What is the web design process?

After the initial contact, I will arrange a meeting/call to discuss your requirements and put together a proposal and quotation. Once the project gets underway I will gather a deeper understanding of your business, your customers and your competition to start building a website that is search engine optimised (SEO) or simply concentrate on the web design, if all you need is a small, simple website. I will create key areas of your website until a series of final page layouts is produced. In the next stage, we will focus on content. Decisions about text quantity and wording as well as surrounding images will be made.

Once design and content are finalised, we I connect your website to your domain or set up a new domain for you. I will also register your website with Google Analytics, Google My Business, etc. I will set up and integrate relevant social media channels and set your email up on Google Workplace, if required. I always make sure that the launch phase is swift and any downtime avoided. After the launch we can take care of ongoing website management, SEO and your social media.

Why do you use Squarespace?

I create our customised websites with Squarespace. I love it because it has the highest quality designer templates on the market and it’s incredibly user friendly. It offers unlimited bandwidth and storage. It is a one-stop shop for web design, web hosting, domains, and integrated Google Workspace. It also has a clear and transparent pricing structure. What's not to like?

My websites look great and will catch the eye of your customers. They are mobile optimised and can be search engine optimised (SEO). When designing a search engine optimised website I always think of your customer and their journey to buying your services or products. I make websites that are engaging and user friendly.

 
 

What is SEO?

SEO or Search Engine Optimisation is a process of optimising a website so that is it easy to find via search engines like Google. It involves choosing the right structure and content for your website to make it more attractive and easy to use for your customers. A big part of SEO are keywords and each search engine optimisation involves extensive keyword research. SEO also includes creating titles, meta descriptions, alt tags, and backlink building.

If your customers are local, SEO will also include work on your business’s map pack to feature on Google’s local business listings and map. The higher a website is ranked on Google, the more people will visit it.

 
 

Why is SEO important?

Ranking higher on search engines like Google gives your business the chance to be found by your potential clients, improves trust and provides a sustainable source of leads. It should be part of every business’s digital marketing strategy.

Imagine, you just had a new website built or maybe you built it yourself? The website looks good and you want to check it out on Google. You type in the name of your business and… oh, no your website is nowhere to be found. That’s because it has not been search engine optimised. No title tags, no meta descriptions, no keywords. Having a website is just the beginning. You have to make it visible to your clients on Google because otherwise nobody will find you. This is why SEO is so important.

Like most things worth doing in life, SEO takes an investment of time and resources.  It is a long-term marketing strategy that will not generate instant results. Noticeable improvements in rankings may take 4-6 months. The process of optimising a site, generating content, building links and all other SEO activities takes time. It also takes time for Google to pick up the changes. However, benefits of SEO are huge!  With good rankings comes more relevant organic traffic, better branding and a sustained source of leads that is likely to last without further payment investment. If Google Ads are a sprint (and an expensive one!), SEO is a marathon but overall more cost-effective and sustainable.
