A perfect example

This site you're visiting right now is designed, built and hosted by Marvin at darkHouse Digital. Behind the public pages you see is a custom-tailored Content Management System (CMS) that lets administrators manage what's on the site. It includes events management, a blog, payments and much more. Marvin is also the builder of the NHTA Student Hub, the sophisticated Learning Management System you'll use if you take an NHTA course. Marvin says:

"I’ve been designing and hosting websites for therapists for around twenty years. So if you are in need of your first site for your practice, I can guide you through it smoothly. If you already have a site but want a refresh, new features or new hosting, then just drop me a line — I'm always happy to help.

From simple sites to complex automated systems and AI integrations, whatever you need from your website, I can design, build and host it for you."

SOLID FOUNDATIONS

Everything you need for your practice

Not sure where to begin? Marvin will put the right pieces together and refine the plan with you. The foundations of your site will typically include:

Your services

What you offer and how to access it

Conditions

The things you can help with

Your approach

About your therapeutic modality

About you

Your qualifications and experience

Sessions & Fees

How much things cost and how to pay

Policies

The basis on which clients interact with you

Blog

If you like to add articles online

Testimonials

System for adding client feedback

You can have content management, AI integrations, Zoom integrations, a shopping cart and payments, systems to help with social media, or anything else you need. If you don’t need them at the start, your website can be developed further later. No broken WordPress, no DIY tangles — just ask Marvin and it'll be done.

From first contact to launch

An easy process for you

Marvin gives you an outline of the steps here:

  1. 01

    The initial requirement

    Drop me a line and let me know if you need a site or a refresh, and we can make a plan, no obligation.

  2. 02

    Crafting the plan

    We’ll get the basics organised: the scope, budget and initial drafts, to ensure we’re on track.

  3. 03

    Design & build

    I design and build with your approval at each stage, and we refine it until everything is right.

  4. 04

    Testing & launch

    Everything is fully tested and prepared for going live, your email is set up with you, and then we launch.

  5. 05

    Hosting and beyond

    You’re up and running! I’m always ready for ongoing help and further development of the site.

Build & Host

Flexible payment options

Whether you want a traditional deposit and staged-payment arrangement to get your site live, or prefer to spend less capital up-front, that's covered.

With Build & Host plans you can spread the cost like you'd do with a mobile phone contract. You can pay a deposit to bring the monthly figure down, or pay off the remaining balance early and fully own your files at any point.

Some quick answers

Frequently asked questions

If yours isn’t here, just drop Marvin a line and he'll answer it.

Ask Marvin

I already have a website. Can you improve it?

If it makes sense to do so, then yes. I’ll assess the age and codebase of your site and advise on the most cost-effective way to proceed. Send me a link and I’ll take a look.

Do I need to sort out a domain and hosting myself?

Not at all. I can help you choose your domain wisely and I can register it on your behalf, no technical tangles for you. I can set it up to work with your hosting and take care of everything for you.

Will I be able to update the site myself?

Yes, if you want to. Just tell me you want a CMS (Content Management System) and we can tailor it to suit your needs.

Can it take bookings and payments?

Yes. From a simple enquiry form to a full diary with deposits and card payments, we can build whatever you need.

What about data protection?

Forms, cookie choices and privacy notices are built with data compliance in mind, so it will be simple to get that set up properly.

How long does it take?

It depends on the scope of the site, but usually it happens pretty swiftly. We’ll discuss it before we start, once we know what you need.
