02 / Kind words

What clients say.

  • Sophie was amazing throughout the whole process. She designed and built our website to perfectly cater to our needs, and we've had nothing but positive results and feedback.

    She's been spot on from start to finish, and I couldn't recommend her highly enough!

    Bradley Rothwell Owner, Firesafe Dry Risers
  • Really pleased with the new website. It looks fresh, modern and fits the pub perfectly. Everything is easy to find, from our food menus to what's going on at the pub. It's exactly what we wanted and we've had some great feedback from customers too. Couldn't be happier with how it's turned out!

03 / Why Built by HND?

A custom site, not a complicated page builder.

  • Lightning Speed

    Loads in under a second. Google and mobile visitors heavily reward ultra-fast load times.

  • Foolproof Updates

    Simple, clearly labelled boxes let you update opening hours, prices or menus yourself, without ever breaking the page design.

  • 1-on-1 Solo Support

    Work directly with the designer and developer writing the code - never an agency account manager.

04 / The process

Three simple steps. No jargon.

  1. Free 15-Minute Consultation

    A free, no-obligation chat about what your business needs. Zero technical jargon, zero pressure.

  2. Design & Build

    I build your custom, mobile-friendly site and share progress updates.

  3. Launch & Handoff

    Your site goes live, complete with a 10-minute video walkthrough showing how to manage updates.

05 / FAQs

Questions, answered.

How much does a website cost?

Every business is different, so I quote each project individually after our free consultation. You'll get one clear, fixed price up front, with no hidden extras.

How long does it take to build?

It depends on the size of the site and how quickly content like photos and wording comes together. I'll give you a realistic timeline before we start, and you'll see live progress links as I build.

Do I need to know anything technical?

Not at all. I handle the technical side and explain everything in plain English. When your site launches you'll get a short video walkthrough showing exactly how to make updates.

Can I update the website myself?

Yes. Things that change often, like opening hours, prices or menus, have simple, clearly labelled boxes, so you can update them without breaking the design.

I already have a website. Can you replace it?

Yes. Many projects start with an outdated or slow site. We'll talk through what's working and what isn't during the free consultation.

Do you only work with businesses in Bury?

No. I'm based in Bury, UK, but work with businesses nationwide. Everything can be done over a call, WhatsApp and email.
