A brief overview
If you’re after a bespoke website to put your business online, I can design and build a website tailored to your needs and one that converts your visitors into customers. Using the WordPress CMS, I can create a beautifully-bespoke theme for your business, built around your branding and goals starting from £899*.
What to expect
The process starts with you. We’ll meet to discuss your businesses and your requirements in detail. It really helps to know what you already like, if there is a cool looking website you’ve seen, or if there is a design you like. If you already have an idea of what you want, I can make your vision a reality. Next, we move onto designs. I will produce a design of your website home screen and various pages. Not a fan the first time round? Don’t worry! We can work together to find a design you’re happy with. When the designs are approved, I will develop your WordPress theme or website – this often takes the longest, depending on what we’re putting into your website package!
Deliverables include:
Deliverables are what I will produce for you.
- A fully responsive and optimised design to ensure your visitors get the same experience on a smartphone, or a 1990 CRT monitor! Your website will scale up and down seamlessly.
- Content management system (CMS) to ensure you can manage your website, and the content users see. Primarily, I use WordPress as it is free for clients and covers most of the requirements of a small business. If we’re developing a bespoke website, I can integrate with Craft CMS.
- Content migration/management meaning I will work with you to move your content from your old website to your new. This is easy if you’re using WordPress already – we just swap a theme and do some testing! If you don’t have a website, I will share a content planner to help you decide what is going where, and what you want to say on each page.
- Optimised website for faster load times, better performance and better SEO rankings.
- Thoroughly tested across common browsers and devices (Chrome, Safari, Desktop, iPhone, iPad).
- Managed deployment, with little to no downtime to ensure your business transitions smoothly from your old website, to your new! Sometimes, downtime can’t be avoided – I keep it as little as possible.
- Three…yes, THREE months of aftercare, as standard! My websites come with three months of aftercare following deployment, to ensure any bugs that arise are resolved swiftly, and minor design changes can be quickly and easily made.
What else can you get?
I provide a whole range of optional extras for you to choose from.
- Domain acquisition. I will find and purchase the domain you want, or recommend another if that is unavailable.
- Email design and marketing lists to ensure you can reach out to your audience and look great whilst doing it!
- Training to ensure you can manage your website with ease.
- Ongoing support through my maintenance packages following your first three months of aftercare.
Your investment
Parting ways with large sums of money is never easy, especially when starting out as a small business! My websites start from £899*. I work with estimates, and my estimate of your project will be set out at the start through my Project Proposal, if we don’t change the scope of the project too much, your estimate will be near enough what you pay!
* cost is for website design only and does not include fixed costs such as hosting setup, domain names or media resources.
