Websites for brands that want to look as good as their work.

Your website, planned around your budget

Send your brief with the budget you have set aside. I reply within two business days with the package and extras that budget covers. Every website goes through research, strategy, copywriting, art direction, design, build and testing, and most are live in 1 to 2 weeks.

Included in every website

Every package includes the parts that take owners the longest: the words, the page plan and the design. You send your notes, and I do the rest.

Already have a website? A redesign uses the same packages, and your current text moves across.

Already have a domain and hosting? I build on yours. If not, I set them up for you, with your business email.

Questions before you book

If yours isn’t here, ask it in your brief.

Which package is right for my business?

Count the pages you need. Most small businesses need about five (Home, About, Services, Gallery and Contact), so Lulu fits. If each service needs its own page, choose Johari. Schools, tour operators and organisations with many programmes choose Almasi. Not sure? Say what you offer in your brief, and I’ll tell you which fits.

How is my price set?

After a short brief. The price depends on the pages you need, your content, any extras such as a blog or a domain and hosting, and where your business is. You get a written quote with the full price before you pay anything.

Do you write the copy?

Yes. Copywriting is part of every package. Send notes for each page, voice notes are fine, and I write the copy in the words your clients use. You read it and approve it before it goes live.

Will my website look like everyone else’s?

No. It starts from one of my tested designs, then your colours, logo, photos and words go in, and each page is planned around what you sell. For a design made from scratch, choose Adimu.

How fast is my website ready?

Lulu is ready in 1 week, Johari in 1 to 2 weeks and Almasi in 2 weeks. The time starts once your notes, logo, photos and deposit are in.

How does payment work?

A 50% deposit books your start date and is non-refundable. The other 50% is paid before the site goes live, and until then it stays on a test link. Small extras are paid in full upfront.

When is my start date confirmed?

Once all your notes, logo and photos are in and the deposit is paid. Start dates go first come, first served, and no date is held without both.

What counts as a change?

One list of small tweaks inside the design you chose: text, photos, colours, spacing or the order of sections. A new design, more pages or starting again is a new project.

Do I need my own domain and hosting?

If you already have them, I build on yours. If not, I set up a .co.tz, .com, .net or .org address, hosting and up to 5 email boxes for you, renewed each year.

Can I edit the website myself?

Yes. It’s built on WordPress and set up in your name, and your handover notes cover the everyday edits. Or choose Tunza care, and I make small changes for you each month.

Will the website bring me more clients?

It’s built to, with a clear offer, visible proof and an easy next step. Results also depend on your offer, demand and how you follow up enquiries, so there’s no promise of a number of enquiries or rankings.

Do we need to meet in person?

No. Everything runs online, on WhatsApp, Zoom or Google Meet.

Book your start date

Tell me about your business and the package you have in mind. Start dates go first come, first served, and your date is confirmed once your notes, logo, photos and the 50% deposit are in.
