Real results

I've worked with

How it works

  1. Scope and content first: We agree the page list, goals, and the key user journeys. We also map content so the site structure makes sense.
  2. Design direction: You get a clear look and feel, type, colours, spacing, and components. The aim is clarity, not noise.
  3. Build and content fit: I build responsive templates and fit your content properly. No guesswork layouts.
  4. Accessibility and usability checks: I test keyboard use, focus order, headings, form behaviour, and zoom. I fix issues as part of delivery, not as an afterthought.
  5. Performance work: I keep pages lean. I reduce heavy images, fonts, and scripts. See performance for more detail.
  6. Launch and handover: You get a clean launch, SEO setup, and a handover plan. Ongoing help is available via support.

What you get

Every website build includes the essentials done properly:

For a lean setup with low upkeep, see static sites for speed and low maintenance.

Why doing it right matters

Accessibility

A website that isn't accessible is broken. I build everything to work for as many people as possible - including those using screen readers, keyboards, or assistive tech.

Not only is building accessibly the right thing to do, it's also a legal requirement. You have no choice, but most people won't tell you that.

Performance

Nobody likes a slow site - especially your visitors. I build lean, fast-loading websites that work on all devices and don't waste bandwidth.

Faster-performing sites will soon rank higher than those that don't. So get yourself ahead of the curve right now.

Sustainability

Lightweight sites use less energy, which is better for the planet. I don't do bloat, I host responsibly, and I keep your carbon footprint low.

Feel good about your website as well as doing good for the planet.

FAQs

What do you mean by website design and build?

Design covers structure, layout, content hierarchy, and UI. Build covers front end development, performance, accessibility, and launch setup.

Do you build from templates?

No. I design and build around your content and goals, then keep the code lean and maintainable.

Do you rebuild existing sites or only new builds?

Both. Rebuilds suit weak foundations. Improvements suit sites with decent structure but poor performance, accessibility, or content.

What is included in every package?

A bespoke build, responsive layout, accessibility basics, performance work, basic SEO setup, and a clean handover.

Do I own the website after it is built?

Yes. You own the site and its content. If you are on a monthly plan, ownership terms follow your package agreement.

Can you work with a small budget?

Yes. The packages exist for that reason. Scope stays tight, and we focus on pages that drive enquiries.

What do you need from me to start?

Your key services, who you want to reach, examples you like, and any existing branding. If content is not ready, we plan it and work through it page by page.

How much content do I need to provide?

You provide the raw info. I help shape it into clear page content and a sensible structure.

How long does a typical project take?

It depends on page count, content readiness, and feedback speed. Small sites move fast once content and decisions are in place.

Can I add pages later?

Yes. Add pages as a one off, or use a support plan for steady growth over time.

Will the site be editable?

Yes, if you need it. Edits run through a CMS, or through managed updates. The right choice depends on how often you publish and who edits.

Do you include SEO?

Yes. Titles, meta descriptions, headings, internal linking, clean URLs, sitemap, and structured data. Content quality still matters most.

Do the packages include hosting?

They can. I support hosting, domains, and setup where needed, depending on your plan and current setup.

Can you rebuild my current site instead of starting from scratch?

Yes. If the site has problems that block growth, a rebuild often gives a better long term outcome than patching.

What happens after launch?

You get a tidy handover and optional maintenance for fixes, improvements, and monitoring, so the site stays healthy over time.

How do we start?
