Already have a website?
A fresh start for your existing website.
If your current website is outdated, difficult to use or no longer reflects your business, I can rebuild it on Squarespace. We'll review what is worth keeping and what needs changing, then plan the new website around your goals.
Start with the free website check →Someone to call when you need help.
Website management is from $249 per month on a 12 month term, then continues month to month if you choose. I take care of your changes and updates, keep an eye on your website's speed, health, content and SEO using Google data, and send you a monthly report of what I did and what I found. One off help is available at $150 per hour, with a 1 hour minimum.
Website management doesn't include daily inbox management, reception, bookkeeping, social media management or other virtual assistant services.
Ask about website management →A platform you can actually manage.
I build on Squarespace because it's a practical option for many small service businesses, with professional design, reliable hosting and tools you can manage without being a developer.
Secure hosting
Hosting, SSL and core platform maintenance are handled by Squarespace.
Easy content updates
You can update ordinary text, images and pages without needing to understand code.
Mobile friendly
Your website is designed and checked for phones, tablets and desktop screens.
Built-in tools
Forms, scheduling, online selling and marketing tools are available depending on your plan and setup.
Fewer maintenance tasks
No separate WordPress plugin updates or server maintenance to organise.
Room to grow
Start with what your business needs now and add suitable features later.
When Squarespace isn't the right fit: If your business needs a complex online store, advanced custom functionality or specialist integrations, another platform may be more suitable. I'll discuss that with you before recommending a build.
Clear expectations. No unnecessary complications.
Clear pricing.
Your proposal sets out what's included. Any additional work is discussed and approved before it begins.
A clear process.
You'll know what stage we're at, what's needed from you and what happens next.
Your accounts stay yours.
Your website and third-party accounts are set up under your ownership, with appropriate access and handover.
Support without dependency.
You'll receive guidance on managing your website, with optional help available when you need it.
It starts with understanding your business.
Every project begins with a detailed Client Website Workbook. It's how I learn about your business, your customers, your services and what you want your website to achieve.
You don't need to know all the answers before enquiring. I'll help you identify what needs to be decided, and we'll agree on any additional content or branding work before the build begins.
You don't need to have it all figured out.
