One builder.
Everywhere you are.

Follow the work wherever you spend your time, or skip the feeds and email me directly.

MakeAndUpdate is a one-person web studio in West Chester, Pennsylvania. I’m Nicholas Cabel, and I design and hand-code fast websites for small businesses around Chester County, the Main Line, and the rest of the Philadelphia area — and I run every account on this page myself.

So there is no social team here, and none of this is a brand feed. It is one designer posting the work as it happens: sites being built, pages being made faster, and the occasional experiment.

One builder, everywhere you are

Where to find me on the web.

9 places, one person behind all of them. The social feeds are where a build usually shows up first, and email is still the shortest path to a real answer.

TikTok Short-form building, tips, and behind-the-scenes, at @makeandupdate. Google Business Profile Reviews, hours, and directions on Google. Yelp Reviews and ratings from local clients. LinkedIn Company updates, launches, and behind-the-scenes work. Instagram Visual work, culture, and quick product snapshots, at @makeandupdate. Building in public The day-to-day of the build, on Instagram at @buildwithnicholas. Personal site Nicholas Cabel: writing, projects, and contact, at nicholascabel.com. Reading list What I am reading this year, and what is next, on my public wiki. Email The fastest way to reach me directly. Nearly always answered within one business day.

None of this is required reading. If you already know what you need built, skip every feed above and email nicholas@makeandupdate.com — that inbox is mine, not a shared support queue.

If you would rather see the work before you talk to anyone, the work page and the journal cover far more ground than a caption ever will, and about explains who is actually behind the studio.
