About Gonzo Creations

Who you'll be working with

Daniel Horan, founder of Gonzo Creations, illustrated holding a lightning-charged hammer

Hi, I'm Daniel Horan.

Most people know me as Gonzo, a nickname from my friends that I've happily carried into my work.

I started Gonzo Creations because I love design, small business and technology, and a website is where all three meet. I want small businesses to have sites that look as good as the work they do.

I studied business and computer animation at Rutgers University. I went back to school because effects and animation fascinated me, and I wanted to understand how they work from the ground up. That's where the flair in my work comes from. I like people to reach the end of a page and wonder, “How did he do that?”

I've been making websites for more than seven years and have worked with different agencies along the way. Most of what I know came from real projects with real deadlines. Now you work with me directly, from the first call to launch day.

  • 📍 Based in Denver, Colorado
  • Working with businesses worldwide
  • One designer, start to finish
  • Rutgers: business & computer animation

How I think about websites

What I believe

Your site should match your work

People see your website before they meet you, so it should show the same care your customers get in person.

Easy to find your way around

Visitors should enjoy being there and find what they came for without hunting: what you do, what it costs and how to reach you.

Beautiful is only half the job

A good-looking site only helps if people find it. Every site I make is built to be found and to turn visitors into customers.

No surprises

What working with me is like

  • You talk to me. You deal with me the whole way, from the first call to launch day.
  • A fixed price in writing before anything starts.
  • A design preview first, with your words and your colors, before I build.
  • Three rounds of changes, plus 30 days of free tweaks after launch.
  • It's yours. Your domain and site are in your name, so you're never locked in.
  • A reply within one business day.

Who I work best with

Owners who love what they do

I work best with owners who care about their craft and want their site to bring in calls and bookings.

I'm a strong fit for local service businesses and trades, restaurants, studios, shops and anyone whose website should be bringing in calls and bookings. If what you need is outside what I do well, I'll tell you honestly and point you somewhere better.

New, and upfront about it

Why work with a new studio?

Gonzo Creations is new, and that works in your favor: every project gets my full attention. My first five clients get 30% off Launch, Standard or Home Services, plus a priority build, in exchange for a short testimonial and permission to feature the finished site.

Off the clock

When I'm not building websites

Outside of work, you'll find me at concerts or out exploring Denver with my dog.
