Web design in Cirencester: FAQs

What website builder should I choose for my website design?

This is a question I get asked all the time, and the answer is down to you and what works for your business. It’s really about how much time and effort you want to put into maintaining your website. I design websites using two platforms; Squarespace and WordPress. For my WordPress websites, I use a premium builder, called Divi. I tend to find one of these will suit my clients. Book a Zoom call with me and I can help you to define and choose the right website builder to suit your needs.

Where do I start when thinking about my website design?

First, you need to decide how you want your website design to help your business. Websites can be used for a wide range of purposes, including selling products, promoting your services, gathering customer data and generating appointments, calls and bookings.

You should think about the structure of the website first before starting to think about the actual website design. A good website structure combined with great web design will go a long way rather than just having a website that looks good but has no clear customer journey. You’ll just end up leaving customers confused and wanting to look elsewhere.

I work through a 4-stage website workflow so you can understand and approve each stage, making sure you are happy with it. This means I tailor your website to align with your business goals, meet your expectations, and resonate with your intended audience.

How can I attract visitors to my website?

People won’t visit your website just because it looks beautiful. I always remind clients that I can build an amazing site, but that doesn’t mean it will automatically attract lots of visitors.

There is a science to marketing your business online. For example, you’ll need to consider search engine optimisation (SEO) techniques, completing and updating your Google Business Profile and getting Google to index your website, along with other forms of marketing.

Don’t worry though, you don’t have to do this all at once — having a professionally designed website is a great foundation for your brand and business.

How can a Squarespace or WordPress website design benefit my business?

In this day and age, customers expect businesses to have a website. An online presence can build confidence and trust with your clients and is a great place to showcase what you do. If you use your website successfully as a marketing tool, you’ll find you’ll easily make back the money you’ve spent on its design.

What does Louise love about Cirencester?

Cirencester is a beautiful Roman town in the heart of the Cotswolds, Gloucestershire. I love to visit Black Jack Street, an old historical street, with lots of independent eateries and gift shops; it looks wonderful at Christmas time. There are plenty of other shops around the town centre, from antique shops, and charity shops to cafes and other eateries. Markets are held regularly in the very centre of the town, just in front of the St. John Baptist church. There are lots of green spaces to walk around, and even an open-air swimming pool that is open in the summer months. Cirencester is definitely worth a visit!

“I recently hired Louise to redesign a series of workbooks for my primary coaching programme for high achievers. The level of service that she has provided has been outstanding!! The quality of her work is excellent and she is extremely thorough in her approach and meticulous about attention to detail. She regularly kept me informed, provided work promptly and did all of the above with a smile! I would use her again in a heartbeat. Thanks so much Louise!” — Kate H

“Louise designed some brilliant logos for my company. It was a pleasure to work with such a talented and passionate professional. Louise worked hard to fully understand my requirements and ensure complete satisfaction. The process was fun - I'm really pleased with the results and will be engaging Louise to design the company's new website.” — Darryn T

“Louise did a great job designing and creating my business website. I wasn’t very sure how I wanted it to look, just how I didn’t want it to appear. And she came up with a great design, making the process very easy. I had already prepared all the copy, and most of the structure, which helped the process along well. Louise clearly loves what she does and takes massive pride in her work. She is great to work with and is very easy going. If you want your website designing and creating, I can highly recommend you using Louise.” — James R

“I commissioned Louise to design the website for Kennedy Business Solutions. Louise set to work, created a new structure and then created a design that used the existing branding - fantastic. She is a designer that takes note of the words and aligns them with the design, something that some designers don't seem to understand.

Louise incorporated all the back end and support systems - Vimeo, HubSpot, Calendly and the rest. And then she made sure I could use them. She delivered a truly comprehensive service that has set up the site with the very best practice and technology. I'm thrilled with the website. She is outstanding in what she does, and does it in a very caring and supporting way. She makes sure you own the design and builds it with you.” — Sherril K

“Louise helped me with my website Pressie Heaven. I had, had some help previously and I had added my products myself, but Louise has done an amazing job of getting me over the line and adding some great additional feel-good factors/finishing touches, which I really wanted and appreciated. I found Louise, to be knowledgeable, very helpful and full of enthusiasm which is always good. She listens which is surprisingly refreshing and added some great ideas for me to implement and some with her support over time. We plan to continue working together and I really appreciate that support.— Veronica L

“I asked Louise to add visuals and format a 3,500 word document. She did everything I asked quickly, efficiently and with good humour. Flawless work that extended to two revisions. The real clincher is that Louise is also very IT literate. I couldn't be more pleased and Louise is definitely my go to Graphic Designer. VERY happy to recommend.” — Charles W
