Websites

Who it’s for

You run a local business: a shop, a practice, a trade, a rental. People look you up on their phone before they call or drive over. Your website is what they find.

Maybe you don’t have a site yet. Maybe you have one that’s slow, hard to read on a phone, or still showing last year’s hours. I can help with both.

What I build

I build sites that answer three questions fast: what you do, where you are and how to reach you.

Every business needs something a little different. For a boat shop in Oconomowoc, I put the services and their prices on one long page. For an apartment building in Grafton, I gave each of the twenty apartments its own page and listed what’s opening up on the home page. For a therapy practice with two offices, each town got its own page.

Some things are the same on every site:

• It’s built to be fast on a phone. I build new sites with Astro, a tool that makes very light pages, and I host them on Cloudflare. A one-book store I built with Astro scored 99 out of 100 for speed in Google’s Lighthouse test for phones, measured October 12, 2026.
• It fits every screen. Phone, tablet and laptop.
• Calling you takes one tap. Your phone number is a button.
• Nothing starts from zero. If you have a site now, your domain name, your words and your photos can all come with you.

I don’t build new sites on WordPress, but I still look after the WordPress sites I’ve built. If yours runs on WordPress today, I can move it to the faster setup.

How the work goes

1. We talk. You tell me about your business and what the site needs to do. If you have a site now, I run the free Site Check on it so we both see where it stands.
2. You get a preview you can click. I build your site at a private link. Open it on your phone, your tablet and your laptop. Tell me what’s off, and I change it.
3. It goes live. First I look at every page on a phone, a tablet and a laptop, and run each one through Google’s mobile speed test. Then the site goes live at your web address.
4. I keep looking after it. Launch day isn’t the end of the job.

After launch

A website is never really finished. Hours change. Prices change. Someone new joins the team.

With a care plan, you tell me what needs to change in plain words, like “update our holiday hours.” I show you a preview, and it goes live when you approve it. You don’t have to learn a website builder.
