Sara Staggs
Debut Author Squarespace Website Build
Industry: Publishing/Author
I met the wonderful Sara Staggs through Reedsy, and from our very first conversation, I knew this would be something special. Sara is a debut author with an extraordinary personal story full of resilience, creativity, and purpose. She needed a digital space that would reflect all of that and more.
Sara came to me with an entry-level website that wasn’t quite serving her vision. She was looking for something more polished and professional, a real author platform that could grow with her as her writing career flourished. She needed a space that could hold her debut novel, her blog, and her social media presence all while reflecting her unique voice and story.
Together, we reimagined her site from the ground up, creating a beautiful, intuitive, and future-ready online home. We elevated her branding, improved her site structure and SEO, and brought in thoughtful design touches to reflect her style and goals. The result is a warm, inviting, and functional author website that Sara can continue to build on as her audience grows.
Sara was a dream to work with. Passionate, open, and full of great ideas. Her reviews on Reedsy were some of the kindest words I’ve ever received (and I may or may not have gotten a little misty-eyed reading them). It was such a joy and privilege to help her tell her story, her way.
“Have you SEEN the website Kelly built me?! It’s an amazing experience! She was so thoughtful, and I felt like she really listened and understood what I wanted by the time the design started. The website works like a dream, she had great, creative ideas of how to make it look professional, and I would love to hire her again! Beautiful work, wonderful person, I can’t recommend Kelly highly enough. 10 stars out of 5!
Well, now I’m sad because I don’t WANT to stop working with Kelly!! She’s amazing! My website was a hot mess, and then I was lucky enough to get a bid from her, and she has made it into one of the most beautiful websites I’ve ever seen. She’s responsive, smart, diligent, and a joy to work with. I wish she lived in Portland! If/when I need an update or another page added to my website, I am only trusting it to her. She’s amazing. Don’t hire anyone else. Just don’t do it. Kelly blows them all away. ”
