Build a Platform They Can’t Cancel: Inclusive Web Design & SEO for Queer Creators

If you’re a drag performer, burlesque artist, sex-positive educator, or unapologetically queer creator, you’ve probably already noticed it:

  • Your posts get flagged.

  • Your reach drops off.

  • Your content “violates community guidelines”—without explanation.


And when that happens, you lose visibility, income, and sometimes your whole audience.

You’re not imagining it. The internet is being designed to silence you. But you don’t have to disappear. You can design your way around censorship—and I can help.

Why You’re Being Targeted: It’s Systemic, Not Personal


Platforms are increasingly policing the content of LGBTQ+ and sex-positive creators under the guise of “safety.” But research shows this often targets identity, not just behavior.

A 2024 peer-reviewed study found that marginalized TikTok users—including queer, disabled, and BIPOC creators—experienced shadowbanning even without breaking platform rules.

A CSCW journal analysis revealed YouTube's demonetization algorithm disproportionately impacts LGBTQ+ creators, acting as a form of structural censorship.

The rise of “algospeak” (like replacing “lesbian” with “le$bean”) is a survival tactic in response to algorithmic suppression. This phenomenon has been documented in Social Media + Society.

And it goes beyond platforms:

  • In 2025, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld a ruling that allows parents to opt students out of LGBTQ+ content.

  • The Texas Workforce Commission scrubbed all mentions of gender identity and sexual orientation from its website.

This is not a glitch. This is a digital erasure.

One person, a drag performer, is seated at a computer showcasing a website homepage without any branding or logos. Another individual is reviewing a tablet, while the third points toward a wall featuring pinned design concepts and digital tools. The setting blends digital and physical creative environments, symbolizing inclusive web strategy and self-owned platforms beyond social media. The mood is collaborative, empowering, and community-centered—perfect for representing queer entrepreneurship and creative autonomy.

So, How Do You Stay Seen?


You build a presence that's bigger than the algorithm.


Not just a website. Not just a brand. A touchpoint strategy that protects your visibility—online and offline.

I don’t just design websites. I help queer and sex-positive creators build multi-layered, sustainable platforms of expression and connection—without waiting for social media to play nice.



My Services: Designed for Digital and Real-World Liberation


Here’s how I help you stay seen, supported, and one step ahead—using design, strategy, and a full spectrum of tools that amplify your reach and protect your work.


1. Custom Websites That Can’t Be Flagged

I build fully custom, mobile-first websites designed to:

  • Showcase your performances, classes, or content (even NSFW—with proper consent features)

  • Accept bookings and tips directly—no platform interference

  • Sell merch, tickets, and digital products

  • Host your full story without content restrictions

Your domain. Your voice. Your rules.

The performer wears a stylish suit and hat, confidently engaging the audience. Community members cheer, clap, and wave pride flags, creating a joyful, inclusive atmosphere. The backdrop features small-town buildings and colorful banners, emphasizing celebration, queer visibility, and solidarity.

2. SEO That Gets You Found Without Getting Filtered

Search engines can’t suppress what they don’t understand—so I structure your content to be crystal clear and discoverable:

  • Inclusive keyword strategies that work without compromising identity

  • Page titles and metadata built to attract your actual audience

  • Smart use of language to avoid algorithmic flags while remaining authentic

  • High-visibility blog strategy around terms like “queer performer website,” “safe platform for drag queens,” and “NSFW creator SEO”


3. Branding That Honors Your Full Self

You deserve more than watered-down messaging or mainstream-friendly logos. Together, we’ll create:

  • A bold, value-aligned visual identity

  • Messaging that reflects your unapologetic presence

  • A digital vibe that feels like you, not a template

This isn’t branding for “corporate diversity.” This is branding for survival, joy, and community.


4. Tools That Reduce Your Dependence on Platforms

Even if your Instagram disappears tomorrow, your site, audience, and income can keep going. I set up:

  • Email marketing systems to directly reach your fans or clients

  • Tip jar and booking integrations

  • Link-in-bio pages that you own

  • Privacy-friendly analytics to grow with transparency, not exploitation


A vibrant, flat-style digital illustration shows a diverse group of queer small business owners using both digital and physical tools. One person scans a QR code on a flyer, another arranges a table display with printed materials, and others check analytics on a tablet or hand out promotional items. The setting blends a live event and a digital workspace, symbolizing how queer entrepreneurs can connect with their communities both online and offline. The scene emphasizes visibility, accessibility, and strategic outreach across platforms.

5. Tools That Extend Beyond the Internet

While your site is central, your community doesn’t live in just one place—so neither should your strategy.

I’ll help you set up tools and workflows that go beyond digital spaces, including:

  • Email marketing and print collateral to stay connected across platforms and IRL

  • QR-enabled flyers, signage, and merch that link back to your site from live events

  • Table displays or print prompts that drive bookings, sign-ups, or tipping—even if Wi-Fi is unreliable

  • Link-in-bio systems you control, not ones that shadowban you

  • Analytics dashboards that keep you informed, not tracked

Because true visibility means being reachable, wherever your people already are.



This Isn’t Just About Staying Online. It’s About Staying Free.

The systems aren’t built for us, but we can build our own.

If you’re a queer or sex-positive creator who’s tired of fighting to stay visible, I can help you build a digital foundation that resists censorship, centers your values, and actually works.

Because your work is powerful, your visibility is political. And your platform should be a place of liberation, not limitation.

Let’s design something they can’t take away.
