Ben Spooner.

I build modern websites and help businesses keep them healthy over time.

Build, [review, & improve].

To keep websites alive requires someone to continually review and improve all areas of the website stack, which goes far beyond the visible site.

Selected projects.

Internal Audit Engine

CopyLint

A custom auditing engine for checking copy, metadata, terminology, and consistency across pages.

Service Website

Connection Clinic

A new therapy practice website built around trust, service clarity, and long-term maintainability.

Web Application

GoAgain

A single-page progressive web app for rhythm practice, built as an interactive product rather than a conventional website.

Connection Clinic

He understood what the site needed beyond just the design - structure, usability, performance, and how it would be maintained over time.

How I got here.

Before moving into modern web work, my life was centred around music. I taught drums and piano privately, performed at festivals, and composed for some animated films.

One project I’m especially proud of was Beginner to Composer In 14 Days. It came from a gap I kept seeing in music education - students were often taught pieces and theory in isolation, with little to no focus on composition or improvisation. My view was always that creativity should start from day one, not after years of study.

So I built a step-by-step method around that idea, taking students from absolute beginner to writing their own music on a real lead sheet.

That way of thinking carried naturally into web work. I enjoy understanding the real problem, building the right structure around it, and turning something complex into something clear, useful and manageable.

I still maintain music projects alongside client work - music is still very much in my bones - but my focus today is building and maintaining modern websites.

Say hi.
