Website Design Plan
We take on the stress of making sure your site is protected, maintained, backed up and secure.
Your website is the face of your business. When people hear about you, the first thing they’ll do is hit google. What happens next?
Can they find you?
When they land on that first page, what does it say about your business? If it loads slow, doesn’t work on mobile or just looks really ugly, what does that say about what you’re like to work with?
We build websites that look modern and professional, and are easy to navigate. They work just as well on mobiles as they do on desktop (a must these days for good SEO rankings).
So let’s make you a site that shows off your best side.
Once a website goes live, it’s important to protect it from potential hacks, breaches and other threats that can bring your site down and get you blacklisted from Google; removing you from all search results and destroying your Google rankings. It’s also important to keep the site plugins, tools and other areas of the site updated and optimized for security, page loading speeds and better SEO rankings.
Our monthly plan takes the stress off of you in keeping your site safe and protected. We’re on your side making sure that month to month your site is protected, updated, maintained, backed up and is working great online. And when you’re on our plan, you’ll have a trusted webmaster you can reach out to at any point for help with updates, edits, additions or any potential website issues. Beats waiting on the phone for 30 minutes trying to get ahold of hosting support.

Frequently Asked Questions:
What’s the Process?
Research
We’ll send you a questionnaire to find out more about you and what you need. We’ll follow that up with a phone call, coffee meeting or skype to make sure we’re clear on what you’re looking to gain from your site.
Design
We believe the design phase is the most important part and like to spend time on it, mostly because we think it’s vital to get the look, feel and flow of your site right.

Final checks
Because all our sites are mobile-friendly this stage is really important. You get to check that you’re happy with everything, but we’ll also do bug checks on all major devices to make sure your site looks beautiful everywhere.

Training
We’ll teach you how to use your site. You will be able to update content and images and even add new pages or write a blog. You will also get access to videos that will step you through making changes so if you forget after our training you can refer back.
Ongoing Support
We’re not going anywhere. We offer two management packages (regular/complex sites), but even if you want to manage the site yourself we’re still here and able to help you. If you can’t work out how to do something, or you want to make more substantial changes in the future, just get in touch.
How long will it take?
Once we start working on your site it usually takes 4-6 weeks to build. This varies depending on how complex your site is and if you have everything ready to go (content being provided by clients is often the biggest hold up on sites being finished in time). We tend to be booked out 2 months in advance, but this will give you time to collect all the bits and pieces you’ll need to
How much will it cost?
The cost will vary depending on what sort of site you’re looking for. The cost can vary anywhere from $2,000 for a one-page brochure site up to $20,000 for a complex site.
Most custom designed basic small business websites will cost between $3,500-$5,000. Which includes custom design, building, hosting, SSL certificate, domain name, and I add a bonus of 3 months of maintaining the back end of your site for FREE.
If you want more features, like complex forms, online bookings, membership etc, you’ll be looking at spending more money. To get the clearest picture of what price range you’re looking out, come and fill in our quote form and we’ll get back to you with how much you’ll be looking at.
Whatever scope we agree on, we work hard to make sure you come away feeling that you’ve got exceptional value.
What you need to provide?
You will need to provide all the written content for the site, as well as images, such as logos and photos.
If you need help with writing content, design or photography, let us know and we’ll recommend someone who we trust.
