Getting off on the right foot

The kick off, where I get to know your unique requirements and situation, what problems I can solve for you and how best to really get you the future you desire. We will create a strategy tailored for your results.

Design

Priced Per Project

Art direction and assuring impact

This is where the aesthetic and purpose of the website are fleshed out and refined, ensuring it not only has the right feel, but has the right impact on users.  I take your company’s identity, goals, and content and use them to explore 3 art directions for the website. Once the art direction is decided, we will create a final design.

Develop

Priced Per Project

A real, functioning website

FAQ

Why shouldn’t I do it myself?

You can — but do you really want to spend hours figuring out design tools, learning how to optimise for mobile, SEO, and performance?  Hiring a web designer means you skip the learning curve and get something polished, faster.  Like how you could cut your own hair or bake your own wedding cake.  Unless it’s something you do all the time, the results might not be quite what you were hoping for.

How long will it take to build my website?

The timeline depends on your specific needs, but on average, most websites take between 3 to 6 weeks to complete. I’ll provide you with a detailed schedule before we begin so you’ll know exactly what to expect.

Will I be able to edit my website after it’s built?

Yes! I build websites with you in mind, so you’ll be able to manage and update your content as needed. I’ll walk you through how to use your website’s CMS (Content Management System) if required.

What makes you different from other web designers?

I take a personalized approach, focusing on what your business truly needs and making sure your website reflects your vision and goals. It’s not just about making something look good — I aim to ensure it performs and supports your growth in the long term.

Do you provide these services individually?

Yes! If your needs require only one of the steps, I am happy to use those specific skill sets to help you reach your goal.
