Smart, Tailored Websites to Elevate Your Brand

In today’s digital age, having a professional and engaging online presence is essential for organisations of all sizes. Whether you’re a startup, an established business, or a personal brand, your website is often the first impression you make on potential clients. That’s why it’s important to get it right! I specialise in designing and building smart, stylish, and user-friendly websites using three leading platforms—WordPress, Squarespace, and HubSpot.

By offering a range of solutions, I can ensure your website is tailored to your specific needs, budget, and goals. Whether you're looking for a sleek business portfolio, an eCommerce site, or an engaging blog, I can provide the right platform to make your vision a reality.

Why Choose Me?

  • Personalised Service: As a freelancer, I pride myself on delivering a one-on-one service. I work closely with you to ensure every aspect of your website aligns with your brand’s vision and goals.
  • Platform Expertise: I have in-depth experience working with WordPress, Squarespace, and HubSpot, allowing me to recommend the best option based on your needs.
  • Complete Solutions: From initial design concepts to the final launch and ongoing hosting, I offer end-to-end website solutions.
  • Affordable and Transparent Pricing: No hidden fees or surprises—just a clear breakdown of costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

Let me walk you through what I offer on each platform and how I can help your business shine online.

WordPress: Power, Flexibility, and Customisation

WordPress is one of the most powerful and flexible website-building platforms in the world. It powers over 40% of all websites, including some of the biggest brands, because it offers nearly unlimited customisation options through themes, plugins, and widgets.

Why Choose WordPress?

Ultimate Flexibility: Whether you want a simple blog, a professional business website, or a complex eCommerce store, WordPress can handle it. The platform’s flexibility allows for infinite customisation to meet your exact needs.

Custom Design: I’ll create a visually appealing and highly functional design that reflects your brand’s identity. From custom themes to advanced plugins, I ensure your website not only looks great but performs perfectly.

SEO-Friendly: WordPress is one of the best platforms for optimising your site for search engines. I incorporate SEO best practices into the build so your site has a strong foundation to rank well in Google and other search engines.

Scalability: As your business grows, so too can your website. WordPress allows you to easily expand your website’s functionality, whether that’s adding a blog, an online store, or new service pages.

Content Management: Once your website is live, managing your content is a breeze. WordPress has a user-friendly dashboard, so you can easily update your blog, products, or pages without needing any technical know-how.

Squarespace: Simplicity and Style in One Package

Squarespace is known for its sleek, modern templates and ease of use, making it the perfect option for small businesses, creatives, and entrepreneurs who want a beautifully designed website without needing extensive technical knowledge.

Why Choose Squarespace?

Design Excellence: Squarespace offers stunning templates that are perfect for showcasing portfolios, blogs, and small businesses. I’ll help you choose and customise the perfect template for your brand, ensuring your site looks polished and professional.

Ease of Use: Squarespace’s intuitive drag-and-drop editor makes it simple to update your content after the site is built. If you want to manage your website with minimal hassle, Squarespace is a great choice.

Built-in Features: With Squarespace, you don’t have to worry about adding plugins or widgets. The platform comes with a range of built-in tools, including eCommerce functionality, SEO settings, and social media integration.

Responsive Design: All Squarespace templates are fully responsive, meaning your site will look great on any device—whether it’s a smartphone, tablet, or desktop.


My Squarespace Services Include:

  • Template selection and customisation
  • Complete website design and build
  • eCommerce setup and product listing
  • Blog integration
  • SEO settings and optimisation
  • Training on how to use and update your site.

HubSpot: Powering Your Business Growth with Integrated Solutions

HubSpot is an all-in-one platform that combines website building, marketing, and sales tools into one cohesive system. This makes it ideal for businesses looking to generate leads, manage customer relationships, and grow their online presence.

Why Choose HubSpot?

Marketing Integration: HubSpot’s powerful marketing automation features make it an excellent choice for businesses focused on lead generation, email marketing, and customer relationship management (CRM). All your marketing tools work seamlessly with your website.

Advanced Analytics: HubSpot provides detailed analytics and reporting features, allowing you to track your website’s performance and understand how visitors are interacting with your site. This data is invaluable for improving your marketing strategy.

CRM Integration: HubSpot’s built-in CRM system allows you to manage leads, track customer interactions, and nurture relationships directly from your website. This makes it easier to turn website visitors into loyal customers.

Customisable Design: While HubSpot offers a range of templates, I can create a custom design to suit your brand’s specific look and feel. HubSpot’s flexibility ensures your site is both functional and visually impressive.


My HubSpot Services Include:

  • Website design and build
  • CRM setup and integration
  • Marketing automation setup
  • SEO and performance tracking
  • Ongoing support and updates.

Hosting and Maintenance Services

In addition to designing and building your website, I offer reliable hosting and ongoing maintenance services to ensure your site remains fast, secure, and up-to-date.

What’s Included:

  • Secure Hosting: Your site will be hosted on fast, secure servers with SSL certificates to protect your visitors’ data.
  • Regular Backups: I provide regular backups to ensure your data is safe in case of any issues.
  • Maintenance and Updates: Websites need to stay updated to remain secure and functional. I handle all plugin, theme, and platform updates so you don’t have to worry about technical maintenance.
  • Ongoing Support: Whether you need small tweaks, additional features, or have questions about your website, I offer ongoing support to keep your site running smoothly.
