Website design & build

A website built properly, then looked after.

Fixed prices, a clear process and a site you own. Pick the package that fits, send a short brief, and get a quote. Afterwards I can keep it updated, backed up and secure for you.

Prices are "from" prices. After your brief I send a fixed quote based on what you actually need. Extra pages, copywriting, photography and premium plugins or stock images are quoted before any work happens.

How a project works

Six clear steps, from brief to live.

1

Tell me about it

Fill in a short project brief: what the site is for, what you need on it, and where your domain and hosting stand. It takes about ten minutes.

2

Get a quote

I reply with a fixed price, what is included and a timeline. No surprises, and nothing starts until you say yes.

3

Pay a 50% deposit

The deposit books your spot and starts the work. You pay by card through Payfast, or by EFT.

4

Build and review

I build it, you review it, and we do the agreed rounds of revisions until you are happy.

5

Pay the final 50% and go live

The balance is due before launch. Once paid, the site goes live and everything is handed over to you.

6

Keep it healthy

WordPress sites are best looked after. After launch I will offer a monthly care plan, optional and cancel any time.

Your domain and hosting

You own your site. Always.

Your domain, your name

Your domain is registered in your own account, so nobody can hold it hostage. I can register it for you in your name, or guide you through it. The registrar fee is paid by you directly.

WordPress sites: your hosting

WordPress and shop sites are built on hosting you own. I recommend a provider that fits your site and budget, and set everything up with you.

Quick Sites: hosted for you

Quick Sites run on a fast global network that I manage. Hosting is R600 per year from launch, so there is nothing for you to set up or maintain.


The fine print, kept short

Terms

  • 50% deposit before work starts. The deposit is not refundable once work has begun.
  • The remaining 50% is due before launch. The site and its files are handed over once paid in full.
  • Revisions are limited to the rounds listed in your package. Extra changes are quoted.
  • You supply text, images and logos, or ask for help with them as a quoted extra, and delays on your side move the timeline.
  • Third-party costs such as domains, hosting, premium plugins and stock photos are paid by you and quoted up front.

Not sure which package?

Send the brief and pick your best guess. I will recommend the right fit in your quote, and you are never committed until you pay the deposit.
