I’m Spencer, a Brighton-based freelance web designer working with businesses in Epsom. Whether it’s a first website, a rebuild of something that has aged badly, or ongoing development on a site you already have, I build custom WordPress websites that look professional, work properly on a phone, and bring in real enquiries.
No agency fees. No templates. No monthly hostage contracts. Just a website built around your business by one person who answers the phone — a short run up the A23 and M25 whenever a face-to-face suits.

Talk it through → Why it matters
A web designer who understands Epsom
I’m Spencer — a Brighton-based freelance web designer and former British 800m Champion, now putting 10+ years of marketing experience into helping businesses in Epsom grow online. I’ve worked directly with 55+ businesses, from sole traders to established firms, and built 100+ WordPress websites along the way. More about how I work is on my about page.
Whether you need a simple brochure site, an online shop or a complete digital presence, I handle the whole process — design, development, SEO setup and launch. Everything is built on WordPress, so you can update it yourself without calling me every time a phone number changes.
Epsom is one of the best-known market towns in Surrey — a name recognised worldwide thanks to Epsom Downs Racecourse and the Derby, run here since 1780. Beyond the racing, it’s a busy commercial centre: a proper High Street, the Ashley Centre anchoring the retail core, a strong medical and health cluster around Epsom Hospital, and a population of professionals who commute to London Waterloo and Victoria in around 35 minutes. That mix of local trade and well-connected, digitally savvy residents is exactly why a properly built Epsom website earns its keep.
Most web design agencies charge for account managers, office overheads and layers of project management you’ll never benefit from. Working with me, you deal directly with the person designing and building the site — no middleman, no inflated quote, no being passed between departments. Plenty of my clients simply wanted a web designer who picks up the phone. What you get working with me instead of a larger agency:
Direct communication with the person building your site
Custom WordPress design, not a reskinned template
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
One designer accountable for the result, not a call centre
Everything I build is custom WordPress, owned outright by you. You can read what I’ve been writing about design and search on the blog.
Local knowledge
The kinds of Epsom businesses I build for
Epsom has an unusual trading mix — independents along the High Street and inside the Ashley Centre, professional and financial firms serving a commuter population, a real cluster of medical and health practices around Epsom Hospital, and a visitor economy built on the racecourse and Derby week. Each one needs a different website.
High Street and Ashley Centre retailers
Shops, cafés and independents along the High Street and inside the Ashley Centre live or die on the map pack. Opening hours, decent photographs of the actual shop and a phone number people can tap matter far more than a clever homepage animation.
Professional and financial services
Solicitors, accountants, surveyors and consultants serving Epsom’s commuter professionals are often up against London firms. The website has to look every bit as considered as theirs, and load just as quickly on a train home from Waterloo.
Medical and health practices
Epsom has a genuine health heritage — the town gave Epsom salts their name — and a strong cluster of practices around Epsom Hospital. Dentists, physios, clinics and consultants need clear service pages and practitioner profiles that build trust before the first call.
Hospitality and the racecourse trade
With Epsom Downs Racecourse and Derby week on the doorstep, pubs, restaurants and event businesses need bookings, menus that are easy to keep current, and pages that hold up when a race meeting sends traffic through the roof.
Trades covering the surrounds
If you’re a builder, electrician, plumber or landscaper based in Epsom, your patch runs out through Ewell, Ashtead, Stoneleigh, Tadworth, Banstead and Epsom Downs. That needs proper service-area pages, not one line listing place names.
Makers and independent brands
The independent scene in Epsom supports a lot of small producers, makers and community-minded businesses. An online shop lets that reach go well beyond the town centre without losing the local story.
Whichever of those you are, the build follows the same honest process: a fixed quote, a free mockup before you commit a penny, and a WordPress site you own outright at the end of it.

What I offer
Web design services for Epsom businesses
Custom-built, not pulled from a template. Every site reflects your business, your services and the part of Epsom or the surrounding area you actually work in.
Custom WordPress web design
Every website I build is custom-designed for your business — no templates, no cookie-cutter layouts. Whether you’re a High Street retailer, a healthcare practice near Epsom Hospital or a professional firm, I’ll create something that reflects your brand and makes it easy for customers to get in touch. Need branding too? I offer logo and identity work through my design service. Mobile responsive across all devices as standard.
Local SEO for Epsom
Every site includes SEO setup targeting the town. I’ll optimise your pages for searches ending in “Epsom”, set up your Google Business Profile, build local citations and make sure you show up when someone nearby searches for what you do. There’s genuine search demand here and less competition than London, so a properly optimised site pays off.
Ecommerce and online shops
Need to sell online? I build WooCommerce stores on WordPress — product catalogues, payment processing (Apple Pay, Google Pay, cards, PayPal), shipping configuration and stock management. The independent retail scene around the Ashley Centre is strong, and a shop extends your reach well beyond the town centre.
Hosting and ongoing support
I offer managed hosting from £10/month — security updates, backups, plugin updates and uptime monitoring — with care plans from £30/month if you’d like content changes handled too. Already have hosting? I can work with your existing setup. No mandatory fees holding your website hostage.
WordPress web design in Epsom
Every site I build for Epsom clients is a WordPress site. That means no monthly platform fees, full ownership of your content, and the freedom to change host or developer whenever you want. I can also keep your social media branding consistent with the site.
- Bespoke design built around your business
- No monthly website-builder subscription
- Straightforward editing, with a guide provided
- Room to add ecommerce or bookings later

All of it included as standard. Fixed price, no retainer.

Towns I cover nearby
Most of my Epsom clients also sell into the towns around them — Leatherhead and Ashtead just south, Reigate to the east, Woking and Camberley to the west, and Horley down towards Gatwick. If you’d like a page targeting one of those as well, here’s where each one lives:
The process
Steps I take to ensure a smooth process
Four stages, from that first conversation to a website you can run yourself.
First
Initial call or meeting
You tell me about your business, the customers you want to reach and what the website needs to do. Over Zoom, or in person if you’d prefer to meet in Epsom or at my Brighton office.
Then
Quote and mockup
Fixed price, no surprises. I’ll create a free mockup so you can see the direction before committing a penny.
After that
Design and build
I handle everything — design, content, local SEO setup for Epsom and the surrounding area, mobile testing. You’ll see progress and can give feedback throughout.
Finally
Handover
Your finished website plus full training, so you can edit it yourself. No mandatory monthly fees holding your site hostage.
FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Still unsure about something? Ask me directly — I answer every enquiry personally.
Get a free quoteAre you based in Epsom?
I’m based in Brighton, about 50 minutes from Epsom by car via the A23 and M25, and I’m happy to travel up for a meeting when it helps. Most communication happens over Zoom and email, but I’m always glad to meet face to face at your premises. My office is at Main Floor, Clarendon Mansions, 80 East St, Brighton BN1 1NF if you’d prefer to visit.
How much does a website cost?
Most Epsom 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 tailored to your needs.
How long does a website take to build?
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 that first conversation, before anything is agreed.
Will my website be mobile friendly?
Every website I build is fully responsive and tested across iPhone, Android, tablet and desktop. Over 70% of local searches happen on mobile, so the site has to work perfectly on a phone — which matters even more for a commuter town like Epsom, where a lot of people are searching on the train. If you want the detail, I’ve written about what responsive web design actually means.
Can I update the website myself?
Yes. I build on WordPress with an intuitive page builder. Add photos, update your services, change opening hours before Derby week — all without calling me. I’ll train you during handover so you feel confident managing it yourself.
Do you offer SEO for Epsom businesses?
Every site includes basic SEO setup — page titles, meta descriptions, local keyword targeting and Google Business Profile optimisation. For ongoing work such as content, citations and link building I offer monthly retainers from £250/month. The goal is simple: when someone in Epsom searches for what you do, you’re the one they find.
Do you cover Ewell, Ashtead and the surrounding area?
Yes. Most Epsom businesses I work with sell well beyond the town itself, so I build service-area pages covering the places you actually go: Ewell, Ashtead, Stoneleigh, Tadworth, Banstead and Epsom Downs. That’s how a trade based in Epsom ends up ranking for work a few miles out.
Can you take over a website someone else built?
Often, yes. If it’s already on WordPress I can usually adopt it, tidy it up and look after it from there — see WordPress support and care plans. If it’s stuck on a builder platform you’re renting, a rebuild usually costs less over two years than carrying on paying the subscription.
Do you work with businesses outside Epsom?
Yes. If you’re elsewhere in Surrey or further afield, I also work with businesses in Leatherhead, Reigate, Woking, Crawley and Brighton & Hove.
