About

Hi, I'm Michael Shor.

I'm a freelance web designer and developer based in the US. I started Shorcraft Web Studio to offer businesses something the big agencies can't: direct access to the person actually building your site.

When you work with me, there's no account manager passing messages back and forth. No junior dev misinterpreting your feedback. Just clear communication, thoughtful design, and code that's built to last.

I care about the details — from pixel-perfect layouts to fast load times to sites that are actually easy for you to manage after launch. I don't cut corners, and I won't hand off a site I'm not proud of.

What you get when you work with me

  • Clean, handcrafted code — not page-builder bloat
  • Mobile-first design that works on every device
  • SEO foundations built in from the start
  • Direct communication throughout the project
  • Honest timelines and upfront pricing
  • A site you can actually update yourself
  • No agency middlemen or inflated overhead
  • Support after launch when you need it

My philosophy

A great website isn't just one that looks nice — it's one that earns trust, communicates clearly, and moves visitors to act. Every decision I make in design and development is in service of that goal. I build sites that represent your business the way you'd represent it in person: professional, approachable, and worth remembering.
