Demos
Frontend-Only Demo:
- Showcases frontend functionality without backend implementations.
- Backend services (Node.js, Express.js, Supabase, Google OAuth) are referenced but not included in the demos.
- For client websites, full backend functionality can be implemented based on requirements.
Image Alignment & Responsiveness:
- Some images may appear cropped or unaligned in the demo.
- In real client projects, all images are fully optimized for responsiveness and design.
Performance Consideration:
- The project may feel slower because it includes four demo websites in one.

Whether you're a café owner, market stallholder or barber — having a website is one of the most important tools for your business. A website helps people find you, trust you, and buy from you.

FAQ
Key Terms
Domain

Hosting
The online space where your website lives. It keeps your site running 24/7.
Backend
The behind-the-scenes system that stores and manages data (e.g., forms, logins).
Supabase
A backend platform I use to handle things like contact forms, databases, and logins.
DNS Settings
Technical setup that connects your domain to your website. I take care of this.
Transfer
Moving control of something (like a domain or project) to your own account.
Collaborator Access
Temporary access you give me to help build your site inside your account.
Revision
A change or adjustment you ask for during the design phase.
Deployment
When your final website goes live and is publicly accessible.
Common Questions
To begin work, a 50% upfront deposit is required. The remaining 50% is due when the site is finished, before I deliver the final product.
Payments are made by bank transfer.
The upfront payment is non-refundable once work has started.
If no work has been done, a refund may be possible.
More details are in the Payment Terms section of my TOS.
Yes. Once the project is completed and paid in full, the website is yours. You own the content, style, and any accounts created under your name (like Supabase or Stripe).
If I bought your domain, I still technically own it — but I can transfer it to you if we agreed on that from the start.
Yes — if you created the account (e.g., Supabase, domain registrar, Stripe), you have full control. I'll just be added as a collaborator.
If I created something under my account, I'll manage it, but ownership stays with me unless transfer terms were agreed upfront.
Yes, if you purchase the optional admin dashboard, you'll be able to:
- Update text and images
- Add/remove services or FAQs
It's great for day-to-day edits. Layout changes, design tweaks, or SEO upgrades are handled separately.
Once the site is launched, any edits or fixes require a new paid request. I include unlimited revisions during the design/build phase, but after you approve and it's published, further changes aren't included in the original cost.
Definitely. I'm fine chatting via iMessage, Facebook, or Instagram — but email is where official communication happens.
That's where I'll send updates, approvals, access requests, and important info.
I'll cover the domain if it's under $25 — but I reserve the right to stop renewing it in the future. I'll give you notice via email and one other method.
For tools like Supabase, Stripe, Firebase, etc., you must create the account. I'll help set it up and be added as a collaborator. You'll be billed directly by those platforms.
I build clean, custom websites using:
- Supabase (for backend features)
- Squarespace (for domain/DNS settings)
- Integrations like Stripe, Google Maps, or email forms
Each platform is selected to match your project's needs — and where possible, you stay in control by owning the accounts.
No problem. If the site and backend are under your accounts, it's easy to hand off access to someone else.
If I built it under my account (Supabase or domain), transfer may not be possible unless we agreed beforehand. I won't block access, and I'll never sabotage your site.
Not by default. After the project is done, I don't provide automatic maintenance or updates — but I can work with you on a paid request basis if you need edits, support, or new features later.
