Your website, run for you by someone who actually knows how.
Most business owners do not have the time, or the inclination, to log in and update their own website. So it goes stale. Prices drift out of date, the team page lists people who left, the blog has not moved in two years. I become your outsourced website manager, handling every update and improvement so your site stays current, accurate and working hard.
Your website is one of your biggest assets. When did you last actually update it?
A website is not a "build it and forget it" project. It needs feeding: new prices, new services, new photos, fresh blog content, updated opening hours, the latest offer. But you are busy running the business, and logging into WordPress to make a change is either something you never get round to, or something you are nervous about breaking.
So the site quietly falls behind, and every month it does, it works a little less hard for you. Sound familiar?
I become your website manager, without the cost of hiring one.
You email me what you need changing, and I handle it. Updating a price, adding a new service page, publishing a blog post, swapping photos, adding products, fixing a typo, putting up a seasonal banner. Whatever your website needs to stay current and effective, I take care of it, usually the same day.
It is like having an in-house website manager on the team, with 20 years of web and digital experience behind every update, for a fraction of the cost of employing one. You stay in control of what goes on the site. I handle actually making it happen.
What I handle for you:
- Content and page updates
- New pages built and added
- Blog and news posts published
- Product and price updates
- Photo and image changes
- Adding reviews and testimonials
- Seasonal banners and offers
- Menu and navigation changes
- Broken link and error fixes
- Plugin and software updates
- Speed and performance tweaks
- Monthly check-in and suggestions
A website that always reflects your business as it is today, current, accurate and improving, without you ever having to log in or learn how it works.
Simple to use, from day one.
A quick handover
I take secure access to your website, whatever it is built on, WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Squarespace or something else. I review how it is set up so I can work on it confidently and safely, and take a backup before touching anything.
You email what you need
When something needs changing, you just email or message me in plain English. No forms, no ticketing system, no jargon. "Can you update our prices", "add this new team member", "publish this blog post". That is all I need.
I make it happen
I make the change properly: correctly formatted, on-brand, mobile-checked and SEO-friendly. Most everyday updates are turned around the same day. Larger jobs like new pages are scoped and scheduled with you first.
I keep it healthy
In the background I keep your site updated, backed up and secure, the same care a maintenance plan provides, so you never have a stale, broken or vulnerable website.
Monthly check-in
Once a month I take a proper look at the site and suggest improvements you might not have thought of, content that could rank, pages that could convert better, anything looking dated. You decide what to action.
An in-house website manager, without the salary.
Hiring someone in-house to manage your website properly costs £30,000+ a year, and most small businesses do not have enough website work to justify a full-time role anyway. Paying a developer by the hour for every small change adds up fast, and makes you reluctant to ask.
A monthly website management plan sits neatly in between: ongoing, dependable, and far cheaper than either alternative. You get a known monthly cost, a website that is always current, and one experienced person who knows your site inside out.
What clients say.
"Searching for website designers gave us a long list to choose from, but we're so glad we found Richard at Harrison Mann. He's been incredibly helpful with digital marketing advice and support, and thanks to him, we've now got a solid plan in place to boost footfall at both of our salons."
"We wanted more control over our website, as we'd been relying on another agency to make updates. Being able to change content ourselves quickly was important, and the custom WordPress website now lets us do just that. The new site has already helped boost our sales."
"After opening our new flooring showroom, I knew we needed a strong online presence. Finding the right website designer in Bradford made all the difference. We now have a great site that shows up locally for the keywords our customers are searching. It's the little percentage improvements that the team have really helped us with, we're already seeing more people coming through the doors."
