What a WordPress website build actually involves
A full WordPress build is not a template with your logo swapped in. It is a custom engagement built around how your business works and how your buyers make decisions.
Here is what the process includes: a strategy session to establish structure and goals before anything is designed, content direction to make sure the site is organized around what a visitor needs to know, a custom build in Breakdance on WordPress, responsive design across screen sizes, performance optimization before launch, review rounds, and a full handoff with everything you need to manage the site independently.
Pricing varies by scope. A five-page service site is a different engagement than a content-heavy site with multiple audience segments. The strategy session is where scope becomes clear.
This service is for businesses that are ready to invest in a site built correctly, not the fastest option, not the cheapest, but one that holds up and works without constant intervention.
If you're planning a new website and want to understand what the right scope looks like for your situation, send me a message.

Dangila Skincare Landing Page – UI/UX Concept
Project description:
For this project, I designed a clean, modern e-commerce landing page for Dangila, a natural skincare brand focused on hydration and "inner beauty." The goal was to create a warm, trustworthy visual identity that reflects the brand's organic positioning while keeping the layout conversion-focused for online sales.
Key design elements include a soft, earthy color palette (terracotta, cream, and warm neutrals) that reinforces the natural and premium feel of the products, a hero section with strong product photography and a clear call-to-action ("Buy Now") to drive immediate engagement, a trust-building stats bar (happy customers, followers, shops, satisfaction rate) placed right below the fold, a "Why Choose Us" section highlighting key value propositions (Natural, No Side Effects, 100% Organic) using simple iconography, a product showcase grid for easy browsing across categories like cream, serum, lotion, sunscreen, and oil, a testimonials section to build social proof and credibility, and a newsletter signup to support ongoing customer retention.
The design was created as a fully responsive layout, ensuring a seamless experience across both desktop and mobile devices.
If you're looking for a designer who can create a beautiful, on-brand, conversion-ready website for your skincare, beauty, or wellness business, I'd love to help bring your vision to life.

One thing worth noting: Contra's project descriptions and tags are usually better without hashtags (since the tag field already handles discoverability), but hashtags work well if you're sharing the same post link on Instagram, X, or LinkedIn to drive traffic back to your Contra profile. Want me to split this into a Contra-only version and a social-sharing version?

The terracotta and cream palette is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. It reads premium without being cold. The social proof bar right below the fold is a smart placement for a DTC skincare brand.
Most Framer sites I audit have the same invisible problem: every breakpoint is its own design.
Designer builds desktop. Then duplicates everything for tablet. Then again for mobile. Three versions, three sources of truth, and the moment you update the desktop hero copy, the other two are now wrong.
Here's the fix I use on every project now:
Build your component with Variants tied to breakpoint, not three separate frames. Set your base styles on the largest breakpoint, then only override what actually changes at smaller sizes; spacing, font size, stack direction. Don't redefine the whole component.
Then use Framer's "Hide on breakpoint" sparingly. If you're hiding more than one element per section, that's usually a sign the layout itself needs a different structure, not a patch.
The payoff: when a client asks for a copy change three weeks after launch, you edit one component and it cascades everywhere. No hunting through three frames hoping you didn't miss the tablet version.
Small habit, but it's the difference between a site that's a joy to maintain and one that quietly rots after handoff.
What's your biggest Framer responsiveness headache? Curious if it's the same thing I keep seeing.

The variant-tied-to-breakpoint approach is the right call. Once you see how much cleaner post-handoff maintenance gets, you can't go back to the duplicate-frame workflow. The "hide on breakpoint" note is spot on too, it's almost always a layout issue in disguise.
