CUSTOM WEBSITES & DIGITAL VISIBILITY

Custom Websites & Digital Visibility

I design fast, accessible, and SEO-driven portfolio websites for artists, writers, and creative professionals. My work focuses on minimal interfaces, strong typography, and clear navigation that highlight content while boosting visibility. With my custom-built plugin huseSEO, I standardize search engine optimization, social media previews, and agent-ready structured data. The result: reliable, easy-to-update platforms that enhance your digital presence.

Frequently asked questions

How does the custom website process work?

First, we have a short discovery call where I walk you through the process in detail. If we decide to move forward, we clarify your goals, content, and references through a brief. Then we hold a moodboard session to align on the structure, typography, and homepage direction. After your approval, we move on to development, huseSEO setup, testing, and launch. You’ll receive regular updates and feedback throughout the process.

Is huseSEO included?

Yes. In custom website projects, the huseSEO plugin is included as a standard setup. This covers meta titles and descriptions, Open Graph settings, core technical SEO, sitemap generation, and performance-focused optimizations. I see foundational SEO work as an essential part of every website.

Will my Google Knowledge Panel open when the site is done?

Publishing the site does not open a Google Knowledge Panel. Google builds the panel itself. It depends on notability, Wikipedia or Wikidata, verified profiles, and consistent sources outside your own site. I cannot guarantee a panel. After the first conversation I look up what your name returns today and tell you the likelihood and which signals are missing. What I deliver is the entity home: the canonical page in your name. The page Google and AI tools read when someone asks who you are. Your name, practice, works, exhibitions, and profiles sit on one page, without contradiction, in schema. Whether or not a panel appears, a search for your name can quote this site.

How do hosting and domain setup work?

You can purchase the domain and hosting through me; in that case, an annual maintenance and management fee applies. If you prefer, I can also guide you step by step during an online meeting on how to purchase the domain and hosting yourself from a suitable provider, so all accounts remain directly under your ownership. If you already have a hosting provider, I can configure everything on your existing infrastructure. DNS, SSL, and email forwarding settings are all handled by me. Whenever possible, accounts remain under your control; I manage access throughout the project and fully hand everything over to you upon delivery.

Do you do aggressive SEO?

No. I do not use risky techniques such as hidden text, link schemes, or automated spam content. My focus is on building fast and accessible websites, properly structured schema data, high-quality content, and sustainable technical SEO practices.

Who handles maintenance and updates?

After launch, you can handle small text and visual updates yourself, a WordPress training session is included once the project is complete. If you prefer, I can take care of updates for you at an hourly rate. There's also an annual subscription option, which includes one update per year.

How are the timeline and pricing determined?

Once the scope is defined, number of pages, multilingual structure, custom features, and content preparation, I'll provide a fixed or phased quote. Typical portfolio sites take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months; the start date and delivery milestones are outlined in the contract.
