co. because I believe small businesses deserve websites that actually work for them — built by someone who understands what running a business involves.
Before focusing on web development, I spent years in customer-facing roles, working in sales and managing customer relationships. I've also owned and operated a small business, which taught me firsthand how much time owners spend wearing every hat — and how little is left over for figuring out websites and search engines.
Those experiences shape how I approach every project. I think about how a customer feels landing on your site for the first time, what questions they need answered, and what would make them comfortable picking up the phone. Good design follows from understanding those things.
What I do now
Today I build and optimize websites and implement practical SEO for small businesses — from new sites to redesigns, service-page improvements, technical setup, and launch support. My focus is clear communication and accessible digital solutions: explaining what matters in plain language, and skipping what doesn't.
Why independent
McFarland Media Co. is a founder-led studio, not a large agency. When you work with us, you work directly with me. That means fewer handoffs, honest recommendations, and a website built by the same person you talked to on the first call.
We're based in Fort Collins and love working with businesses across Northern Colorado, though remote projects are always welcome.
Clarity over jargon
You'll always know what's being done, why, and what it costs.
Practical over flashy
Design choices earn their place by helping your customers.
Long-term thinking
Sites built to be maintained, improved, and grown.
