About Dave

One person. No agency runaround.

Dave Does Websiting is deliberately small. You deal with me from the first conversation to the finished website — and afterwards, whenever you need me.

Hi, I'm Dave.

I build, fix and look after websites for small businesses. No account managers, no sales team and no mysterious technical department hiding behind a support ticket.

Why Dave Does Websiting?

Because getting a decent website shouldn't be complicated.

Small businesses need good websites just as much as bigger businesses do. What they don't necessarily need is a big agency process wrapped around them.

I've spent years working with business websites, ecommerce, online systems and the everyday digital tools businesses rely on. A lot of that has involved figuring out what works, what doesn't, and how to make things simpler for the people actually using them.

That's the thinking behind Dave Does Websiting: understand what the business needs, make a sensible plan, and get on with it.

If something can be explained simply, I'll explain it simply. If your existing website can be improved rather than replaced, I'll tell you. And you'll know what the work costs before I start.

verb. probably.
websiting.

The highly technical process of sorting your website out without making the whole thing more complicated than it needs to be.

Yes, websiting.

No, it's not really a word.

That's rather the point.

The web industry has enough terminology already. You shouldn't need to know your CMS from your CSS just to get a decent website for your business.

So I do the websiting. You get on with running the business.

How I work

Keep it straightforward.

Nothing revolutionary. Just a few things I think make working together considerably easier.

01

Speak to the person doing the work

From the first conversation onwards, you're dealing directly with me.

02

Plain English

I'll explain what matters without drowning you in terminology you don't need.

03

Sensible recommendations

I won't recommend a bigger job simply because it's a bigger job.

04

Still here afterwards

If you want ongoing help once the website is live, you can come back to the same person.

Are we a good fit?

Probably, if you just want somebody sensible to sort the website out.

I work with small businesses that want a professional website without turning it into a massive project.

You don't need a technical brief before getting in touch. A conversation about the business, what you've already got and what you're trying to achieve is enough to start.

This will probably work well if:

  • You want to deal directly with the person doing the work
  • You want clear advice rather than a sales pitch
  • You need a new website but don't know where to start
  • Your existing website needs sorting out
  • You'd like somebody you can come back to afterwards
Enough about me.

What does your website need?

New website, old website, broken website or absolutely no idea where to start — tell me what's going on.
