Client reviews
What web design clients say.
5.0 and 4.9-star ratings across 80+ reviews on our team's Cornelius and Mercy PeoplePerHour profiles. Quoted word for word.
“Another great stage of the project. Cornelius transformed the homepage and did a very good job of bringing our design ideas and mock-ups to life.
We made quite a few small refinements during the process, particularly around spacing, responsive layouts and positioning, and he was very patient in working through these with us. The finished homepage looks much more modern and professional than the original and works well across desktop and mobile.
I'm very happy with the result and really appreciated his attention to the details.”

“Very happy with the first stage of the project. Cornelius did a great job with the new mega menu and navigation, including the different categories, icons, filters and responsive mobile layout.
There were quite a few small details to refine as we went along, but Cornelius was patient and responsive to our feedback and worked through the adjustments with us. The new navigation is a major improvement on the original website and much easier for customers to use.
Very pleased with the result and the communication throughout this stage.”

Incredibly knowledgeable, talented and professional, she genuinely went above and beyond to understand our vision and bring it to life. Her dedication, patience and attention to detail made the whole experience a pleasure. We will certainly work with her again and cannot recommend her highly enough. A wonderful talent and person to collaborate with. Thank you, Mercy!”
