01
You’re hard to find or hard to trust online
No site, an outdated site, or one that doesn’t explain what you do, where you serve, and how to reach you.
For small & local businesses
Websites & apps that bring in enquiries, bookings & orders.
I’m Dan Wahl, a professional software engineer. I build clear, fast websites and practical custom apps for small businesses whose current site isn’t doing its job — or who don’t have one yet.

Who this is for
If your website isn’t bringing work in, it’s costing you work.
Most small businesses don’t need something fancy. They need something clear, trustworthy, and easy to act on — on a phone, in under a minute.
02
Enquiries still mean phone tag
Customers want to book, order, or ask a question without calling during opening hours. Your site should handle that.
03
You’re doing admin by hand
Spreadsheets, repeated emails, manual bookings — a small custom tool can remove hours of repetitive work every week.
Fixed packages
Pick the outcome, not the hours.
Three clear starting points. Every project gets a fixed quote after a short scoping chat — no open-ended hourly billing. Pricing is confirmed in your quote, based on exactly what you need.
1 — Starter Site
For businesses that need a professional presence that actually generates enquiries.
- Clean, mobile-first website (home, services, about, contact)
- Enquiry form that goes straight to your inbox
- Maps, opening hours & click-to-call
- Help with wording, photos & structure
- Set up on your own domain
Fixed quote after scoping chat
2 — Site + Booking / Ordering
For businesses that take bookings, appointments, or orders and want the website to do that work.
- Everything in Starter Site
- Online booking or ordering built in
- Automatic confirmations for you & the customer
- Menu / service list you can update
- Payments or deposits, where it fits your workflow
Fixed quote after scoping chat
3 — Custom App
For a specific problem a website alone can’t solve — a tool for you, your team, or your customers.
- Short discovery to map the exact workflow
- Custom web app built around how you work
- Logins, dashboards, or customer portals as needed
- Built to be maintainable, not a black box
- Handover walkthrough included

Sample work
Concepts that show what each package looks like.
These are sample concepts built to demonstrate the packages above — not past client work. Real projects are scoped and built the same way, around your business.
Sample · Starter SiteTrades & services site
Sample concept
Book a job without the phone tag
Services with clear pricing cues, service area, reviews, and a short enquiry form that captures the job details up front.
Sample · Booking / OrderingCafé & food ordering
Sample concept
Order ahead, skip the queue
Menu, ordering, and pickup times in a phone-friendly flow — so regulars can order in under a minute.
Sample · Custom AppSimple business dashboard
Sample concept
Replace the spreadsheet
A small internal tool concept for tracking jobs, customers, and follow-ups — instead of scattered notes and manual admin.
How it works
A short, predictable process.
No jargon, no surprise bills. You always know what happens next and what it costs before work starts.
1
Scoping chat
A short conversation about your business, your customers, and what the site or app needs to do.
2
Fixed quote
You get a clear, fixed price and what’s included. Work starts with a 50% deposit — the rest on launch.
3
Build
I build it and keep you posted with progress you can actually look at, not status jargon.
4
Review round
You review the real thing and we make a round of tweaks together before it goes live.
5
Launch & care
We launch on your domain. An optional paid maintenance plan covers updates, tweaks, and peace of mind after.
Built by a professional software engineer — working directly with you.
I’m Dan Wahl. I build software for a living, and I take on a small number of website and app projects for small businesses alongside that work.
That means you’re not handed off to an account manager or an offshore team. You talk to the person building it, and you get engineer-level build quality without agency pricing or agency process.
If you’re not sure whether you need a starter site, booking, or something custom, start with the problem in plain English — I’ll tell you honestly what I’d recommend, including if you don’t need me at all.
