From one of my projects
WalkHilbre is the tide planner I designed and built for Hilbre Island: crossing windows, tide conditions and an interactive route map in one place. The crossing card shows today's times live from WalkHilbre.

More complex websites & systems03 — Process
The process is deliberately small and focused: understand what matters, make the direction tangible, then build and refine the agreed scope.
See the full processI start with what customers need to know, what already works, which tools the business uses and what would make the project worthwhile.
I turn what I learn into a clear content structure, hierarchy, visual direction and customer journey before production begins.
Once the scope and deposit are agreed, the website is built responsively, reviewed in two focused rounds, tested and prepared for launch.
Planning a useful website?
The Page & Place guides explain small-business website costs, the information a local website should include, and why a website and Google Business Profile do different jobs.

05 — A personal studio
I’m Daniel, founder of Page & Place. I design websites and create photography for independent businesses that want to look professional online. I take a thoughtful, practical approach: clear communication, considered design and support you can rely on.
You speak directly with the person designing and building the site, so decisions stay clear and the finished work stays close to the real business.

06 — Questions
The questions people ask most. The rest, on content, platforms, search and bigger projects, are on the Pricing page.
That is the point of the process. The structure, type, colour, imagery and calls to action are chosen around your business, customers and existing brand rather than dropped into a generic industry template.
You provide the accurate business facts and any existing material. Page & Place helps organise it, identifies gaps and drafts concise website copy within the agreed scope. Extensive copywriting or research is quoted separately.
Usually, yes. Established services such as OpenTable, Fresha, Booksy, Calendly, Deliveroo, Just Eat, WhatsApp and Google Maps can normally be linked or embedded where the platform supports it. Third-party fees remain separate.
Yes. Website Care is required alongside every new Page & Place website for the initial 12 months. It costs £25/month or £250/year when paid annually, with one consolidated request and up to 30 minutes of content work each month. Larger or more frequent changes are quoted before work begins.
Yes. The domain remains registered to you or your business and you remain the registrant. Page & Place can manage DNS and renewals while providing Website Care, but the domain remains yours.
Once the website has been paid for, you retain the domain and can receive the complete website source code so another developer or hosting provider can take over. A normal source-code and account handover is included, with no standard release or transfer fee: the website is not held to Website Care. Additional migration or reconfiguration you ask Page & Place to perform is agreed first and charged at £50/hour.
