Let us amplify your voice.

Our team has combined decades of experience designing, developing, and administering content across multiple platforms. We are equally comfortable building from the ground up or working with existing material. We can also integrate components of your old site into a bespoke concept to showcase your brand and identity. The persona you want to share with the world matters to us, and we will devote ourselves to bringing your authentic voice to life.


Custom Design

Mobile-first, ground-up design to ensure your vision is accessible on any screen size and reaches your audience.

Website Optimization

We can identify and tackle problems with your existing site, including security improvements, bug squashing, and restoring hacked sites.

Custom WordPress

Harness the power of one of the most popular platforms on the web—on your terms. We will tailor a user interface to your specific needs.

Content Creation

Our writers capture your voice to explain your ideas clearly and simply.

Site Maintenance

We can keep your site up and running so that you don't have to worry about it. Think "set it and forget it" on steroids.

Analytics

We use a suite of tools to understand your traffic and ensure you are reaching your intended audience.

From the Latin, extāmus is a verb, the first-person plural present active indicative of extō. Kind of a mouthful, huh? Put simply, it means we exist. We are here.

Maybe that doesn't seem like a very powerful message for a media company. So, what?

But, to us, having the right to exist is a big deal. For many of us, simply being here, just existing, is revolutionary. And claiming a voice in that existence can be downright scandalous. At Extamus, we are working every day to change that, and to make our world a place where everyone has the same right to be here—to exist.

We are an affirming, woman-owned media firm that is passionate about holding space for marginalized folx and amplifying voices that need to be heard. We believe in the fundamental right of human expression, and we believe you have something to say.

Our clients are a mix of artists, activists, academics, and just generally good humans. They are as diverse as the rainbow. Whether your content is personal, professional, or anything in between, we want to amplify your voice.

Our Portfolio

lyricoperaoc.org


Complete redesign and development of a new custom WordPress site. The client had an existing WordPress site and was comfortable with the user interface, but could not find a theme that fit its needs. We built the site from the ground up, adding new functionality (such as on-site donations, ticket sales, artist bios and headshots, and past season archive) and designing each aspect of the site with an eye to the company's inevitable expansion. We spent a good amount of time understanding the client's desires and limited time to spend on administering the site, and developed a user-friendly interface so that thier staff can easily add new events, show listings, and news items.

Overhaul of an existing site that had not been redesigned since 2012, and a migration to WordPress. The client had a strong vision of the new design, but was unsure how to make it come to life with his existing publishing service.

New web presence for established landscaping and construction company. Simple one-page design features a dynamic portfolio of previous projects.

jessicamchoi.com


The professional website for soprano opera singer Jessica M. Choi. While the client had some input on design details like font style and general "feel," we were able to conceptualize our own vision of what a site redesign should look like for Ms. Choi. The site is built on the WordPress platform, making the content fully customizable through a user-friendly interface.

pantslessweirdo.com


Modernization of an existing WordPress blog that previously used stock themes and images as an upgrade from its original 2013 custom design. The client requested that the site focus on mobile accessibility, and that the design reflect current UI and UX trends. We delivered a fully-customized WordPress theme, including a robust backend to support the client's unique needs and aesthetic.

A curriculum vitae website for a Ph.D. candidate with the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign featuring the client's background, academic writing samples, and student reviews. Built on the WordPress platform, the client is able to update all content, and WordPress platform includes custom functionality to allow them to easily input student feedback and new published papers.

Fully overhauled professional web presence for Miami- and Orlando-based professional hair stylists and educators Stephanie and Dennis Mero. The Clients previously used a cloud-based website builder, which was difficult to navigate, personalize, and style. We developed a ground-up, mobile-first design and migrated the site to a WordPress platform with a bespoke theme and a variety of custom features⁠. As with most of our engagements, we built a powerful, tailored backend to streamline the Clients' WordPress experience.
