Website Design for MedSpas, Salons and Skin Care Pros
Don’t listen to anyone that tells you don’t need a website for your beauty business.
Some people argue social profiles are enough, but they just aren’t. Without a website, you’re missing out on valuable traffic. Plus, you need a place to call your own. A place where you control the content and that you OWN!
Potential clients are looking online to find your business.
Welcome them with a professional website that not only looks great BUT also makes them WANT to book with you and gives them the chance to book immediately!
Website design can be overwhelming. When you work with me, I will take you step by step through the process, reduce overwhelm and deliver an awesome end result. Here’s how my development and design process goes:
Discovery Call
The first step in my web development process is a Discovery Call. During this call, I’ll learn more about your business, discuss your needs and determine if Squarespace is the right fit for you. Then, we start to work through what you need on the site.
Information Gathering
Once we determine what you need, I begin gathering the information I need to start writing your content and building the site. I have multiple forms I use to help you stay organized and keep the process efficient.
Content Writing
With this information, I get to work on writing all the content that will appear on your site. I send each page to you for approval so you can make sure your services and business are represented as you want them to be!
Design & Development
Once content is approved, we move on to the fun part, design and development. To start, we create two pages for you to review and establish a design direction. Once we have approval on your design direction, we build out the rest of your site!
Launch & Training
When the site is fully built, you’ll have another chance to review it and then we launch it! Once the site is live, I do a one hour training with you to show you where things are on the site so you can make any changes you feel comfortable making on your own and we’re done!
For beauty business owners, Squarespace is my preferred platform for design. Here’s a blog post that explains the difference between Squarespace vs. WordPress.
Not to worry though, we’ll figure out which is best for you when we talk.
Thinking of doing it yourself?
Sure. You could totally do that. Squarespace is a user friendly platform that may clients choose to DIY their site.

If you get in to the process and find that doing it yourself, just isn’t going to work, or you just know you don’t have time, create your account, then contact me!
I can jump in where you need me!
Here’s answers to some of the most common questions I get asked about my website design services.
How much do you charge for a website?
Prices vary depending on the functionality you need and how many pages you need. In general, when I’m writing all the content and designing the site, a Squarespace site starts at $3,500 but I highly recommend you contact me for a personalized quote.
Why can't I just direct people to my social profiles?
For starters, you don’t own your social profiles. This means you don’t have full control over them and if a platform shuts down or changes how they operate, it will impact your business. With a website, you control all aspects of what your clients see. Next, having your own site is important for SEO. If a client is searching online for your services, an optimized site can help them frind you.
How do I know what I need?
That’s all part of my process. We’ll do a consultation call and I’ll help you determine what you need the site to do today. We’ll also discuss what your plans are for growth to ensure what ever we build for you can grow along with your business. I will explain the pros and cons of each platform and help you determine which would be right for you.
Where do all the photos come from?
If you have the budget, I recommend you work with a local photographer to do a branded photo shoot of you instead your business, working on clients. If you don’t have the budget with that, we can find stock photos that are in line with your branding standards.
Do you guarantee my site will show up in Google search results?
No, unfortunately there are no guarantees that your site will rank. Ranking on Google is something that happens over time with a consistent strategy. It’s never a “set it and forget” thing when it comes to Google search rankings. We have no way of controlling how Google places your site. With your initial site build, we lay the foundation for success and we can help you grow from there, or you can work on it on your own over time.
Do I own my site?
Yes! When we build a website for a client, the domain and all other accounts associated with it, are put in your name. When the build is complete and you’ve signed off, we hand over all your logins and passwords so you can manage the site as you see fit. Be cautious of a web developer that doesn’t want to provide this info!
Do I have to hire you to make edits?
You don’t HAVE to, but you can. All of the sites we create are built in systems that don’t require knowledge of coding to edit. At the end of new website build, we provide a tutorial on how to make basic edits. With that info you should be able to make simple changes. If you get stuck, we’re just an email away!
