A Glimpse of What It’s Like to Work with Me

"I had the pleasure of working with Melissa on several website projects, where I was the Project Manager and she was the Head of Development. From day one, Melissa impressed me with her technical expertise and her ability to lead her team with kindness and care.She not only delivered amazing work but also went above and beyond to ensure both the team and the clients were supported every step of the way. Her leadership created a space where everyone felt valued, and her dedication to quality made every project better.Melissa is the kind of person you want on your team; she’s talented and genuinely invested in the success of everyone around her. I can’t recommend her enough!"
When I think about the conference, I don't just think about the amazing neurodiversity session we delivered, but I also think about the rehearsal session we did together. 8 supportive people in a room, just helping each other be ourselves in whatever way we needed at that point in time. Makes my heart warm. Dream team.

Just wanted to say thank you so much for all the excellent work you’ve done for us, here at Westbere Preschool. We love our new website and we’re finding it really easy to edit and add to, as required. Your recorded training video was invaluable at first, and made it much easier to learn how to create our own posts and pages. We love the font and the graphics and we think the new site really reflects us as an organisation. We’re especially fond of the posts feature that allows us to communicate directly with our families and supporters.We’ve always been able to contact you for support and you’ve created complex features such as hyperlinks and social media feeds when requested as we aren’t very tech savvy!

She has a great attention to detail and keeps stakeholders / interested parties abreast of the current progress or any impediments. Mel is value-led - she makes sure that the team morale around her is high and that she is pushing to be her best-self."

Thank you for facilitating the creation of the Neurodiversity Guild. I think we can make a real difference for people with interesting and cool neurodiversities within iTech, and you were the one of the first people to suggest getting together to do something about it.

Mel I just wanted to say thank you for being such a star from day one. You started the work in totally new company, team and with new stack and you were still able to contribute in shaping our ways of working and making development decisions. It was nice to see how much and how fast you learnt and how dedicated you are. You are super easy to talk to and work with, it's amazing to have you in the Team!

FAQs

My most frequently asked questions answered

How long does it take?

On average, it takes about one month to go from onboarding to launch. This is dependent on the communication speed between the client and I.

What is a shop fee

When you set up a e-commerce website you will encounter shop fees from the platform you use. Usually, the e-commerce itself and your payment provider like Stripe. Each will have its own % so you should consider this when pricing your products.

Why don't you build on WordPress

WordPress is an open-source project that anyone can access. So, for example, hackers can go into the code base, identify any cracks in the system and use that to exploit WordPress users. WordPress sites are amongst the most hacked in the world.

Despite this, 70% of the web uses WordPress because it is free. In its infamy, it was designed as a blogging platform; it was not designed to do what it is used for now. If you want to make a website that sells products or services then you can but you will have to buy plugins or services that allow you to do that. By installing 3rd party themes and plugins your site can become bloated which makes it extremely difficult to improve the loading speed which is a big SEO detriment as it is a key metric to which Google will rank your site.

How easy is it to edit?

It is easy to edit your site. Simply add ?edit to the end of your URL and log in. Once you have logged in you will be able to:
1. Update all the content
2. Update all the images
3. Add/Edit CMS items
4. Edit the settings of each page
5. See form data
6. Edit the favicon

You can check out what it is like to edit a site here.

What is best to message you or email you

E-mail is always prefered method of connection because it is easier to keep track and it helps with boundaries of working hours.

What is hosting with help

Website hosting is paying for the server to host your website, somewhere in the world your website files live on a server which is on 24/7. You or your web provider must pay for this service to keep it available for people to access.

I provide help to update your website or to give you ideas on how you could make it better. This includes: Updating content, updating images, adding new sections to pages and fixing any bugs.

New pages will be separately priced.

How does payment work?

After a quote is agreed, the payment process will work in milestones or as a fixed monthly fee over 12 or 18 months.

Why do I create new content?

If you have had a website previously it is likely that your website content hasn’t been updated in quite some time. During this time your company has grown and evolved and your target audience might have changed. While we can take essential content from your previous site we will write new content that you will sign off before it goes live.

Why do I give you tutorial videos?

There is nothing worse than being handed a new website and then having no idea how to change or update it.

When you launch a site with me you will also get tutorial videos that you will be able to access 24/7, which will take you through how to update your site and how to request something new.

Therefore, you are not waiting for me to update it for you.

Still have questions?

I would love to hear them.
