Frequently Asked Questions

For new websites, I usually recommend Squarespace or Wordpress, depending on my clients’ needs, patience, and level of technical expertise.

However, in my 25 years as a website designer, I’ve used many content management systems, page builders, and website platforms. If you have already committed to a specific platform, or need a redesign, I’m happy to work with you on your current system.

All of it! I can code a website from scratch if necessary, so if your website builder has a place to add custom code, I can add little touches to really make your website stand out from the crowd.

You will need to provide the text and photos for your website. But, I have a guide to help you figure out what to write and resources to find images you can use legally.

And if you want custom graphics or illustrations on your site, I can design those for you.

It depends on the size of your website. If you go with one of my packages, the Basic Website takes about a week, the Custom Website Essentials package takes about 2 weeks, and the Premium Brand + Website takes about 4 weeks. If I provide a custom proposal it will vary.

However, timing also depends on your schedule. I only start working when I have all of the requested content back from you. That way, I’m better able to provide dates when I’ll be delivering your designs. And, I will need your feedback in order to complete any revisions. So, if life gets in the way - as it often does - and take longer to get back to me, the project can take longer than initially estimated.

Great question! Over the past 25 years I’ve taken all of my graphic design, web design, and project management skills and created my signature DONUTS Design™ Experience.

It’s an expertly managed and fun branding and web design process. There is plenty of attention, hand-holding, and none of the stress that can accompany design projects.

And there is FUN! We’ll laugh as we go along and celebrate your success when we’re done. Read more about it.
