Overview

Websites that do a job

Most business websites are brochures that nobody reads. The ones that work are built around a single decision: what should a visitor do here, and what is stopping them? I start there, then build the site to make that path obvious and fast.

That means real engineering underneath — server-rendered pages so Google can index them, sensible data models so content is easy to edit, and a codebase you or another developer can pick up later without a rewrite.

If the site also needs to be found on Google, that's technical SEO work — and it's much cheaper to build in now than to retrofit later.

What I Offer

Web Development services

Business Websites

Marketing sites that load fast, read well on a phone, and give you a CMS you can actually use to edit content.

Web Applications

Dashboards, portals and internal tools with authentication, role-based access and real data behind them.

E-commerce Websites

Storefronts with cart, checkout, payments and inventory — custom-built or on Shopify, depending on what fits.

SaaS Platforms

Subscription products end to end: sign-ups, billing, usage limits, customer dashboards and an admin back office.

API Integrations

Connecting payments, CRMs, email and third-party services so your systems talk to each other without manual work.

Performance & Rebuilds

Taking a slow or legacy site and rebuilding it on a modern stack, keeping your content and search rankings intact.

Process

How the work gets done

Six stages, each with something you can see and sign off.

  1. 01

    Discovery

    We talk through your goals, audience and budget, and agree what the site has to achieve before any design starts.

  2. 02

    Planning

    I map the pages, content and data model, then give you a scope with a timeline and a fixed price.

  3. 03

    Design

    Wireframes and UI designs first, so you see exactly how it will look and can change things while it's still cheap.

  4. 04

    Development

    Frontend and backend built in reviewable milestones — you get a working link you can click through as it grows.

  5. 05

    Testing

    Cross-browser and cross-device testing, performance checks, and the edge cases: empty states, errors, slow networks.

  6. 06

    Launch

    Domain, hosting, SSL and analytics set up, then a handover walkthrough so you know how to run it.

Why Work With Me

What you actually get

One software engineer, not an agency layer. Direct communication, one person accountable, no budget spent on account managers.

One person accountable

Database to interface, I handle the whole stack myself. No handoffs between agencies, no gaps where things get lost.

Built to be maintained

Typed, structured code with real conventions. If you hire another developer in two years, they can read it.

Performance from the start

Server rendering, image optimisation and sensible bundles are part of the build, not a cleanup task afterwards.

Straight answers on time and cost

If something will take three weeks, I say three weeks. If a feature isn't worth building, I'll tell you that too.

Responsive by default

Every layout is designed mobile-first and tested on real screen sizes, not just resized in a browser.

Remote, worldwide

I work with clients across time zones with clear written updates, so you always know where the project stands.

FAQ

Common questions.

The things clients ask most before starting a web development project. Anything not covered here, just ask.

It depends on scope — a marketing site with a handful of pages is very different from a web app with accounts and payments. After a short call I give you a fixed price for an agreed scope, so there are no surprises mid-build.

A straightforward business site is usually a few weeks. Web applications and SaaS products take longer because of the backend work. You get an estimate with the scope, and milestone updates so you can see progress.

I can handle both. If you already have designs or a brand kit, I'll build to them. If not, I do wireframes and UI design as part of the project so you approve the look before development starts.

Yes. Where it makes sense I build a simple admin area or wire up a CMS so you can edit text, images and posts without touching code. I walk you through it at handover.

You own the code and the accounts. I offer ongoing support and maintenance if you want it — fixes, improvements and updates — but you're never locked in.

Yes, and it's a common request. I've migrated sites from WordPress to modern stacks before, keeping the content and URL structure so existing search rankings carry over.
