In need of small business website design services? Well, you’ve come to the right place. I build small business websites that get you more traffic, more leads and more results.
It takes visitors to your site just xxx seconds to form an impression of your business. So it’s important to get it right. And getting it right isn’t just about building a nice-looking site that outlines your services. Because websites are so much more than online brochures. They’re powerful tools that can help you nurture your leads and convert even the most reluctant prospects into clients. They’re a platform that can help you establish your brand as an authority in your industry. And they help you continue to engage and retain your existing customers.
ab I take the time to get to know you and your business, learn about your competitors and your goals and create a customised, effective and engaging website that suits your business perfectly and helps prospects choose you over the competition and help your small business grow.
My step-by-step process ensures you’re guided every step of the way: from keyword research to content creation right through to the launch of your new website - and for many clients even for support once you’re live and just have some questions to ask.
Best of all, all of my projects are scoped out carefully and come with a fixed-price tag. So there are no nasty surprises.

The platform we'll use
Your website will be built using Squarespace, a powerful website builder, blogging platform and hosting service, which is:
Flexible
Squarespace gives your website all the functionality it needs with a huge range of inbuilt modules, including calendars, video blocks, galleries, social media links, contact forms and maps.
Responsive
Squarespace has responsive templates that display perfectly on mobiles, tablets and desktops. So your website will always look it's best, no matter what device it's being viewed on.
Simple
It's easy to maintain your Squarespace site after it's built. Need a new page? No problem. Managing your website is as easy as dropping in moving around your content and images.
Secure
Squarespace is a fully-managed platform. This means that you never have to worry about updating your template or modules - and you don't have to worry about security issues.
The Day Hatch build process
1. Preparation
Before your build begins, I'll send you a document that you will need to complete with the following details:
Your competition
Your target market
Your business goals
Sites you like
Completed copy
Logo and image files
Domain name and hosting details
Using this information, I'll work with you to create a brief that outlines how you want your site to look, what pages it will have and what keywords you want to target. I will then suggest a suitable Squarespace template and you can spend some time checking out its features.
2. Web-build session
This is where the fun begins! I will come to your workplace (or we can video conference on Google Hangouts) and our day will proceed as follows:
9am to 12pm - Review brief and begin website development
12pm to 1pm - Lunch break
1pm to 5pm - Continue web development
5pm to 6pm - Final walkthrough and Squarespace training
If we finish early, we can use the remaining time to make additional tweaks to your new site. However, any changes requested after your development day will be at my standard rate of $150 per hour.
3. Launch and celebrate!
At 6pm we will send your new website live! Time to relax, pop open a bottle of champagne and show off your beautiful new website to the world.
To make sure your website looks great on all devices, I’ll also spend some time adding code that makes sure it displays perfectly on mobiles and tablets.
And in case there are any bugs, I'll provide you with 14 days of support for your new website.
