Web Design in Salford & Manchester.

Approachable freelance web design for small businesses, start-ups and individuals in Salford and Manchester.

A local connection

Hello, I’m Jon

I’m a freelance web designer helping small businesses, start-ups and individuals get a presence on the web without agency-sized costs.

For over 10 years, I’ve helped customers across the UK get their businesses off the ground, with everything from small landing pages to portfolio websites and larger online shops.

What I can help with

Web design and support

Whether you need a new website or a hand with an existing one, here are some of the ways I can help.

WordPress web design

WordPress is my tool of choice because it makes it easy for clients to edit their own websites. I create modern, professionally made sites that are easy to manage and look good on different devices. It’s a cost-effective way to get your business online.

E-commerce websites

Looking to sell online? I can build you a modern e-commerce store where you can add products, keep track of orders and take payments. Once your store is complete, I’ll give you training on how to run it, so you can manage it yourself.

WordPress odd jobs

Already have a WordPress website that needs a bit of attention? I can help with odd jobs, patch-ups and a splash of paint here and there. It’s a handy option when you need work done on an existing site rather than a whole new website.

Under-the-bonnet coding

Page editors are useful, but sometimes it’s good to get your hands dirty with code. I’m proficient in HTML, CSS and JavaScript, which I use in my web design work to help create professional-looking websites.

Google Analytics

Curious about how many people are visiting your website? I can set you up with Google Analytics and a dashboard showing your daily traffic and where it comes from. It’s a useful way to see how your website is doing after it goes live.

Maintenance & security

A helping hand when things go wrong.

Once your website is live, I can take care of monthly maintenance if you don’t have the time. That includes updates, backups, clearing spam comments and keeping an eye out for malware.

Ask about WordPress support
No agency waffle

Small budget? Not a problem.

I'd rather help you get the right result than sell you something you don't need.

My clients come first. I believe in honest advice, clear communication and fair prices — especially when you’re running a small business or just need a little WordPress assistance.

One-off fixes welcome Low hourly rate No pushy sales pitch
A personal approach

I had the pleasure of working with Jon to help me set up the website for my recruitment company The Utopia Group Global Ltd. The company is an Executive Search and Permanent Recruitment firm specifically focussed on the Agriculture industry. As a boutique agency with a strong foundation in the industry and client-relationships I wanted this to be shown throughout the website. Jon was very willing to work with me to make this happen. He was adaptable, understanding and very innovative with how he was able to bring it all together. The website was completed very efficiently and to an amazing standard. I couldn't recommend him and his services enough!

I was very lucky to find Jon through a google search, as my website had a few technical and security issues and I was also looking for someone to look after site maintenance moving forward. From the moment of my first contact, he was quick to respond, friendly and very helpful. Nothing seems too much trouble for Jon and he’s happy to deal with updates as and when I need, but has also offered to show me how to do some of the updates myself. We are now thinking about changing the site to give it a slightly different feel and again, he has plenty of good ideas but is also happy to fit in to some extent with my own notions for my ‘brand image’ as a classical musician! I feel as it we’re just at the beginning of the journey with the site, but I look forward to working with him and am confident of achieving results that both the promoters I work with and I will like. He is also very good at making details on the site more ‘visible’ when it comes to google searches, which is important to me. The icing on the cake is that he’s very competitively priced. I’d recommend him 100% !

Jon is amazing at what he does. He has transformed my website & it is speedy, slick & looks super professional. As a result I get lots more bookings & have presence on google. Jon keeps you up to date at every stage of the process, he is responsive, reliable and nothing is too much trouble. Jon clearly cares about his work, he is a perfectionist & his attention to detail makes a world of difference. I will continue to use Jon regularly to keep my website up to date. Thank you so much Jon :)

I couldn’t recommend Jon more to anyone building their website or encountering some difficulties along the way, such as myself. Knowledgeable, to the point, excellent communication throughout! Great work and the price is a no-brainer! An absolute pleasure working with him!
