About Lyndsey

I’ve been building websites for over 25 years. After decades of freelance work alongside my photography business, I made it official with 838 Digital in 2022. I’m based in Herefordshire where I landed 14 years ago after leaving Lancashire in 2002 for Dorset, then Germany, Wiltshire and Germany again.

I work with small business owners who love what they do…but not all the other stuff that comes along with it. The website, the tech, the SEO …the constant marketing hamster wheel. But luckily for them, I love that stuff! I build WordPress sites, sort out SEO and help people figure out why Google has decided to ignore them.

Training is a big part of what I do too – working with business owners and their teams to get to grips with WordPress, SEO and the tools that come with both.

I promise you don’t want my help with housework, parking or song lyrics. But if you need your website to look good, work properly and show up where it should …that I can do.
