Spencer & Yogi, Podium DesignIf you've been looking for a freelance web designer in Felpham, that's exactly what you get with me — one person from first call to handover, no account managers and no ticket queue. Felpham is a small village, so most of my clients here need a site that competes for customers well beyond it. Already have a site that just needs looking after? See WordPress support in Felpham.
Talk it through → Why it matters
A web designer who actually knows Felpham
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 Felpham 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.
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 answers the phone.
Felpham is a village where word of mouth carries a lot of weight, and where a small independent trading next to Bognor Regis has to look every bit as capable online as a much bigger firm down the road. A generic template rarely does that. 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
A designer you can actually get hold of, not a call centre
You can see examples of the kind of work I do for businesses like yours in my portfolio, or read what I've been writing about design and search on the blog.
Local knowledge
The kinds of Felpham businesses I build for
Felpham is a largely residential seaside village on the coast, joined onto Bognor Regis and best known as the home of the poet William Blake, whose Blake's Cottage still stands here. Its trade is small and independent — seafront businesses, shops along Felpham Road, local trades and services — and each one needs a different kind of website.
Independent shops and services
The shops, salons, cafés and small services along Felpham Road and out towards Flansham live or die on the map pack. Opening hours, honest photographs of the actual premises and a phone number people can tap matter far more than a clever homepage animation.
Local trades and contractors
If you're a builder, electrician, plumber, gardener or decorator based in Felpham, your work runs through Middleton-on-Sea, Aldwick, North Bersted, Elmer and into Bognor Regis. That needs proper service-area pages, not one line listing place names.
Seafront and leisure
The seafront, the beach and Felpham Sailing Club draw visitors through the summer. Holiday lets, clubs, instructors and hospitality businesses here need a booking route that works from a phone, and pages that hold up when the season sends traffic up.
Care and services for residents
Felpham has a settled, largely retiree community, and a lot of the businesses here serve it — home care, mobility, gardening, domestic help and health services. Those sites need to be plain, legible and easy to use on any device, for any age.
Professional and home-based firms
Plenty of consultants, therapists, tradespeople and one-person firms run from home in and around the village. Up against bigger names in Bognor Regis and Chichester, the website has to look every bit as considered as theirs, and load just as quickly.
Makers and sell-online brands
A village this size can only support so much passing trade, so a lot of small producers and makers here need to sell beyond it. An online shop lets that reach go well past Felpham without losing the local story behind it.
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 Felpham businesses
Custom-built, not pulled from a template. Every site reflects your business, your services and the part of the village or coast 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 seafront café, a local trade or a home-based consultant, 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.
Local SEO for Felpham
Every site includes SEO setup targeting the village and the coast around it. I'll optimise your pages for searches ending in "Felpham", set up your Google Business Profile, build local citations and make sure you show up when someone nearby searches for what you do. In a small village, being the one who appears in the map pack matters.
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. For a maker or small shop in Felpham, an online store is the way to reach customers well beyond the village.
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.

More on how I build them on my WordPress web design page. If your site is already built and just needs looking after, see WordPress support in Felpham.
All of it included as standard. Fixed price, no retainer.

Towns I cover nearby
Because Felpham is a small village, almost every business I work with here sells into the towns around it — Bognor Regis right next door, Littlehampton and Arundel to the east, Chichester to the west, and Worthing and Brighton along the coast. 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 coffee
You tell me about your business, the customers you want to reach and what the website needs to do. Over Zoom, or in person in Felpham if that's easier.
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 Felpham and nearby, 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.

Get a free quoteAre you based in Felpham?
I'm based in Brighton and I regularly work with clients in Felpham. Most communication happens over Zoom and email, but I'm always happy to meet face to face at your premises or over a coffee near the seafront. 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 Felpham 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 in a seaside village where people are often looking things up on the go. 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 for the summer season — all without calling me. I'll train you during handover so you feel confident managing it yourself.
Do you offer SEO for Felpham 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 searches for what you do in and around Felpham, you're the one they find.
Do you cover Middleton-on-Sea, Aldwick and the surrounding area?
Yes. Most Felpham businesses I work with sell well beyond the village itself, so I build service-area pages covering the places you actually go: Middleton-on-Sea, Aldwick, North Bersted, Elmer, Flansham and into Bognor Regis. That's how a trade based in Felpham ends up ranking for work a few miles up the coast.
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 in Felpham. 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 Felpham?
Yes. If you're elsewhere in West Sussex or further afield, I also work with businesses in Bognor Regis, Chichester, Littlehampton, Arundel, Worthing and Brighton.
