Bespoke web design for businesses needing a new website
Don't settle for an off-the-shelf, templated website. Create a website designed specifically for your business and brand.
Many businesses settle for a templated website thinking that's all they need. They then wonder why their competitors' websites outperform their's.
When you create a bespoke website, you ensure it fits both your brand and the needs of your customers. Your business is not generic, so don't shoehorn it into a generic website template.
With every bespoke website build, I take the time to understand your customers, goals, and values to design a site bespoke to your business needs.

Frequently Asked Questions about Bespoke Website Build projects
Who is this for?
This is for any business looking to build (or rebuild) a website for their business.
For businesses with an existing website, a rebuild is often not required. If you simply want to redesign your website and give it a fresh look, my Design Tune-up service has you covered.
Why hire me instead of using AI or DIY website builders?
AI and DIY website builders rely heavily on templates and generic designs. I don't use templates and create completely unique designs bespoke to your business.
Can I help with setting up domains, hosting, or emails?
I am happy to offer my opinion on the best way to set up your website infrastructure but it is not something I will set up for you. I will point you in the direction of where to set these things up but ultimately, it is worth you doing it yourself so that you have full ownership of your website assets and are not reliant on me.
What happens after the site launches?
After we launch your new website, I will make sure you are fully aware of how to manage and update your website. I offer maintenance and support contracts billed hourly where I regularly check the health of your website and make sure it is functioning properly.
Who owns the website once it is finished?
I encourage all my clients to have full control of their domain registration and hosting. I have met many business owners coming to me from a different developer who do not know how to access their hosting or domain registration and are completely stuck as a result. Given what a valuable asset it can be for your business, my intention is to build your website and leave you with full control of it for the future.
How do I ensure the design matches your brand and goals?
If you have brand guidelines, I am more than happy to work within them (it actually makes my job easier). If you don’t have brand guidelines, we still spend a good amount of time discussing your brand and talking about what your website should look and sound like. Beyond that, you have full oversight throughout the project with regular opportunities to provide feedback and ensure we stay on track to deliver the perfect digital embodiment of your business.
What platforms do I build on?
For most websites, I find WordPress to be the best option. I find it is the platform that most people are familiar with or can learn quickly. It is quick and easy to setup for both templated and bespoke designs.
WordPress is not always the best option for certain websites. If it is not, I will offer my advice on the best platform choice. I have built websites for many businesses on many different platforms so I can always adapt for your business’ best option.
Are there any hidden costs?
I am as upfront about costs as possible. I include costs for things like stock footage and staging site hosting in my fees. If any additional costs are required by the project, I will make you aware of them as early as possible and always look to find you a free alternative in case your budget does not allow for extra costs.
In terms of ongoing website costs you should be aware of, your website domain requires ongoing registration fees that are usually paid annually. There are often monthly hosting fees to consider as well. If you are unsure about what to do, I will advise you on your best course of action for free as part of my service.

Register your interestBespoke Website Build case study: Paul Cooney
In 2023, Paul Cooney launched his independent real estate business. He came to me in August with a view to launching in October. The turnaround was tight but we were both determined to make it work.
Paul understood exactly the brand he wanted to build. The way he conducts his business is different from most real estate agents and he wanted to communicate that through his website. The design was both minimal and bold. Everything on the site earns it's place with no fluff, just like Paul's business style.
I built everything on Paul's website to meet his unique business needs. From his CRM integration to his personalised West London Gallery to showcase his favourite part of the world. It is a digital extension of Paul, just as a website should be for every business.
