Why You (Yes, You) Need a Website – No Matter What You Do
A frank explanation as to why professional website design, photography and branding can completely transform your success as a small business or creative individual.
Let me guess - you’ve been putting off creating a website. Maybe you’re relying on Instagram or TikTok to carry your brand. Maybe you think your business is “too small” to need one. Or perhaps you’re just overwhelmed by the idea of building something from scratch. I get it.
But here’s the truth: in 2025, everyone needs a website. Whether you’re a small business owner, a musician, an artist, a yoga instructor, a florist, a tattoo artist, or even a tarot reader—your digital presence matters more than ever. A website isn’t just a digital business card, it’s your online home. It’s where people go when they want to know who you are, what you do, and—most importantly—why they should trust you.
Social Media ≠ A Website
Don’t get me wrong—social media is fantastic for connecting with your audience and showing off your personality. But it’s not owned by you. Algorithms change. Accounts get hacked. Platforms rise and fall. Your website, on the other hand, is 100% yours. It’s permanent, professional, and completely customisable.
Imagine sending a client a clean, beautiful link to yourname.com instead of trying to DM them 15 reels and a pricing PDF. It’s the difference between showing up to a job interview in sweatpants versus walking in with a tailored suit. First impressions matter.
A Website Builds Trust and Legitimacy
Whether you’re selling handmade jewellery or booking gigs as a freelance cellist, having a sleek, cohesive website immediately boosts your credibility. People want to see that you’re the real deal—and a professional website says, “Yes, I take my craft seriously.”
With a custom-built website, you get to tell your story your way, with curated photos, testimonials, services, and a clear path for potential clients to book or buy from you. That kind of intentional design builds confidence. And confidence leads to conversions.
