How I work
First call to live site in 3–7 days
You always know what's happening, what it costs, and what's next. Here's the whole thing, step by step.
- 01
Discovery call
20 minutesA straight conversation about your business, your customers, and what the current site isn't doing. No pitch — we're working out whether I'm the right fit.
- Rough scope
- Timeline estimate
- Follow-up email
- 02
Brief and price
2–3 daysA plain-English brief: every page, every feature, the dates, and one fixed price. You read it, we adjust it, then we both sign it. That number doesn't move.
- Written brief
- Fixed price
- Delivery schedule
- 03
Design
1–2 daysI design the real pages in your colours and tone — desktop and mobile. You give feedback in one place. Two rounds is normally all it takes.
- Homepage design
- Inner pages
- Mobile layouts
- 04
Build
2–3 daysApproved designs become a fast, responsive site. You get a live preview link from day one and can watch it come together, tested across browsers and real devices.
- Preview link
- Content in place
- Cross-browser tested
- 05
Launch
1 dayDomain, HTTPS, redirects, analytics and Search Console — all set up and checked. Nothing goes live half-finished.
- Domain and SSL
- Analytics live
- Search Console verified
- 06
Handover
OngoingYou get the code, the accounts and a short walkthrough. Keep me on for changes and hosting, or take it and run — either is fine.
- Code and accounts
- Walkthrough call
- Optional care plan
Common questions
- What do you need from me?
- Your logo if you have one, any photos worth using, and half an hour of your time for the call and design feedback. If the words aren't written, I'll draft them and you correct me.
- What happens after I get in touch?
- I reply within one working day with a few initial thoughts and a link to book a 20-minute call. After that you get the written brief and fixed price — usually within three days.
- Who do you work with?
- Businesses and founders who sell something they're proud of: trades, hospitality, retail, salons, coaches, consultants. Anywhere in the UK, and further if the timezone works.
- What if I want changes later?
- Small edits are included for the first month. After that, either take a care plan or pay by the hour — your call, and you always own the site either way.
