## How the work runs.

1. **Content and structure** (Week 1)
   We agree on the pages, their order, and the words before any layout is drawn.
2. **Design** (Weeks 2–4)
   Phone and desktop designs for every page type, reviewed in a clickable prototype.
3. **Build** (Weeks 5–6)
   I build the site, or prepare documented files for your developer.
4. **Launch** (Week 7)
   Final checks on real devices, then a month of fixes once the site is live.

## Asked about this service.

### Do you build the site too?

For sites up to about ten pages, yes. Larger builds go to a developer I trust, and I stay on to review every page.

### Can my team edit the site after launch?

Yes. Pages are made from blocks your team can edit, and you get a recorded walkthrough of the editor.

### Do you write the copy?

I edit and shape it, and can bring in a copywriter. Design starts from your real words, never from placeholder text.

## Sites that sell the work

A small brand's website has three jobs: show the product clearly, answer the questions people keep emailing about, and make the next step obvious. I design every page around those three jobs, starting from your real words and photographs.

Each design starts on the phone, because that is where most visitors arrive. Type sizes, image crops, and buttons are set for a thumb first, then opened up for a desk. Motion stays quiet, and pages load quickly on a weak signal.

## Design and build

You get a component library and page designs a developer can build without guessing. Smaller sites, up to about ten pages, I build myself on an editor your team can learn in an afternoon. Either way, the site ships with alt text, clear page titles, and images sized for slow connections.

## After launch

A recorded walkthrough shows your team how to add pages and swap images, and fixes in the first month after launch are on me. Many clients then move to the monthly retainer for ongoing changes, so the site keeps pace with the business.
