    The development of the site was handled with complete competence and authority. Delivered on time, on budget and with an uncomplicated, expert smoothness that you do not always see in the world of websites. It was an excellent partnership.

    Does your website feel like it’s holding you back?

    Most of the businesses I work with come to me with one of these.

    It looks dated

    You’re a little embarrassed to send people to it, and you suspect it’s costing you work.

    It gets visits but not enquiries

    People land, look around and leave without calling or getting in touch.

    Agencies felt like a black box

    You never knew who was doing the work, and simple changes took weeks.

    Mark Excell, web designer in Oxfordshire

    Why work with me

    Twenty years, hundreds of websites, and you deal only with me.

    One person, start to finish

    No account managers, no handoffs, no junior staff learning on your budget. What’s planned is what gets built.

    Local, and experienced

    Two decades building websites for businesses across Oxfordshire, based in Witney and close enough to meet in person.

    Fast and findable by default

    Every site is built to load fast on phones and desktops, with SEO built in from day one, so it is ready to be found.

    Certified in front-end development (Meta), UX design (Google), UI/UX design (CalArts) and web design & development (University of Michigan).

    Design approach

    How I’d approach a site for your business

    Three concept websites for typical Oxfordshire businesses, each designed around what that kind of customer needs to see before they get in touch. They’re live, so try them on your phone.

    Concept

    Trades: a roofer in Witney

    Fennick Roofing

    Built for someone with a leak who needs help now. The phone number is the biggest thing on the page, and on a phone a call button stays on screen.

    Concept

    Professional services: a law firm in Oxford

    Quarrell Hale Solicitors

    Calm and trustworthy, with fees published in full the way the SRA’s transparency rules require, so visitors know the cost before they call.

    Concept

    Health: a physiotherapy clinic in Witney

    Hartlow Physiotherapy

    A “Where does it hurt?” guide answers the visitor’s first question, then leads straight to booking an assessment.

    These are concept websites for fictional businesses, designed and coded from scratch to show my approach. None of the businesses is real.

    Results

    90%

    lower costs for The Recycler

    Their expensive, agency-built website was rebuilt and moved to more affordable hosting, cutting their costs by 90%.

    Creating my site was far less painful than I thought it would be. Mark accomplished the task professionally, efficiently and within the stated timescales. Much sooner than I expected, I found myself on Google.

    Common questions

    Websites designed and coded from scratch start from £995. My next 5 clients get 25% off, so from £745. After our call you’ll get a fixed written quote, so the price won’t change unless the scope does. There is no VAT to add, and no hidden extras, plugin licences or minimum contracts.

    Most brochure websites go live in 3 to 4 weeks from the go-ahead. The biggest factor is usually how quickly the content comes together, and I’ll help with that so it doesn’t hold things up.

    Not on your own. You know your business best, so I’ll ask the right questions and help shape your words into copy that works on the web. If you don’t have suitable photos, I can source quality stock images or recommend a local photographer.

    Your site is hand-built for speed and security, so there’s no admin system to learn or keep updated. Just email me the changes and I’ll make them for you, usually within a couple of working days. Small changes are included for the first month after launch. If you would rather edit the site yourself, a custom WordPress website starts from £1,795.

    I don’t host websites myself, and that is deliberate. I’ll help you choose fast, secure UK hosting and set it up in your own name, or work with your existing provider. Your website, domain and data stay yours, with no lock-in.

    Yes. Send me the address with your enquiry and I’ll review what’s working and what isn’t before we talk, so the call is useful even if you decide not to go ahead.

    Let’s talk about your website

    A free 20-minute call, a free review of your current site, and a fixed quote within 48 hours. No obligation, no sales pitch.
