★★★★★ 5-star reviews from local businesses
Step 1
We talk.
A few days
Every good website starts with the right questions. Before I design anything, I get to know your business, your customers and what's slowing you down. Then I come back with a clear plan and a fixed price.
What I do
- A free 30-minute call, relaxed and no hard sell
- A look at your competitors and your local market
- A clear plan and a fixed price, in writing
- For rebuilds, every page mapped first, so you keep your place on Google
What you do
- Tell me about your business and what you'd like the website to do
- Share any logo, colours or photos you already have
- Point me to a few websites you like (optional)
- Sign the agreement and make the first payment, and we start
Step 2
I build.
One to two weeks for most websites
This is where your website comes to life. I design and build everything from scratch, with no templates and no plugins, and you see it take shape along the way. Systems take a little longer, and I'll give you a date before we start.
What I do
- A simple wordmark logo and brand colours, if you need them
- A first design, shared for your feedback
- Two rounds of changes included
- Built to be fast on every phone, and tested on all of them
- Set up so you can change your own words and photos
What you do
- Look over the design and tell me what you think
- Send your words, photos and any other content
- One final check before we go live
Step 3
I look after it.
From launch day
Launch day is the beginning, not the end. I handle the technical side of going live, and care starts from day one, so your website stays fast, safe and up to date while you get on with running your business.
What I do
- A final walkthrough together before launch
- Your web address connected, and Google set up to find you
- A short guide to updating your own words and photos
- Care from launch: £49 a month, or £99 with a system
What you do
- Access to your web address, or I'll help you buy one
- A thumbs up when you're happy and ready to go live
- The final payment at launch, if you are paying in full
Typical timeline
Live in one to two weeks.
For most websites. The quicker you send feedback, words and photos, the sooner it's live. Systems take a little longer, and you'll have a date before we start.

Live, with care
Online, found by Google, and looked after.
How paying works
Pay in full
Half to start, half at launch.
For a £1,500 website, that is £750 when you sign and £750 on launch day.
Spread the cost
£300 to start, then £125 a month.
For 12 months, £1,800 in total. Only the website can be spread.
Either way, work starts once the agreement is signed and the first payment is made, and the price is fixed in writing before then.
See every priceQuestions
Questions I hear a lot.
What do I need to prepare before we start?
Not much. A quick overview of your business, what you'd like the website to do, and a few websites you like the look of is enough to get going.
Will I have to write all the words myself?
I'll give you a clear guide so you know what to write for each section. If writing isn't your thing, send me rough notes and I'll shape them into something that sounds like you.
What if I don't have a logo or brand yet?
That's fine. A simple wordmark logo and a set of brand colours are included, so your website looks consistent from day one. If you already have them, I'll work with what you have.
How do I pay?
Pay in full, half when you sign and half at launch. Or spread the website over 12 months: £300 to start, then £125 a month. Either way, the price is fixed in writing before we start.
How long does the whole project take?
Most websites go live in one to two weeks. The quicker you can get back to me with feedback, words and photos, the sooner it's live. Systems take a little longer, and I'll give you a date before we start.
What happens after the website goes live?
Care starts from launch day. It keeps your website online, updated and safe, and covers 30 minutes of changes each month. Care is £49 a month, or £99 with a system.
Can I make changes after launch?
Yes. You can change your own words and photos whenever you like. Small changes are covered by care, and bigger ones are priced before I start.
Got something in mind? Ask me if it's possible.
Tell me about your business. No pressure and no jargon, just an honest answer and a clear price.
