Every website I build follows the same straightforward process — no jargon, no mystery, no drawn-out timelines.
1. Discovery Call
It starts with a free call or meeting. I’ll ask about your business, your customers, what’s working and what isn’t, and what you actually need your website to do. If you’re based anywhere in West Sussex, I’m happy to meet locally or jump on a video call — whatever works for you. For businesses in Brighton, you’re welcome to visit my studio. For everywhere else across West Sussex, video calls work perfectly. By the end, you’ll have a clear idea of scope, timeline, and cost.
2. Design
I create a custom design mockup so you can see exactly what your site will look like before I build it. No generic templates — everything is designed around your brand, your content, and your audience. If you need branding or logo design as part of the project, I handle that first so your website has a solid visual foundation.
3. Build and SEO Setup
Once the design is approved, I build your site on WordPress — custom-coded, mobile responsive, and fast. Every page gets SEO setup from day one: page titles, meta descriptions, local keyword targeting, Google Business Profile optimisation, and technical foundations that give you the best chance of ranking for searches in your area across West Sussex.
4. Launch and Training
Before going live, I test everything across iPhone, Android, tablet, and desktop. On launch day, you get a training session so you can update your own content without needing to call me. I include 30 days of post-launch support as standard, and ongoing hosting and maintenance is available from £10/month if you want it.
The whole process typically takes 2-4 weeks for a standard site, or 4-8 weeks for larger projects with ecommerce or complex functionality.
