Big Apple Media is a one-person studio where every project gets full attention. Nothing gets outsourced, nothing gets handed off to someone unfamiliar with your business.

No account managers. No hand-offs. No disappearing acts. You talk to the same person from the first call to launch day to the phone call six months later when you need something changed.

We keep things clear, organized, and honest. If something isn’t worth doing, We’ll tell you. If something will move the needle, we’ll make sure to prioritize it.

Simple. Direct. Effective. 

Let's Get to Know Each Other

Who Is Behind Big Apple Media, Really?

founder big apple media

Big Apple Media was stared by Gene Armstrong, who is the founder and the lead developer. He started the agency in 2001 from a small apartment in Brooklyn. No partners, no staff, no business plan. Just client work and a lot of late nights.

20+ years later and he still runs every project himself. Designing websites, developing WordPress sites, performs SEO, creating and optimizing content, taking care of ongoing maintenance. One person, no handoffs, no details slipping through the cracks. And clients truly appreciate his dedication and persdonal approach.

Gene is currently works remotely near Seattle, but Big Apple Media is still a Brooklyn company. The name stuck because that’s where the work started, and many of his clients are still in Brooklyn and New York.

Mission

The mission at Big Apple Media is simple: build beautiful websites that actually get results while providing each client attentions they truly deserve.

That means no outsourced work and no disappearing act after launch. Just clean design, smart strategy, and someone who genuinely cares whether your website is working as hard as you are.

02.

Vision

The vision is to be a real partner to health professionals and small business owners, not a faceless service you have to chase down for updates.

It means being invested in the outcome, not just the project. It means caring if the right clients are finding your business and making sure your website is actually doing its job long after launch day.

03.

Approach

No complicated processes. No jargon-filled proposals. No disappearing after the invoice is paid.

Listen first. Ask the right questions. Deliver what was promised, and then some. We make sure clients know where things stand and feel good about where they’re going at all times.

Our Ideal Clients

We work with healthcare professionals and small business owners who need a website that reflects the quality of their practice. Holistic clinics, psychotherapists, chiropractors, plastic surgeons, wellness practitioners, roofers, attorneys, and other professionals come to us when they know their work is excellent, but their website doesn’t show it. They want something that shows up in Google, looks professional, and actually generates calls and inquiries. They’ve tried the DIY route or hired someone who disappeared after launch. They’re ready for something that works.

Our clients want a real working relationship. They ask questions. They give feedback. They want to understand what’s happening with their site and why. They’re not looking for a vendor, they’re looking for a partner who’s invested in their results.

A Few Things About Me

  • I was born in Ukrain and speak fluent Russian.
  • I moved ot U.S. when I was 13
  • I graduated from University of Florida. Go Gators.
  • I spent my early years working for web design agencies in NYC and built hundreds of sites for their clients before launching Big Apple Media in Brooklyn in 2001. After living in Manhattan for 5 years and then 12 years in Brooklyn, I moved to the Olympic Peninsula in Washington, where I'm currently residing and working remotely.
  • I'm a dad to three kids, which means I understand what it's like to manage chaos, make quick decisions, and still deliver on time.
  • I work out regularly. Partly because it's good for me, partly because chasing three kids around requires cardio.
  • I've worked remotely for 15 years, which means I perfected the art of deep focus long before the rest of the world discovered it
  • I don't like to waste time. I just show up, do the work, and repeat.
