What I Do
You know you need a website but don’t know where to start? You’re not alone — I’ve eased over 150 businesses through the process, explaining the jargon as we go.
 | Web Design | Brochure sites, complex e-commerce and information-rich sites — built to look right on laptops, tablets and phones, with a message your customers will actually get. |
 | Web Hosting | UK-based servers from certified Green Web companies. I set everything up, keep software updated and secure, and I’m there when something needs doing. |
 | Web & domain rescue | Designer gone AWOL? Server shut down? I’ve rescued dozens of businesses from website oblivion — it’s how this business started twenty years ago. |
 | Email setup | Professional email at your own domain, working properly on every device — or help configuring email hosted elsewhere. |
 | Ongoing care & advice | No hand-over-and-scarper here. Sites I host are monitored and kept up to date, content changes get done quickly — and honest computer advice comes free with the conversation. |
// THE ROUTE
From "we need a website" to a site that's live and looked after
Whatever the size of your business, the approach is the same. Here’s the route, waypoint by waypoint.
Work out what the site is for
Why you need a website, what it should do for your business, and what you want visitors to do once they're there.
Get the message and pictures right
The story your site should tell, and the images and graphics that will tell it properly. A photo speaks a thousand words — and who's reading a thousand words anyway?
Agree timescales and a fair price
A schedule that suits you, a price that's fair to us both, and a clear plan for support after launch.
Build and launch
You get a shiny new website we're both pleased with — tested across laptops, tablets and phones.
Monitored, updated, supported
Once live, I keep your site monitored, updated and secure. The route doesn't end at launch.
