Web design services

Five ways to work together.

Fixed scope and a fixed price, agreed in writing before we start. 50% to begin, 50% at launch.

  1. Single-page site

    One strong page for a business that needs to be online, soon.

    • One long page: about, services or menu, gallery, contact
    • Contact form, map and Google Business setup
    • Usually live within a week
  2. Multi-page site

    A full site for a business with more to show and say.

    • Up to 5 pages, designed and custom-coded
    • Copy polish, contact form, on-page SEO
    • Hosting, domain and analytics configured
  3. Upgrade

    For a site that looks dated, loads slowly or breaks on phones.

    • Redesign of your existing site, keeping what works
    • Faster loading, proper mobile layout, accessibility fixes
    • Your content moved across for you
  4. Booking site

    For salons, restaurants, studios and experiences that run on reservations.

    • Online booking connected to your calendar
    • Services, prices and availability you can edit yourself
    • Confirmation and reminder emails to your customers
  5. E-shop

    For shops that want to sell online, not just be found.

    • Product pages, cart and secure checkout
    • Card payments and order emails
    • You add and edit products yourself
After launch

Keep it running.

Optional extras, added to any project or on their own.

  • Maintenance

    Updates, backups and small changes every month, so the site never goes stale.

  • SEO

    Page titles, speed and Google Business tuned so local customers can find you.

  • Hosting & domain

    I find, set up and renew hosting and a domain in your name. You stay the owner.

  • Logo design

    A simple, professional logo and colour palette if you’re starting from zero.

Process

Two weeks, four steps, no surprises.

A typical multi-page site. Single pages move faster; booking sites and shops take a little longer.

  1. 01Day 1

    Discover

    A 60-minute call, then a written brief: who the site is for, what they should do there, and a page-by-page plan you sign off.

  2. 02Days 2–4

    Design

    Homepage design first, in the browser, so you review the real thing at real sizes. Two rounds of revisions are included.

  3. 03Days 5–8

    Build

    Custom-coded and tested on every screen size, from small phones to large monitors.

  4. 04Days 9–10

    Launch

    Domain, hosting, analytics and search console set up. A walkthrough video shows you how to edit content. Thirty days of fixes included.

About

One person, start to finish.

I’m Thomas Tzoumakas. I study computer science in Athens and I build websites for small businesses. When you work with me, you talk to the person who designs your site, builds it and answers your messages.

I care about three things: that a site is reliable, that it feels smooth to use, and that it looks good enough for you to be proud of it. I’d rather spend one more day getting a detail right than ship something that’s almost there.

I take on a few projects at a time, so each one gets my full attention from the first call to launch day.

Questions

Things people ask before they hire me.

How much does a website cost?

It depends on the size of the site and what it needs to do. After a short call you get a fixed quote in writing, and that figure doesn’t change unless the scope does. 50% to start and 50% at launch.

Can I update the site myself afterwards?

Yes. Text, images, blog posts and menus are editable through a simple content editor. Layout and design changes go through me, so the site keeps looking the way it should.

Do you do the writing and the photos?

I edit and structure your copy as part of every project. Full copywriting and photography are available as add-ons.

What about hosting and domains?

I set everything up in accounts that belong to you, so you’re never dependent on me to keep the site online. Most sites host for a few euros a month.

What happens after launch?

Thirty days of fixes are included with every build. After that, you can book changes as needed or take a small monthly plan for updates, backups and monitoring.
