Overview
I'm a first book author, with a second book on the way, so I feel I truly understand the needs of Authors looking to start this journey, or improve what they already have.
I run a digital agency specialising in website design, mobile app creation and social media. I create beautiful websites for many kinds of businesses, but as a very active member of Mark Dawson's Self Publishing Community, I want to help authors claim their space on the internet.
I completely appreciate that a website is an incredibly important tool for authors, to showcase their works and to collect data and mailing lists. They should have functionality and style. Be bespoke, and reflective of the Author and their work.
I am pleased to say that Mark Dawson and the team asked me to create the Module in the 101 training course on how to create an Author Website using WIX, so I am confident I know what I am doing when it comes to building a website for Authors.
I have created several websites for Authors, Restaurants, Public figures, Events and Charity Organisations amongst others, and some other work in the Self Publishing community.
I build Websites on multiple platforms from Word press, Wix, Weebly, Strikingly and Squarespace. I can give you advice and information on what works best for you. I also create stunning mobile apps for many businesses and organisations. The growth of Mobile apps is exponential, and it is important for anyone with a business or profile to be available on the App Stores. If you are interested in an App, then please contact me.
As I mentioned I am involved and work with Mark Dawson's Self Publishing Formula, and I am responsible for creating the SPF Mobile App. Mark also asked me to donate a website to his campaign to raise money and awareness for a friend of his that was suffering from Cancer.
Mark wrote a novella, (Phoenix) and all the money raised from the sale of this book were donated to the cause. I created the website for this Novella to help promote the book and give a 'one stop shop' for anyone who wanted more information about the Book and the cause. I also help with Social Media and I am happy to help with setting up accounts (on all platforms) and optimising them. I can also help with Social media growth and advice. Again, please contact me if you would like help with this alongside a website.
I would really love to chat to you about your project, so please do contact me and let me help! I am happy to work on ANY genre and will happily discuss your needs, no matter what genre you write in, or who your audience is. Let's build something great!

(about 5 years)
I create beautiful websites and mobile apps, to help our customers claim their space on the internet and on their customers/readers mobile phones.
I've created websites and apps for a number of Businesses (including Authors) and seen great success.
Now is the time to make sure your website is mobile optimised, and to have your listing in the App stores.
I pride myself on great customer service and great products. As a budding author, I am very sympathetic to the needs of Authors trying to promote their books, and I would love to help you put your work live on the web. I build Websites on multiple platforms from Wordpress, Wix, Strikingly, Squarespace and Weebly! I can give you advice and information on what works best for you.
I've worked with hugely successful Author Mark Dawson, and The Self-Publishing Formula and I look forward to adding you to our list.
Projects
Mark Dawson - (www.fightforphoenix.com) - Promotion for Novella - Phoenix
Mark Dawson contacted me to ask for help with a project that was created to raise money for treatment for a friend of Marks, suffering from Cancer. Emma had just given birth to a baby boy Phoenix, and Mark wrote a Novella to raise money for her treatment.
Mark needed a website to promote his book, that contained all the links to all the places that the book could be purchased, from Amazon, Kobo, iBooks etc. I created the Website for this purpose and to date, Mark has raised over £10,000 for this cause.
It was a pleasure to be part of this project and hopefully demonstrates our skills, and speed as Web designers.
I want to help Authors have beautiful websites for their profiles and their books, so please get in touch so I can discuss your project!
Mark Dawson's Self Publishing Formula Mobile App
Mark Dawson has created a huge Community of Self Published Authors, and to consolidate all of the assets from The Self Publishing Formula, we have created a Mobile App for them.
With the App you can watch and listen to the latest Podcast, you can log into any courses you have purchased, contact The Self Publishing Formula team via the app and be the first to get information and updates.
There is a great deal of functionality and has been downloaded many times. It is a powerful tool and available on all App stores, worldwide. We worked with the Self Publishing Formula to create an app that presented the users with all of their assets and information.
Pet Milestone Cards (www.petmilestonecards)
Pet Milestone Cards is a company that sells Pet Milestone cards to customers who would like to mark the memories of their Pet with cards at certain points of their development/life.
The website was designed primarily as an E-commerce website enabling customers to buy the cards from a clean, easy to navigate website.
The brief was that it was to be clear, fresh, and uncluttered. The idea was to showcase the product and make purchasing the product very simple.
Hustle Website and Mobile App - (www.clubhustle.co.uk)
Hustle is one of the biggest Urban Events in the UK and they wanted a website and Mobile app to promote their monthly event. The Website and the app needed to reflect the brand, host the latest music, info and contact details for each event.
The App is used to communicate to users using Push Notifications and also for special offers and info.
The Website is a multipage website, hosting the lastest videos, information, mixes and an E-commerce shop selling all kinds of clothing for Men, Women and Children.
The Maltings - (www.millbarandgrill.com - www.welovecarbon.com) 2 Websites & Mobile App
The Maltings is an entertainment venue with a Restaurant (The Mill Bar and Grill) and a Club venue (Carbon).
They asked for two websites, one for each of the key venues.
They also wanted a mobile app for both aspects of their business.
The websites are designed to give all the information that a customer may require including What's on, Menu's, fast contact and the latest news.
The App is used for Push notifications and to consolidate all their assets.
The brief was for fresh, mobile optimised websites that rank well and perform well for SEO.
BOSS:TALKS - (www.bosstalks.co.uk) - Website and Mobile App
A national social enterprise wanted a brand new website (And Mobile App) to promote their work.
The brief was a 'long-page' website and a fully functional App that hosted their work and latest content.
The app is used to send push notifications for the latest uploads and the website is designed as a landing page for users to find out what's happening with the Project.
The Website and App were designed to host and play the lastest podcast, allow fast contact, and collect data from interested parties.

He's ultimately professional and doesn't waste time but was personable and friendly during our conference calls. You'll need to book ahead to work with Stuart as he's in demand, but you will be satisfied with the results.
