How I help

The useful work often starts before the website.

I have been helping businesses, charities, and organisations build their digital presence since 1997. I am usually most useful when the brief is still a little tangled: what needs saying, what should be built, what can be simplified, and what will need care after launch.

Four connected stages: clarify, make, show up, and look after.
  • One person The thinking, design, build, and support stay connected.
  • Since 1997 Enough time on the web to know where projects drift.
  • Still here I build websites to be looked after, not abandoned.
  1. 1Clarify

    Define the brief before production starts.

    I help turn a loose need into a clear direction: what the site should achieve, what it needs to say, which technology fits, and where the real work sits.

    This is often the most useful part of the project. A calm hour spent understanding the shape of the problem can save weeks of building the wrong thing beautifully.

    • Work out what is needed
    • Shape the project
    • Choose the right route
  2. 2Make

    Design and build the site as one piece of work.

    I design websites visually and then build them, from first sketch to finished site. WordPress fits complex content and systems; leaner stacks fit simpler sites that do not need the overhead.

    • Design the website
    • Build the right system
    • Strengthen the brand
  3. 3Show up

    Give the site the words, images, and routes in.

    A useful website needs more than templates and placeholders. I can help with original photography, search, paid campaigns, and email, so the site has substance and a way to reach people.

    • Create original images
    • Help people find you
    • Keep in touch with them
  4. 4Look after

    Keep the site useful once it is live.

    Launch is not the end of the job. I handle updates, security, hosting support, and the small changes that stop a site drifting out of date.

    • Keep things updated
    • Keep the site safer
    • Help when things change
