Why I'm doing this

Not long ago I was making choices I'm not proud of. I'm changing that, right now.

This business is how I'm doing it, one honest job at a time. These are the values I'm living by now, and every day.

Value 01

Honesty

I tell you the real price and timeline, no surprises.

Value 02

Owning it

If I get something wrong, I fix it.

Value 03

Giving back

I build websites for free for any Northern Beaches charity, whatever they do and whoever they are, because I owe my community. Hosting is not free.

Value 04

Earning trust

My first 5 clients get a free design and build, and I'll earn their honest review. Hosting is not included. There is no obligation.

Value 05

Showing up

I do what I say, when I say.

What you get

Everything your website needs, in one place

Most small businesses don't want to deal with web designers, domain companies and hosting providers all at once. Design and build come from me. Hosting and monitoring are optional. Built for local businesses on Sydney's Northern Beaches.

A website built for your business

A modern site designed around what you do, with your words, your photos and your colours. It works on phones, tablets and computers, and it is built for HTTPS, so visitors see the padlock once the site is hosted.

Your own domain

A proper web address for your business, with your choice of a .com or a .com.au. I help you pick it, register it and connect it to your site, so customers can find you and you look established from the start.

Hosting, if you want it

Hosting is optional. If you add it, I set up the hosting and the HTTPS certificate, so the site stays up without you logging in to a control panel. Design and build does not include hosting.

I look after it

On Design & build + Hosting & monitoring I keep looking after the site after launch: backups, security updates, one update a month, and help by email when you need a change.

How it works

Four simple steps

  1. You get in touch

    Tell me about your business, what you'd like customers to know, and any sites you like the look of. If you have a logo or photos, send them too. If not, that's fine.

  2. I design and build it

    I put together your site and send you a preview link. You tell me what to change. The price includes 3 revisions.

  3. I launch it on your domain

    Once you give the go-ahead, and if hosting is part of the job, the site goes live at your web address over HTTPS. If you only want design and build, I hand the site over so you can host it where you choose.

  4. I keep it running, if you add hosting

    Hosting is optional. If you add Hosting & monitoring, I keep the site online. On design and build alone, hosting is not included, and the site is handed over for you to host.

My work

See what your site could look like

Current work

Live websites for real businesses. I built Perfect Jobs & Adventures. BuildIT is backed by the experience of Nick Finlayson, founder and CEO of Innovo, who built the Lux-Lashes and Innovo sites.

Example designs

Example sites for fictional businesses: Ember & Oat, a cafe, and Ironbark Electrical, an electrician. Every site I build is designed for you rather than copied from a template.

Free

For Northern Beaches charities

I owe my community, so I build websites for free for any Northern Beaches charity, whatever they do and whoever they are. I'm doing that now. The free work is the design and the build. Hosting is not free.
