I’m Spencer, a Brighton-based freelance web designer serving businesses across Eastbourne and East Sussex. I build custom WordPress websites that look professional, work on mobile, and generate real enquiries for your business.
No agency fees. No templates. Just a website built around your business by someone who’s a short drive along the A27.
I’m Spencer — a Brighton-based freelance web designer and former British 800m Champion, using 10+ years of marketing experience to help businesses across Eastbourne, Polegate, Hailsham, and East Sussex grow online. I’m based about 25 minutes from Eastbourne along the A27 and happy to meet locally.
Every website I build is custom-designed for your business — no templates, no cookie-cutter layouts. Whether you’re a retailer near The Beacon, a tourism operator on the seafront, or a professional services firm in Eastbourne town centre, I’ll create something that reflects your brand and makes it easy for customers to get in touch. Mobile responsive across all devices as standard.
Every site includes SEO setup targeting your local area. I’ll optimise your pages for searches like “[your service] Eastbourne”, set up your Google Business Profile, build local citations, and make sure your site shows up when people search for what you do in East Sussex. Eastbourne is a competitive town with established agencies — standing out online with the right web design Eastbourne strategy matters.
Need to sell products online? I build WooCommerce stores on WordPress — product catalogues, payment processing (Apple Pay, Google Pay, cards, PayPal), shipping configuration, and stock management. Whether you’re selling locally from Eastbourne or shipping nationwide, an ecommerce store extends your reach well beyond the town centre.
I offer managed hosting from £10/month — security updates, backups, plugin updates, uptime monitoring. Your site stays secure and online. Already have hosting? I can work with your existing setup. No mandatory monthly fees holding your website hostage.
Eastbourne has established web design agencies like Fountain Digital and BarkWeb — but not every business needs the overhead that comes with an agency. Working with me, you deal directly with the person designing and building your website. No account managers, no layers of project management.
I’m based in Brighton — about 25 minutes from Eastbourne along the A27. I regularly meet clients in Eastbourne, at their premises, or over Zoom. I know the local market and I’ve built websites for businesses across East Sussex.
What you get working with me vs a larger agency:
* Direct communication with the person building your site
* Custom WordPress design, not reskinned templates
* SEO built in from day one, not sold as an expensive add-on
* Fixed pricing with no hidden monthly fees
* Ongoing support when you need it — not a ticket queue

Whether you’re a startup, small business, or established company, I build websites for businesses of all sizes across Eastbourne and East Sussex.
I’m based in Brighton — about 25 minutes from Eastbourne along the A27. I regularly meet clients in Eastbourne, at their premises, or over Zoom. Most of my clients prefer video calls once we’ve met face to face initially, but I’m always happy to come to Eastbourne when needed. My studio is at Main Floor, Clarendon Mansions, 80 East St, Brighton BN1 1NF.
Most Eastbourne businesses invest between £800-£3,000 for a complete WordPress website. A simple 5-page brochure site starts from £800, while larger sites with ecommerce, booking systems, or complex functionality may be £2,000-£5,000+. Every project gets a fixed quote upfront — no hourly billing, no surprise invoices. Get in touch for a free quote.
A straightforward 5-page website typically takes 2-3 weeks. Larger sites with more pages, ecommerce, or complex features may take 4-8 weeks. I’ll give you a clear timeline during our initial conversation.
Every website I build is fully responsive and tested across iPhone, Android, tablet, and desktop. Over 70% of local searches happen on mobile — your site has to work perfectly on a phone.
Yes. I build on WordPress with an intuitive page builder. Add photos, update your services, change your contact details — all without calling me. I’ll train you during handover so you feel confident managing it yourself.
Every site includes basic SEO setup — page titles, meta descriptions, local keyword targeting, Google Business Profile optimisation. For ongoing SEO work (content creation, citation building, link building), I offer monthly retainers. My goal is to get you ranking for searches like “[your service] Eastbourne” and “[your service] East Sussex”.
Yes — I work with businesses across Sussex, including Lewes, Haywards Heath, Worthing, Shoreham-by-Sea, and Crawley. I also cover Polegate, Hailsham, Seaford, and Pevensey. Wherever you’re based in Sussex, I can help with web design, SEO, and ongoing support.
