About James

Big agency experience,
small business heart

Hi, I'm James. I've spent 25 years designing for brands like eBay, Barclays, Dell, and Heineken. Now, based right here in Cork, I bring that same care and expertise to local businesses — at prices that actually make sense.

I work directly with you. No account managers, no outsourcing, no hidden fees. Just honest work, delivered on time.

Common Questions

You asked, I answered

I'm not very tech-savvy — will I be able to update the website?

+

Absolutely. I build every site so you can update text, photos, and basic content yourself — it's like editing a Word document. I'll also record a short personalised video showing you exactly how. If you'd rather not touch it, the Care Plan includes monthly content updates.

Are there any hidden monthly fees?

+

No. The package prices are what you pay, full stop. You'll need a domain (€12–20/year) and hosting (€8–15/month) — both paid directly to providers, not me. The optional Care Plan at €45/month covers hosting, security, backups, and monthly edits if you'd rather have everything bundled.

What if I already have a website and just want to improve it?

+

Happy to help. I offer free 15-minute site reviews where I'll tell you honestly what's working, what's not, and whether a refresh or rebuild is the right call. No pressure.

How long does it take?

+

Starter sites are usually live within a week. Growth sites take 2–3 weeks. Complete packages with full branding take 4–6 weeks. The biggest factor is how quickly you can send me content (photos, text, logo etc.) — I'll give you a simple checklist.

Do you offer payment plans?

+

Yes. Standard split is 50% deposit, 50% on launch. For Complete packages I can split into 3 or 4 monthly payments — just ask.

Can you help with Google search rankings and social media?

+

Yes. Every site comes with solid SEO basics so Google can find you. Growth and Complete packages include Google Business Profile setup (huge for local businesses) and social media linking. I don't run ongoing SEO or ad campaigns — but I can recommend trusted local people who do.

What if I'm not happy with the design?

+

Every package includes unlimited revisions during the design phase until you're genuinely happy. I've been doing this 25 years — it's almost never happened that we couldn't get to a design a client loved.

Ready to get started?

Tell me a little about your business and I'll be in touch within 24 hours — often same day.
