Site Design

If you prefer to leave the website design to me, that’s fine. My preference is to use one of the website builders discussed on this site, but there are other options. This page shows some examples of my websites designed using a variety of platforms.

Let me manage your project

Hiring a web designer is a more expensive option than Free Advice or a Helping Hand, but doesn't have to break the bank. I work with trusted platforms which provide hosting packages to suit most budgetary needs.

Give me an idea of what you want, show me examples of websites you like, and I'll create a design for you. Once the project is up and running, you can amend the content or leave it to me. Check out some of my work below.

Property Maintenance

Website for a local business operating gutter-clearing services. Another Hostinger Website Builder site. I also provided flyers and business cards designed in Canva.

A gift from my sister and her friends for their trusted equine practitioner. Built with Hostinger Website Builder, which is becoming my go-to for new websites.

Street and Travel Photographer

A collaborative effort with a travel and street photographer who wanted to upgrade his website to include online sales. Squarespace is favoured by artists, collaboration is easy, and e-commerce works well.

Online shop designed for a local artist to display and sell his artwork and books. Created with the excellent and very reasonably priced Hostinger Website Builder.

New website to replace an old workhorse previously hosted by one of the telecom companies. Squarespace templates appealed to the customer, in particular those using earthy colours.
