We Create Innovative Solutions for Excellence and the Future

Yes, absolutely. While standard smaller projects typically follow a 50% deposit and 50% upon completion structure, I am happy to offer flexible payment plans for larger or longer-term investments.

I understand that website investment should align with your business cash flow. We can structure your total fee based on clear milestones:

• Milestone-Based Payments: The total project fee is broken into 3 or 4 manageable payments, tied directly to key deliverables (e.g., Design Sign-off, Development Complete, Final Launch).
• Upfront Agreement: The full payment schedule is agreed upon and documented in the proposal before any work begins, ensuring complete transparency.

All payments, regardless of the plan, are managed simply and securely using GoCardless, giving you full control and visibility over the agreed-upon payment schedule.

Yes, absolutely. I am based in Somerset and I actively prefer to conduct our initial consultation face-to-face. This is a core part of my service, ensuring I genuinely understand your business before writing a single line of code.

My philosophy is that great websites start with a great conversation. The in-person meeting allows us to:

• Fully map out your business objectives and audience needs.
• Review your brand and competitor landscape together.
• Agree on a clear, fixed-price plan.

While I serve clients across the entire UK (and offer video consultations when needed), I always prioritize meeting clients across Somerset and the South West in person for this crucial discovery stage.

All payments are handled securely via GoCardless in GBP (£). I do not accept cash, cheques, or direct credit card transfers over the phone.

I chose GoCardless because it is the safest and most efficient way for both of us to handle payments. Here is how it works:

• Secure & Simple: You simply set up a "Direct Debit Mandate" once via a secure online link. You don't need to manually transfer money or give me your card details over the phone.
• For One-Off Payments: For project deposits or final balances, I will send you an invoice first. Payment is then collected automatically on the due date—but only after you have been notified.
• For Ongoing Support: If you choose a monthly maintenance package, payment is collected automatically each month so your website stays online without you worrying about admin.
• You Are Protected: All payments are covered by the Direct Debit Guarantee, giving you a full immediate refund from your bank in the unlikely event of an error.

Yes, certainly. I can build fully functional, secure e-commerce websites that allow you to sell your products or services online 24/7.

Whether you are selling physical goods, digital downloads, or services, I create online shops that are:

• Secure: Built with industry-standard SSL encryption to keep your customers' data safe.
• Easy to Manage: I build systems with an intuitive "back office" dashboard, allowing you to easily add new products, track stock levels, and process orders yourself.
• Payment Ready: While I invoice you via GoCardless, I will set up your shop to accept instant credit and debit card payments (via secure gateways like Stripe or PayPal) so your customers can pay you easily.

Best of all, my service includes comprehensive training. I will sit down with you (or meet via video) to show you exactly how to run your store, ensuring you feel 100% confident managing orders from day one.

Yes, absolutely. I handle all the technical details regarding domain registration and hosting setup so you don't have to worry about the jargon or configurations.

I operate a simple approach that ensures you retain full control and ownership of your valuable online assets:

• Domain Registration: I will register your domain (e.g., yourname.co.uk) in your name. I handle the entire process, including pointing it correctly to the server.
• High-Quality Hosting: I work with trusted, high-performance UK hosting providers to ensure your website is fast, secure, and always online.
• Configuration: I manage the technical setup of the server, email configuration, and installation of the necessary security certificates (SSL).

My goal is to make the entire process stress-free. After the initial setup, hosting fees are often included in the optional monthly maintenance package (paid via GoCardless) to ensure continuous security and support.
