Website design & build
A clean, professional website built around what your customers need to see before they call you.
I design, build and look after websites for small businesses. Fast, easy to find on Google, simple to update, and backed by a real person who answers when something needs fixing.
Web design & website maintenance for small businesses

- Fixed quotes before any work starts
- You own your website and domain
Services
Everything your website needs, from first draft to five years on
Most small businesses do not need a big agency. They need a website that looks professional, works on every phone, and does not fall apart the moment the person who built it stops answering emails. That is the gap I fill.

Why choose this studio
Why small businesses work with me

One person, start to finish
No account managers, no handing you off to a junior. The person you talk to is the person building your site.
-
Plain English, always
I explain what I am doing and why, without the jargon. You will always know what you are paying for.
-
Built to last, not just to launch
I build sites that are fast, secure and easy to maintain, and I stick around to keep them that way.

Website maintenance
Already have a website? I can look after it.
Plenty of small business websites are out of date, slow, or quietly broken, and the person who built them has moved on. I take over existing websites, fix what needs fixing, and keep them running smoothly every month.

Ask about the Care Plan
How much does a website cost?
It depends on how many pages you need and what the site has to do. The packages on the pricing page show typical starting points, and after a quick chat I will give you a fixed quote in writing. The price you agree to is the price you pay.
How long does it take to build a website?
Most small business websites take a few weeks from our first chat to launch. The biggest factor is usually content: once I have your wording and photos, things move quickly. Your proposal will include a realistic timeline.
Do I own my website?
Yes. Your domain is registered in your name, your content is yours, and you can take your website elsewhere at any time. I do not believe in locking clients in.
What does website maintenance actually cover?
Keeping your site secure and up to date, making regular backups, watching for downtime, and handling small changes like new photos, updated prices or opening hours. If something breaks, you message me and I fix it.
Can you fix or take over my existing website?
Yes. I can start with a check-up of your current site, tell you honestly what is worth keeping, and then fix, speed up or look after it. Sometimes a few fixes are all you need, and sometimes a rebuild makes more sense. I will tell you which.
What do I need to provide?
Your logo if you have one, any photos you would like to use, and the basics about your business and services. Do not worry if your wording is not polished. I can help shape it into clear, persuasive copy.
Ready for a website that works as hard as you do?
Tell me what you need. You will get honest advice and a clear, fixed quote, with no obligation and no hard sell.
