6 best practices you need for a successful website design business

Welcome to another episode of "Websites Made Simple." I’m Holly Christie, your host, and in today’s episode, I’m sharing what best practices in website design truly mean based on my own journey as a website designer and mentor.

The Ultimate Guide to Website Design Best Practices

Over the years, I’ve learned that creating stunning websites is just one piece of the puzzle—discovering higher standards and focusing on accessibility are what really boosted my confidence and helped my clients trust me, too.

I’ll walk you through some of my go-to strategies, starting with simple accessibility wins, like choosing the right font sizes and making sure every website is easy for everyone to use.

I’ll talk about how to structure content for good SEO, the benefits of using quality tools over just the cheapest options, and why keeping your websites lightweight and mobile-friendly matters more than ever.

And, because I know how overwhelming client projects can get, I’ll share some hard-won advice on setting boundaries and keeping communication clear, so everyone enjoys the process from start to finish.

Whether you’re new to web design or looking to fall back in love with your business, this episode is full of insights you can start using right away. Let’s make your design business not only better—but more enjoyable, too.
