Website Design & Development Services

In today’s increasingly interconnected world, establishing a website presence is an invaluable tool to increase your profile, promote your business or simply share your quilts with a wider audience. I have been building websites since 2002 and offer affordable website design and development services producing websites that are attractive, functional and easy to navigate.

Depending upon your individual requirements, I can also assist you in: domain name registration; selection of webhosting services; preparation of images; search engine optimisation; uploading the files to the relevant server; and ongoing maintenance.

In addition to WordPress and Woocommerce, I am familiar with Squarespace, Ruzuku, Mailchimp, Gravity Forms and Jotform.

For this website, I use and recommend:

  • WordPress.org – WordPress is not just for blogging.  It is a powerful content management system.  What’s more, it’s free and easy to use.
  • StudioPress Premium Themes on the Genesis Framework –  the Genesis Framework software sits on top of WordPress to manage the appearance of the website and other functionality. I’m using the Showcase theme.   Paying for a Genesis premium theme, a one time purchase with unlimited updates, makes it even easier to design, maintain and update my website.

Contact me to discuss your website needs.

Some of the above links are affiliate links, meaning I may receive a payment or other benefit if you use my link to make a purchase (at no extra cost to you). I only recommend products and services I strongly believe in and use myself.

I acknowledge that I live and create on the land of the Darkinjung and Guringai people and recognise their continuing connection to this place. I pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging and extend that respect to all First Nations people.
