Why custom
Templates carry someone else's decisions
A template arrives with bloated code, unused features, and layouts your competitors already use. A custom build starts blank and only carries what your business needs.
Faster, because nothing is unused
Built and compressed for Core Web Vitals, not inherited from a demo site.
Designed for each screen size
Breakpoints tuned individually, with actions inside natural thumb reach.
Wix Legend Partner build
The top tier of Wix's own programme, so the platform is used properly.
Yours to edit afterwards
Trained, handed over, and no developer needed for a text change.
Timings
Where the two to four weeks actually go
Discovery & quote
A call, a look at your competitors, then a fixed price you agree before anything starts.
Structure & design
Sitemap first, then the key pages designed and revised until the direction is right.
Build & optimise
Every screen size, with SEO foundations, forms and integrations wired in as we go.
Review & launch
A private preview link, pre-launch checks, domain connected, then live.
Support
Fixes and tweaks included, then ad-hoc whenever you need it. No compulsory retainer.
Recent work
Custom builds, not templates
Brand identity
Branding, handled inside the build
A website cannot be designed without a brand to design it around, so branding sits inside the build rather than as a separate line item. How that works depending on whether you already have guidelines is in the FAQ below.
That covers logo, colour palette, typography and the files you need for print and social, designed alongside the site so the two arrive looking like they belong together.
New businesses
Identity created alongside the site, scoped into one fixed quote.
Established brands
I design to your existing guidelines, included as standard.
Refreshes
Logo and site updated together as one project, so nothing looks bolted on.
Accessible web design
Accessibility, built in from the start
Some customers use a keyboard, a screen reader or a magnified display, and a site built only for a mouse turns them away. What standard I build to and how it gets tested is in the FAQ below.
Built in, not bolted on
Contrast, keyboard operation and touch target sizing live in the design system every site is built from, not a pass I do at the end.
Checked before launch
Every site is tested against WCAG 2.1 AA before it goes live, not just an automated scan I did once.
Good for people, good for Google
Clean heading order, meaningful alt text and keyboard-friendly navigation are accessibility basics that also happen to be technical SEO fundamentals.
See it in practice: this site's own accessibility statement covers exactly what I test and what I found.
Online stores
Ecommerce, built to actually sell
Selling online is a build decision, not a plugin bolted onto a brochure site. I build on Wix's commerce engine, so checkout, payments, tax, shipping and stock run on infrastructure built for it, not stitched-together add-ons. What I design is everything the customer sees: product pages, a smooth checkout, and a catalogue that stays easy to manage.
Product pages that sell
Built around your actual products, not a generic template with your images dropped in.
Checkout without friction
Card, wallet and buy-now-pay-later options, and a checkout with nothing unnecessary standing in the way.
Stock you can manage yourself
Add products, update prices and track stock from an editor built for it, not a spreadsheet you email me.
Fixed builds start from £1,000 on Wix Editor or £1,300 on Wix Studio, both on the £200/year Wix Core plan that ecommerce needs.
Common mistakes
Mistakes we see on small business websites
Treating the homepage as a brochure cover
Say what you do, who you do it for and where, in the first thing a visitor reads. You have a few seconds, not a few paragraphs.
A page for every service and none for any location
Give each area you genuinely serve its own page with real, specific content, not the same paragraph with the town name swapped.
Ignoring how it behaves on a phone
Test on a real phone on mobile data. If you would not complete your own enquiry form on your phone, neither will a customer.
Losing control of the site
Make sure the domain and the site are registered to you, in accounts you can log into. Any decent designer sets it up that way without being asked.
After launch
What happens after your site goes live
On launch day I hand over everything: logins, domain and site, all in accounts registered to you. I connect Google Search Console and Google Analytics so you can see what the site is doing, and submit the sitemap so Google starts indexing straight away.
For the first 30 days, anything that needs fixing or adjusting is covered: genuine support, not a grace period with conditions attached. Most clients use it for small copy changes once the site has been live a fortnight.
After that, you have options. Plenty of clients take the training and manage the site themselves, which is why I build on Wix Studio; others prefer to send changes over. There is no compulsory retainer either way, and coming back six months later for a few hours of work is completely normal.
SEO tiers
The SEO tiers that go with a build
Every build ships with WebOws Foundation SEO free: clean structure, fast loading and correct page titles. Advanced adds hand-written schema and breadcrumbs from £300. Performance, full AEO and GEO visibility, is priced on application and only available with a headless build.

The decision
Template or custom build?
Both are legitimate. A template launches in days and costs less; a custom build takes two to four weeks and starts at £800. Which is right depends on how competitive your market is.
How many revisions do I get?+
Unlimited during the design phase. I keep iterating until you are happy with the direction before anything is built out across the site.
Will it work properly on mobile?+
Yes, and it is tested on desktop, tablet and mobile before launch. Studio and Performance give fully responsive design with custom breakpoints; Editor uses two adapted layouts, which suits a simple five to eight page site.
Is branding included?+
Designing to your existing brand is always included. Creating or refreshing a logo and identity is scoped into the fixed quote at the start, never added as a surprise later.
Can you take over an existing Wix site?+
Yes. I take ownership and redesign, update or manage it ongoing. If yours was left unfinished by someone else, Wix Rescue is built for exactly that.
Do you build accessible websites?+
On every project. I aim for WCAG 2.1 AA as standard, covering contrast, keyboard operation and screen reader support, tested before launch rather than sold as an extra.
Can you build an online store?+
Yes. Shops start from £1,000 on Wix Editor or £1,300 on Wix Studio, on the Wix Core plan online payments need. Checkout, payments, tax and stock run on Wix's own commerce engine.
Sound like you?
Let's scope your
fixed price.
A quick call is enough for me to scope a fixed price, with no obligation to go ahead and no hard sell. If I am not the right fit I will say so.
