Can I just build a website myself

Maybe you're thinking, "Can I just build a website myself?" 

Sure, you can. DIY platforms like Wix, Squarespace, and WordPress make it easy to get something up and running. But before you commit to 20 hours of Googling "how to make Squarespace not look like Squarespace," ask yourself: what do you actually want your website to do? And is DIY the best way to get there? 

Your Brand Deserves Better Than a Template 

A website isn't just a collection of pretty pages. It's the digital face of your business. And if it doesn't reflect who you are, what you stand for, and who you're for, it's not doing its job. 

At Wildhouse, we don't just slap your logo on a template and call it done. We take the time to understand your personality, your values, and your audience. Then we build a site that aligns with all of it - one that supports your business goals and keeps visitors coming back. 

SEO Isn't Optional 

Then there's SEO. Search engine optimisation is what gets your website seen by the people actually searching for what you do. 

DIY platforms come with basic SEO tools. But basic doesn't cut it when you're competing for attention online. A custom-built site from Wildhouse is fully optimised from day one so you show up when your ideal clients are looking. 

Is DIY Really the Best Use of Your Time? 

The real question isn't whether you can build a website yourself. It's whether that's the best use of your time. 

Your time is valuable. You could spend it wrestling with templates, troubleshooting broken forms, and second-guessing your font choices. Or you could focus on what you're actually good at (running your business!) while we handle building an online presence that works. 

At Wildhouse, we create websites that aren't just functional. They're crafted to provide a solid user experience and align with your brand's identity. No generic templates. No half-baked SEO. Just a site that does its job properly.
