Overview

This project focused on building a website for a digital nomad offering spiritual mentorship and personal coaching. The goal was to establish a professional online presence while working within a limited budget. A key challenge was accommodating the client’s preference to self-host the site rather than using Webflow’s hosting.

  • Developed a cost-effective website tailored to a one-person business.
  • Ensured a professional and polished online presence.
  • Addressed the technical challenge of self-hosting while preserving Webflow’s design quality.

Process

I worked closely with the client to understand their needs and bring the designer’s vision to life. Using Webflow’s export feature, I ensured that the site maintained its high design standards while functioning smoothly on a custom server. Custom HTML, CSS, and JavaScript refinements were implemented to optimize performance.

  • Collaborated with the client to align the website with their vision.
  • Used Webflow’s export function to enable external hosting.
  • Applied custom coding to enhance site functionality and performance.

Results

The final website provided a seamless user experience and reflected the client’s brand identity. By hosting the site on their own server, the client maintained full control while staying within budget. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with praise for both the design and the site’s alignment with their personal values.

  • Delivered a site that met both aesthetic and functional goals.
  • Enabled self-hosting while preserving design integrity.
  • Received strong client approval for professionalism and brand consistency.
