Hi - I’m Karo.
I do websites and systems, but my job is basically this: take “something’s off and I don’t know what” and turn it into a clear plan.
I’m direct, I don’t do fluffy advice, and I won’t push you into working with me. If I can help, I’ll tell you what that would look like. If I can’t, I’ll be honest - and point you to someone who can.
If you’re feeling stuck, start with the diagnostic call. One sentence about the problem is enough.
What I optimise for
so you’re not guessing
Reliable enquiries
Validation, deliverability, analytics events
Clear structure
Consistent templates, sensible content model
Less admin
Booking + CRM + email + analytics wired together
Accessibility + performance
Semantic markup, keyboard + contrast checks
Performance diagnosis + fixes
Core Web Vitals, bottlenecks, fix order
Clean builds you can maintain
Modular sections, low-risk edits, fewer breakpoints
How I work
Direct and specific
I’ll tell you what’s broken, what’s messy, and what matters first.
Systems, not screens
I look at content, templates, forms, tracking, and admin flow.
Edge cases covered
Errors, mobile, odd content, accessibility - so quality doesn’t regress.
Measured changes
You’ll know what I’m changing, what I’m not, and why.
Choose a starting point:
1. Website & Systems Audit
Full assessment + written priorities (best when you need clarity).
If we start with a website & systems audit, the full audit fee is credited toward building or stabilisation.
or
2. Build / Stabilise
When you already know what you need done.
What happens next
3. Diagnose
Quick call + review of what’s fragile / what you’re trying to ship.
4. Agree scope + order
A short written plan: priorities, risks, and what I’m leaving alone.
5. Build or stabilise
Implement in a safe sequence - templates, content model, key journeys, integrations.
6. Test edge cases
Forms, tracking events, mobile, odd content, accessibility, performance.
7. Hand over cleanly
Notes, access, and “how to edit without breaking it”.
I’m a good fit when
I’m careful with people as well as systems - you’ll always know what’s happening, what I need from you, and what the next step is.
You want decisions explained: impact, risk, and what I’m leaving alone.
You’re open to fixing root causes, not just patching symptoms.
You want someone who treats your business like it’s important - and communicates like it is.
I may not be right for you when
If that’s you, I’ll still help you find the next step.
You need high-volume, fast-turn work.
You want me to say yes to everything.
You want changes pushed live without a rollback plan.
