About this service

Summary

Do you know you need a business website, but you're totally overwhelmed by the thought of setting it up and designing it from scratch? No stress, I can get your site up and running, hassle-free! 💻
I understand how important it is for a business website's design to not only be visually impressive but also encourage clients to book with you. With limited time to make a strong first impression on would-be clients, I know that your website has to appeal to them straight away and be easy for them to navigate. 
As an entrepreneur myself since 2017 who has created her own business websites and contributed towards those of other businesses, I'm very familiar with the essentials of creating a website that communicates your professionalism and guides clients towards getting in touch with you. I'm accustomed with all major website platforms and can implement a variety of features to websites. I'm also a graphic designer, which ensures that every aspect of a website is attractive as well as functional.

Process

How It Works:
First we'll schedule a quick discovery call (it's free!) so I can learn more about your business and what you're looking for.
From there, we'll follow this typical project plan, which is a good representation of the steps my portfolio website design projects usually follow.
You probably saw in the project plan that the first step after the discovery call is that I will send you my website design questionnaire. You can check that out here to get an idea of what the questionnaire contains.

Pop me a message to schedule your free discovery call. I can't wait to hear from you! ✨

FAQs

  • I'm not sure what other brand elements--like colors, fonts, and images/patterns--I want. Is that included in the website design?

    If you'll need my input on the specific brand elements to be used in your website, that would be covered separately in my brand board service. However, if you already have an idea of your preferred colors and typography and can describe this to me clearly/provide me with specific inspiration, we can get started on your website straight away.

  • I don't have a business logo. Is that included in the website design?

    I offer logo design as a separate service once my clients have decided on the rest of their brand boards. If you're not sure how you'd like your brand board to look, my brand board service is the best place to start, and if you want a logo from there you can book logo design with me later. However, if you can give me specific preferences for your brand colors and fonts or provide me with particular inspiration, you can go ahead and book the logo design straight away. I'm happy to design your website without a logo to start, and if you'd like to add one later we can always do that.

  • Where will my website be hosted? Do you offer site hosting?

    I don't offer website hosting and instead recommend that my clients get set up with a Wordpress site on a hosting platform of their choice (Bluehost, GoDaddy, etc). I'm happy to instruct you on this as well as the purchase of your site domain, but you will need to complete these purchases on your side. From there, you would just need to share your site login securely with me so I can work on your project. When the site is finished, I will delete your login details on my side.

  • Does the website design include writing my site content?

    I'll need you to provide me with the specific verbiage you would like featured on your site--for example, bio details for an About page. However, it's completely fine if you're not sure what pages the verbiage should go on or how you want the verbiage laid out.

“I enjoyed working with Monica on my logo design. She is prompt, professional, and thorough, three qualities I truly appreciate. She took time to understand my vision and then provided lots of different options for me to choose from. She communicates clearly and concisely while listening to her client’s needs and delivering exactly what they ask for! Her designs are creative and well done. I will definitely be working with Monica again on future projects!”
