Your website should be bringing you work.
If it isn't, that's a fixable problem. I'm Alex. I design, build, and look after custom websites and web software for small businesses. No agency, no account managers, and nobody handing your project to a junior.

Everything this page needs comes from this site. Most sites also load fonts, scripts and widgets from other companies: each one sees the visit, and each one can slow the page down or break it on a bad day.

Three reasons a website stops earning its keep
-
Updating it is such a chore that nobody does
So the hours are wrong, the specials are from last spring, and customers phone to ask questions the site should have answered.

It looks like every other site in your industry
A template says you bought the same thing as your competitors. Nothing about it tells someone why they should pick you.

It's slow, and Google has noticed
Every second of load time costs you visitors before they see a word. Search rankings follow, and so does the phone going quiet.

What I do
Most projects fall into one of these. If yours does not, ask anyway.
You'll always know where your project stands.
Every client gets a private portal. See progress as it happens, upload your logo and copy, leave feedback on the actual page you mean, read invoices, and pay them. No wondering what's happening and no chasing me for an update.
- Live progress on every task, not a status email once a fortnight
- Upload documents, logos, and photos in one place
- Comment directly on the work instead of writing paragraphs describing it
- Invoices and payment history, always available
