About Osborn Online Hi, I'm Dan.
The one person behind Osborn Online. Years in television and film, then digital - now building websites, SEO and ads for small businesses from Hassocks, West Sussex.
- One person, start to finishThe first call, the build, every fix and every report - you deal with me, not an account manager.
- Websites, search, ads and automationEverything a small business needs to get found and booked, joined up because it's all done by the same person.
- Hassocks-based, UK-wideWorking with businesses across Sussex and the UK, mostly by call and video, with meetings in person by arrangement.
How I got here
Not the usual route into web design - and I think that's why I do it the way I do.
- 1Where it started
Television and film
Years in TV and film, a long stretch of it at the BBC. It's where I got curious about the technology behind how things actually work.
- 2Into digital
Scale My Salon
Commercial Manager, helping launch the PMU Society, which went on to be hugely successful. I learned websites, ads, automation and SEO by building, testing and refining.
- 3October 2022
My own projects
Taking on clients of my own alongside, and digging into the details that separate a website that works from one that just looks the part.
- 4September 2025
Fully on my own
I went full-time so I could spend real hours on every build and put properly considered work into it, instead of chasing speed and volume.

Osborn Online
Websites, SEO, ads and automation for small businesses across Sussex and the UK - every part of it done by me. See the work.
A bit about me
I grew up in Sussex, spent ten years in London, then moved back in 2023. Since coming home I've got married and become a dad to a little girl.
Working for myself means I get to do work I'm proud of and be around for the people who matter. I think that balance shows up in the care I put into every project.
When you work with me, you deal with me - the first call, the build, every fix and every report. No account managers, no hand-offs.
Doing it properly is the whole point
With AI tools and drag-and-drop builders, anyone can put a website live. Doing it properly is a different thing - and it's the only way I know how to work.
Done properly, not just done.
I won't call a site finished until it works, looks great and has the technical foundations to rank. No rushing, and never a "that'll do".
Custom built, every time.
Built from scratch and shaped around your business, so it's faster and cleaner than anything squeezed into someone else's template.
Your time, given back.
You could spend weeks wrestling with a site and still not do it justice. Hand it to me and get on with the work you do best.
