Managed Website Service for freelancers

A freelance website that makes a client comfortable sending the brief

Clients hiring a freelancer are taking a risk on one person. We build a site that shows your work and how you operate, then keep it running for £50 a month so you can stay billable.

What a client wants to see before they hire you

When a marketing manager or small business owner is thinking of hiring a freelancer, they usually already have your name from a referral, a LinkedIn post or a platform profile. What they do next is look for evidence: work you have done, the kind of clients you have done it for, and whether you seem organised enough to trust with a deadline.

A profile on a marketplace or a social network gets you some of the way, but it looks the same as everyone else's and sits next to cheaper alternatives. Your own site at your own domain lets you pick the projects that represent you, explain your process and set expectations on rates and availability before anyone gets in touch.

Plenty of freelancers mean to build their own site and never find the unpaid hours. We design and build it, host it, keep it secure and make your changes, so it stays current between projects without eating into billable time.

The pages

Pages that suit a freelance business

Designers, writers, developers, consultants and photographers all work differently, so we shape the site around you. These pages suit most freelancers.

  • Selected work

    A focused set of projects with a sentence or two on the problem and what you delivered. Fewer, well explained pieces beat a long gallery with no context.

  • Services

    What you actually take on, and what you do not. Being clear here stops you spending time on enquiries outside your skills.

  • How I work

    Your process from brief to delivery, how you handle feedback rounds and how you like to communicate. Clients who have been let down before read this closely.

  • About

    Your background, the sectors you know well and a little personality. People hire freelancers partly because they want to work with a particular person.

  • Start a project

    A contact form asking for the scope, timescale and budget range, so you can tell quickly whether the work is a fit.

Details we get right for freelancers

  • A domain that is yours

    Your domain name is included, along with business email at it. Invoices and proposals from your own address look more established than a free email account.

  • Portfolio kept current

    Finished a project you are proud of? Send us the images and a short description and we add it, so the site reflects your recent work, not the work from three years ago.

  • Availability notes

    When you are fully booked or opening up space next month, tell us and we update the text. Clients appreciate knowing where they stand.

  • Easy to find by name

    When someone searches your name after a referral, you want your own site at the top. It is built with search foundations in place from day one.

What a website customer says

Rated 5 out of 5

I am very pleased with the website David built for my Craft. He is reliable, all my requests are replied on the same day and he has great ideas to transform my thoughts into words and pictures. I have recommended his work to two of my friends.

Questions from freelancers

What is included in the £50 a month?

Design and build, a domain name, hosting, an SSL certificate, business email at your domain and ongoing text and image changes. There is no setup fee.

I am a designer. Can I have input on how the site looks?

Yes. The design is custom, so we are happy to work from your own brand, colours and references rather than imposing a look on you.

Can I keep my existing domain?

If you already own a domain, we can point it at your new site. If not, your own domain is included.

Do you write the copy for my portfolio?

Copywriting is not included. You send us the text about your work and services, and we lay it out and keep it updated when you send changes.

What if work dries up and I need to cancel?

There is no long contract. You can cancel with 30 days notice.
