I launched Websites by Dave Parker back in July 2017 after I decided on a career change, moving away from IT Management. My purpose was simple, provide affordable, functional, beautiful websites to small and medium sized businesses.
Whilst I am based in Redhill in Surrey, my websites can be found up and down the UK as well as in the USA. However, most of my work is based in and around Surrey and Sussex.
Whether you’re just starting out on a new venture as a sole trader or small-to-medium sized business, or you feel it’s time for a refresh of your current website, I’ll be only too happy to help. I understand that your website is one of your most important assets.
The process of designing your website will be simple and straightforward, starting with you filling out my online Website Creative Brief which gives me the background on you, your business and what you need.
If you have any specific needs or questions that you want to ask me, feel free to get in touch.
From first contact to your website going live we will work together to deliver your perfect website. Here are just some of the reasons why Websites by Dave Parker should be your first choice when it comes to designing, building, and hosting your business website.
Each website is unique, just like the business or service it represents. The cost of your website will vary based on your specific requirements. Several factors that can affect the price include:
As a result, each website project is priced on an individual basis. If you'd like to get a rough idea of costs, then why not use my online website cost estimator.
The timeline largely depends on your specific needs and the complexity of the website. If your website is relatively straightforward with only a few pages, you should allow at least three weeks for completion. However, more complex websites may take up to eight weeks, accommodating time for you to request revisions to the layout as well as the integration of all text and graphics.
The most effective approach to developing your website will ultimately depend on your unique and specific needs. To ensure I have a thorough understanding of your requirements, I ask that you complete my Website Creative Brief. This detailed questionnaire will provide me with valuable insights that will help me determine the most suitable platform for building your website, whether that be WordPress paired with Elementor Pro or my WebHub System.
WordPress is an excellent choice for moderately complex websites that have a need for additional functionality through various plugins. This makes it particularly well-suited for projects that may require features like membership systems. In contrast, WebHub is tailored for less technically complex websites, making it a terrific option for individuals or businesses looking for a high-performing site that is easy to manage and navigate.
Regardless of the platform, all websites will be hosted on fast servers equipped with caching technology to enhance overall performance. However, it's important to note that WebHub websites, due to their streamlined design and the absence of the additional overhead typically associated with WordPress, tend to operate at an inherently faster speed. This distinction can make a significant difference in user experience, ensuring that your visitors engage with a website that loads quickly and operates smoothly.
To ensure that your website has the opportunity to be prominently featured in search engine listings, it is essential to implement a process known as Search Engine Optimisation, commonly referred to as SEO. This critical strategy involves optimising various elements of your website and its individual pages to improve visibility and ranking within search results.
SEO is a multifaceted and intricate subject, encompassing a wide range of variables and factors that can significantly impact the performance of any website. When I undertake the design and construction of your website, I will incorporate foundational SEO techniques to set you on the right path. However, if you are seeking more in-depth and advanced SEO strategies tailored to elevate your website’s presence in a competitive digital landscape, it may be advisable to consider enlisting the expertise of an SEO specialist.
As you will probably be aware, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is on the rise. Whilst some platforms claim to be able to build your website entirely using AI from just a few prompts of information from you, I do not use AI in this way. Your website will be built by me and not AI. For WordPress based websites, the ability to use AI is limited, however, there are elements of AI that I do use during the website build using my WebHub system. For example, I can use AI to remove artifacts from images or if you wish to improve the readability of any text you supply. I also use AI to help with the SEO of your website where appropriate.
I am located in the town of Redhill, Surrey, where I proudly operate my business from the comfort of my home. This enables me to maintain significantly lower overhead costs compared to businesses that need to manage traditional office spaces. By eliminating these additional expenses, I can pass on the savings directly to my clients, allowing me to provide high-quality services at more affordable prices.
Regardless of whether you are situated in Surrey, Sussex, or even further afield, I would be absolutely thrilled to assist you in designing and building your website. Your online presence is crucial, and I am dedicated to creating a tailored solution that meets your needs and exceeds your expectations.
