FAQs

Do you both design and build websites?

Yes. I handle the whole thing, design and development, with one set of hands. No handing your project between a separate designer and developer means a faster route from first sketch to a live, well-built site.

Where are you based, and do you work remotely?

I'm a London-based freelance web designer and developer with 10+ years' experience. I work with clients in person in London or across the world remotely.

What technologies do you build with?

Mostly Svelte/SvelteKit, Next.js and React for modern web apps. I also work in headless or traditional WordPress when a familiar CMS fits the bill. For online stores I use Shopify or WooCommerce.

Can you build an online store or e-commerce site?

Yes. I design and build custom e-commerce on Shopify, WooCommerce or bespoke. From straightforward stores to complex, configurable products with custom checkout, quoting and automation.

How much does a website cost?

It depends entirely on what you need. I work across a wide range of budgets, from smaller sites through to large, complex builds. Tell me what you have in mind and I'll scope it and give you a clear, fixed quote.

How long does a project take?

Most sites take from a few weeks to a couple of months, depending on scope, content readiness and how many rounds of feedback we go through. I'll give you a realistic timeline up front.

Can you redesign or rebuild my existing website?

Yes. A lot of my work is refreshing tired sites that no longer reflect the quality of the business, including migrations from older WordPress builds, with care taken to keep your SEO and rankings intact.

Do you offer ongoing support after launch?

Yes. I offer ongoing support and retainer agreements to keep your site updated, secure and performing after launch and as your business scales.
