Not a static brochure

Websites people stay on

Most small-business sites are static pages: people glance, scroll and leave. Mine are interactive. Live demos, calculators, booking tools and plug-ins from other platforms, connected through their APIs, so visitors do something instead of just reading. Every page is built to hold attention and turn it into enquiries.

Mobile-first

Optimised for every phone

Around three quarters of the time UK adults spend online is on a phone, so I design for small screens first, then make it shine on tablet and desktop.

Why phones, speed and security matter

Real figures from independent sources, so you can see why I build the way I do.

Google uses the mobile version of your site for indexing and ranking, so a site that works badly on a phone can rank badly everywhere.

How it works

From first chat to live website

You can be live 7 days from agreement. Most first drafts are ready in under 7 days.

Step 1 of 5

1-hour consultation

We talk it through online and go properly through your business, who you want to reach, and what a great website would do for you.

  • Your ideas, inspiration and branding
  • What you want visitors to do, whether that is call, book or buy
  • Anything you love or hate about other sites

You get: A clear plan, and a quote before anything starts.

Step 2 of 5

Design

I design every site myself, around your ideas rather than a template. It is mobile first, so it looks right on a phone before it is stretched out for desktop.

  • Layout, colours and style built around your brand
  • Mobile first, then tablet and desktop
  • Interactive touches where they help turn visitors into enquiries

You get: A first draft to react to, most often in under 7 days.

Step 3 of 5

Build

Once the design feels right I build it properly: quick to load, easy to use with a thumb, and set up so search engines understand it.

  • Fast loading and mobile friendly
  • Basic SEO included
  • Contact forms and any plug-ins you need, connected up

You get: A working website, ready for your review.

Step 4 of 5

1-hour review

We go through the finished site together, on a computer and on a phone. If something does not feel right, we change it before anything goes live.

  • A walk-through of every page
  • Tweaks made so it feels like yours
  • Questions answered, no jargon

You get: A site you are happy to put your name to.

Step 5 of 5

Launch

I put it live and look after the technical bits: hosting, your email, the SSL padlock and backups. All free for your first year, then from £30/month if you carry on with me.

  • Hosting, email, SSL and backups sorted
  • Live in 7 days from agreement
  • Updates and SEO optimisation available as extras

You get: Your website, live and ready to bring in customers.

Recent work

Recent websites I’ve built

Two ways to work: I build the whole thing, or I build the framework and your team takes it from there.

Built end to endTilly ADHD StudioADHD coaching studio near Stowmarket, SuffolkNatalie coaches people with ADHD from a garden art studio, and she didn’t want a website that felt clinical. I built the whole thing, from the playful design to the clickable details and a clear path to a free 30-minute chat. It looks and feels like her, and her verdict was “just a billion times better”.Read the case study →Visit the live website ↗

Framework, updated by their teamAccredited Heating ServicesPlumbing, gas and oil services in EssexAccredited Heating Services wanted to keep control of their own site. So I built the framework: the design and structure for their gas, oil, plumbing and powerflush services, plus a gallery for their projects. Now their team add and update the content themselves, without waiting on me.Read the case study →Visit the live website ↗

Questions

Quick questions

You can be live 7 days from agreement. Most first drafts are ready in under 7 days. The full timeline depends on your content and how quickly we can review it together.

One bill and one person to call, instead of separate providers for your hosting, your email and your SSL certificate. I can manage your domain too, so there is nothing to chase.

Yes, please. Share your thoughts, inspiration and branding, and I design the site around them. I design every site myself, so I don’t build from another designer’s work.

Basic SEO is included: page titles, descriptions, speed, mobile-friendliness and a sitemap. SEO optimisation, to push your rankings further, is an optional extra. Rankings depend on many things, so I’ll be honest about what to expect.
