How Your Website’s Energy Impacts Who You Attract

I rebranded to The Saudade Studio because I believe that a website is far more than a digital placeholder for your business. It’s a living, breathing extension of your brand. It's a space that tells your story, evokes emotion, and communicates who you are as a person. And just like people, websites have an energy too.

What Do I Mean by “Website Energy”?
Think of your website as a person walking into a room. Some websites feel warm, welcoming, and magnetic, drawing the right people in. Others might feel cold, distant, or chaotic, leaving visitors unsure if they are in the right place. This energy is not just about aesthetics, it’s every design choice, every word, every image and the way these elements put together make someone feel. Let me show you an example!
What do you feel when you see my website's home screen below?

For my branding, I draw inspiration from the Portuguese word saudade [sow-dah-dhe] - a profound sense of longing, nostalgia, and emotion that lingers in your heart.
I want to infuse this feeling into my work, creating websites that don’t just look beautiful but resonate deeply, inviting the right people to connect with the brand behind it.
How Your Website Energy is Shaping Who You Attract
Clarity Leads to Connection ~ If your website communicates your story clearly, your ideal audience knows immediately that they’ve found a space meant for them. Confusion, on the other hand, pushes people away. When visitors feel understood and seen, they’re naturally drawn to you as a person and then your services.
Emotion Drives Action ~ Maya Angelou once said something along these lines:
People remember how you made them feel more than what you said.
A website that evokes curiosity, warmth or inspiration will instantly captivate the clients who resonate with your energy, which are the ones most likely to value and invest in your offerings.
The Law of Attraction ~ Your brand’s energy isn’t just visual. It’s verbal, tonal, and emotional. When your website consistently reflects your unique personality, story and values, it acts as a filter using the Law of Attraction by bringing in people who are aligned with you and gently pushing away anyone who is not in tune with your energy.
Intuition Guides Experience ~ The flow of your website, the pace and navigation affect how people experience your brand. A site that feels intuitive, effortless and thoughtfully designed encourages visitors to stay a little awhile, exploring and engaging.
Your Website as a Reflection of Your Soul
At its core, your website is a mirror of your inner brand energy. Just like saudade, it’s about subtle emotional resonance, the delicate pull that draws people in, the feeling of belonging that makes them stay awhile.
By having a website that reflect your authentic story, emotional essence and aligns with your heart, it has the power to attract the people who were always meant to find you.
