I can make unique buttons for your links, embellishments around images, drop boxes, backdrops.  Whether you want an elegant button with some graphics set around images as you see on the reflexology demo site, or large pad style buttons like the ones I’ve got on my photography site, styled and colour matched to your preference… you can use them to link your own pages together as clickable buttons or add outside links to an article you’ve written, or that appearance you made.  

For the SEO links on the website are hugely valuable, simple links between your pages making a difference to your ranking.

….or maybe you want to use some sliders at the top to say something or show something in imagery, or do you like the parallax effect on the first page of the demonstration site?  

I don’t just build websites, I want to style and create with you because that’s what makes your digital window to the world truly yours not just another website.

… the possibilities are endless, and they, combined with colour, layout and typography make a site truly yours.  I’m here to help you make those decisions which is why we have a Zoom consultation first, so we meet, chat and get to know each other a bit as part of the process.  

You may notice I’m an artistic photographer using camera movement and multiple exposure among other things.  My images are all available to my clients to licence at just £20 each for something a little different.

Now let’s talk about the technical side of things…

Whether you’re just starting out or ready to refresh an outdated site. I build clean, beautiful, functional WordPress websites for small businesses and sole practitioners quickly and affordably.

What’s included:

On the technical side? I set each website up to include SEO, security, automatic backups and I give you a 20 minute handover training session so not only can you edit your own text and imagery but you can check that everything is running smoothly. If you don’t have a domain and hosting I help with that too, please see the hosting page for more information.

Not sure what to say?  Or what colours to use?

You’re not alone!  The problem is — you don’t know what to say.  What should go on what page?  It’s enough to give you a bad case of writers block.

Then there’s a problem of colour and co-ordination.   You’re not sure what colours say the right thing about you and your business, and you certainly don’t have time to figure it out between clients.

No problem… that’s where I come in.  

With a background in editorial, creative writing, design and professional photography, I don’t just put your site together. I help you work out what to say and how to say it, choose colours and layouts that communicate the right things to the right people.  

And once your site is live, if you’d rather someone else handled updates, security and backups — you can book me by the half hour to do a health check and any updates to your copy and images.

What about SEO, Security and Maintenance?

Your site will come with core SEO and security setup.   If you’re having hosting with my recommended supplier you will have 24/7 technical support from them. The service is incredibly reliable I delierately choose not to ‘host’ myself as their affiliate simply because that places me as a barrier to you having direct access to them.

Your training session on handover will include advice on how to maintain your site. For a health check and any larger changes you can book me by the half hour subject to current rates. Special half hour/hour rates are set for this for clients.
