Your Digital Foundation for Success

In today’s digital age, having a strong online presence is vital for small businesses to thrive. Are you looking for a tailored and professionally crafted WordPress website that captures your brand’s essence and drives meaningful results? Look no further! I am a WordPress website designer that offers services to empower businesses like yours with a solid digital foundation.

BESPOKE WEBSITE TO HELP YOUR COMPANY STAND OUT

A small business web designer working independently and focusing on providing website  and graphic design for SMEs.

With over 20 years’ experience in the industry, I understand the frustration and pressure to succeed for small businesses and start-up. Handling every aspect of your business is no easy feat. Taking the steep learning curve of website design and digital marketing is one aspect I can help with.

Internet searches for a web designer can leave many people feeling frustrated as so many talk in technical language which those outside of the industry may not understand.

Technical language is needed in the world of web design and digital marketing, but don’t worry, you don’t have to be fluent, I will explain all you need to know. Like everything, it’s all a learning curve.

Fast Loading and Mobile Friendly

Do you find it frustrating when a website takes time to load? Your customers will do too and click away from your website to seek out your competitors losing you sales.

I build fast loading websites that are also mobile and tablet friendly helping you to keep your brand consistent.

WordPress Driven

WordPress is the best option for small business website design. It is the backbone of your website, a content management system referred to as a CMS. (Abbreviations are commonly used for many systems in the world of websites and design). It is user friendly software that gives you the option to easily update your website yourself.

With similar options to Microsoft Word, most customers easily adapt to making changes to text and adding blogs. WordPress now powers over 455 million websites, that’s 35% of all websites on the internet. Proving it is the most popular and powerful website management system around.

I offer online training for individuals and groups giving you the option to take control of your website.

Website Design for Small Business

Website Copywriting

We all have our skills; we can’t be good at everything. Writing the words and content for some can be time consuming and difficult. I am a website and graphic designer, not a copywriter so I pass on my copywriting to a preferred supplier.

Search Engine Optimisation and Digital Marketing

Search engine optimisation (SEO) will help get your website found. The build, the words on your pages and the headings are all part of what helps get your website listed on google.

Your website will be submitted to Google along with a Google My Business listing as standard. Depending on your goals I am happy to discuss planning your SEO to help you reach the top of the search engines.  

SEO is one element of digital marketing; your social media, paid advertising and email capture are some other elements to consider. Contact me about my affordable digital marketing services.

Website Hosting

Fast, reliable servers host your small business website. With daily backups and updates your website will be in safe hands.

Website Design FAQ’s

Why is good website design important?

Good website design is crucial because it impacts the user experience, brand perception, and overall effectiveness of a website. A well-designed website can attract and retain visitors, convey professionalism, improve usability, and ultimately drive conversions and business growth.

How long does it take to design a website?

The time required to design a website can vary depending on factors such as project complexity, the number of pages, functionality requirements, and client feedback process. Simple websites can be designed in a matter of weeks, while more complex projects may take several months.

Do I need to have technical skills to maintain my website?

Not necessarily. Many websites today are built on content management systems (CMS) like WordPress, which provide user-friendly interfaces for updating and managing website content. However, some technical knowledge may be required for more advanced customisations or troubleshooting.

Can I update my website’s content myself?

Yes, with a CMS-based website, you can easily update and manage your website’s content without relying on a web designer. CMS platforms typically provide intuitive interfaces where you can add or edit text, images, videos, and other elements.

Will my website be mobile-friendly?

Yes, it is essential for modern websites to be mobile-friendly. Responsive web design ensures that your website adapts and looks great on various devices, including smartphones, tablets, and desktop computers. This helps provide an optimal user experience for visitors accessing your site from different devices.

How much does website design cost?

Of course you want to know up front how much your small business website will cost. As a small business web designer I am always clear about costs of a new website project up front. Keeping within the quoted budget is important to me and I will always let you know of any additional costs if you instruct any additional work.

Each small business website I design and build are different and require different aspects to achieve the desired results. Each quote is presented after discussion about your website project, but I can tell you that for the design and build*:

A micro site can cost between £800-£1500
An average brochure website is around £1500-£2999
E-commerce website are generally far more complex and can cost anything from £2999

These costs are an average of projects I have taken over the last year. If you require a quote please get in touch and I will be happy to give you a accurate quote.

*Costs do not include ongoing Search Engine Optimisation, copywriting or photography.
