Pro Website Designer — and I've got a thing about websites done properly.
Got a big vision for your business? Here in the Yorkshire Dales, I design creative Squarespace websites underpinned by proper brand strategy — so your online presence doesn't just look beautiful, it actually supports your growth.
Meet Jane… Squarespace Web Designer Based in North Yorkshire
I've been building Squarespace websites for coaches, consultants, educators, and creatives who are ready to stop apologising for their online presence.
All of my services, are designed to help your business grow with clarity, confidence, and ease. Based near Harrogate, in rural North Yorkshire, UK 🇬🇧 and working with clients worldwide, I bring together thoughtful design, clear strategy, and practical expertise. Whether you’re ready for a brand-new site, rebrand, or want a trusted designer to refine and elevate what you already have, I’m here to make the process straightforward, supportive, and stress-free.
Before web design became my business, I was a lot of things.
My Path to Design & Strategy
Before launching my web design business, I wore a lot of hats—including corporate employee, brick-and-mortar salon owner, and global artist. But throughout it all, I’ve always had a knack for blending creativity with tech, dating right back to tinkering with websites in the early days of blogging, and desktop publishing before that.
When fellow small business owners kept asking me for help with their online presence, I realised where I could make the biggest impact. Today, I combine my creative eye with real-world business experience to build strategic websites that give you your time and clarity back, so you can get on with what you do best.
The thing is, a rubbish website costs you more than you think
I Get It… Running a Small Business is a Lot!
You started your business to do what you love, not to spend hours stuck in tech nightmares, website chaos, or endless to-do lists.
Your website doesn’t feel like ‘you’ (or worse, it’s out of date and holding you back).
You know your online presence could be working harder, but where do you even start?
You just want things sorted, without spending hours Googling how to fix them.
That’s where I come in.
With a blend of creative artistry, strategic insight, and digital know-how, I help business owners like you:
✦ Create a website that feels like home — somewhere that looks properly beautiful, runs seamlessly, and truly reflects you.
✦ Get clarity on what's working (and what's not) — so you're not guessing, you're growing.
✦ Stay on top of your website maintenance — with support that keeps things running smoothly, and takes the stress off your plate.
Because when your website and business support are sorted, you get more time, more ease, and more freedom.
My Approach…
Running a business isn’t always stress-free, but building a business can be aligned, empowering, and less overwhelming — especially when you have the right support
With this thoughtful approach, I help small businesses create digital spaces that are:
🌿 Visually stunning
🌿 Effortless to manage
🌿 A true reflection of your work and values
You need a strategy behind every project
🪶 Authenticity & Trust: Your website should reflect the real you. No gimmicks, just thoughtful, human design and honest communication that helps your dream clients instantly connect with your brand.
🪶 Collaboration & Partnership: Great results come from working with you, not just for you. Whether you know exactly what you need, or fancy a guiding hand, I'm right there alongside you.
✦ Creativity with Strategy: Your brand deserves design that’s beautiful, distinctive, and intentional — never style over substance. I balance the two, so you stand out and connect with the clients who matter most.
✦ Clarity & Purpose: From your messaging to your layout, everything’s rooted in clarity. Together, we’ll build a site that’s easy-to-navigate, properly structured, and works hard for your business.
✦ Encouragement & Ease: Tech overwhelm? Design indecision? I bring calm, clear-headed guidance to the whole process — because building your business should feel empowering, never stressful.
My Dream Collaborations as a Website Designer for Small Businesses
I work best with purposeful business owners who:
🌱 Are ready to properly invest in a strategic, professional online presence that reflects the brilliant business they've already built.
🌱 Value collaboration and are open to guidance — I'll lead the design and strategy, but you're happy giving feedback and making decisions along the way.
🌱 Feel confident with the basics (email, Zoom, Google Docs, uploading files), so our process stays smooth and focused on results.
🌱 Understand the value of investing in expert design and strategy, and want their website to actually support their growth — not just sit there gathering dust.
🌱 Care deeply about their work and the difference it makes, and want a website and brand that says so, clearly and easefully
If this sounds like your kind of collaboration, let’s have a chat. Together, we’ll create a website that feels like home for your brand — clear, strategic, and set up to help your business thrive.
Get To Know Me
I'm a warm-hearted, midlife Brit living in beautiful rural Yorkshire 🌿 — china mug-obsessed, dog-loving wife of nearly 25 years, and mum to three adults. Phrase-forgetter, avid reader, and your detail-loving Squarespace web designer and brand strategist.
I consider myself a lifelong learner and deeply curious. I'm passionate about reading, time in nature 🌿, cooking healthy meals, living a joyful "second half," and indulging in the good stuff — dark chocolate included. 🤎
I’ve been "organising" my desk since my dad bought me my first one at age 8 — and designing since 1997 using Quark, then Publisher, TypePad, Blogger, WordPress… so yes, you’re definitely in safe hands.
I’m an HSP, INFP (the Idealist), and #7 (the Enthusiast) on the Enneagram.
I find joy in life's simple pleasures. 🌱
Kind Words
“Jane worked creatively and patiently with us to develop a website that truly reflected our brand. She also worked tirelessly to resolve technical issues and effectively partnered with some of our other suppliers to seamlessly integrate the site with our other IT systems. She became very much part of the team and managed the project effectively using Asana. She is also very reliable and responsive to queries and questions. I would highly recommend Jane to build your Squarespace website”.
