Personal brand websites supporting women in business & industry leaders to maximise their growth and stand out from competitors.
I design beautiful, professional websites for influential women in business & leadership and female entrepreneurs in who need a platform to support their personal & commercial goals. I work with professional service individuals, influencers, industry leaders & ambitious personal brands.
Three reasons you need a personal brand website
Increase client trust
A great website takes your professionalism to the next level - and having one means people aren’t trying to piece together your brand from various LinkedIn profiles or an out-of-date Facebook page. Every industry leader or expert has a professional persona, the version of you people expect to see. Relying on social media as the ‘way in’ for clients to buy from you means the collars and cuffs won’t match.
A website acts as your showcase hub to highlight what you do, sell services and capture new clients - all using your unique, professional voice and brand.
Generate additional income & opportunities
Whether you’re speaking at an upcoming event or looking for new projects, your website should be your ultimate marketing hub for promoting what you’re doing (and canvassing for further connections).
More importantly, a website offers the opportunity to sell your services or products - whether it’s an e-book, a consultancy package or a digital download - and take payments online, so you can start generating additional income and push interested customers directly to your products.
Stand out from competitors
A website is one of the few ways you can stand out in your industry, as a platform curated solely to sell you, your brand and what you do. It’s the strongest method for showing you’re a leader in your field, with the necessary expertise and experience to back it up.
Think of it this way. When a potential client is deciding between you and a competitor, will they go for the one with the impressive website that showcases their skills - or the one with no website and no findable contact details? You’ve got to be in it to win it.
Do any of these sound like you?
⟡ You have a website but you feel embarrassed about how it looks to potential clients
⟡ It’s been so long since you updated your site, it doesn’t really reflect your current professional persona - and you don’t know where to even begin fixing that
⟡ You’ve developed a well-respected personal brand but much of your work comes through word-of-mouth, and you need to start attracting more clients from further afield
⟡ You need to generate additional income away from your 9-5, and you’re ready to formalise your ‘side hustle’ and make it real
If you’ve answered yes, then you’re ready for a beautiful, professional website that fully encapsulates you and your personal brand.
Why me?
Well, I don’t just understand websites - I understand business.
For over 10 years, I’ve worked with brands from micro solo-preneur businesses through to multi-million pound global companies, delivering the right digital solutions to get real results.
With experience in crafting lead generation sales pages to convert visitors into customers, through to designing & building marketing websites for entrepreneurs, I know how to make ‘just a website’ become your most powerful sales tool - so it’s not just a digital CV but your ultimate method for capturing new clients, winning new work & showcasing your unique identity.
Not only that…
I’m passionate about working with female entrepreneurs, industry leaders and women in business.
I’m interested in building up women by creating the sleek, professional digital platforms that truly represent them and make them look - and feel - great about their personal & professional persona.
I understand what women in business need from a digital partner like me - and my professional experience means I know what your audiences need from your website too.

How I build websites
1
Understand your brand
I begin with a consultation and research call where I get all the information I need about your brand to begin crafting your website.
I’m curious about what makes you unique - this is ‘the good stuff’ when putting together your site. I need to know what you want clients to do and find on your site, along with your personal preferences on style and aesthetics.
2
Structure, design & build
I produce a sitemap (i.e. the blueprint of your website). This is the start of your UX (User Experience) and it’s crafted to make sure visitors take the journey we want them to make.
At this stage, I’ll design the first page of your site for you to review, live on the website. This means you can sign off on the styling, layouts, typography and visuals. Once you’re happy, I’ll go ahead and begin building the rest of the site.
3
Review & launch
You review the finished site, and I make any amends required - then we go for launch.
A final testing phase ensures all contact forms, social links, product payment systems and interactive elements are rock solid before going live.
We’ll finish up with a training session where I’ll show you how to update your site yourself, and you’ll become confident in navigating the system.

FAQs

If you want additional pages for your site, these are charged at £90 extra and we’ll agree the number of pages you need during our consultation.
Squarespace charges per month or per year to host your website on their platform. For a personal brand website, the usual cost would be £144 per year - but as a Squarespace Circle member, I'm able to offer clients a 20% discount, so the yearly total is £115.20.
You’ll pay this direct to Squarespace when launching your website. All prices accurate at the time of writing. You can view Squarespace’s pricing here.If you need a new domain, you’ll need to buy this through Squarespace or a third party vendor like GoDaddy, so make sure to factor this cost in too. Note that if you pay for your hosting with Squarespace annually, you get a free custom domain included.

I’ll need your content to fill all your pages. This is often the trickiest part of getting a website together, but it means I can fill every page with your text and images in one fell swoop.
You can bypass this by opting for my Bespoke Content add-on for an additional £500 - I’ll write the content and populate all of your website pages.
I’ll also need links to your social media profiles, so I can link to them from your site, and your domain info.
-
Of course. We can use your original website as a starting point for content, if you'd like, or we can start from scratch.
-
Absolutely. Just give me your logo, palettes and fonts and I'll ensure your website is a clear contination of your established brand identity. If you don't have any branding, that's no problem - we can work together to find a palette and style that suits your goals.
-
You’d be amazed at how quickly you can fill 5-10 pages. There’s the essentials - home, contact, about, services overview. Then you may want deeper landing pages for each service or ‘expertise’ you have (ideal for SEO and Google search). If you have case studies or projects to show off, you’ll need a portfolio, plus one initial project page to be your template. And if you want a way to keep your clients or customers updated, a blog allows you to do exactly that.
-
No problem. Either let me know at the outset of the project, or we can work it out together during the consultation if you’re not yet sure how many you need. Additional pages are charged at £90 each.
-
All my sites are given a base level of optimisation, which means each page has a well-constructed page title and meta description, and 5 key images on each page will have alt text added. If your provided copy doesn’t include an optimised H1 page heading, I’ll tweak it so that it does (with your agreement). We’ll agree on some of your most important keywords and SEO terms during the consultation, which is what I’ll use for the SEO.
For a deeper SEO service or content overhaul, please get in touch for a chat.
-
We’ll begin with a consultation where I’ll get to know your story, what makes you different, and your innate tone of voice. I’ll use any examples you can provide of existing or preferred copy (we can look at other industry examples, if needed) to help guide how you should sound.
Once a page is built, I’ll fill it with new copy that’s informative, showcases your brand and ‘sounds like you’. Most importantly, it needs to compel your audience to do what you need them to do - whether that’s getting in touch, exploring your past work or something else. I’ll analyse each critical marketing touchpoint to make sure it’s on brand but still engaging and poised to convert.
