Work with a Professional Web Designer to Build Your Dream Website

A well-designed web page isn’t just about looking good—it needs to function seamlessly and create a great user experience. As a professional web designer, I follow these five golden rules to ensure every site is effective, engaging, and built to convert:

1. User-Centered Design

Your website should be designed with your ideal client in mind. This means intuitive navigation, clear calls to action, and a layout that makes it easy for visitors to find what they need. If your audience struggles to use your site, they won’t stick around.

2. Mobile Responsiveness

With most users browsing on their phones, a mobile-friendly design isn’t optional—it’s essential. A professional web designer ensures that your site looks and functions beautifully on all screen sizes, from desktops to smartphones.

3. Fast Loading Speed

A slow website frustrates visitors and can hurt your search rankings. Optimizing images, minimizing unnecessary code, and using reliable hosting are just a few ways to keep your site running at top speed.

4. Consistent Branding & Visual Hierarchy

Your website should reflect your brand identity with consistent fonts, colors, and imagery. A strategic visual hierarchy guides visitors through your content, highlighting the most important information first.

5. SEO & Accessibility Best Practices (View these services here.)

A well-designed website isn’t just visually appealing—it’s also discoverable. By following SEO best practices, like using clear headings, optimized images, and descriptive meta tags, a professional web designer ensures your site ranks well on search engines. Plus, accessibility features (like alt text for images and readable font sizes) make your site usable for everyone.

A well-optimized site attracts more organic traffic, increases credibility, and ultimately leads to more business.

The cost of hiring a professional web designer can vary widely depending on factors like the complexity of the site, custom features, and the designer’s experience level. Here’s a general breakdown to give you an idea:

1. Freelance Web Designers ($1,500 - $10,000+)

Hiring a professional web designer for a custom website typically starts around $1,500 for a simple, well-structured site. More advanced websites with custom design elements, SEO optimization, and integrations (like booking systems or e-commerce) can range from $3,000 to $10,000 or more. Check out the specific details of my website packages here: VIP Day, Single Page Website, Website in a Week, and Custom Squarespace Websites.

2. Web Design Agencies ($10,000 - $50,000+)

Agencies often handle everything—from branding to content strategy to complex website development. Their prices reflect the full-service approach, making them ideal for larger businesses needing a robust online presence.

3. Ongoing Costs to Consider

Beyond the initial design, your website will have ongoing costs like domain renewal, hosting, maintenance, and potential content updates. A professional web designer can also offer retainer services or ongoing support packages.

Bottom line: Your website is an investment in your business. Whether you're looking for a streamlined, budget-friendly option or a fully custom site, working with a professional ensures you get a site that looks great, functions seamlessly, and helps grow your business.

I offer a mini branding service.

As a professional web designer, I know that a website isn’t just about looking good—it’s about creating a brand that resonates with your audience and sets you apart. While I focus primarily on web design, branding naturally plays a role in my process.

How I Help with Branding:

• Brand Strategy Guidance: If you’re still shaping your brand identity, I can help you clarify your messaging, tone, and overall aesthetic so your website reflects your business authentically.

• Website Design: Your website should visually align with your brand’s colors, typography, and style to create a seamless, recognizable experience for your audience.

• Logo & Visual Identity: While I don’t specialize in full-scale branding packages, I can offer a font logo or connect you with a trusted branding expert if you need a complete visual identity.

• Consistent Brand Storytelling: From the layout to the copywriting, I ensure your website tells a cohesive story that builds trust with your audience.

Yes, Squarespace includes several built-in SEO tools, such as automatic site maps, clean HTML markup, and mobile-friendly designs. It also allows you to customize SEO titles, meta descriptions, and URL slugs.

However, for advanced SEO strategies like keyword research, backlink building, and technical optimization, you may need external tools or a managed SEO service to maximize results. Take a look at my SEO services: SEO Power Hour, SEO Sprint, and SEO Retainer.

As a professional web designer, I’ve chosen to specialize in Squarespace for the following reasons:

✔ User-Friendly – No coding required (but can be added). Drag-and-drop design makes it easy to update content yourself.
✔ All-in-One Solution – Hosting, security, and updates are built-in, so you don’t have to manage them separately.
✔ Great for Small Businesses & Service Providers – Perfect for entrepreneurs who need a polished site without a steep learning curve.
