New Website Design

A Website Built to Bring In Customers, Not Just Look Nice

Small business website design on WordPress, with the words written for you and SEO built in from day one.

Maybe you don't have a website yet. Maybe you built one yourself over a weekend, or a relative made it for you years ago. Either way, you need a site that tells people what you do, shows up on Google and makes it easy to contact you. That's what I build.

Who it's for

Is This You?

No website yet

You're tired of telling people to "just look us up on Facebook."

Built it yourself

You used a website builder, and you know it isn't pulling its weight.

A favor from a relative

A friend or relative made it for you, and now nobody knows how to change it.

Outgrown it

You've outgrown a one-page site, and you need room for your services, reviews and service area.

Built for phones first, because that's where most of your visitors are
SEO set up from day one: the right words, page titles and structure

You own it. Your site, your domain, your content.

The platform

Why I Build on WordPress

You own it.

With most website builders, you're renting. Stop paying and your site is gone. A WordPress site is yours.

It grows with you.

Add an online store, booking, a blog or new services later without starting over.

It's built for SEO.

Full control over the things Google looks at.

Help is everywhere.

WordPress runs a huge share of the web, so you're never stuck with one company or one person.

Is WordPress right for everyone? Not always. If a simpler setup fits your business better, I'll tell you.
