Website Initial Planning
Your site is an investment in your idea or business. You need a return on that investment, but a site without a purpose is just like a ship without a path - no place to go.
I can help you figure out what your website needs to accomplish for you, and how I can help get you there. During this process, we will determine your needs regarding Web Hosting, Website Domain Names, and Site Maintenance.
Website Information & Visual Design
If you have a clear goal in mind for your online presence, you then need to take that idea from the mind to concept form.
Before Visual Design work can begin, the information you wish to convey must be organized by how you wish to convey it. Once we know the site's information architecture, a site visual design and layout can be created.
Once Visual Design work can start, I gather a deep understanding of the current branding of the business - fonts, colours, messaging, slogans, and philosophy. I also learn about its current and desired customers. Once Design Work is given final approval, the site can go to development and will be built according to the design.
If you have a visual and information design you would like to use, a designer of your own, or already have a WordPress site but desire a new theme, parts or all of this step can be skipped.
Website Development
Your next website will be built using the free and open-source WordPress platform. This system allows you to easily create and update your webpages, and allows you to create posts - for blogs or articles or recipes - if desired. WordPress can also be configured to your liking through a multitude of plugins designed to make the experience easier. In Development, free plugins such as the Advanced Custom Fields Basic, Font Awesome, Contact Form 7, Yoast SEO Basic, and Google Site Kit plugins are all installed for use.
Your website will look good and function properly across all screen sizes, and using all browsers.

Custom Website Tools
Sometimes, your customers or staff will need a customized tool that your website can provide. It could be a unit converter, item look-up system, product search, or anything else your mind can come up with.
Incredible features such as these offer branding and customer loyalty opportunities, and useful features can be shared among many people.
Features such as these can be included in your site and cost and time depend on complexity.
