A Showit template is where we start, not where we stop. Over four weeks, I reshape your sections, pages, and layout around your brand and your photos, with up to 8 pages, a blog, and a review of your copy. Made for coaches, wellness brands, photographers, and creative businesses ready for more than a template.

basic seo setup
including page titles, descriptions, and image text, so Google knows what you do and where you are.
Mobile design
Every page is designed separately for phones, not just shrunk down.

You found a Showit template you love, but you want it to feel like yours, not like the demo.
This is for you if:
Your business has grown, and you need more pages, a blog, or a layout that fits how you actually work.
You have brand photos you're proud of, and you want a website designed to show them off.
You want your copy reviewed by someone who knows what each page needs to do.
It's probably not the right fit if:
You're starting from scratch with your branding, photography, and copy. Those pieces need to be ready before your project begins.
You want a design built from scratch with no template. Fully custom design starts at $3,500.
You need a website fast and you're happy with your template's layout. Website in a Week will get you there in one week.

Your Website, Week by Week
You'll always know what I'm working on, what's coming next, and what I need from you.
The Week Before
We'll have your strategy kickoff call to go over your goals, your ideal client, and what each page needs to do. By then, you'll have chosen your template, completed the questionnaire, and uploaded your copy, photos, and brand elements.
Week 1: design direction and homepage
I review your copy, plan the layout of each page, and design your homepage. You'll send your first round of revisions, so we agree on the direction before the rest of the site is built.
Week 2: your pages
I design your remaining pages, restructuring sections so each one fits your content and your photos.
Week 3: blog and Second review
I design and set up your blog, and you review the full website and send your second round of revisions.
Week 4: polish and launch
I make your final round of revisions, finish the mobile design and SEO setup, run final testing, and launch your website.

A semi-custom website starts with a Showit template but doesn't stay limited to it. With The Elevated, I rearrange sections, restructure pages, and adjust the design around your brand and content, so you get a site that feels custom at a lower price and on a faster timeline than a design built from scratch.
Website in a Week keeps your Showit template's layout and fills it with your brand and content, for up to 5 pages with 2 rounds of revisions in one week. The Elevated reshapes the template around your brand and adds up to 3 more pages, a blog, copy review, and 3 rounds of revisions, over 4 weeks.

That's the goal of every move I make, including my own site, which I moved from WordPress to Showit. I've moved sites from WordPress and Squarespace, and wherever I can, I keep your page addresses the same, redirect any that change, and carry over your page titles and descriptions.
