My Background
I am a website designer, content creator and SEO specialist based in South Wales with extensive experience working online.
I have spent over 15 years working on various digital projects in the voluntary sector and Local Government before launching my freelance career.
Initially started my online business initially as a side hustle, I’ve also developed a network of successful income-generating websites and blogs using SEO, Pinterest and Social Media to drive traffic. I’ve since monetised this content using affiliate marketing, brand partnerships and selling digital products.
I now help other individuals, small businesses and charities improve their websites and wider online presence, using the latest digital best practices and up-to-date technology.
My Core Skills
Web Design
Specialising in WordPress, small business websites and blogging, I’m proficient using HTML, CSS and JavaScript to make websites look and behave exactly how they’re supposed to.
Content Creation
Digital content is my bread and butter. I’m mostly experienced with blog copywriting, affiliate marketing, Pinterest and short-form video content.
Data Analysis
Careful data analysis allows me to make data-driven decisions about my online content and wider marketing efforts.
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)
My income-generating websites get over 80% of their traffic from organic search engines. I’ve picked up a lot of SEO best practices along this journey, and studied the way search engines work for personal interest since their inception back in the ’90s!

I will work with you to develop a strong strategy for your website, developing bespoke training packages and offer direct support with your organisation’s digital presence. Also, I’m able to provide responsive website design and development using the latest technologies, technical audits and SEO consultations.
As a content creator, I believe that all information online should be easy to find, understandable, accessible, truly engaging and informative. I work using a user-centred approach, meaning that your online customers or audience are always the focus.
I aim to empower other business owners to become content creators.
