“I worked with SortaSystems to design and build the brand-new website for my business, Sammy’s Ceremonies and I couldn't be happier with the result. I needed a custom website that felt warm, personal, and inviting while still being fast, modern, and easy for couples to navigate on mobile. Evan took the time to really understand my business and handled the entire web development process from start to finish. Since launching, I’ve already had amazing feedback and my enquiries have significantly increased. Would highly recommend!”
“Evan created a website for me within 3 working days. The communication was fast and he listened to everything I wanted and helped me when I needed it. He explained everything clearly and offered extra support and advice. I am extremely happy with the final result. Thank you so much!”
See our work
Each one runs on its owner's own address. Open one on your phone and try the buttons.
OP Dynamics
Dr Rupert A. Hayles Jr. advises presidents, CEOs and executive teams. We moved the site off shared WordPress hosting onto a fast static build, with pages for the advisory work, speaking, insights and books, and a page to book a strategy call. A redirect map keeps every old address working.

The Center for Emotional Development
The Center runs emotional intelligence assessments, coaching and certification courses. Its site moved off Squarespace into the same build as OP Dynamics and keeps its own address. A buyer books a course place in two steps, details then card payment, and the site counts the places left in each cohort.

Life Coaching with Lucy
Lucy is an online life coach for women. She sent her logo as a screenshot, so we redrew it as a sharp logo that scales to any size. The one-page site covers her story, qualifications, how she helps and her coaching packages. Every enquiry from the contact form goes straight to her inbox, with spam filtered out.

What your starter website includes
Most customers find a small business on their phone. They look for a few seconds, then call, message or move on to the next result. The site has to show what you do, prove it with your work and reviews, and put contact one tap away.
Each page has one job. The home page shows what you do and where you work, and the services page sets out what you offer. Past work shows finished jobs with your reviews beside them. The about page tells customers who they are dealing with, and the contact page puts a form, WhatsApp and your number one tap away.

Starter website questions
Is a starter website enough for a sole trader?
For most sole traders, yes. Customers want to see what you do, your past work and reviews, and a quick way to contact you, and the Starter website covers each of these. If you offer several services and want each one to rank on Google, the Business website gives every service its own page.
Can I add more pages later?
Yes. New pages can be added at any time, and each one is quoted before work starts. If you grow into several services, we can move your site up to a Business website and keep the design you already have.
Do I need to write the text and supply photos?
You supply the text and photos, and we tell you what each page needs. If you would rather not write it, we quote for writing the text before work starts.
What happens after my website goes live?
Your site keeps running as built. For ongoing help, Website care starts from £20 a month and covers security updates, uptime monitoring, DNS, domain renewals and small changes each month. Without a care plan, you pay per change, starting from £40.
