Websites for people who just want it sorted
You probably don't want to become a web designer.
You don't want to spend evenings wrestling with templates, hosting settings and technical jargon.
You just want a website that looks professional, works on phones, tells people what you do and helps potential customers find you.
That's where I come in.
I'll listen to what you're trying to achieve, recommend the simplest solution that fits, and deal with the technical stuff for you.
Need a simple website? Here's what it could look like.
These are starting points. I can adapt the design to your business.

Coffee shop bistro website
Opticians website
Most of my work comes from recommendation
I don't try to work with hundreds of clients.
I keep the number of projects I take on manageable so I can give people the level of service I'd expect myself.
That's probably why some clients have been with me for 10+ years.

A simple process. No faff.
01. Chat
Tell me what you're trying to achieve, what you've got already and what you'd like to spend.
I'll listen first.
If there's a free or simpler solution that will do the job, I'll tell you.
02. Build
Once we've agreed what you need, I'll get on with it.
You'll have the opportunity to review things as we go, so there shouldn't be any nasty surprises at the end.
03. Launch
I'll get everything ready, help you get it live and show you what you need to know.
And if you'd rather leave the ongoing updates to me, I can do that too.
You'll deal directly with me.
Hey, I'm Darren.
I'm a web designer based in Whitley Bay, and I've been working with technology for more than 30 years.
I started Coast Web Design because I think getting a good website shouldn't require a big agency, a huge budget or a degree in web development.
I'll give you straightforward advice, explain things in plain English and build the simplest solution that does what you actually need.
And if I think you can do it yourself, I'll say so.
Not sure what you need?
That's absolutely fine.
You don't need to know about WordPress, Google Sites, SEO, hosting or anything else.
Tell me what you're trying to achieve.
I'll ask a few questions, explain your options and give you an honest recommendation.
No hard sell. No obligation. No confusing sales pitch.
Just a chat.
Let's see what makes sense for you.
