What this actually is
A website is a salesperson that works while you sleep. That is the whole point of it. If someone lands on your page and cannot tell within about five seconds what you do, where you work and how to reach you, the site is not doing its job, no matter how nice it looks.
So that is what I build to. Every site I make gets one clear job: get the phone to ring, get the form filled, get the order placed. Everything on the page is either helping that happen or it comes off the page.
The range goes from a clean single page for a barber or a plumber, right up to the animated 3D flagship builds on my homepage. Those are real, live and clickable, not mockups. AUREO, LUMO, AURA and the rest are sites you can open right now and fly through. Most businesses do not need that. Some brands very much do. I will tell you honestly which one you are.
Who it is for
- Local businesses with no website at all. Barbers, plumbers, electricians, cleaners, salons, cafes. You have good reviews on Google and nowhere for people to land.
- Businesses with a site that has aged badly. It works on a desktop, it falls apart on a phone, and it looks like it was built a decade ago because it was.
- Online businesses and shops. You need a store that takes money properly, not a page that people bounce off at the checkout.
- Brands that want to be remembered. Hospitality, property, architecture, luxury goods, anything where the feeling of the site is part of the product.
What you get
- Design and build, written and coded around your actual business, not a template with your logo dropped in.
- Copy written for you. You do not have to sit down and write your own website. I will ask you questions and write it from your answers.
- Mobile first. Most of your customers will see the site on a phone, so that is where the design starts.
- A working contact route. Form, WhatsApp button, click to call, booking link, whichever fits how you actually take work.
- The basics of getting found: page titles, descriptions, your Google listing pointed at the right place, image alt text, fast loading.
- Hosting on a fast global network with the security certificate included.
- Your domain in your name, and the code is yours. You are not renting your own business.
- Revisions before it goes live, and a walkthrough so you know how to change your own text later if you want to.
What it costs
Real numbers, so you can work out whether this is worth a conversation before you book one.
Immersive 3D flagship builds are priced to the project, because no two are the same job. Book a call and you will get a straight number, not a range that moves later.
How it works
A short call, or a free sample first
For local businesses I will often build you a free sample of your own site before we ever speak about money, using your real photos and your real Google reviews. You look at it on your phone and decide. Nothing to sign, nothing to pay to see it.
Discovery
Fifteen to thirty minutes where I ask you about the business. Who buys from you, what they ask before they book, what you want more of, what you want less of. This is the part most people skip and it is the part that decides whether the site works.
Build
I write the copy, design the pages and build it. You do not have to supply anything except photos and answers. If you have no good photos, I will tell you what to take on your phone and how.
Live preview link
You get a real link to the real site on your phone before it goes anywhere near the public. You click every button. If something feels wrong, say it plainly and I will change it.
Go live
Domain pointed, security certificate on, Google told about it. If you already have a domain we move it across carefully so you never lose your email.
Aftercare
Prices change, staff change, you add a service. Send me a message and it gets updated. That is what the monthly is for, and you can stop it whenever you want.
Questions people actually ask
How long does it take?
A one page local site is usually a few days. A three to five page site is one to two weeks. A site with forms, bookings or payments wired in is two to three weeks. The main thing that slows a build down is waiting on photos and answers, so if you have those ready it moves faster.
Do I own the site, or am I renting it?
You own it. The domain goes in your name, the code is yours, and if you ever want to take it to somebody else you can. The monthly fee is for hosting and ongoing work, not for permission to keep your own website.
What is the monthly fee actually for?
Hosting, the security certificate, keeping the site updated and safe, small changes when you need them, and keeping your Google business details pointed at the right place. There is no contract and you can cancel at any time.
Can I see something before I pay anything?
Yes. For local businesses I build a free sample of your own site first, with your real photos and reviews in it, hosted on my own domain so it is obviously a sample and not your live site. For bigger builds you get a live preview link before go live and revisions before it is public.
Do you build online shops?
Yes. Product pages, a working cart, and a proper checkout that takes card payments. There are live store demos on the services page you can click into and test.
What about the 3D sites on your homepage, are they real?
They are real and live. You can open every one of them and move around inside it. They are my own builds rather than client work, and they exist so you can see what is possible instead of taking my word for it. That level of build is priced to the project.
Will my site show up on Google?
The foundations are included: clean page titles and descriptions, fast loading, mobile friendly, proper structure, and your Google Business profile pointed at the new site. Ranking for competitive search terms is ongoing work rather than a one off, and that is a separate conversation I will be straight with you about.
