Questions people usually ask

Send a short note via the contact form: what you need, roughly when, and any budget range you’re comfortable sharing. I’ll reply with whether it’s a fit and what the next step looks like.

People, small businesses, organisations and charities who need a clear website, not a bloated agency process. If you’re unsure which type of site you need, describe the problem and I’ll suggest what fits.

Yes. Website design and build, taken on in my own time alongside my research role. Capacity varies, so it’s worth asking early if you have a fixed date.

I’m based in Nottingham, United Kingdom, and work with clients remotely by default. Local meetings are possible when it helps.

Four main kinds: brochure / portfolio sites, sites you can edit yourself, bookings & enquiry sites, and smaller web applications (logins, members’ areas, directories). More detail is on What I offer.

Yes, if we build it that way. Many projects include a simple admin area so you can change text, photos, prices or opening hours without asking me every time. For a fixed brochure site, updates can be handled as occasional care instead.

I can set those up as part of a project, or work with what you already have. Ongoing hosting and renewals are quoted clearly when they’re involved, with nothing locked into mystery fees.

Yes. Sites are designed to work properly on phones first, then larger screens, not a desktop layout squeezed down as an afterthought.

I’m not a full branding agency, ad buyer, or copywriter-for-hire. I also don’t take on huge enterprise platforms. If something is outside scope, I’ll say so and point you somewhere better when I can.

It depends on scope. A few clear pages is very different from a bookings site or a small web app. The contact form asks for a rough budget range so I can reply honestly. You’ll get a written quote before any paid work starts.

Many brochure or CMS sites land in a few weeks once content is ready. Bookings tools and web apps take longer. Timeline is part of the quote, and it depends on how quickly feedback and materials come back.

Typically: who you are, what you offer, how people should contact you, any logo or photos you already have, and examples of sites you like (or don’t). If copy isn’t ready, we can start with structure and fill text as you go.

Usually a clear quote, then invoice stages (for example a deposit to start and the balance on launch). Card payment links can be used where set up. Details are always written into the quote so nothing is vague.

I use them only to reply and discuss the work. Full detail is in the privacy policy. You’ll also tick consent on the form before sending.

Yes. My research role at Nottingham Trent is separate. Freelance website projects are independent work I take on deliberately: different clients, different agreements.

My background covers both. The freelance offer on this site is focused on websites and Django builds. For data or analytics collaborations, use contact and say what you need, or see My journey for experience.

What I offer includes design directions and how projects typically run. My journey covers selected professional work and experience.
