One-off setup

Professional copywriting

$495

What's included
  • 20-minute "extract" callYou talk, we record. We ask the questions that uncover your unique selling points — no typing required.
  • Five pages, fully writtenHome, about, services, projects and contact — professional tone, approachable voice, ready to publish.
  • SEO foundationWe weave your target locations and services into the copy so Google understands what you do from day one.
  • Conversion psychologyHeadlines and hooks designed to stop scrollers and get them hitting the "call now" button.

a rough sense of the maths

What does a new site actually make back?

Punch in your average job value and a realistic guess at how many extra enquiries a better site might bring in. We'll show you the break-even point. (Our average client earns their monthly fee back within the first 4 days of month one.)

Assumes a 30% enquiry-to-job conversion — in line with our customer average. This is a rough estimator, not a guarantee.

the fine print

Questions we hear a lot. Honest answers.

If it's not in here, just ask — we'd rather answer it now than after you've signed.

Topic 01

Money & billing

Is it really custom design for $79?

Yes. No cookie-cutter templates. We use modern AI tools to speed up the coding side, which lets us build a site tailored to your brand, colours and logo for a fraction of the usual cost.

Is it really $0 upfront?

Yes. We design your homepage mockup for free. You only start paying when the site goes live and you're happy with it — no deposit, no card details to get started.

What's included in the monthly fee?

Everything: hosting, security, SSL, backups, updates and technical support. On Standard and Scale you also get content updates, SEO work and Google Business Profile management.

Can I upgrade later?

Absolutely. Most clients start on Starter ($79). When you want more service pages or a portfolio, we switch you to Standard. No penalty fees, no downtime.

Topic 02

Ownership & portability

What happens after 24 months?

Unlike agencies that rent you a site forever, our lease-to-own model means that after 24 monthly payments the code is yours. Transfer it to your own hosting, or stay with us on a reduced "management only" fee.

When do I officially own my website?

You own your text, images and brand assets from day one. Full ownership of the custom code and design license vests to you automatically after 24 successful monthly payments.

Can I cancel my plan before 24 months?

Yes. There's a 12-month minimum to cover our upfront build costs. After month 12, cancel any month with 30 days' notice. If you cancel before the 24-month ownership milestone, the site is taken offline at the end of your billing period.

Topic 03

Process & support

What if I don't have photos?

No worries. We have a library of high-quality, Australian-specific stock images (power outlets, local architecture, site shots) we can use until you have your own project photos.

How long does it take to go live?

Most sites launch within 7 days of approval. We send a draft in 48–72 hours, you give feedback, we finalise. It's designed to be fast.

What if I need changes after launch?

Technical maintenance is included for everyone. For content edits (text and images), Standard and Scale include dedicated support time. On Starter we charge a flat hourly rate.

Why not just use Wix or Squarespace?

Those tools make you the designer, the developer and the IT support. We let you stay the business owner. Our sites also score 100/100 on Google's speed test — Wix averages 55. That difference shows up as more calls.

Do you work with businesses outside Perth?

Absolutely. We build websites for small businesses right across Australia — Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide and everywhere in between.
