About UplinkSpyder, Inc.

Who Knows the Web Better than a Spyder?

UplinkSpyder is a full-service provider of website development, digital marketing, graphic design, and content writing services located in Eugene, Oregon. Because we work on the web, we are proud to have clients all over the world.

What’s in a Name?

UplinkSpyder is the vision and passion of Emmanuel and Deanna Rivera. Our passion is evident in all we do, and we strive to share it with you. OK, but what’s with the name… UplinkSpyder?

Well, we think it’s pretty catchy, but…

The word “Uplink” relates to direct communication, which is the core of our business and is obviously related to the word “online”. We are honored to “link” our knowledge and skills to the needs & goals of your business. The word “Spyder” is both a play on the word Spider (like a Spider that navigates and processes the web) and security (thus SPY.)

Most people remember Uplink or Spyder. We’re cool with that.

Our Passion

Our passion isn’t just to help your business flourish and grow but to be a part of the journey to making your dreams a reality. We thoughtfully provide everything needed to successfully market your business online. This includes:

Website Development
Graphic Design
Digital Marketing
Content Writing
Print Ads
and much more!

Website Development

Website development is a process that perfectly combines creativity and anything digital. We will meet with you to understand your brand, services, and products and then create a beautiful website that helps your business grow and establishes you as an authority in the industry.

Graphic Design

Our graphic designs are tailored to you and your business, unique, powerful, versatile, and unforgettable. We take pride in producing high-quality designs for newsletters, logos, social media graphics, fliers, pamphlets, posters, and much more. Contact us today for high-quality graphic designs.

Digital Marketing

Digital marketing encompasses everything from the website, social media, and ads all the way to Youtube and Instagram. Our experienced graphic designers will manage everything from creation to completion.

We are dedicated to delivering distinctive, one-of-a-kind service to every client. This requires an investment on your part, but we aim to see your business recoup that many times over.

Content Writing

No matter how pretty and functional your website is, Google and all those search engines don’t have eyes. That’s why content, the word on your website and blog, are absolutely vital to the success of your business online. And we’re not just talking anything and everything goes, because that’s just not how this digital marketing thing works. We’re talking data focused content that is natural, organic, creative, conversational, optimized, and made to attract not just people but Google.

Print Ads

It seems in a digital world that there’s less need for print ads, but this is simply not true. Having print ads still has a massive effect on building brand awareness and reaching your target audience. To learn more, contact us today.

Our Success is Your Success

We’ve made it to where we are because of a dedication to constantly improve, to maintain a high standard of communication, to provide timely and quality services, to infuse every project with creativity and passion, and to provide a strong team with a shared, voracious tenacity of seeing a project through until it is right.

We are very proud of our talented team of marketing and technology professionals, writers, designers, and programmers. All of us are dedicated to establishing long-term relationships and partnerships with our clients. We judge our success by your success.

We are committed to the community and are proud of the many pro-bono projects in our Portfolio. Our company takes on as much of this work as possible. We’ve seen the impact that a great online presence can have on a non-profit and nothing feeds the soul more than knowing our investment results in help for those who need it most.

Here is a list of some of our individual services. Please know that our goal is to create a holistic mix of services to help you achieve your goals.
