About

Hi, I'm Will.

I build websites for local businesses across Harrogate, Knaresborough and the Yorkshire Dales.

The story

Local work, properly done.

I've been building websites for more than 15 years. A lot of that work has been in ecommerce, including time at Beer Hawk before AB InBev, and projects for businesses with bigger budgets, bigger catalogues and far more meetings than anyone needs.

These days I run my own studio from Harrogate. The work I enjoy most is for the cafe down the road, the salon on the high street, the family pub that has been there for years and the trades business that just needs a site that brings in better calls.

Outside work, I'm usually with my family, on the mountain bike, or being supervised by the Whippet. I like straightforward people, useful websites and invoices that do not need decoding.

What I believe

Your website should pay for itself in customers, not impress other designers.
If you cannot reach me on the phone, I am not doing my job.
Local businesses deserve the same quality of work as enterprise ones, at a price that makes sense.
Wix is fine to start. Being stuck with it forever is not.

Skills

The boring bits matter.
