I make high quality, affordable websites. I maintain a limit on the number of clients I look after, to ensure they get the level of service I'd expect myself.
If you want cheap and cheerful, that's not me...
A website is the 'always on' public face of your business, and most likely where new customers will first engage with you. It needs to be easy to find, simple to use and give the visitor all the information they need to make a decision. Above all, quality is key: it needs to look professional to make a strong first impression.
Creating a high quality website takes time. If all you want is something knocked together quickly that 'does the job' then we're probably not the best fit. I'm not the cheapest but with me you get quality work from an experienced professional who takes pride in their customer service.
I know what good looks like, and when there's a decision to make, I'll explain the options in plain English so you can make an informed decision. With me you'll get no jargon or jivetalk - just straightforward advice based on 30+ years of experience.
My approach to pricing
I want to know as much as possible about what you want, what you're trying to achieve and what you expect. I ask lots of questions so I can get a rich picture of what you want and also to spot any potential pitfalls early doors. Once I understand what you're after, I'll work out a price and explain what's included.
It kinda works like this:
We have a chat so I can understand what you want, or what you're trying to achieve
I work out what it's going to cost and send a nice email explaining what it's going to cost. I call out any assumptions so you can put me right or talk through anything that needs to change
If you're happy with the price give me the thumbs up and I'll develop a mock-up of the home page of your website. This won't cost you anything
When you're happy with the mock-up page page, I ask for 50% deposit of the total cost
I develop the rest of the website and give you access when it's nearing completion
When complete, we have two rounds of reviews to apply any changes or tweaks
After the final updates you pay the other 50% and we launch onto the internet
Once final payment is made, I transfer the website to you, and it's all yours (e.g. I "hand over the keys")
Boom. Digital awesomeness
Billing and invoicing
Invoices will be sent from my business account (Salt and Code Ltd) so don't be alarmed if you don't recognise the email address (saltandcodeltd@).

Subscription based pricing
Many of my longer term customers (e.g., > 14 years) prefer a monthly subscription to cover updates, maintenance, hosting etc. Basically this gives them peace of mind that their website is being looked after by a professional. Again, the price depends on what you want so if you think this is something you might need, please contact me. I'll do all the changes, updates and maintenance, so there's nothing for you to do.
Do your own research
If you're in the market for a website speak to a few developers. Learn how they work with clients.
You should get a feel for if they know what they're talking about after a few minutes. Ask about their experience, what type of things you should think about and what could go wrong. Also ask them what they learnt from their last client job.
Go and look at some of their work. Check for typos, quality and get a feel for whether it's a quality job or not. Getting a professional to do the job properly in the first place will save you money, stress and hassle in the long run.
Want to work with me?
I know what it takes to set up and run effective online presence. I make, manage and optimise websites for local businesses; my web design services include everything necessary to get an online presence to be proud of.
You might think that if you work with a smaller web design services firm you won’t get the quality or service you’d naturally associate with a bigger agency. That’s not the case. I don’t have the overheads of a large agency and if you’re doing a project with me, you know it’s me working on it and not the latest intern or some guy who used to fit kitchens for a living.
