web design
Effective, functional and really quite lovely websites
Your website is your first impression—let’s make it count.
I design intelligent, beautiful websites for coaches and consultants that build trust, reflect your unique value, and help grow your business. With a strong blend of marketing know-how, technical expertise, and a knack for really listening to what you need, I create websites that not only look great but work hard for you. During the build process, you’ll feel supported every step of the way—and proud of what we create together.

Planning your website
Your website is often where potential clients first connect with your business—so it’s got to stand out and do the job well. Sometimes, this can feel a little daunting. When I speak with new clients, they often have plenty of ideas but aren’t quite sure how to turn them into a clear website brief. To make things easier, I’ve created a helpful guide and template you can use to organise your thoughts and outline your vision. Follow the links below to get started.

The Details
Domain Name
Choosing the right domain name for your business is essential to your website’s success. If you don’t have one already, I can help you with this and arrange the purchase for you or point you in the right direction if you want to do it yourself.
Content
It can be tricky to write about your own business particularly to include with all the appropriate keywords that help Google to find you. If you need help with this I work with a network of great content writers who can create content for you that has impact and communicates with your customers and incorporate all the right keywords to ensure your website is as visible as possible to the search engines.
Images
If you don’t have your own images, I can take a brief from you, source them and give you a suggested range to choose from. Or I can point you to some tried and tested image libraries if you want research your own. Plus if you want some bespoke images just for you, I can recommend some fabulous photographers.
Updating
All the websites are easily updated and some training about how to do this is included in the package. Alternatively, I can manage updates for you if you prefer or time is pressing.
Hosting
Most of my clients opt for a hosting package with me too. That way I can look after all your site and plugin updates and be on hand if anything doesn’t quite go to plan.
I offer a great high-performance hosting package with an SSL Certificate, daily back ups and all updates included. The company I use are known for their speed and reliability to ensure your website operates at peak performance. Plus it includes robust security measures which helps protect your website from malware and other threats.
Alternatively I can build/ maintain or develop your site on your own hosting if you prefer.
Hosting packages start from £15/ month

Recent Projects
Here’s a selection of my recent projects. Each one was built with WordPress and carefully designed to match the unique needs and goals of the client. I work mainly with coaches and consultants who want a website they’re proud to share—something that not only looks great but helps them grow their business with confidence. Every site I build is fully responsive, so it works beautifully on phones, tablets, and desktops—and most importantly designed to grow and evolve with their business.
Jo has reserves of patience that I had not known possible, always going the extra mile to ensure that everything was perfect and that all our ideas were met. Extremely personable and approachable, she made the website creation process fun, engaging and easy which was an unexpected bonus!
