WEB DESign Service

A Content Management System, or CMS for short, gives you a user-friendly playground to publish, edit, and organise your website content without needing a PhD in tech.

Having worked across various content management systems (CMS), I work exclusively with WordPress, Shopify, and Squarespace. Why? Well, WordPress is the most popular for one, Squarespace for its SEO capabilities + design features and Shopify for its e-commerce.

Each has its benefits, and depending on your project's requirements, I'll suggest the best CMS that aligns with your website's short and long-term goals.

A well-designed website is more than just an aesthetically pleasing interface. It's a harmonious amalgamation of several key elements that work collaboratively:

Layout and Navigation: It's all about unravelling the users' journey and weaving together the different strands of your site to create a seamless experience from entry to the ultimate destination of purchase or inquiry.

Typography: Carefully chosen typography isn't merely about aesthetics, readability and user experience. It's about establishing your brand's tone.

Written content: Crucial for informing and captivating your target audience to establish trust and persuade visitors to take a desired action. Additionally, search engines prioritise relevant, valuable, and unique content, helping drive your site up the search engine rankings.

Colour scheme: Your website's colour scheme is crucial for creating a first impression, setting the mood, and influencing your visitors' perceptions and decisions.

Animations: the "it" factor of modern web design - From micro-interactions and parallax scrolling to hover, loading, slideshow, and transition animations to create depth and enhance the user experience.

Responsiveness: It is essential to have a responsive website in 2024 across various devices, which requires creating four versions of your site in one to ensure a seamless experience across desktops, laptops, tablets, and mobile phones.

Speed: The difference between a bounce and a conversion. Images and videos are compressed, and your site's HTML, CSS, and JavaScript are given good ol' minify makeover.

Search Engine Optimisation: As a SEO expert based in London, your site won't just be visually appealing but destined to cut through the noise and make an impact on search engines.

This list is in no way comprehensive. Designing a website involves juggling multiple elements. But hey, you get the gist!

If you'd like me to dive deeper into my web design process, let's have a chat.

Putting a price tag on a website is like asking, 'How long is a piece of string?' Each project is unique, with its own specific requirements.

Are you seeking a simple landing page? Or a website with multiple pages to showcase your services? Or are you seeking a comprehensive e-commerce web design service with all the bells and whistles?

Additionally, the pricing will depend on the complexity of the site, the amount of content, custom-built features, and any additional services such as website content writing.

My web design services start from around £1000.00. But remember, it's about investing in a quality website that will pay dividends further down the line.

If you have a budget in mind, let's chat budgets over a cup of virtual coffee to discuss the scope of possibilities within your budget to ensure we are working together on your priorities.

In 2023, a whopping 55% of website traffic comes from mobile devices. So, in today's ever-evolving digital world, a mobile-friendly website is more than just an add-on. It's a necessity.

Rest assured, your website will be optimised to ensure a seamless experience across desktops, laptops, iPads, and mobile screens.

Every project is unique, and every brief has its own set of requirements.

However, on average, a basic website can typically take 2 to 4 weeks, while a fully operational E-commerce website can take up to 6 weeks.

Good things take time, and a meticulously designed website is no exception!

So sit back, relax, enjoy the journey and let the magic happen! 😉✨

SEO is integrated into every step of my web design process to guarantee your site isn't just visually appealing but destined to cut through the noise and make an impact on search engines. Because let's face it, what's the point of a new website that isn't going to draw in new business?

After a thorough discussion outlining your website goals and design preferences, I'll dive headfirst into your brand's world, conducting comprehensive research into your industry, competitors and keywords + phrases your target audience is typing into the search bars. With this information, I will create a well-rounded SEO strategy that I'll seamlessly integrate into the design process of your website to guarantee your site has a solid foundation to climb the search engine rankings.

However, it's essential to remember search engine optimisation is an ongoing process, which is why I provide a range of affordable SEO services to drive your site up the search engine rankings!

Absolutely, yes!

After all, it's your digital abode.

All websites are custom-coded on content management systems like WordPress, Shopify or Squarespace so you get the best of both worlds: a unique website whilst still having the ability to make changes yourself.
