Do you need a website for your new creative business, but have no idea where to start?
You’re in the right place.
Hello, I’m Steph, and I help creatives like you take their first tentative steps online.
If words like *domains*, *hosting*, *WordPress* and *plugins* already have you reaching for the biscuits — don’t worry, you’re definitely not alone.
Starting a creative business can feel overwhelming enough without adding websites and tech into the mix. You know you need somewhere online to share your work, look professional and help people find you… but suddenly there’s a whole new language to learn and a hundred decisions to make.
That’s where I come in.
I’ve been setting up and installing WordPress websites for small businesses for over 15 years. As a fellow creative, I love helping people move past the scary terminology and confusing website tech so you can have a corner of the internet to call your own.
Now, I’m no web designer — and this isn’t about building a huge, complicated website with all the bells and whistles.
Together, we’ll create a simple, professional website that gives you a place to:
- introduce yourself
- showcase your portfolio
- share your work
- and help people know where to find you
Because sometimes the hardest part is simply starting something you don’t yet understand – and I’ll hold your hand through the process.
Step-by-step, I’ll help you install and set up your website, explain how everything works in plain English, along with showing you how to add your logo, words and photos.
By the end, you’ll have a simple online home for your creative business that you can continue building on as your confidence and business grow.
And honestly? That first step can feel huge.
How I help you…
I’ll guide you through the setup step-by-step and help make the technical side feel much less scary.
Together, we’ll create a clean, simple website without the overwhelm of trying to figure everything out on your own.
I’ll help with:
- installing WordPress through Hostinger
- setting up the Make Theme
- installing essential plugins like WP Statistics and WordFence
- creating a simple starter website structure
- adding your logo, fonts, colours and copy
- helping you feel confident using your website moving forward
This is intentionally simple.
You do *not* need a huge website to get started online. You just need a professional, welcoming space that lets people discover your work and connect with you.
You don’t need to be “techy” to do this.
You just need someone to help you get started.
How we’ll work together…
- A 2-hour setup session
We’ll get the foundations of your website in place together, including WordPress, your theme and essential plugins. - Two x 1-hour support sessions
These sessions are all about bringing your website to life by adding:- your logo
- fonts and colours
- images and text
- portfolio content
- contact details
By the end, you’ll have a simple but professional website you can feel proud of — and a solid base you can continue growing alongside your business.
About me
My name is Steph, and I’m a busy parent/carer and creative with a background in web and content for over 15 years. I first started building websites back in 1999 – I’ve seen a fair few changes in technology.
What hasn’t changed is how difficult non-techie people find getting started with their website.
I know how intimidating websites can feel when you’re starting out creatively because I’ve sat there staring at the screen, wondering what the next step is. Worrying about covering the cost. Worrying if I’ll break something or be ripped off.
Let alone trying to squeeze in time in this busy season of my life for the past 15 years.
Yet, my confidence in setting up simple portfolio websites has grown over the years – and now I want to share this experience and help you.
My approach is calm, friendly and supportive. I genuinely love helping people move past the “I don’t know where to start” stage. It makes my day to hear a client be over the moon to see their website up and running, gaining confidence in using this type of tech.
Put simply, I’m here to bridge the gap between the technical side of websites and the creative business you’re trying to build — without jargon, pressure or making things feel unnecessarily complicated.
If you’ve been putting off your website because it all feels a bit too overwhelming, let’s work together.
