about my Process

/ building sites

Websites are built through CMS (content management systems) or e-commerce platforms, such as Shopify, Squarespace or Wordpress

Completely dependent on your specific needs, we can come together to determine which website builder best suites you.

Maybe you’re looking to build a portfolio for your media business. Or maybe you offer services such as home renovations, personal care, daycare, anything else you might want to offer to the public, then Squarespace is probably the right choice for you. 

Perhaps you’re looking to strictly sell tangible products online. Or if you already have a physical location, and are looking to expand to the e-commerce world, then Shopify is the move for you.

You could be looking to create something completely unique, innovative, and with endless customizations then Wordpress is the definitive choice.

/ Types of sites

I can create various types of websites to cater to different needs including:

  • E-commerce sites are perfect for businesses wanting to sell products online, offering features like product listings, shopping carts, and secure payment gateways.

  • Service-based sites highlight your offerings, provide booking options, and showcase customer testimonials to attract new clients.

  • Portfolios are ideal for creatives, displaying your work in an attractive and organized manner- offering a look of professionalism.

  • Non-profit sites can help organizations promote their causes, accept donations, and engage with their community.

  • Beyond new designs, I also specialize in website revamps to upgrade existing sites and provide ongoing maintenance to ensure they run smoothly.

  • Multiple websites are also an option for someone looking to build 2 or more sites

Let us come together to choose what type of site best works for your entity. Or determine if what you are needing is a revamp or maintenance.

/ Where I come in

There are many parts to creating a website, but my job is to bring them all together into one, cohesive project. The following is offered in all sites I create :

  • Website Design: Creating distinctive and personalized websites to meet each client's specific needs and brand identity, while also being responsive on all types of devices and screen sizes.

  • Website Maintenance: Continuous support to keep your website updated, secure, and fully operational.

  • SEO: Implementing search engine optimization strategies to improve your website's visibility and ranking on search engines.

  • Consultation & Support: Providing expert advice and guidance throughout the entire process, as well as empowering you with skills to manage and update your site completely independently.

And more such as graphic & content design, digital marketing, etc…

It should also be noted: While all of these offerings are included in my website design services, certain aspects can be further detailed and refined, such as design, SEO and site maintenance. If you’re wanting more, we can certainly come together and define those needs specifically.

STEPS TO CREATE YOUR SITE

1/ Initial Contact & Consultation Form

Once you reach out, I’ll send over a short consultation form to get a feel for your needs, business goals, and overall style. This helps us prepare for a more productive first conversation.

2. Discovery Call | Consultation

We’ll schedule a 30–45 minute call to dive deeper. We’ll discuss your brand, audience, goals, and any must-haves. This is where we align on your vision and how we can help bring it to life.

3. Proposal & Project Onboarding

After the call, we’ll send you a detailed proposal that outlines the scope, timeline, deliverables, and pricing. Once approved, you’ll receive an onboarding guide, invoice, and contract to make things official.

4/ Content & Asset Collection

We’ll gather all necessary materials:
• Domain access & hosting info (if applicable)
• Brand photos, logo files, color palette, and fonts
• Business information (services, about section, contact details)
• Website inspiration, competitor links, or mood boards
This step ensures we have everything we need to create something true to your brand.

5/ Direction check-in & Full Site Build-Out

We begin with the homepage. Once it’s ready, we’ll share a preview link for review. This step gives you the chance to approve the direction, layout, and feel before we move forward. After the homepage is approved, we’ll build out the rest of your site — typically including interior pages like About, Services, Blog, and Contact. We also optimize the site for mobile and basic SEO.

6/ Revisions, Additions & Changes

You’ll get two (or however many you offer) rounds of revisions to make adjustments or changes. We’ll work with you to make sure everything feels just right. I will not move on to the next step(s) until you are 100% satisfied with the status of your website.

7/ Final Touches & Quality Check

We run through a full site audit — checking responsiveness, links, loading speed, and overall polish. We’ll also do a final walk-through with you so you’re confident navigating the site.

8/ Launch Day!

Once everything’s approved, it’s go-time! We publish your site and double-check that it’s across devices. You’ll receive a quick-launch checklist and the keys to your new online home.

10/ Post-Launch Support (Optional)

Need help after launch? I offer optional choices that cover updates, minor edits, or training sessions so you feel fully supported moving forward.
