ABOUT RIPPLE WEB CO.
BOUTIQUE WEB DESIGN, BUILT WITH PURPOSE
Ripple Web Co. is a boutique web design studio based in Amarillo, Texas, built on a simple belief — every small business deserves a website that works as hard as they do. I started this studio because I saw too many small businesses getting overlooked, overcharged, or handed a cookie-cutter site that didn’t represent who they really are.
THE PERSON BEHIND THE RIPPLE
I’m Lige Trenton Smith — a web designer, project manager, and IT professional with nearly 27 years of experience in the technology industry. I’ve spent my career building and managing complex systems, leading development teams, and solving the kinds of problems that make most people’s heads spin. From enterprise infrastructure to full-scale web applications, I’ve seen it all.
But my real passion? Helping small businesses get online the right way. Not with a thrown-together template and a “good luck” handshake — but with a thoughtfully designed, professionally built WordPress site that actually drives results.

Ripple Web CompanyWHY RIPPLE?
The name comes from a simple idea: small actions can create big change. A well-built website doesn’t just sit there — it works for you around the clock, reaching new customers, building trust, and growing your business one ripple at a time.
Working with a boutique studio means you get direct access to the person designing and building your site. No account managers, no handoffs, no runaround — just my experience, my attention to detail, and my commitment to getting it right.
WHAT I BRING TO THE TABLE
Nearly three decades of hands-on IT experience. Deep expertise in Web Design and WordPress. A project management background and process-driven approach. A genuine understanding of what small businesses need to succeed online. Amarillo roots with the ability to work with clients anywhere.
