Process & Details
We’ll start with a video call to go over your overall website goals, branding and any pain points with your existing website (if you have one). After this call I’ll send you my price estimate for the project, and invoice for a 50% upfront deposit.
✼
From here I will start working on design mockups of the homepage based on our discussion. Your homework will be to gather content (text copy, images, etc.) needed for the website.
✼
We’ll meet again to go over the designs to make sure we’re on the same page. I’ll incorporate your feedback and notes into the designs.
✼
Once the designs are approved and I have all of the content needed, I will start working on the actual website.
✼
I’ll meet with you when the website is done to go over everything and gather one more round of feedback. After incorporating your feedback, I’ll launch your brand new website! 🥂🥳
✼
I’ll provide instructional videos on how to make changes to the site. If you would prefer, I will also be available to add/change content on your website as needed (at an hourly rate).
✼
how much will it cost to design my website?
Pricing depends on the scope of the project. During our consultation, we'll discuss your requirements, and after the call I'll provide a customized quote based on the complexity and features you desire. But generally web design projects begin at $2,500.
Note this does not include the cost to host your website or buy a domain. I’ll walk you through how to do that (and share my 20% Squarespace discount with you).
how long will it take?
Obviously timelines vary based on the project's complexity, but in general custom websites take between 4-8 weeks. We'll discuss specific timeline needs during our initial consultation call.
do you only work in Squarespace?
I prefer to work in Squarespace for new websites, but if you have an existing website in Wordpress or Wix I can also work with that.
how do I make changes to the website after the launch?
I will provide you with instructional videos and a style guide to set you up for success, but you can always hire me to do website updates for you.
If you find any bugs or mistakes I made in the first month after the website launch, I will fix them at no additional charge.
can you optimize my website for search engines (SEO)?
Yes I incorporate SEO best practices into the design process to ensure your website is search engine-friendly.
