Now taking on first clients

Websites built properly for small businesses.

I'm an independent web developer helping trades and local services look as good online as they are at their work. Clear design, fast code, and a fixed price agreed up front.

Concept work

Four fictional businesses, each designed and built as a demonstration of what I can make for real ones. None of these brands exist.

A project-led site for a builder, where finished work does the selling through a filterable gallery.

Gloss & Co Detailing

A premium booking-led site for a mobile car detailer, with package comparison and a simple booking request.

What I can build for you

  • Website design

    A clear visual identity for your site: layout, typography and colour chosen around your customers, not a template.

  • Website development

    Hand-built, fast-loading code using modern, well-supported tools. No page builders slowing things down.

  • Responsive websites

    Most local searches happen on a phone. Every page is designed to work properly on any screen, from small phones to wide monitors.

  • Business websites

    A complete multi-page site that explains what you do, shows your work and makes it easy to get in touch.

  • Landing pages

    A single focused page for one service, offer or campaign, built to turn visitors into enquiries.

  • Website maintenance

    Ongoing care after launch: updates, small content changes and checks that everything still works.

How a project works

Five steps from first message to launch. Most small business sites take three to five weeks.

  1. Free chat

    A short call or email exchange about your business, your customers and what the site needs to do.

  2. Plan and quote

    A written plan listing pages, features and a fixed price, so you know the cost before anything starts.

  3. Design

    Page designs you can review on your phone and computer, with two rounds of changes included.

  4. Build and test

    The site is built, checked on different devices and browsers, and shared with you on a preview link.

  5. Launch

    Your domain is connected, search engines are notified, and you get a short guide to your new site.

New, independent, and focused on doing it right.

I'm starting out, and I'm upfront about it. What you get in return is time, attention and introductory prices while I build a portfolio of real client work.
