87% of UK small businesses are online – and 84% say their website plays a significant role in their business

Can you say the same about yours? If your website feels out of date or isn’t bringing in leads, I can help. I design strategic, SEO-optimised websites for small businesses that don’t just look good – they attract the right people and turn them into paying customers.

“Since my new website went live, I’ve had regular enquiries from new customers. It’s highlighted the difference between having a website, and having an SEO-optimised website!”

What Makes My Small Business Websites Different?

Strategic

Before anything we discuss, via Zoom, where your business is, where you want to be and the best ways of reaching your goals. What is it you want this website to do for you.

WordPress – so scalable

A website that can grow with you as your business grows. New pages and updated features and functionality can be added when needed, rather than starting all over again.

Keyword Research

What do your ideal clients put into Google, Bing, Chat GPT etc etc when they are looking for a business like yours? And do you have a chance of ranking for these terms?

Always Mobile Responsive

Around 65% of people visit websites from their mobile phones so you website must be as engaging and as effective on mobile as it is on a large screen.

Effective SEO

That’s effective technical SEO, correct onpage SEO (including making sure your site is quick to load) and guidance to start you off on your ongoing SEO journey (blogs, back links etc)

Easy to update & maintain

You’ll be able to make changes and updates to your website whenever you want or need to. I’ll send you a complete walkthrough video showing you how.

Not just a website – a tool to grow your business

I don’t ‘just’ build websites. I create powerful, SEO-optimised platforms that help small businesses grow, attract the right customers, and build trust online.
Your website should do more than sit pretty. It should work hard for you, every day.
