I'm Tom. One developer, always on hand.
I'm a developer in Bournemouth and I've been building for the web for over 10 years. I build websites, apps and the digital bits in between for small businesses and startups, and you deal with me, not an account manager or a ticket queue.
“Pick up the phone and you'll have me on the line in 30 seconds.”

one person builds your site and supports it afterwards
How I work
- A fixed monthly price, with hosting and support included.
- I learn your business properly and tell you honestly when an idea will or won't work.
- Plain-English updates, before and after launch.
- I stick around after launch, and I'm always there to support you.
Experience
- A development apprenticeship in 2015, instead of university.
- Digital agencies along the south coast, on fast-paced projects across almost every sector.
- In-house teams at LV= and daily.dev.
- Built the Go Gym app, which is live on iOS, Android and the web.
What I have built
Websites and apps for small businesses, built by me from the first idea to launch and supported by me after it.
A warm, fast website for a Bournemouth pet carer
A clear, fast website for a GCSE maths tutor
Who I love working with
Sport and fitness businesses: I'm in the gym most days. And startups: if you've got a business name and no idea where to start, I can take you from domain and company registration to a live site.
Away from the desk
I grew up in Bournemouth and my whole family is here, though I support Southampton, which makes for some interesting conversations. I work remotely with most clients, and I'm happy to meet in person, especially to say hello.
Got an idea or a business that needs a website?
