What you get

Everything your business needs online

Mobile-first design

Built responsive from day one. Works flawlessly on every screen size — phone, tablet or desktop.

Fast loading speed

No bloated plugins or page builders. Pages typically load under 2 seconds — good for both users and Google.

SEO foundations built in

Proper heading structure, meta tags, canonical URLs, schema markup and clean HTML that search engines love.

Security by default

Prepared statements, input sanitisation, HTTPS-ready. No shortcuts on security basics.

Custom admin panel

Optional: a simple admin area to update your own content, manage leads or blog posts — no WordPress needed.

Your brand, not a template

Every design starts from scratch around your brand, industry and customer. No recycled layouts.

Analytics & tracking

Google Analytics 4, Search Console setup and basic conversion tracking so you know whats working.

Ongoing support

I stay available after launch. Hosting setup, updates and changes — youre not left on your own.

Technology

Built with the right tools, not the trendy ones

I use proven, stable technologies that load fast, rank well and are easy to maintain. No unnecessary frameworks, no lock-in.

I work in sprints and share progress. You review, give feedback, we iterate — no big reveal at the end.

FAQ

Common questions

Do I need WordPress?
Not necessarily. For most small business sites I build a lightweight custom PHP site that loads faster and is easier to secure. WordPress is a great option when you need a large blog, lots of editors, or a specific plugin ecosystem.
What do I need to provide?
Your logo (if you have one), any existing brand colours, the pages you want and the general message for each. I can help with copywriting and images if needed.
Will I be able to update the content myself?
Yes. For most projects I include a simple admin area to update text, images and add blog posts — without touching code.
Do you offer hosting?
I can set up hosting on a reliable provider and manage it for you, or I can deploy to your existing host. Monthly hosting management starts from £20/mo.
How long does a website take?
A 5-page business site typically takes 5–10 working days once I have all your content. Larger builds or web apps take 3–8 weeks.
What happens after launch?
All projects include at least a month of free support for bugs and minor tweaks. After that you can continue on a monthly retainer or on a pay-as-you-go basis.
