Build a New Custom Website
How Your Website Will Be Built
The process of creating a custom new website can take a while. There are a lot of steps in that process so that you get exactly what you want and need. Here are the steps I take in my process to help design and build the best website possible for you.

1.
Free Consultation
Everything starts with the free consultation, which you can schedule on this page. Here we’ll talk about your website to figure out if we’re the best fit for each other and then go through the next steps.

2.
Signing the Contract
If we agree to work together, I’ll work on getting a contract drafted. Don’t worry if you’re not a fan of legal work. This will basically outline the timeline for the project, who will do what, how much this will cost and the payment structure.

3.
Discovery and Learning
After the contract is signed, we’ll talk about the website more. I’ll learn about your business or organization and what you want and need for your website so that I can build you a solution that’s going to help you.

4.
Designing the Website
Once I’ve learned about what you want your website to have, I’ll get to work designing the website. I’ll take in branding, text, images and make sure that it provides a top-notch user experience. And you’ll have a chance to review it so that it looks just how you want it.

5.
Building the Website
Once we’re all good with the design, I’ll get to work on building the website in a development environment. It will use the best practices out there today to help with your website’s security, page speed, SEO and accessibility.

6.
Adding the Content
Content is important for every website. As the website is designed and built, you’ll need to supply the content — copy, images and videos (if there are any). I’ll add it into the website so that you can really see what the website will look like.

7.
Reviewing the Website
Once the website has been developed and the content added, you’ll have a chance to review the website and suggest changes to make sure it looks just like you want it to look.

8.
Launching the Website
Finally, when we’re all ready to go, your website will go live. And you will only need to provide your web hosting and domain information. I’ll take care of the technical stuff. You can just sit back and relax.

9.
Post-launch Website Care
You’ll also have the option to sign up for one of the WordPress Website Care plans when you build your website. These plans come with web hosting, managed updates, security hardening, accessibility checks, SEO improvements and more.
Website Types
What Website You Can Create for Your Business
With a custom website design, you can build basically any type of website you can think of. Whether it’s a basic brochure website, an online store, a website to get leads, creating a client portal, building a community on a website or anything in between, I can help you make it a reality.

Brochure Website
The most important thing a website can do is help people know that your business exists. You can get found through Google searches, and you have a place to point people if they want to learn more about your business. I’ll help you design and create a simple website that gets your business online and explains what you do and how you can help people.

Online Store
Selling online is all the rage these days. It allows you to reach a wider audience than those in your local area. And with the larger potential customer pool comes the chance of increasing sales. But creating an online store can be a challenge, especially if you’ve never done it before. A new custom website design will allow you to start selling online without the hassle of setting up a store and manually adding all of your products. I’ll take care of that. You can focus on getting more sales through your website.

Lead Generation Website
If you run a services business, you’re probably not selling products online. But you should be generating leads through your website. With a custom website design, you can create a website where you show people what you can do and generate potential leads. We’ll work together to craft great landing pages for each of your services and get you going with a CRM to keep up with your leads and customers. It’s the perfect way to generate more business through the internet.

Newspaper or Magazine Website
Looking to create a website that covers your local area’s news or covers an industry you’re interested in? Want to make a website that looks just like or even better than a newspaper’s website? A custom website design can help you out with that. I’ll work to find a design that matches what you need and help you get started with how to use it and how to create articles. You’ll be well on your way to providing great coverage for whatever you choose.

Community or Membership Website
Maybe your business is about having memberships to see various content or to be a part of the community. Maybe you’re looking for an alternative to Patreon where you’re in complete control of everything. A custom website design can help you build just that. I will build out the membership website you want with the design that matches what you need. You’ll just need to focus on creating great content and growing your own brand!

Non-profit Website
Every organization needs to have a website. It’s something that can help you get found, it’s how you can share information about your organization and it can be a place for people to talk about your organization, charity or cause. And you can even take donations through your website. A custom website design will help your organization get online with a great website and set you up to create a community and even start taking donations with an easy to use portal.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long will the process take?
The exact time it will take before the new website is live depends on the specifics of each project, and I’ll be able to give you a better idea during our consultation meeting. But as a general rule I always say that it will take at least three months from consultation to launch.
How will payment be made?
Payments will be made via a secure form through this website. You’ll also have access to the invoice and payment details through the Easy Digital Downloads plugin, so you can always revisit it for your book keeping.
What do I need to have before this starts?
Everyone comes from a different starting point, but generally you should have a good idea for what you want your website to be, what content you want, what other website designs you like and have any photos or videos ready to go. We can talk through the specifics during the consultation.
What if I don’t have a domain?
There’s no need to worry if you don’t already have your domain. I can help you purchase a domain (since you should always be in control of your domain name) and how to pick the right domain name for your business.
What tools will be used to create the website?
I use WordPress to build every website since it makes it both easy to create the website and for you to manage and add the content once the website is launched. Plus, there’s an amazing community around it that I think you’ll enjoy.
Why do you use WordPress for your websites?
WordPress is a great tool for creating and managing websites. It being open source means that you can control everything about your website and you own your content, compared to Wix and Squarespace. And the most “challenging” part about WordPress websites — creating the site — will be handled by me. You’ll get to reap the benefits.
What plugins will be used on the website?
The exact plugins used will depend on what you want with your website, but there are a few that I will use on every website: Gravity Forms, Google Site Kit, Wordfence and Yoast SEO. You can learn more about why I use these plugins in this blog post.
What happens after the website is launched?
What happens after the website launch will depend on if you choose a WordPress Website Care plan. If you do, I’ll take care of the technical side of the website just as the plan you pick describes. If not, I’ll hand over all of the control for you to manage and maintain. Regardless of whether you pick a website care plan or not, I’ll give you live training on how to use your new website as well as give you access to a knowledge base that you can look through as much as you would like.
