Yes, I can redesign an existing website and help plan which content and features to keep. I’ll start by looking at how the site is used, what feels dated or difficult, and what you want it to do better. We can then agree the pages and layouts that need changing.
First, I get to know your business.
Before I start designing, I want to understand what you do, who you work with and what you need from your website. If you already have a site, we can look at what’s useful and what’s getting in the way.
From there, I’ll plan the pages and put together designs for you to review. I’ll explain my thinking, listen to your feedback and make sure we agree on the direction before moving into development.
-
Talk it through We discuss your business, your visitors and what you want the website to do.
-
Plan and design I organise the content and design the key pages around it.
-
Review together You have time to look through the designs and share your feedback.
-
Build in WordPress Once the design is agreed, I can turn it into a website you can manage.
What I consider in the design.
-
A design for your business
I work with your content and the character of your business to give the website a clear, consistent look.
-
Different screen sizes
I plan how the pages will work on phones, tablets and larger screens, including the navigation and forms.
-
Your branding
I use your colours, typography and imagery consistently so the website feels part of your business.
-
Time for feedback
We agree review stages so you can raise questions and request changes as the design takes shape.
-
Readability and accessibility
I consider text size, contrast and page structure to make the content easier for people to use.
-
Clear next steps
I make it easy for visitors to see what you offer and decide what to do next, whether that’s reading more or contacting you.
Questions about web design
You don’t need finished text and photos for our first conversation. Before designing the pages, it helps to know what each page needs to say and which images are available. We’ll agree what you’ll supply and when, so the layout can be designed around your content.
Yes, I can handle both the website design and WordPress development. We’ll agree the pages and features, review the designs together, then move into the build. You’ll speak directly with me throughout the project. Read about my WordPress development service.
I quote for website design after agreeing the scope with you. The main factors are the number of different page layouts, the design work needed and whether WordPress development is included. Sending your current website address and a rough list of requirements gives us a useful starting point.
The time needed to design and build a website depends on its size, features, content and review stages. I’ll agree a realistic schedule once we’ve discussed those details. Having your text, images and feedback available at the agreed stages helps keep the project on schedule.
