Introducing the Ultimate Squarespace website designer and small business specialist.

When I'm not beavering away at my studio desk you may find me relaxing on local beaches, sea kayaking or bouncing around off-road somewhere on my adventure motorcycle.

Hello, I’m Mark.

  • Owner of Wightsquare.

  • Independent Squarespace website designer.

  • Squarespace Circle Member.

  • Fan of start-ups and small businesses.

  • Living happily on the sunny Isle of Wight.

For the last 25 years I’ve worked as a graphic designer, website developer and brand specialist with Bate Brand. I’ve worked with large corporations such as Legal & General, Prudential, Mercedes-Benz and BP. However, my passion is for working with small businesses that I believe can benefit most from my experience and design expertise.

For many years I’ve specialised in Squarespace website design because it enables me to build beautiful websites for my clients, sites that have a high level of functionality and get found easily in search. Unfortunately, too many small businesses can’t afford the prices charged by larger web agencies for custom-coded sites. Therefore, too many small businesses and start-ups have to accept cheaper, poorly designed and poorly performing websites. Squarespace websites bridge the gap for my customers.

I love working with clients and helping them to grow their businesses with Squarespace design, marketing and e-commerce.
