Manchester, UK · Solo web designer

Your website shouldn’t be this hard.

I redesign outdated business websites into clean, modern sites that actually bring in enquiries. No meetings. No jargon. Usually done in a couple of days.

Most websites aren’t broken. They just don’t work.

Most small business websites look fine at a glance, but they don’t actually turn visitors into enquiries.

They’re slow, cluttered, outdated, or just unclear.

You don’t need a full rebuild or a big agency.

You just need something simple that works.

Most websites don’t have a traffic problem. They have a conversion problem.

Hi, I’m John.

I’ve spent years writing, building and refining websites that convert. I’m based here in Manchester and work directly with local small business owners who want a site that actually pulls its weight.

I’m not an agency. You won’t get passed around between designers, developers and account managers. You deal directly with me — start to finish.

One focus: turning your website into something that actually works for your business.

A few sites I’ve built

Different industries, same approach — keep it simple and make it work.

Most websites don’t need more content

Most websites already have everything they need — it’s just not clear.

As part of the process, I’ll rewrite and simplify your existing content so it’s direct, easy to understand, and actually gets people to take action.

I don’t offer full copywriting from scratch — the focus is on improving what’s already there so it works better.

How it works

Three simple steps. No drawn-out timelines.

Discovery

Send me your site. I look at what’s working, what isn’t, and what your business actually needs.

Design

I redesign it from scratch — clean, fast, and built around getting more enquiries.

Launch

Approve it, and I take it live. Hosting, mobile, the lot — all sorted.

Most businesses end up doing one of three things

Hire an agency

£1,000–£10,000+

Takes weeks, lots of meetings, often more than you actually need.

Hire a freelancer

£500–£2,000+ upfront

Still involves back-and-forth, revisions, and time to get it right.

Leave it as it is

Costs nothing

But doesn’t bring in many enquiries.

Or just get it sorted properly in a couple of days and move on.

You’re not paying for a “new website”.
You’re paying to stop thinking about your website.

I’ll redesign your website first.
You only pay if you want to use it.

No risk. No pressure. Just a better version of your site to look at.

Send me your website
