e-Commerce website for BeerStork, designed and built in collaboration with Creative Wilderness.
I have built online shops for a range of small businesses selling everything: from clothing and dog food to model trains and beer.
I typically build online shops using WooCommerce, which is widely regarded as the best eCommerce tool for WordPress websites. You can easily add, manage and categorise your products via the admin area. You’ll also get an automatic email notification when you’ve sold something or when stock is getting low.
It also allows your customers to create an account, so they can track their orders and save their delivery details to make future purchases quick and easy.
WooCommerce also allows more complex functionality, such as creating sale vouchers, managing postage costs, and taking recurring subscription payments.

What my clients say...
If you're looking to update your website or want one making for your business then go and see Paul.
Paul is a really friendly, nice guy whose passion for what he does comes across as soon as you meet him which made me feel at ease straight away.
When it came to the website design, I felt he was really interested in my ideas and if there were a way to improve them he always had great ideas of his own.

My design process
Over the years I have honed a web design process that runs smoothly and results in the best possible result for you. It has four tried and tested phases.
1. Scoping
We meet in person or via Skype for an initial consultancy session to chat about your business and how your new website can help achieve your short and long-term goals.
After this I will send you a proposal outlining the deliverables, requirements, schedule and payment terms. This is our product specification.
2. Wireframing
I create unbranded layouts to establish how the website will be structured and where each piece of content will go.
I’ll explain the overall site layout to you and show how my designs will help your customers to easily complete their tasks as well as improving your chances of showing up on search engines.
3. Full Designs
Next, the wireframes will then be worked up into full web designs by applying your existing branding.
If needed, I’ll work alongside a specialist graphic designer to create your new brand guidelines.
4. Website Build
Once the designs are approved, I’ll build your functioning website. A development server will be set up for testing and for you to add content before the new live site is launched.
I’ll give you personal training to make sure you know how to use the admin area of your site.
Post Launch and Maintenance
To help you get the most from your website after it’s launched, I also offer additional Google Analytics analysis services as well as training workshops.
Schedule & Pricing
