Web design Cork

Every site I build is hand-coded, fast, and structured around what your customers actually do. No page builders. No bloated themes. No guessing.

What's included

Design with a purpose.

Discovery

Before anything gets designed, I understand your business, your customers, and what a successful website actually looks like for you.

Custom design

Every page is designed around your brand and your audience. You get a site that looks like you, not like everyone else in your industry.

Performance

Fast load times, clean code, mobile-first. Sites built to rank in search and convert visitors — not just win design awards.

SEO foundation

Proper structure, meta data, schema, and page speed — every site ships ready for search, not bolted on afterwards.

Handover & support

You get trained on how to update your own site. I stay available for questions and can provide ongoing support if you need it.

Analytics setup

GA4 and Google Search Console installed and verified from day one, so you can see exactly how the site is performing.

My approach

Built clean,
built to last.

Most sites I build are hand-coded HTML and CSS — faster, safer and cheaper to maintain than a stock template. When WordPress is genuinely the right tool — an in-house team that needs to publish, an existing WordPress site to rebuild — I build that properly too. No bloated page builders or plugin sprawl either way.

  • 01

    Hand-coded by default. No plugin conflicts, no security headaches, no licensing fees — WordPress available when it's genuinely the right fit.

  • 02

    Mobile-first design. Your customers are on their phones — the site starts there.

  • 03

    Conversion-focused. Every page has a clear purpose and a clear next step.

  • 04

    You own everything. Files, domain, hosting — nothing is locked in.

Questions

Common questions.

How long does a website project take?+

Most projects take four to eight weeks from sign-off to launch, depending on complexity and how quickly content comes together. I'll give you a clear timeline before we start.

Do I need to supply my own content?+

Ideally yes — you know your business better than anyone. I'll give you a content brief and guide you through what's needed. If copywriting support is required, I can recommend a writer.

What about hosting?+

I'll recommend a fast, reliable host and help you get set up. Hosting costs are paid directly to the provider — there's no markup from me.

Can I update the site myself after launch?+

Yes. I'll walk you through how to make common updates. For businesses that prefer not to touch the code, I offer a small monthly maintenance arrangement.

Do you work with ecommerce sites?+

For ecommerce I work with Shopify — it's the right tool for most Irish online stores. I don't build WooCommerce sites.
