TRANSPARENT, ALL-INCLUSIVE PRICING INCLUDES

DESIGN  |  COACHING & CONSULTANCY  |  TECHNICAL SETUP  |  FOLLOW ON SUPPORT

Having been a self-employed coach myself and having a network of contacts who are also solo consultants, fractional business chiefs, coaches and therapists, the majority of sites needed for such roles can be packaged into a relatively simple, clear “brochure” website: perfect to showcase who you are, what your personality is, what your values are in life & business.

We will work together to best reflect your own personality

The finished designs will still be as individual as you are

For those of you who wish to sell your crafts online, we can add a relatively simple, easy to manage online store.

Note: I can help you complete the Local Enterprise Offices’ Trading Online Voucher (TOV) scheme application.

For SME businesses, requirements start to vary considerably, which is reflected in the pricing below.

To understand the process from an initial call to receiving a finished website, see my Design Process explainer

Pricing

Using my background in values based Coaching and in Sales, I can help you define your own business values and goals. We can work together to curate your site’s design personality to match your personal &/or desired company identity.

What other website designers have this breadth of skills and experience to bring to your project?

* (Note an online booking function is required by Ireland’s Local Enterprise Offices (LEO) to be eligible for numerous training and support options. I can help with the applications.)

Included in every site

Latest WordPress Install

A highly scalable Content Management System (CMS) which can meet the needs of businesses of any size. Globally, WordPress is the most popular CMS, powering approximately 35% of all websites. Its widespread use is a testament to its reliability and effectiveness it provides the tools you need to create a successful online presence.

Visual Page Editor License

A license* for a popular, visual page builder which makes content updates considerably easier and cheaper to offer than “hand coding” from scratch

This license also comes with a value-added, built-in AI image and text content creator*

Training

You will receive comprehensive training on how to edit your own content, empowering you to make minor updates and changes to your website’s content, giving you the flexibility to DIY.

Alternatively, you can subscribe to the monthly retainer package for ongoing support and content creation.

Cookie Control

In order to comply with GDPR regulations, it is necessary for websites to display cookie control popups to website visitors.

These popups provide transparency and give visitors the ability to control their preferences, ensuring their personal data is collected and processed in a lawful and transparent manner, respecting the rights and privacy of individuals. 

Privacy Policy

As well as being a legal requirement for all websites in Irealnd, the EU and the UK, having a well-formed privacy policy page is essential for any website. It provides transparency and reassurance to your visitors by explaining how their personal data is collected, used, and protected to establish trust with potential customers.

Website Security

Built with security in mind from the start, plugins to every site are well-known tools to ensure your site’s safety. With our curated selection of basic plugins for website security, you can rest easy knowing that your website is protected from potential threats. Basic licenses are included

Stay ahead of cyber attacks and safeguard your valuable data with our reliable security measures. 

Accessibility Compliance

Accessibility: Ireland is to make website accessibility mandatory by 28 June 2025 under the European Accessibility Act (EAA). This includes individuals with visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, and neurological disabilities. Your site will be checked for compliance to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1

*While you are subscribed to the monthly retainer package, the visual page builder will also receive software updates.

If you opt to not use this service, your site will still function, but won’t receive the updates to that visual builder. The AI generator will also cease to function.

WordPress itself and most other plugins using their basic/free licenses will still update.

What’s not included?

As this is a small business, I don’t have the capacity to offer extensive SEO & Analytics managed services (a full time job in itself), or Technical Support for your hosting package (also, due to GDPR regulations I am not permitted to unless you give authority to your hosting company), so to offer the best possible service to my customers I have opted to not offer SEO or webhosting myself so that you can choose your own hosting provider and rely on them for their support hours and skills.

I am, of course, happy to liaise with the Tech Support teams given the authority to do so.

Therefore, what isn’t included in the website design services is:

      • Web hosting (including email hosting)
      • Domain registration
      • Technical Support – this will be provided by the hosting provider directly
      • Ongoing SEO & Analytics services

I strongly recommend choosing a hosting package from Krystal (UK based) who I have been using myself since 2016. Regular award winners for customer service & technical support, with a non-profit focus, dedicated to entirely green energy supply and recently awarded B-Corp certification, I can confidently recommend using their hosting. They are regularly, seamlessly updating their hardware centres – I noticed myself even within the past year a considerable speed improvement.

Their packages are fully scalable and support every size of business from sole employees to enterprise level organisations. Some packages will include one domain name registration free for the life of the hosting.
