My Web Design Process for Small Businesses

1. Initial Consultation

The first step is to get in touch. Complete the form on the contact page and I will be in touch to arrange a Zoom call to find out more about your project.

If you’re ready to go ahead, I’ll send you the proposal. You’ll sign the agreement and pay a 50% deposit. Then, we’ll book in your Website Strategy call.

2. Website Planning

In this step, we plan the content and structure of your website as well as your pages.

3. Wireframe

In this step, I create a wireframe version of your website pages. Wireframes help to organise the content of your pages. They are a black and white version of your pages and contain placeholder copy.

4. Content

Now is the time to work on the content for your website. My content guide will help you write the copy for your website.

5. Website Design

Once you have all the content ready and I’ve received all the website assets from you, I’ll get started with the design of your site.

I’ll be creating mockups of your pages and once you are satisfied with the design, we can move on to the next step.

6. Website Development

Now, I’ll use the approved website design templates to create your new custom, mobile-friendly, responsive WordPress website.

I then fully test the website on different devices to make sure your site looks great on desktop, tablet and mobile.

7. Launch

When everything is completed, tested and you are happy with it all, it’s time to launch your website.

Celebrate and share your new professional website with the world!

8. Website Care & Growth

Launching your website is just the beginning.  Websites need maintaining, updating and new content added to stay effective. That’s why I offer Website Care Plans. I take care of your site and provide the support you need for your business to thrive online.

Uta went above and way beyond all of my expectations

Uta is a real treasure. I am so fortunate to have come across her to design my site.
She went above and way beyond all of my expectations and helped me every step of the way to make sure everything was taken care of and seamless. I feel blessed to know her now and have so much gratitude for the incredible work she’s done on my site.

I highly recommend her to anyone across the globe wanting to design a stellar website. Pure magic.

Shaun, Holistic Life Coach

Developing my new website with Uta’s expertise has been a seamless, pleasant and very efficient experience from start to finish

All the way from helping me define a clear new strategy and brand guidelines to providing a comprehensive and highly intuitive development process for creating all the different elements of the site, Uta has been very responsive and efficient in her delivery.

The communication was very smooth and timely, all my requests easily and efficiently solved, and the overall result is outstanding. I received a lot of compliments for the look and feel of my new site and I am very grateful and impressed with both the aesthetic and the speed of completion of this project.

Valentina, Relationship Coach

Uta perfectly translated my personal brand into a powerful website

I still can’t believe how beautifully Uta brought my vision to life. She perfectly translated my personal brand into a powerful website, often going the extra mile with truly helpful suggestions and resources. Ever the consummate professional, she ensured that SEO essentials I hadn’t even considered were in place.
Best of all, she was patient, pleasant and responsive throughout the entire process. When you’re an online entrepreneur, an effective website is super-important. You need someone who is creative and thorough in your corner. That’s why I’m so happy I found Uta, You’re in excellent hands with her!

Christine, Wellness Coach

Uta did a fantastic job helping me design a website for my business venture

She really brought my ideas for the site to life in a practical and engaging way. More than this, she helped me to better define and communicate my service offering in a way that has actually influenced my approach to the business as a whole. Throughout, Uta was prompt, thorough and professional, and I’m sure I’ll be calling upon her expertise again in the future!

Uta went out of her way to make my website special

It was a pleasure working with Uta on my website redesign.

Not only does she have a great eye for colour and effective site layout but she is wonderful to work with too (and that is a bonus in and of itself).

If you are looking for some ideas on how to revamp your website or in the market for a new one I heartedly recommend you give her a call. She did a wonderful job for me and I’m sure she’ll do the same for you.

Stuart Elliott, Coach

Uta was able to bring focus and forward movement with her lovely calm manner

Uta’s kindness and patience was exactly what I needed to ground me as I tried to get a clearer feel for my niche market and express my offering. I started out quite scattered and she was able to bring focus and forward movement with her lovely calm manner. She responded quickly to every question or request with both helpful and creative ideas.

I felt very supported and would definitely recommend her to anyone wanting a new website. I’m grateful to have found her.

Lisa, Counsellor

Uta produced a website of the highest quality

Uta is patient, thorough and has high standards. Not only does she have an eye for design; she was careful to integrate her ideas into the website I had before, and transform it into something new and far more powerful, while taking into account what I wanted.

Unlike many web designers, she also has a very clear understanding of digital marketing, and how to hook a website up for maximum impact. If anything, she was even more determined than I was to produce something of the highest quality, and definitely delivered it. All of this without drama or fuss. I recommend her work unhesitatingly.

Jack Raymond, Hypnotherapist

Uta helped me define my offering and designed a website that expressed it exactly​

I am an Intimacy Coach with a very niche market and Uta helped me to define my offering and then designed a website that expressed it exactly. I would recommend her to anyone needing help in getting out there on the web and attracting your kind of clients.

She is patient, kind and efficient and understands that we do this work as professionals but from the heart.

Dr. Graham Stevenson, Intimacy Coach

Uta went the extra-mile to give me the site I wanted

Uta went above and beyond my expectations. Not only is my site now mobile friendly but it is ranking on Google better. My site redesign has gone better than I could have hoped for, and my website now works for me rather than burdens me with errors.

I would highly recommend hiring Uta to help you with your website. If you want to be kept in the loop with all the developments of your site build Uta, communicates with you every step of the way, which is something I really loved, working with her. Thank you, Uta, for going the extra-mile to give me the site I wanted.

James, Life Coach

I now have a bright, clear and professional website and it is showing dividends

Uta honed the message I need to get across: What exactly is it that people need that you are offering? It sounds simple, but we need help to get this out to potential clients in an appealing, informative way.

She cleared up my mess! I now have a bright, clear and professional website and it is showing dividends. Uta is wonderful to work with. She is highly skilled, patient and thorough.

Maggie, Buteyko Breathing Instructor

I now have a website I am proud of

In fact, it is much better than I expected it would be.

How long does it take to complete a small business website design project?

The timeframe depends on the scope of the project.

We’ll agree on your launch date at the beginning of the project and then map out a timeline.

However, I typically aim to complete projects within a few weeks.

I like working at my own pace. Do you accommodate this?

No, I don’t accommodate working without a timeline.

We’ll agree on your launch date at the beginning of the project and then map out a timeline.

Once we have agreed on the timeline, then I allocated this time to your project.

What website platforms do you work with?

I only work with WordPress and the Divi builder.

Why WordPress? It’s the most popular website builder used by millions of people around the world and powers over 43% of all websites. Search engines like Google love it, making it easy for your clients to find you!

I already have hosting. Can I stay with my hosting provider?

You can stay with your hosting provider BUT I always suggest using our recommended hosting service who provides secure, fast and green hosting.

I don't have a logo or brand style guide. Can you help?

Yes, I can. Please have a look at my branding package.

You will need to have your brand assets (logo, brand style guide, etc.) before I can get started on creating your website.

When can you get started on my small business website design project?

At the moment, I require about one month notice to book a project, but it is usually useful for my clients to have this time to gather all the things they need to get started with their website.

Do your prices include VAT?

I am not VAT registered so there is no VAT to pay.

Will I be able to update my website?

Yes, you will be. BUT it does require some learning as how to use the Divi visual builder.  How much of your updates and additions you can do will depend on your ability to use WordPress and Divi.

I provide you video tutorials that show you how to make basic edits to your site.

If you prefer to leave updates to your website to me, I offer website care plans to ensure your website stays in perfect shape.

Do you offer support after the launch?

Yes, absolutely! You can choose one of my website care plans.

How do I get started?

Every web design project starts with a call where we’ll talk about your new website. I will go over the process with you. Afterwards, you’ll receive a proposal, and then you can pay your deposit and secure your start date.

Let’s talk.  Book your free consultation.
