Why hire a web designer instead of doing it yourself?

Today there are many platforms like Squarespace that promise that anyone can create their own website. And that's true, up to a point. But if you're building a brand, selling your services or products, or just want your website to work for you... doing it on your own can be more expensive than it seems.

Here's why hiring a professional web designer can save you time, headaches and, above all, help you get better results.

1. Your time is valuable

You could spend weeks testing templates, troubleshooting technical issues or trying to make everything look "just right". Or you could invest that time in what you really do best: your project, your art, your business.

As a designer, I already know the platform, I know how to take advantage of it and how to quickly solve what may seem like a puzzle to you.

2. It's not just about "looking pretty.

A website must have strategy: clear structure, intuitive navigation, well-placed calls to action, connecting text and design that communicates your personality or brand.

It's not just "drag and drop". It's thinking about how to convert visitors into customers, how to highlight what you do and how to guide the user to what you want them to do.

3. Customized design, not generic

Yes, you can choose a template. But what will make your site look professional and unique is the way that template suits you: colors, typography, content layout, images, style.

I am in charge of translating your essence into a coherent, harmonious and customized site.

4. You avoid mistakes that can cost visibility

A poorly configured site may not appear in Google, look bad on the mobile or take too long to load. All of these things drive visitors away.
I make sure your site is optimized from the start so that it not only looks good, but works well.

5. Accompaniment + support

You are not alone. During the process, I accompany you, I advise you, and once finished, I explain how to update it or, if you prefer, I can continue helping you to maintain it.

Plus, by working with me you get extra benefits like up to 6 months free trial at Squarespace and a 20% discount on your first year.

In summary:

Creating a website may seem easy... but creating a good website -functional, aesthetic and strategic- is another story.
And that's exactly what I do: help you have a website that represents and positions you.

If you are about to launch a project or renew your online presence, let's talk. Designing your website can be much easier (and prettier) than you think.
