Website creation for Freelancers
If you're self-employed and want to develop your online presence ?
I'll create an easy-to-use website that showcases your services and skills.
Why choose me to create your professionnal website ?
I know what it's like to start up and run a business on your own.
By entrusting me with the creation of your showcase site, you give yourself a professional online presence that reflects your image and is optimized to reach your audience. I give you the keys to managing your site's content, and take care of all its technical management.
Working with me also means choosing a site that stands out, that's eco-designed, accessible, RGPD-compliant and without a cookie banner to spoil your visitors' browsing experience.
I'm also here to advise you and answer your digital questions - even those that don't directly concern your website.
Commitments at the heart of my approach
Because owning a website means having a responsibility towards its visitors and its impact, I adopt good design practices.
Open source
The choice of self-hosted solutions to keep control of your data without tying you to a proprietary solution.
Eco-design
I follow the web eco-design principles set out in the French RGESN to limit the carbon footprint of your online presence.
Accessibility
Compliance with good accessibility practices as set out in the RGAA.
A human approach
I'll support you during and after the creation of your site.
Examples of responsible websites for your business
Below you'll find a exemples of businesses in which having a responsible, well-designed website is essential. This list is not exhaustive, I can create solutions according to your needs. I can also check out some case studies in my Portfolio!
The advantages of having a website for your freelance business
With a custom website, you have the ideal and unrivaled solution for presenting your business and generating leads for your business. A well-designed site is a sales agent working for you every day of the year, enabling you to :
- showcase your services or products
- introduce yourself and humanize your approach
- share your experience, your portfolio, or testimonials from former customers (if you’re just starting out, they can easily be dynamically integrated later on)
- offer your visitors a simple way to contact you or book an appointment with you
- build your audience with a dedicated newsletter tool
- … and much more besides
Having a website linked to your business name (even if you operate under your own name) is a huge advantage that will immediately make you stand out from the crowd.
Whether you’re offering your services/products to the whole world, or just a small geographic catchment area, a customized website is an investment that quickly pays for itself.
Increase your conversion rate
You’ll convert your visitors far more effectively than through social networks or by dropping off business cards near you.
Not that these strategies are ineffective.
In fact, they’re necessary at the start of your sales tunnel. Keep in mind that on your site, you have your audience’s full attention. You can go into detail and show what makes your offer unique.
Gain in professionalism
As well as having your own business addresses linked to your domain name, you have a real piece of Internet dedicated to your business, professionally designed to create a “Wow” effect for your future customers.
Between several competitors with similar offerings, a prospect will always tend to favor the one with the most professional image. Because that’s a sign that you take your business seriously and are invested in its success.
Free yourself from algorithms
Tired of spending hours battling on LinkedIn, Youtube and Instagram to gain visibility? Digital marketing can be time-consuming, but if it’s done right, it can bring great results.
The problem is, if you stake your entire online marketing strategy on proprietary social networks, you also risk losing everything if changes in the algorithms impact you, or these networks are replaced by others!
Then you’re left with nothing, having to start all over again and relying on more than just word of mouth.
A website combined with SEO work brings you reliable visibility and traffic. It complements your marketing strategies to gain visibility and enables you to “convert” effectively.

Sandrine Paunet

I am extremely satisfied with the work of Louis, who designed my website.

Thanks again, Louis!
Cécile Breton
Editor-in-chief of the scientific journal Espèces.
We called on Louis when we were experiencing serious difficulties following the hacking of our site which, because it brings together the vast majority of our sales, is our vital organ. We were fortunate to find, in an emergency, a partner of great professionalism, methodical, respecting deadlines, communicating clearly and who, moreover, adhered to our values and our attachment to the preservation of the environment. He created an eco-designed site and quickly adapted to our publishing profession (indexing of articles, online articles, etc.) and to our specific online sales needs (several types of subscription, purchasing process intuitive, etc.). Our new site meets our requirements (sometimes a little picky) from an aesthetic point of view, it is simple, beautiful, fast and functional! Louis even exceeded our expectations by helping us improve the marketing thinking of our magazine. “At least but not last”, he was always there to provide quick answers to our difficulties or even just our concerns.

Ultrasound clinic
Louis understood our company's needs from the outset, and even went beyond them. The site is very well designed (and aesthetically pleasing), and booking appointments online is intuitive and easy for everyone. Louis was very attentive to the changes I requested, and responded brilliantly. He's available and very efficient, and the maintenance is exemplary.
I highly recommend him, and thank you again for this excellent professional work.Coline Madral

Louis is extremely professional and efficient, and the communication was perfect. The website he designed for me is exactly what I wanted, and I'm really satisfied. Thank you so much!

How much will my website cost as a freelance?
The cost of the service will depend on your needs and expectations, the amount of content (and therefore pages) to be created and optimised for your business, and the features to be implemented.
For a simple ‘business card’ website with a few customised pages, a contact form and an appointment booking system, you should expect to pay around €1,500.
Why create your own WordPress site as a freelancer?
A personalized website allows you to showcase your work in a space that is uniquely yours and that reflects your personality.
Instead of relying solely on social networks, which are limited in terms of functionality and whose effectiveness fluctuates over time, a website helps to establish your professionalism and generates a new flow of leads.
A website evolves with your business, allowing you to add new features over time.I need to create my brand image. Can you help me?
Defining your visual identity is a key stage that will have an impact on your image, both on your website and in your communications on social networks.
We can create these elements for you, or use existing ones for your site if you already have a graphic designer who has produced these elements.Once my site is online, what do I do if I have technical problems?
We strongly recommend that all our customers, whether freelancers or companies, subscribe to one of our website management plans once the site is up and running.
We’ll manage all the day-to-day technical tasks for you: hosting, monitoring, security, updates, backups, all kinds of optimisation, and you’ll also benefit from our agency licences.
Our management plan includes our bug-fix guarantee.
Of course, you remain in control of managing the content of your site, and we are at your disposal if you have any questions.
If you decide to manage your site and its hosting yourself, we will point out the important tasks to consider to ensure its longevity, and assist you with its migration.I need to share my diary online so that my prospects can book online. Is this possible?
Yes, it’s a common request from freelancers.
We use a lightweight open-source solution with no tracking cookies that synchronises with your current diary solution to display available slots on the days and times of your choice.
Everything is automated, for as many types of appointment as you like.
And there’s no subscription to pay (unlike Calendly).
