Testimonials
I was so incredibly impressed with the work that Jo and Leeann did for me, designing my website. They were extremely professional throughout the journey of design and development. In particular, they listened carefully to the brief and produced an absolutely stunning and unique design, then kept me informed every step of the way, ensuring that each part of the journey was completed on time and to plan. Leeann’s design was so beautiful, and Jo is a technical wizard! I also love the fact that they gave me all the tools I need to keep this beautiful website up to date myself, whilst keeping the design consistent. I’m a client for their ongoing web maintenance service, too, which is invaluable. I now have exactly the website I dreamed of and couldn’t be more delighted!
Every writer needs a website to showcase their work and build a community of readers. With Made for Words, the process of getting my website online was very thorough, efficient and collaborative. Jo worked with me to figure out how I wanted my website to present me and my work, and she spent hours designing the site with me. Very patiently, she demonstrated how I can add content to the site myself, and she’s quick to respond whenever I need to make a change to the site that’s beyond my own technological capabilities. I thoroughly recommend Made for Words for any writer, whether you have a big portfolio of works to display or you’re just getting started.
