You built it yourself. Now let's make it look like you didn't.
There's nothing wrong with a DIY website. Wix, Squarespace, GoDaddy, WordPress, whichever one you used, it got you online, and that mattered. But if it's slow, awkward to edit, or doesn't look like the business you run, it's time for the real version.
If you're nodding at three or more of these, a rebuild is worth pricing.
If your page takes more than three seconds on a phone, a chunk of your visitors have already left.
Changing one line of text means fighting the drag-and-drop editor.
Because it is the template. Your competitors two towns over are using the same one.
Text overlaps and buttons are unreachable, which is where most of your customers actually are.
Missing page titles, descriptions and a sitemap. Search engines don't know what it's for.
Stop paying and the site disappears, after you've spent years on something you don't own.
| Your DIY site now | After the rebuild | |
|---|---|---|
| Design | A template thousands of others use | Built around your business |
| Speed | Weighed down by builder code | Lightweight, loads in about a second |
| Editing | Wrestling a drag-and-drop editor | Email me the change, or edit plain text yourself |
| Search | Default titles, no structured data | Proper SEO setup and sitemap from day one |
| What you keep | Nothing — the design stays on their platform | The source code, your content and your domain |
| Built with | A drag-and-drop template engine | Custom code, hosted on Vercel |
| Support | A help center article | Me, replying within 24 hours |
Your current site stays live and working the entire time. Nothing goes dark.
Send me your web address. I'll tell you what's holding it back, honestly, and at no cost.
I build the new version on a private link. Your existing site carries on as normal, untouched.
You see the real thing before anything changes. Changes are made until you're happy.
I point your domain at the new site. Same web address, no downtime, no lost emails.
Most people who rebuild a website find the website was the smaller half of the problem. The enquiry still lands in an inbox, gets copied into a spreadsheet, and then into whichever tool you pay monthly for. If that's the part that actually costs you time, it's worth pricing separately.
A one-page home base for a comic book seller who runs live auctions on Whatnot, where a profile page barely registers in Google. The page owns the shop's name in search. It wears a custom wolf logo with an animated sting, and sends every visitor to one button. Hand-written HTML, shipped September 2026.
A marketing site for an invented Charlotte pressure washing company, built the way a real trade business would need it. Eighteen static pages covering every service and every service area. A filterable photo gallery, drag-to-compare sliders, and a three-step quote request. The photos are real. The company is not.
Six pages for an invented family winery in Alexander Valley. The collection, the estate, opening hours, a journal and a booking form. No framework at all. Every page reads with JavaScript switched off, the bottles are drawn rather than photographed, and the audit finds no accessibility issues on any of the seven pages.
I'll take a proper look and reply within 24 hours with what I'd change and what it would cost. Free, and there's no pitch if it turns out your site is fine as it is.
