Website design

Web Design

Your website is often the first thing a potential client sees. If it looks outdated, inconsistent or hard to navigate, they’ll leave and find someone else. I design clean, mobile friendly websites that make a strong first impression and are built to convert visitors into real enquiries. The goal is simple: a website that looks professional and makes it easy for people to get in touch.

Frequently asked questions

A few things clients often ask before we begin

What if I do not like the design?

Every project includes 2 rounds of revisions. This means you have two opportunities to give feedback and guide the design in a direction that feels right for you. Before I begin, I ask you to complete a short questionnaire so I understand your style, your audience and what you want to avoid. Most clients are happy with the direction after the first or second round. If you would like further changes after your included rounds, we can arrange an additional revision round, quoted individually.

How do I get a quote?

Every project is different, so I work with bespoke pricing based on your specific needs. Simply get in touch with a few details about your project and I’ll come back to you with a tailored proposal.

How long does a project take?

Logo projects typically take 1 to 2 weeks. Website projects take 3 to 6 weeks depending on the size and how quickly content is provided. I’ll always give you a clear timeline before we begin.

Do you work with businesses outside Aberdeen?

Absolutely. I work with clients across the UK and worldwide. The entire process is remote friendly and I keep you updated at every stage.

What if I need something not listed here?

Get in touch and tell me what you need. I’m happy to put together a custom package that fits your project.

I wholeheartedly recommend Marysia! She truly knows her stuff when it comes to websites and, most importantly, she really understands her clients. She's incredibly helpful, patient, and understanding even with “difficult clients” like me. She created my website and continues to look after it. She always keeps an eye on everything and even reminds me when things like my domain are about to expire. You can genuinely rely on her 100%. Communication with Marysia is always easy and pleasant, and the whole collaboration is smooth and professional. If you're looking for someone to create and manage your website, Marysia is the best choice!
