Do you have a WordPress website, or want one?
If you are ready to blog, or sell products online, or educate readers about your project or business, a WordPress site is perfect for you.
The ability to grow and expand is limitless. Start as simple or as complicated as you need to. Just like a painter’s palette, you have many elements within your business or nonprofit that you need to juggle and piece together before you can effectively “paint the picture” of what you do to your clients and readers.
HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?
As a rule, a WordPress website will cost you $500 up to potentially thousands. What determines the cost is what you need your website to do for you. Plan on paying for hosting, domain names, SSL Certificates, and contact privacy before you even begin to build your site.
If you are on a budget but need a site that has multiple features, determine what you need first and plan your site’s growth in stages. If you know what those stages are, you may qualify for a retainer build which will allow you to make a deposit and then make payments over some time while your website grows with your business.
What Clients have said ...
Building a website involves more than just choosing menu pages.
What You Can Expect
Created from Scratch
Together, we will:
Define Your Target Audience: Identify the specific group of people who are seeking guidance in balancing their professional and personal lives.
Choose a Relevant Theme: Select a WordPress theme that reflects the essence of your business or services and is visually appealing to your target audience.
Create Engaging Content: Discuss and create a plan to create compelling content that highlights the importance of assessing the needs of your target market and how it fits with your desired life plan.

Integrate Contact Forms: Make it easy for visitors to reach out to you by including contact forms for inquiries or scheduling appointments.
Offer Free Resources: Provide valuable resources such as e-books, blog posts, or webinars that address common challenges they may be facing that you have the solution for.
Optimize for SEO: Ensure that your website is optimized for search engines by using relevant keywords related to your business and/or services.
Include Testimonials: Showcase testimonials from satisfied clients to build credibility and trust with potential customers.
Call-to-Action Buttons: Use clear call-to-action buttons prompting visitors to take the next step, such as scheduling a consultation or signing up for a newsletter.
Mobile-Friendly Design: Your WordPress website will be mobile-friendly. We’ll discuss how this works and what you can expect regarding how your website appears on various devices.
The goal is to create a WordPress website that effectively promotes your business or services and helps you achieve harmony between your business and personal life. (Something that most people forget until it is too late and they are overwhelmed. Always remember that your website can grow with you as your business grows.)
Redesigning an Existing Site
Sometimes updating an existing website is possible if it’s created in WordPress. However, most websites require a complete do-over depending on your needs and goals. We’ll discuss this to determine the best approach.
IN THE MEANTIME, CONSIDER THIS in setting your expectations …
Referring to public websites as a desired layout will be considered, but not copied. The focus is on performance, readability, and SEO optimization. Any reference to features you like or don’t like is to be discussed before the project has begun, not after, and certainly not after it’s been completed.
If an outside webdesign is preferred that is other than what I provide, then I suggest you hire that particular web designer.
Web design is much like artwork. It is intellectual property and has the style of the webmaster who created it. It is illegal to copy artwork or reproduce it.
Once a page has been declared finished, it is checked off the list. Any remaining pages that need to be updated will be either waved by the client, or finished in a timely manner upon hiring my services.
Websites are always evolving and growing – over time. If changes and layout are requested repeatedly, then the project will need to be re-evaluated.
It is assumed that before a website is created, that the client will already have a clear idea of what is to be accomplished with the site, and what the focus will be.
If this is not clear, then it would be best to begin with coaching services first.
