How it works

From a chat to a finished site

  1. 1

    A chat

    We talk about your business, your customers and what the site needs to do. No jargon.

  2. 2

    A first draft

    You get a working preview to click through on your own phone, usually within two weeks.

  3. 3

    Your changes

    Tell me what to change. I keep going until you are happy with every page.

  4. 4

    Go live

    I put it on your web address and make sure Google can find it. Then I look after it.

About me

Hi, I'm Chris

I've worked in IT for over 20 years, mostly with databases and reporting. I live in Christchurch and started building websites for my own church and for friends' businesses.

I keep things simple: a clean, fast site that tells your customers what they need to know and works well on their phones. You deal with one person from start to finish, and you always get a straight answer.

Questions

Good to know

Do I need to know anything technical?

No. You tell me about your business in plain words and send a few photos. I do the rest, including the web address and hosting.

Who owns the website?

You do. The web address is registered in your name, and if you ever want to move on I hand everything over.

What if I need changes later?

Small changes like new hours, menus or prices are included in the care plan. Bigger additions are quoted up front.

Can you help a club or church on a tight budget?

Yes. Get in touch and tell me what you need. Community groups are where I started.

Let's talk about your website

Send me an email or give me a call with a little about your business. I'll get back to you within a day or two, with no obligation.
