Professional Website Design for Somerset Businesses

All payments are handled securely via GoCardless in GBP (£). I do not accept cash, cheques, or direct credit card transfers over the phone.

I chose GoCardless because it is the safest and most efficient way for both of us to handle payments. Here is how it works:

• Secure & Simple: You simply set up a "Direct Debit Mandate" once via a secure online link. You don't need to manually transfer money or give me your card details over the phone.
• For One-Off Payments: For project deposits or final balances, I will send you an invoice first. Payment is then collected automatically on the due date—but only after you have been notified.
• For Ongoing Support: If you choose a monthly maintenance package, payment is collected automatically each month so your website stays online without you worrying about admin.
• You Are Protected: All payments are covered by the Direct Debit Guarantee, giving you a full immediate refund from your bank in the unlikely event of an error.

Yes, absolutely. While standard smaller projects typically follow a 50% deposit and 50% upon completion structure, I am happy to offer flexible payment plans for larger or longer-term investments.

I understand that website investment should align with your business cash flow. We can structure your total fee based on clear milestones:

• Milestone-Based Payments: The total project fee is broken into 3 or 4 manageable payments, tied directly to key deliverables (e.g., Design Sign-off, Development Complete, Final Launch).
• Upfront Agreement: The full payment schedule is agreed upon and documented in the proposal before any work begins, ensuring complete transparency.

All payments, regardless of the plan, are managed simply and securely using GoCardless, giving you full control and visibility over the agreed-upon payment schedule.

Yes, absolutely. Every website I build includes "Responsive Design" as a standard feature, meaning it will look great on any device.

Your website will automatically detect the screen size—whether it is a smartphone, a tablet (like an iPad), or a desktop computer—and adjust the layout to ensure it is easy to read and navigate. This is critical for two main reasons:

• Customer Experience: A significant portion of your visitors will likely be viewing your site on the go.
• Google Rankings: Search engines prioritize mobile-friendly websites, helping you get found more easily.

Yes, absolutely. I specialize in website redesigns, whether you require a simple visual refresh or a complete overhaul of an old, slow system.

A redesign project involves much more than just aesthetics; it is a strategic opportunity to improve performance, security, and conversion rates. My approach is structured and thorough:

• Technical Audit: I start by thoroughly auditing your existing website's code health, speed, and current SEO standing to see what needs fixing.
• Face-to-Face Strategy: We discuss what works and, more importantly, what isn't working on the current site, defining clear performance goals for the new design.
• Modern Rebuild: We then build a modern, high-performance site, often finding that starting on a clean code base is the most efficient way to ensure your new site is fast, secure, and fully mobile-friendly.

If you have an existing site that is failing to perform or looks dated, contact me to discuss a tailored redesign strategy.

I believe the launch is just the beginning of our partnership. Unlike some agencies that disappear once the site is live, I am available to support you as your business grows.

Here is what you can expect immediately after your website goes live:

• Training: I will provide a walkthrough of your new system (in person or via video) so you feel confident making simple text or image updates yourself.
• Warranty Period: I provide a standard 30-day warranty to fix any technical bugs or glitches that might appear immediately after launch at no extra cost.
• Ongoing Maintenance: Websites need regular software updates and security patches. I offer optional monthly care packages—payable easily via GoCardless—to keep your site secure, backed up, and running smoothly.

You can always pick up the phone or arrange a meeting if you need new features or technical advice down the line.
