Web Design & Development

Website Documentation and Training

A website is only useful if you can run it. Every site I build comes with a written guide to its editing area and a training session on your own site, so you know how to make the changes you'll need.

Your instructions

Example guides

Change a photo

  1. 1Open the page and choose the picture.
  2. 2Upload your new photo and describe it.
  3. 3Save, and it's live.

What you can expect from documentation and training

A guide written for your site

Step-by-step instructions with screenshots of your own editing area, covering the tasks you'll do most.

Common tasks covered

Editing a page, adding a blog post, uploading images, changing SEO details and previewing before you publish.

A walk-through on your own site

A training session where you make real changes yourself while I talk you through them.

Notes for your team

If several people will edit the site, the guide makes it easy to show someone new how things work.

Where everything lives

A short record of your domain, hosting, email settings and logins, so you know who holds what.

Support if you want it

A maintenance package covers backups, security updates, bug fixes and a few small changes, if you'd rather have ongoing help.

How the handover of a website works

  1. Step 1

    Agree what you'll do

    We decide which tasks you'll handle yourself, so the guide and training focus on those.

  2. Step 2

    Write the guide

    I write the guide as the site is built, with screenshots taken from your editing area.

  3. Step 3

    Training session

    Before launch we go through the guide together and you make real edits on your site, then preview and publish them.

  4. Step 4

    Launch and support

    You get the finished guide at launch, ready for whoever looks after the site next.
