1. Research & Planning

First, we take the guess work out. Before we write a single line of code or start your website design, we research and plan. Who are your customers? Who are your competitors? What are your goals? We use this to craft a content plan that will get your customers’ attention from the start.

4. Marketing & Promotion

This is where most website design freelancers jump off the wagon. Once your website is turned 'on' and live for your customers, we've got to share it with the world! how we achieve this will depend on you, your budget and goals.

What our clients say

☆☆☆☆☆ 5/5

My old site hardly displayed in a contemporary format and its content reflected my services years ago. I wanted to rewrite almost everything and display more recent photos. Fortunately a friend recommended Thorn Creative, and after viewing previous work, I chose to proceed. Throughout the entire design process I have to say that Kirsty was professional, patient and friendly. I requested an initial face-to-face meeting, made various changes to text and photos, spent some time finalising contact details and was shown how to edit content myself in future. In these matters all my concerns were properly resolved. I also needed to have the website up and running by a deadline, and this was achieved without any stress. I feel the overall outcome is that I now have a stylish, modern website that’s easy to navigate. I am happy to promote my business with it and would wholeheartedly recommend Thorn Creative to anyone.

I met Kirsty from Thorn Creative at a small business meet up and was immediately impressed by her work. As a small business sometimes we try to do too much and I new I needed to out source for this job. A new website has made all the difference to my business. TC delivered more than I asked for.
