How It Works

The homepage is your website’s first impression and the most important page—it’s where most visitors decide whether to stay or leave. By investing in a custom, professionally designed homepage, you set the tone for the rest of your website and ensure you’re putting your best foot forward.

For those with a tight budget, focusing on the homepage is a smart way to maximize impact without the cost of a full website build. A strong homepage not only attracts your ideal audience but also gives you a clear design blueprint to confidently build the rest of your site on your own. It’s an affordable, high-impact solution that ensures your website starts off strong.

I am a fierce advocate of the Squarespace website-building platform because it offers:

• A professional and creative website can be built without the need for code using a drag-and-drop editor.

• If you do want to customize the site, there are plenty of opportunities with the ability to add code.

• There are no plugins to worry about and no software updates are required. Squarespace monitors the platform 24/7 and addresses any glitches.

• New design elements are launched regularly, as well as features such as performance and accessibility standards.

• Features such as e-commerce, blogs, membership-only content and courses are built-in.

• Tools such as domains, email addresses, analytics, newsletters and scheduling can be managed in the same platform.

• All sites are mobile-responsive.

• SEO is managed with easy-to-use tools.

• All sites and all pages use secure HTTPS protocol.

• E-commerce is a breeze.

• Sophisticated analytics tell you how your site is performing in real time.

Your style guide will outline fonts, colors, and design elements from your homepage, making it easy to apply these details to the rest of your website.

Absolutely! If you’d like additional help, full website design services or consulting is available.

The full amount of $850 is due upfront to secure your spot in the design queue.
