Web Design

Affordable websites at agency quality

My freelance web design service is a great option for businesses and individuals looking to create a professional online presence without the expense of hiring a full-time in-house team. I offer a personal service with you working one on one with me and collaboratively.

I specialise in creating websites using WordPress, which is the most widely used Content Management System. Its flexibility, strong support community, and user-friendly interface for editing content make it a top choice. As a freelance web designer and developer, I take on any project with confidence, whether it’s a basic landing page, a brochure site, or a complex e-commerce platform. I ensure that all my designs and developments are up-to-date with the latest web technologies and user experience principles. I prioritize user experience in all my projects, resulting in visually appealing designs that make it easy for users to navigate and complete their desired actions.

  • Fully responsive
  • Bespoke design
  • User friendly
  • Fast hosting

STAGES OF WEB DESIGN

My Process

Phase 1
Discovery
I want to know all about your business. The discovery phase is where I will ask you a lot of questions and your website goals, target audience and the purpose of your website, ie what do you want the user to be doing – call you, make a purchase, book a service etc. I will also figure out what key functionality is required for example will you need a contact form, a booking system, being able to take payments online? I will also ask for samples of websites you like and dislike. Once all this information is compiled, we can finalise what pages you will need and the websites sitemap.
Phase 1
Phase 1
Collection
At this stage after discovery, I will collect any imagery or content you want to be included on your website ie your logo, products imagery or workplace etc. You might have existing testimonials you want included. Those are a few examples and if you don’t have an existing logo, I offer this as a service to. I will also gather any suitable stock imagery /graphics for your website that goes with your business and the target audience in mind.
Phase 1
Phase 1
Creative
This is where I will create a homepage mock up and 1 inner page of your website. Here I will compile suitable fonts/typography, colour palettes and imagery that fit your brand. I will present this to you, and I will ask for your feedback and if you have any changes. Once the initial design is signed off by you, I will enter the build phase. Reason being as making changes to the prototype is a lot quicker then when it is a functioning site.
Phase 1
Phase 2
Build
I start building the website designs you signed off on into a functioning website including both its front-end (user interface) and back-end (server-side) functionality. I will integrate any 3rd party plugins you may require ie social media integration, google analytic, payment processing etc. I optimize the site for seo with meta descriptions and relevant titles etc.
Phase 2
Phase 2
Test
After completing the website build, I will test the website on various devices. Test any forms that might be on the website such as contact forms, subscribe forms, payment form etc and make sure that any bugs are fixed.
Phase 2
Phase 3
Live!
Time to celebrate! You go live! I will then submit your website's sitemap to google search console to be indexed. I give you access to any logins you need to the website, google analytics etc. I will also provide you with support and videos in how you can edit your site yourself.
Phase 3

FREQUENCTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Have a question?

This is a frequently asked question with a complex answer. The cost of a website varies greatly based on the specific requirements of each client and project. I cannot provide a cost estimate until I have a clear understanding of the desired outcome. Once I have that information, I’ll provide a transparent, non-binding quote. As a rough estimate, my custom websites typically start around €1,000.

This is another common inquiry with a varying answer based on the project specifications. The timeline for completion can range from a few weeks to a few months. After our project consultation, I will provide a more accurate estimate of the duration.

All my website builds are fully responsive, ensuring optimal viewing on any device, including mobile phones and tablets.

For graphics I use the Adobe Creative Suite and figma. For the website development I use WordPress
