Website design for your business
stand out in the crowd
Do you have something to offer the world?
In my book, if you have a trade or profession you rock. But just like a rock star needs their audience, you need to connect with people who are looking for that special thing you do.
Word of mouth is great, but valuable testimonials are not captured.
Social media is a very powerful tool too, but your visibility depends on an algorithm you can’t control.
Trusting those platforms alone is a risky strategy.
This is why a website is your rock - OK, I promise that is my last rock metaphor!
Take control of your business
Websites drive Success
You stand out
It’s a jungle out there. People searching online need to be told why you are their best choice. A good website is your ambassador working 24/7.
You build trust
Sharing reviews and images of previous work tells people you are serious about quality and service. Testimonials show you can be trusted to deliver.
You get found
You may be the best in the business but people won’t know unless you appear in their searches. With effective SEO new customers will be able to find you.

What to expect
1. Talks
First we will discuss your requirements via email, phone or Zoom. I will then email you a proposal for you to review and confirm.
Once that is agreed I will send you my free quotation.
2. Design
Once you approve the quotation I will create a draft design for you to review and advise any changes. I then share a new version of the draft design. This process continues until you are happy to approve the design.
3. Launch
I will create, upload and configure and test your website before your go live.
Then I will arrange a session to talk you through everything and answer any questions.
4. Maintain
Your maintenance and support plan will be tailored to need. I will make regular checks to confirm the site is running and up to date. Updates and changes will be provided as agreed.
FAQS
Read the answers to some of the most popular questions.
HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?
The basic, standard, and advanced plans start at £350, £750 and £950 respectively.
I always aim to quote fairly and competitively so actual costs will depend on your specific requirements and budget. Quotations are always provided with a breakdown of costs and payment by instalments on request.
how long will my website take?
This depends on a lot of factors including the number of requirements and how much other work I have on. As a guide I would estimate 2 - 3 weeks for Basic, 5 - 8 weeks for Standard, and a minimum of 10 weeks for Advanced. The quotation will include a better estimate.
what’s your background?
I studied Fine Art followed by four decades experience of working creatively. My design skills include websites, logos, and branding. I also possess strong business and IT knowledge as I also worked for a major logistics company for 27.5 years.
I take pride in working methodically and diligently to hit deadlines.
what are your payment terms?
I will quote and bill in two stages: Stage 1: design and Stage 2: implementation and hosting.
For Stage 1 a payment of 50% is due up front and the balance when a baselined design is agreed. For Stage 2 options to pay monthly or annually will be advised.
