Services/Custom Websites
Custom websites, designed and built from scratch.
A website designed around your brand, your customers and what you need it to do, for when a template or a seven-page site won't cover it.

Built around your business, not a template.
Template websites are quick, but they all end up looking the same. Your business isn't the same as the one down the road, so your website shouldn't be either.
I design and build custom websites from the ground up. The layout, the pages and the details are worked out around your brand, the people you're trying to reach and what you need the site to do for you.
What I build with
- React, Vue.js, or plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript
- WordPress for content-heavy sites
- Node.js and Python backends
- PostgreSQL and MySQL databases
- AWS, Vercel or traditional hosting
- Version control and automated deployment
Chosen for performance, security and how easy the site is to look after in the long run.
What's in a custom build.
Every custom site comes with the essentials done properly, then gets shaped around your brief.
Original design
A design made for your brand from a blank page. No templates and no shortcuts.
Works on every screen
Layouts for phones, tablets and desktops, so visitors get a proper experience on any device.
Fast loading
Optimised code and smart caching, so pages load in seconds.
Security handled
SSL certificates and regular updates, with security taken care of as part of the build.
Analytics
See who visits your site, where they come from and what they do once they're there.
Edit it yourself
Make your own changes through a simple admin panel. No coding needed.
How a custom build runs.
You see the design before any code is written, and you get updates the whole way through.
Discovery
I learn about your business, your competitors and what makes you different.
Design
You see mockups and give feedback before I write any code.
Development
I build the site with regular progress updates and review sessions.
Launch
The site goes live after full testing, with training and ongoing support.
Custom build or Business Starter?
Not every business needs a custom site. Here's how to tell which one fits.
Business Starter
Up to seven pages, a fixed $1,500 and live in 7 business days. Right for most small businesses that need to look professional and be easy to contact. See Business Starter
Custom build
For more pages, an original design, an admin panel you update yourself, or features a seven-page site can't do. Quoted once I understand the brief.
Selling online
If the main job of the site is taking orders and payments, start with an online store instead. See E-commerce
