The Creative Website
A 5-week, done-with-you experience for creatives and small business owners who want a beautiful, functional website without doing it alone.
Build your website alongside me — step-by-step, start to launch.
Together we’ll build a professional, branded website just for you!
Your story, your work, your personality, your offers.
You know you need a website, but you keep putting it off.
The tech feels scary and overwhelming, but you don’t want to pay someone to build it.
This makes sense to me… I get you! That’s why I’ve created this new program.
We’ll build your website together. Side-by-side.
I know the tech, the what-to-add, the behind-the-scenes.
And you can still be hands-on doing all the fun creative stuff, all the while learning how to actually use your website!
This is not a DIY course, where you’re trying to work it out all alone, and hoping for the best.
This is a done-with-you website!
You and I will build your website together, in real time. You’ll have guidance, structure and support the whole way. From the very first page right through to launch.
What’s different about this program:
You’ll actually finish and launch your website!
You won’t be left alone to figure it out
You’ll learn skills not just to continue editing and creating your website, but deeper parts of your business and systems
You’ll get direct feedback and support from me
You’ll be part of a supportive community of creatives building their own sites in our online forum
This will be fun, inspiring, and engaging
No prior experience, or understanding of coding.
You’ll go from one day I’ll build my own website, to YAY look at this, I built it myself!
And I honestly can’t wait to cheer you on.
If you purchase before midnight Tuesday 21st I will create a custom next-steps plan for you - for clarity and focus in your business.
Here’s what you’ll create:
A beautiful fully working mobile responsive website
A homepage that makes you feel proud to show off your new site
Your portfolio / services / offerings page so that you can show off your work, sell your offerings, or take bookings
An about page that feels actually like you
Opt-in pages to collect contacts, email addresses, and customers
Link-in-bio pages to add to your social media accounts
I will teach you how to actually build your own website, using the exact process that I use for my sites as well as my custom client sites.
And you’ll have tutorial videos to keep so that you can check back in when you need a refresher on anything.

who is this for?
〰️ who is this for?
I build websites for artists, crafters, jewellers, small business owners.
For yoga teachers, health practitioners, nature healers, coaches.
For not-for-profit community organisations and pre-schools.
Let me help you build yours!
How this works:
Foundations -
Choose your starting template or design layout from my pre-built foundational base.
Map out your website structure
Design & Build -
This is the part where you’ll start adding all the colours, fonts, and all your words and photos - you’ll do the physical part of this, so that you can learn how your website works.
I’ll analyse your website and offer advice, suggestions and edits.
If there’s anything extra fancy that you like I’ll add some small custom coding* to the back end of your site - you won’t need to worry about this at all.
Content -
You’ll receive a workbook with guidance on what to include in your website and how to write your content.
I’ll help you with simple branding colours and fonts, if you need.
Together we’ll work through the best photos - either your own photoshoot or how to source images.
Integrations & Connections -
Once your site is ready and we’ve tested the whole design, we’ll integrate any social media, newsletter forms, payment sites, or booking systems needed.
We’ll connect your domain name and email address.
And any other connections specific to your site and business.
Refine & Launch -
Final tweaks - checking all buttons and links work.
We’ll press publish and then celebrate in our online group!
I’ll share your new website in my newsletter and social media accounts - this is an audience of over 80,000
This is a very brand new program - I will be building it while we go. So I’ll be able to take what feedback you want and need, and add it into the site. This means… I’ll be building this program based on your needs!
As such, some of these modules may be edited or changed.
*Please note that I won’t be adding extensive custom coding to your site in this program. But if there’s anything specific that you’ve seen on another site, send me a message and I can let you know if it’s possible in the scope of this course, or an added fee.
You won’t need any custom code to make a beautiful site, but occasionally there are a few special extras you like.
Alright how much it will be
Right now I’m opening this for expressions of interest.
I will need a minimum enrolment amount before I can run this program.

A specially designed website template as your base, with changes to the layout as you’d like
A 6-page website {you might need: home, about, contact, offerings / services, portfolio, blog, shop, bookings, events…. contact me if there’s something else you might want}.

Assistance with SEO (search engine optimisation) for your brand and industry

A fully launched site - from blank page to live online home
Direct access to me ~ I always offer advice, insights, ideas, suggestions, and give so much more than an hourly rate

I’m sure there will other little things along the way, as we find you need them… including forms or workbooks.
If you purchase before midnight Tuesday 21st April I will create a custom next-steps plan for you - for clarity and focus in your business.
This course is perfect for you if:
You really want to build your own site, but have been scared and put off by the tech.
You’re ready to dive in and do the work - this is a live session where we’ll build and launch your website in 6-weeks.
You’re open to feedback and eager to offer the best of your work to the world.
You’re ready to share your work with the world, put your offers and services up, and lean into your own wonderful creative self - online.
This is not for you if:
You want it all done for you - if this is you I offer custom website design here.
You’re not ready to commit time each week over the next 4-8 weeks to work on your site.
You’re wanting a highly customised website (contact me for all custom work).
You want a full extensive online shopping site - this program will show you how to create a website with many pages, but we won’t go into depth for a full online shopping page. *But please send me an email if you do need this, as I’m happy to look at editing the modules.
The last final things to say….
I am putting this out as expressions of interest. If there is not enough interest, then I won’t be building this course - at this stage.
I am quite passionate about the idea, so I might down the track, but for now… I’m not sure.
If you’ve been wanting a website, and feel overwhelmed by the whole idea of it; then this might be perfect for you. Having a deadline to launch your site by is an excellent way to overcome perfectionism and just do the work.
I will be building this while we progress through. Modules will be released weekly, starting mid-May. Once you enrol you’ll receive a workbook that you can start on, so you’re able to begin gathering information for your website.
If you’re interested and want to join, or if you have any questions about this, please do let me know. Just send me an email hello@elliebeck.com.au
This program is $500AU (approx $380US). I’ll have payment plans available - 2 x monthly $250.
If you want a website, but don’t want to do any of the work, then I offer custom website design for artists, crafters, creatives, yoga teachers, coaches, health practitioners, and many other small business owners.

Yes - you absolutely can. Well, I believe you can. I will show you step-by-step how to, with full video tutorials and a custom template to start with.
Let’s take away the blank page scares!
THOUGH - I do know that some clients really aren’t techy at all, and thats where I offer custom website design, where I do everything for them.
If you want help working out what’s best for you, send me an email.

It’s a program where I take you step-by-step on how to build your own website. We’ll be doing it live.
Some lessons will be pre-recorded, but we’ll also have group calls and an online forum.
You will build your own website in less than 6-weeks, with my expertise and direct hands-on guidance.

I build my websites on SquareSpace. You’ll have a yearly web hosting fee for this - which is approx $300 (ish) a year.
By working with me you get 20% off this fee.
You’ll need a custom domain name, if you don’t already have one. This is free for the first year with SquareSpace and then approx $30 or so afterwards.
There may be additional costs for things like scheduling platforms, booking sites, newsletter platforms. We can talk about these as needed.
-
It depends on what platform your website is on. We’ll be working on SquareSpace, so if your site is on another platform you’ll have to start afresh.
Though the content on your current site doesn’t have to be lost. So, don’t go deleting it or anything.
I’ll help you redirect the domain name, so your url leads to the new site.
If your website is already on SquareSpace then likely we can just work directly on that and add new pages, design, and content.
-
I’ll help you with this. You’ll receive the same workbook that my custom web design clients get, with step by step sections on what to write for your website.
I’ll also help you with photos. If you don’t have any of your own, we can source them through free or paid sites. I do this for many of my clients.
-
No, this is for SquareSpace only. I don’t teach or use those other platforms. I use SquareSpace because it’s beautifully intuitive to work with, it’s an all-in-one (no plugins to keep updating like Wordpress), it’s mobile responsive, highly customisable, and great for a lot of different business-types.
If you’re used to a different platform, you might be wondering about web hosting - SquareSpace actually hosts the site, so you don’t need to look anywhere else, or pay those fees.
If you already have your domain we can redirect it to SquareSpace, or move it over totally. Either is perfectly fine. You will have to pay the domain fee to whichever providor.

Once the program is finished you’ll have lifetime access to all the pre-recorded content.
The group forum will be available and active for 3-months beyond.

All my courses and products are sold in Australian dollars AU$.
Your bank or PayPal will automatically convert for you, so you don’t have to do anything.
-
You can reach me anytime via my contact page or email.
I aim to respond quickly—usually within one or two business days.
-
SquareSpace has a great course hosting option, so you can definitely do that.
In this particular program, I likely won’t be going into detail about this - and none of my foundational templates will have this feature.
It’s a little more nuanced, and slightly more techy to set-up for this group program.
BUT - it’s something that I can work on with you individually. Send me an email and we can chat.
