Websites that earn their keep.

I build fast, accessible websites for Australian small businesses — at a fixed price, on a date we agree up front, on a domain and hosting you own outright.

What you actually get

Not a template with your logo dropped on it. Every site is built from scratch for the business it belongs to.

  • Built to be found

    Clean markup, fast pages and proper metadata, so search engines can actually read what your business does. No plugin required to make it work.

  • Fast on a bad connection

    Static pages with no bloated page builder behind them. They load quickly on regional mobile data, which is where a lot of your customers are.

  • Accessible by default

    Built to WCAG 2.2 AA — real headings, keyboard navigation, honest colour contrast. Better for every visitor, and it keeps you on the right side of the DDA.

  • Yours, entirely

    Domain, hosting and code in accounts registered in your name. No proprietary platform, no monthly ransom, no fee to leave.

  • One person, start to finish

    You talk to the person doing the work. No account manager relaying messages, no offshore handoff, no wondering who is actually building it.

  • A fixed price, in writing

    You get scope, cost and a delivery date before anything starts. If the work grows, we agree it first — you will never open a surprise invoice.

Packages

Three ways to start

Most businesses fit one of these. If yours does not, the Custom package exists for exactly that reason.

How it works

No mystery, no black box

  1. 01

    A conversation

    A 30-minute call or a long email — whichever you prefer. I want to understand what the business does, who you are trying to reach, and what the site has to achieve. No pitch deck.

  2. 02

    A written proposal

    You get a fixed scope, a fixed price and a delivery date in writing before anything starts. If the honest answer is that you need something smaller than you asked for, that is what the proposal will say.

  3. 03

    Content and structure

    We agree the sitemap and gather copy, photos and logos. This is the step that most often stalls a project, so I give you a simple checklist rather than a blank page, and I will write first drafts if you would rather not.

Tell me what you are trying to build.

A short conversation costs nothing and you will get an honest answer — including if the honest answer is that you do not need me.
