Fantastic from start to finish. Starts hands-on approach enabled me to not just build a website, but give me the tools to make alterations for myself in the future. Would highly recommend Stuart and his service was well worth the money.

Stuart is very professional and produced a beautiful website. He was also very kind and easy to work with and made sure I had a great handover. Thank you!
Claire Louise Poole
Absolute gem! I can't praise Stuart enough. I love the website he designed for me. Great value for money. And Stuart has the patience to guide you through the workings of your website, and respond to your questions promptly, and with understanding. I will definitely use Stuart again.

Stu was fantastic to work with and I can't recommend him highly enough. He's well known in the author community for designing attractive and engaging websites. He understands our business and builds the sites accordingly. I also appreciate that he took the time to familiarize himself with my books before proposing a design, so that he captured the look and feel of my stories. There were a lot of little touches as well. Stu provided a slew of graphics (like 3D book covers) that I could use, free of charge, whether I worked with him or not. He created an image toolkit to create custom buttons for the various bookstores I'll sell at. He also provided a 90 minute training session, which he also recorded so I can reference later. Stu gave me a great website that I am proud to call my own and one that represents the care I put into my novels. He's excellent to work with. If you need an author website, Stu is your guy.

Working with Stuart as a web designer was fantastic. He was really committed and flexible. He paid attention to everything I requested and also contributed some of his own ideas. He was incredibly patient with me, responding to each of my messages right away and giving me lots of helpful advice. The design and advice Stuart provided for my website have made me tremendously satisfied. Very delighted with the new website. Modern, polished, and simple to use. The training session and subsequent video were quite helpful. Stuart was on time, accommodating, and patient. Thank you Stuart for your diligence and your hard work. I wholeheartedly recommend Stuart to everyone...

I'm completely blown away by my new author website. Working with Stu was phenomenal. Easy to work with, professional, super competent. I LOVE my new site, and others I've shown it to are also likewise impressed, especially the 3D animation. Stu went over and beyond, taking into account my extraordinary personal circumstances. His kindness, combined with his professionalism, eagerness to complete the job early with flawless execution the first time while also setting clear expectations and validating scope were immediately readily apparent. The collaboration project had a two-week deadline, but the author website was completed within days!! Truly amazing. I was very picky and had quite a few minor changes, but this was due to me not being 100% clear on scope and how I wanted the page to look. But Stu's guidance was top-notch, and he never once complained about me being so picky. A true professional indeed. Due to the aforesaid personal circumstances, I was unable to attend the Zoom training Stu provided as part of this collaboration; however, Stu volunteered to do a personal video training for me instead. I didn't even have to ask him for this; it's something he automatically offered. The bonuses too were awesome, providing additional benefit to an already value-packed engagement. Very easy to see why Stu has 75+ five-star reviews and is #1 on Reedsy. Well done, Stu. Thank you so very much! Regards, Gabe Deremiens
Joseph Doria
Stuart was absolutely amazing!! My site looks fantastic! He walked me through every step of the process and responded to every question and suggestion. Cannot recommend him enough!
Mary Maclean
Stuart created a beautiful website for me and showed me very clearly how to operate it. He was helpful and understanding at all times and made our collaboration enjoyable even for a technophobe such as myself. I would have no hesitation in recommending his services to any author.

Stu is brilliant. If you want a top notch website look no further than Stu. He rebuilt mine to look cutting edge and professional. He knows websites inside out and was very astute at working out what suited my genre. He chose the right style and backgrounds very effectively. He's also very good at training you to use your website. Zoom calls are recorded so you can go back and check what he said which is a great time-saver. Overall, Stu is hugely experienced and will be able to deliver the website solution you want.

Tom Martz
How to write the perfect review for a perfect experience with a perfect professional? Let me just say, sincerely, if you are fortunate enough to work with Stuart you will be working with the best! Why can I say this? After a 40 year career in US higher education and leading the teams that over saw all the external affairs at four of the eight universities at which I had the pleasure to work, I have never found a more professional or knowledgeable person than Stu to work with. His is not only professionally capable he is a fun, nice person to work with. At each of the universities I was fortunate enough to have teams of people do with me what Stu was able to do on his own. The most important thing for me is that he led this 74 year old new novel writer through the technology effortlessly to establish what many visitors have said is a "wonderfully easy", "visually pleasing" and "amazing" website. I have one comment for you who have read this. Hire Stu! You will have the best team member you could ask for to work with on your website! Tom Martz
Margaret Garberick
Very patient, had a sense of humor thank goodness, and excellent communication! I highly recommend him!
Sally Rigby
Stuart was great to work with and the design he came up with fantastic. I'm getting so many positive comments on my newly designed website and the traffic has increased beyond my expectations. Stuart's customer service was second to none and he worked hard to make sure I was pleased with the results. I would highly recommend Stuart to anyone wanting an exceptional and innovatively designed website.
Stephen R. Marriott
My author's website was in need of a facelift and Stuart's fantastic design met all of my expectations, and more. I'm looking forward to continuing to work with Stuart.
Caroline Henderson
I am delighted with the website that Stuart built for me. He was really patient because it took me AGES to get myself sorted. Stuart kept in touch with me all along and once I had what I needed, he finished my website really quickly. I am absolutely delighted with it! We had a Zoom lesson where he showed me how to run my website, which was brilliant. I feel confident enough to take it from here. Stuart is friendly, helpful, and approachable and has made me very happy :) I recommend him to other authors looking for a website.
Esme King
Stu was flexible, professional and went above and beyond to help. He listened and took account of exactly what I was looking for.
Jan Sayer
It was great to have Stuart's professional eye overseeing my new website design. I had never used WiX before and was initially anxious about making a change but he reassured me that it was easy to use. His training was clear and fun too!Delighted with my new site, which is already attracting new subscribers, and feeling very confident that it will have a positive effect on my book sales.
Carlo Hart
Stuart is awesome. Not only did he make me a fantastic and professional site but he helped me out in ways that went above and beyond. Stuart has done work for the Self Publishing Formula crew. That's James Blatch and Mark Dawson, for the three people that don't know - in the self publishing world they are the gold standard. To work with someone who has done work for them meant I had an instant heavy hitter on my team. It was clear to me that Stuart should be my guy by looking at his portfolio. He makes web sites for authors. That should tell you everything, His sites look exactly as I wanted mine to look - like a professional authors. So it was easy to chose him. The work he did for me is great and totally on brand. He had good looking design ideas and he implemented them quickly and easily. I didn't have to wait around for him to do something. He gave my site (horror genre) the perfect little touches you would expect from a cool web site. He did two zoom sessions with me for longer than he needed to. He made sure I was up to speed on all of the small details that can be overwhelming if you don't have someone to show you the way. And he recorded our sessions so I didn't have to rely on my ridiculously tattered memory!! But here is where Stuart really stood out - he helped me with things that were more than just a web site. He totally helped me with my second cover and I ended up getting a new one that is actually on brand and looks like part of a series unlike the one I had before. Now my series looks like a real series! He also helped me with author career stuff. He has worked with enough authors to have an experienced perspective on things. He strongly encouraged me to get my books out there instead of sitting around and planning. Now my books are on preorder and things are moving in an exciting direction rather than static non motion. He gave me the kick I needed. In short if you want a professional author web site, Stuart is your guy. If you want extra help with email responders, and branding, and cover design and career advice then Stuart is definitely the guy for your team. No need to hesitate, save the thinking for your next book. Just hire him, it's an easy decision. If you want to see what he made for me - go to carlohart.com (and get your free box set! haha!!)
Stephanie Queen
Stuart is a master at creating dynamic websites and goes the extra mile to customize the site to suit you. He went out of his way to understand what my books are about and make my website the kind of place where my readers would feel excited about. He gets that the experience and aesthetic impact is important
Rhonda Mailey
Stuart Grant did an amazing job of designing my WIX website. He immediately understood my priorities and knew how well WIX could provide a truly effective website for my needs as an author. Stuart went through WIX, step by step & I'm so excited to have my site up and running. Can't recommend Stuart enough!
Connor Metcalf
Stu and his team went above and beyond to not only provide me an amazing website, but also comprehensive tools on how to use it. This is the team to work with!
Neil Laird
Stuart was absolutely brilliant. Not only did he nail my vision for the site almost immediately, but he also made it far better and more eye-catching. He was also a joy to work with -- I had all kinds of technical issues before he could start to design, and kept delaying and delaying. But Stu was always patient with me and willing to walk me through even the smallest technical detail or tweak. I'll definitely use him for all other books --and strongly suggest you do too!
Project Homo Hybrida
I'm very much obliged to Stu and Ellie for their closeness. They've been very easy to work with. I now have a fantastic website and, more importantly, the peace of mind that comes with having their help. So, if you're looking for a web developer, don't miss out on these professionals!
Tony Debajo
My collaboration with Stuart was nothing short of fantastic. I honestly don't think I could have asked for anything more. he was professional, friendly, patient and extremely helpful. The website turned out exactly as I had envisioned it and he also provided useful tips and tools to assist with any issues I may encounter. It was a great experience and I'd recommend him to anyone seeking to create a professionally designed website. 5 stars all round!!
Nicholas Hodgson
Stuart's service and professionalism exceeded my expectations. He has crafted an absolutely brilliant author website for me which I am absolutely thrilled about. The website tutorial he offered via zoom was constructive and authoritative and has equipped me with the skills I need to continue to maintain my website. I would thoroughly recommend Stuart to anyone looking to get an author website built - he is a first rate designer and absolute value for money.
Tara L Newby
Fantastic service. Stuart was flexible when I needed emergency surgery part way through the project and when I was waiting on my cover. The training after was also invaluable.
Michael Maloof
I knew Stuart by reputation, but have to admit, I had my doubts about using WIX. I'm now a convert, and that's thanks to Stu's design and guidance. He created a very attractive author website, in my humble opinion, but equally important, he gave me the keys to the kingdom to extend and shape when needed. I have decades of software development experience, so I consider myself a harsh judge of both Stu's design and the platform - both are great.
I can heartily recommend Stuart to anyone needing his web design services, and I suspect you'd be well served selecting Stuart for any project he bids.
Jeff Lichtenstein
Stuart was terrific. I needed help with out of the box solutions on a workbook for a seminar and he totally delivered and gave me options. In addition, he was creative, methodical and put up with me asking for a few different looks. Not once did he push me along. I appreciated it and LOVE my site and LOVED working with Stuart!
Miriam Verbeek
​Stuart was great to work with. Unexpectedly, my life became very topsy-turvy soon after I engaged Stuart to help me with my website. Note only did Stuart do a great job in re-designing - with some really neat concepts - the website, he uncomplainingly and patiently worked around my mucked up schedule. He's professional, knows what he's doing, friendly and flexible.
Charles Schaefer
Working with Stuart on my website was both pleasurable and informative. He has a great combination of technical and creative skills. He's very personable and offered many alternate ideas on the layout and design of the site. I highly recommend utilizing his services to anyone looking to build a new website.
Susan Permut
Stuart put together a beautiful, easy-to-use website that highlighted the book, the author and the designer. I think he underestimated my lack of expertise with all things digital, but he was very patient with me and we managed to overcome my ignorance and put together a truly delightful website. He helped me figure out what I needed on the site and added a few things I wasn't familiar with, which made it really special. I am very happy with the results and would recommend Stuart to anyone needing a website put together to their specifications.
Benjamin Goldstein
I was initially attracted to the idea of hiring Stuart Grant for this project after seeing a video in which he discussed websites and author's needs. When I contacted him he sent me some complimentary designs which further proved his creative abilities. Once we got started, Stuart was very professional and responsive to the needs of the project. He contributed creatively in terms of design and was quick to make necessary changes and adjustments. With all best wishes - Ben
Dawn Glasco
Stuart is awesomely, wonderful! His professionalism, artistic talent, and engagement is beautiful! Stuart’s work is impressive. He’s just an amazing human being. Dawn G.
James Kaine
Stu designed an absolutely amazing website for me. It was exactly how I wanted it and he was very thorough in incorporating my notes during the process. He answered all my questions and left me with the skills/knowledge to update on my own going forward. I would highly recommend Stu to any writer looking to get an awesome website design!
John McAneney
Stuart was pleasant and helpful to work with. He made it look easy. He provided me with a video of the training lesson, so I can fine-tune the website and make alterations as needed. Along the way, he also sorted out things like the privacy statement and Search Engine Optimisation, which I had not considered. I'm delighted with the result and can't recommend him highly enough!
Peter Barnett and Andrew Koski
Stu is a Pro. Extremely experienced. I chose him based on the previous work he has done building Websites. After giving him a detailed explanation of what we wanted the site to look like, he came back within a week with the first pass very close to I wanted. In the end, I was very pleased with the Website. He has a meeting schedule online so that you can set up a time to discuss the project. The only disadvantage is that Stu is based in England, and I'm in California. So that made for some early morning conversations. But Stu is worth it. I will defiantly use him again in the future.
Bruce Berger
I can't say enough good things about Stuart and his great team! They were polite, professional, and prompt in their service. Their creative and artistic capabilities in the design and creation of my website were awesome. My friends and leaders love my new author website. The briefing and discussion video we shared late in the process was a highly useful and educational experience. Stu is wide open to suggestions and then has the wonderful capability to bring them to life. On a scale of 1-10, Stu and team rate about a 15 in my mind! Look forward to continuing to work with you, Stu!
AY Shih
Absolutely impressive, functional and professional website design. I really appreciate Stuart's expertise. His designs exceeded my expectations in every way. Very thorough, professional and helpful, with fantastic communication. Thank you very much, and I look forward to working with Stuart again in the future!
Chloe Scott
Honestly working with Stuart was fantastic. He was very consistent and thorough. I definitely liked how he worked with me on the design of the website even though I was very indecisive at times. He also is very versed in his craft. So if you're on the fence, Stuart will do an amazing job.
Chris Pelz
Stuart G. is professional, talented and enjoyable to work with. If you want the best, he's your guy.
Marcus Griffin
Exceptional! Tremendous Value! I love the results of my website! He exceeded my expectations! I am limited in my body of work as an author, and I have reviewed many websites. He created my WIX website with a vision that captured what I was looking for. I don't think I would have come close to building what he created. I am so thankful I found him. To top it off, we had a Zoom showing me how to maintain my website. I was even able to make a change with confidence. I am so glad I selected Stuart!
