For freelancers
A freelance website you can build between deadlines
Paste your LinkedIn — or say what you do and who for — and Spanli builds the site: what you offer, the work behind you, and one form so enquiries stop arriving in five different apps.
You type “A freelance product designer in Dublin working with small teams, two projects at a time” — and Spanli assembles the site in front of you: opening, how i work, recent work, enquiries. The changes receipt reads: Added: 4 sections — opening, how i work, recent work, enquiries.
Sound familiar?
"Do you have a website?" — asked mid-conversation, by the client who was about to say yes.
What you have is a PDF in Drive and a profile on a platform that takes a cut and lists eleven cheaper people on the same screen. Your three best projects are buried in a chat thread. Every month you decide this is the month you fix it, right after the current deadline, which is how it has been for two years.
How it works
What Spanli does about it
In the demo beside each claim: the site Spanli built; then new enquiry arriving in the Spanli inbox; then the discovery week line being corrected — you click it, type “discovery week is 2,900”, and €3,400 becomes €2,900.
Your profile is enough to start
Paste your LinkedIn, confirm it's you, and the experience you've already written up becomes a site — services, background, the pitch. Nothing to write from scratch on a Sunday.
One place enquiries land
The site's form collects who they are, what they need, and when — into a single list in your dashboard, instead of DMs, three inboxes and a marketplace notification.
Change your rates in a minute
Prices and services are things you edit like filling in a form, then publish. No developer, no waiting, no invoice for a one-line change.
Everything on it
What your site includes
It's yours, not rented
Your own domain — searched, bought and connected inside Spanli — and a site nobody can rank you against on their own page.
Fits in the gaps
Kick a build off, close the laptop, and get an email when it's done. Come back and fix what's wrong by clicking it and saying so.
Everything's switched on by default
You remove the parts that aren't you.
- An opening that says what you do and who for
- A short bio
- How you work and what you stand for
- Your skills
- Your track record
- A few notes or articles if you write them
- Links to where else you are
- A contact form that feeds one enquiry list
Two ways in
Start from what you already have
LinkedIn door
Most freelancers use the LinkedIn door — the fastest possible version of "I have a website now." Rather explain it yourself? The describe door: two sentences about what you do and who you do it for, plus your logo and a few work photos with a note about each.
Modernize my site
Got an ancient portfolio somewhere? "Modernize my site" rebuilds it from the address.
Make it yours
Before the first build, you set the look.
- Quietly exceptionalElegant & refined
- The story, up frontBold & editorial
- Take a breathSoft & calm
- Built for the nightSleek & dark
- An evening to rememberGlamorous & vintage
- The season, consideredFashion magazine
In case you're wondering.
I'm already on freelance marketplaces. Why do I need this?
Because on a marketplace you're a row in a comparison. On your own site there's nothing to compare you to. Clients who find you either way tend to check the site before they commit — and having one costs you nothing to start.
Can clients book time or pay me through it?
No, deliberately. Spanli builds the site that wins the enquiry; invoicing and scheduling stay wherever you do them now. What you get is every enquiry in one list rather than scattered across apps.
Do I have to write the copy?
No. Paste the profile or describe the work, and Spanli writes the first version of everything. You change lines by pointing at them and saying what's wrong — quicker than writing them yourself, and far quicker than staring at an empty page.
I do three unrelated things. Does that break it?
No. Say so and you get a page per thing. Pages and sections are yours to add or remove at any point, in plain words.
What does it cost?
Your first site is free, permanently. Paid plans add your own domain and higher-quality build options for when the site starts earning.
