WordPress Websites That Actually Generate Leads

Most small business websites look nice but don’t do much. They sit there, collecting dust, while you wonder why the phone isn’t ringing.

Your website should be your hardest-working employee - bringing in enquiries while you sleep, building trust before you’ve even spoken to a prospect, and making it effortless for customers to work with you.

That’s what I build.

What You Get

Every website I build includes:

Custom WordPress Design

A website designed around YOUR business - not a template with your logo slapped on. Built to reflect your brand and convert visitors into customers.

Mobile-First & Fast

Over 70% of visitors browse on phones. Your site will load fast and look perfect on every device - because slow sites lose customers.

SEO Foundations

Built-in search engine optimisation so customers can actually find you on Google. No point having a great site if nobody sees it.

Easy to Update

Make changes yourself without calling a developer. I'll train you on WordPress so you're never stuck waiting for simple updates.


Real Results from Real Clients

I don’t just build websites - I build websites that work. Here’s what that looks like:

Ilkley Dental Care

The problem: A dated website that was hard to navigate, difficult to update, and wasn’t generating enquiries.

The solution: A modern, clean WordPress site with streamlined information architecture, automated Google Reviews integration, and clear calls-to-action.

The result: The practice now receives 30+ enquiries per month through their website, with staff reporting it’s “much easier to manage.”

Rebecca Rennolds Permanent Beauty & Laser

The problem: No website at all - everything was managed through social media, which was becoming overwhelming.

The solution: A premium WordPress site with booking and pricing front and centre, gallery-focused design, and local SEO foundations.

The result: 3,000-4,000 page views per month, strong local search rankings, and clients regularly saying “I found you through your website.”

Steve is fantastic! He created a beautiful website for my skin clinic. The finished result looks extremely professional, slick and stylish. Steve couldn't have been more accommodating and helpful. He went out of his way to make sure my website was just as I wanted!

Maidens and Ravens Bridal Boutique

The problem: A unique bridal boutique needed a website that captured their gothic, non-traditional aesthetic while showcasing one-of-a-kind dresses.

The solution: A custom WordPress + WooCommerce site with a striking menu design, dress catalogue functionality, and seamless appointment booking.

The result: 1,000+ visitors per month and 30 Google reviews in the first three months after launch.

Steven has gone over and above to deliver the most amazing website for me and I am absolutely thrilled with it. His patience through my numerous changes and his vision in getting it just right has been fantastic. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a new website and have already done so to colleagues and friends. Thank you Steven for everything!
