Web design for small businesses
A website should explain what you do, answer the questions customers ask and make it easy to contact you. I design and build custom websites from Amsterdam, working directly with the business owner.
A custom website or a CMS?
A custom website makes sense when you want a focused site with a specific design and only occasional content changes. It can be a single page or a set of pages for your services, work and contact details.
A CMS website lets you update content yourself. If you regularly change opening hours, add projects or publish news, we can choose a content management system that suits those tasks. I’ll explain what you can edit and what still needs development work.
What the work includes
We start with your customers, the services you offer and the action you want visitors to take. I then work on the page structure, design and development. We review the site together before launch.
Mobile layouts, clear navigation, useful headings and basic local SEO are part of that work. Forms, booking tools and online payments need their own scope so we can choose the right setup and account for any provider fees.
The €400 starter website
The starter is a one-page website with mobile-friendly design, a contact form, basic local SEO setup and two revision rounds. You supply the text and photos. The price is €400, excluding VAT where applicable. Domain, hosting and paid tools are separate.
Extra pages, a CMS, booking systems or a webshop are quoted separately. We agree on the scope and costs before work begins. You can request a free initial demo to see a design direction; this is a concept, not a complete free website.
What I need from you
Bring your business details, the services you want to explain, any existing branding, and examples of websites you like. If you already have a website, send the address and tell me what is difficult to use or keep up to date.
The project schedule depends on the agreed scope and when content and feedback are available. I’ll discuss that with you before we start. After launch, I can help with changes and website maintenance.
