Website Design

Squarespace web design

If you run a small business and don’t have a website, or you have one but want to start afresh with an entirely new site, this is for you. You don’t need to have everything figured out and ready to go to get in touch, but it’s helpful to know what you want to achieve with your new website.

If you already have a brand identity—including a logo and perhaps other brand assets like a colour palette, fonts and images, that’s great. If you don’t have these things and you’re interested in working with me to first create a brand identity before we move onto your website project, it would be an honour to work with you!

  • Initial consultation

    Advice on website page structure, content flow and best practices

    We can start with a Squarespace template of your choice, or create a fully bespoke design from scratch—either way, your site will finish up completely on-brand

    Stock image selection

    Custom CSS (styling) added, where needed

    Squarespace SEO checklist completed

    Assistance with purchasing and connecting your domain and setting up payments

    Website launch

    Squarespace training so you know how to manage your new website

  • Copywriting—I can guide you on making your content logical and flow well in the context of the pages of your website, but I don’t offer copywriting services so all final copy must be provided by you.

    The ongoing cost of your chosen plan with Squarespace is your responsibility. It is a subscription-based platform. You choose your plan and then pay either monthly or annually.

    Any payment processing or transaction fees for an e-commerce store.

    Any ongoing SEO work or analytics.

  • Brand identity design or brand strategy work. It’s not included as part of the website design, but I’d love to work with you on it—chat to me!

    Ongoing website support following sign off and launch isn’t included, but I am very happy to support you with updates and edits in the future for an affordable fee.

  • Before we begin:

    All brand identity assets that you already have—your logos, your colour references and links to your fonts. If you have brand guidelines, all the better!

    Your content—it doesn’t have to be final-final, but you need to have a good idea of your content structure and what pages you need once we start.

    Provide any images you want to include.

    Compile a list of any particular website functionality you would like incorporated, or any links to websites you really like.

Your website journey

Easy & fuss free

This is an ‘all-in-one’ solution. I will guide you along your website journey and manage each stage. I’ll let you know what’s needed when. I know Squarespace very well, so I can make things run smoothly and create calm for you.

For now & the future

In the past, people have paid lots of money for websites they can’t easily update, and that’s not fair. You will easily be able to change pages and content any time you wish, without the help of a website developer or a designer.

Built just for you

Squarespace offers templates that we can use to begin if you prefer or I can design from scratch, tailoring everything to you. Feel free to gather a list of websites you find inspirational—it’s helpful to see what you like!

Investment

I’d love to give you a buy now button and a fixed price for your website, but as I’m sure you’ll understand, the size of a web project can vary enormously depending on your business as well as the amount of pages and content you need.

However, I like to be open about pricing as I think it’s really helpful for you to know. Get in touch with me and I’ll be able to give you an accurate cost. We can also consider anything else you might need.
