One person handling the whole project.
I'm Emanuele, an independent web designer. I build websites for small businesses, professionals, B&Bs, holiday rentals and hospitality businesses.
I handle the whole thing: structure, content, how it reads on every screen, and going live. The process stays direct, with no jargon and no unnecessary steps.

Services
What a project can include, depending on what you need.
- 01
New websites
A website built around your business and what it needs to achieve.
- 02
Website redesign
Updating a site that looks dated or unclear, so it reads better and is easier to use.
- 03
Responsive design
Your site works properly on phones, tablets and desktop.
- 04
Text and content
I organise your business information and tidy up or write the text, based on what you tell me.
- 05
Your existing photos
I arrange and present the photos you send me, choosing the order and sizing that work best.
- 06
Multilingual websites
Extra language versions, if your customers come from more than one country.
- 07
Contact & integrations
WhatsApp, email, Google Maps, social media, booking platforms — whatever the project needs.
- 08
Domain & publishing
If you want, I help connect the domain and get the site live. The domain stays registered in your name.
- 09
Logo & visual basics
If you don't have an identity yet, I can put together a simple logo and set the site's colours and typefaces.
- 10
SEO foundations
Basic on-page SEO, metadata, indexing and Google Search Console setup, where it makes sense.
I don't promise first place on Google — just solid technical foundations.
Real project, live online
Gaia Boutique Apartment
A website for a holiday apartment in Desenzano del Garda, live and available in several languages.
Starting point
The property was only on Booking.com and Airbnb. It had no site of its own to present the apartment.
Objective
Give the apartment its own site: photos, amenities, location, links to the booking channels, and everything readable in the guest's language.
Outcome
An independent site that sits alongside the booking platforms and that the owner controls directly.

How I work
A simple process, from the first conversation to launch.
- 1
Let's talk
You tell me about your business and what the site has to do.
- 2
Free initial concept
Where it makes sense I put together a first concept at no cost, so you can see the direction. It's a preview, not the finished site.
- 3
Design & development
I build the site along the direction we agreed on.
- 4
Review together
We go through it together and adjust what needs adjusting, until you're happy.
- 5
Launch
If you want, I help connect the domain and get the site online.
Timing
A standard website can usually be ready within a few days. More involved projects naturally take a little longer.
Custom quote
I don't publish fixed prices, because every site is different. Once I understand the project I send you a clear quote.
After launch
The project finishes once the agreed site is approved and online.
I stay available afterwards: if you need changes, new sections or updates later on, we talk it through and sort them out together.
Frequently asked questions
What do you need from me to get started?
Details about your business and whatever you already have: text, photos, a logo. If something's missing, we sort it out together.
Will the website work well on phones?
Yes. Sites are built to work properly on phones, tablets and desktop.
Can you work on an existing website?
Yes. I start from what you have and update it, rather than starting over.
Can I request changes later on?
Yes, as separate work agreed each time.
