What you get

Everything your website needs, under one roof

Whether you’re a sparky, a physio, an accountant or the best café in town, you need a website that looks the part, loads fast on a phone and makes it easy for people to get in touch.

Custom design

Designed around your business and brand, not a template that looks like everyone else’s.

📱

Mobile-first

Most customers will find you on their phone, so we build for small screens first.

⚡

Fast, secure hosting

Managed hosting, SSL, daily backups, and security and core updates are all handled for you.

🛠️

Monthly changes

New photos, updated hours, a new service? Flick us an email. 60 minutes of changes a month is included.

Email done properly

We connect Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, or set up 1–2 basic mailboxes, with MX, SPF and DKIM sorted.

🤝

Real support

Email us any time and we’ll reply within 1–2 business days.

FAQ

Common questions

Is there really no setup fee?

Yep. Design, build and launch are all covered by the $149/month, so there’s nothing to pay up front beyond your first month.

How long is the contract?

There’s a 12-month minimum. After that it rolls on month to month, and either of us can end it with 30 days’ notice. If you need to cancel within the first 12 months, you can still take your domain and website content with you by paying a $600 incl. GST cancellation fee.

Who owns my domain?

We register your domain and look after it for the first 12 months. After your minimum term, the domain and your WordPress website are yours, and we’ll transfer the domain into your name. If you already own a domain, you keep it and we simply connect it.

Who owns my content?

You do. Your words, photos and logo are always yours, and after 12 months the WordPress website itself is yours too.

What about email?

Your email belongs to you. Most clients use Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, which you pay for directly (about $8–15 + GST per user per month), and we connect it to your domain. For very small businesses we can include 1–2 basic mailboxes on our hosting instead.

What counts as a simple change?

Things like updating text, swapping photos, changing opening hours, adding a staff member or posting a news item. You get 60 minutes of these each month.
