Web design studio

We build it. We host it. We watch it.

Custom websites for businesses that need more than a launch day. We design and build it, run it on our own hosting, keep it fast and secure, and send you one page of plain-English numbers every month.

Why we work this way

Most agencies hand you a website and vanish. We stay on the hook for it — every month, forever.

Services

Five things. One team.

01 / 05

01

Custom website development

We start with what you sell and who buys it, then design and build from there. No stock layout with your logo dropped on top — every page is made for your business.

  • Design concepts before code
  • Built mobile-first
  • Forms, bookings, payments
  • You own the files

02

Premium hosting

Managed servers with daily off-site backups, free SSL, a firewall and a global CDN. We monitor uptime around the clock — if it goes down, we know before you do.

  • Daily backups, kept 30 days
  • SSL, firewall, malware scans
  • Staging site for safe changes
  • 99.9% uptime guarantee

03

Website management

Plugin updates, core updates, security patches and uptime monitoring are covered by your plan. Content changes — new photos, price updates, extra pages — are charged at $120 an hour, tracked in 15-minute blocks and itemised on your invoice, so you always know what you paid for.

  • Updates & patching included
  • Changes $120/hr
  • Billed in 15-min blocks
  • One business day response

04

Monthly analytics

One page, every month: who visited, where they came from, what they clicked, which pages made you money — and what we're changing next, with the reason why.

  • Plain English, one page
  • Enquiries and calls tracked
  • Keyword movement
  • Next month's plan

05

SEO optimization

Technical clean-up, keyword and competitor research, on-page work, Google Business Profile and local listings, plus content built around what your customers actually search.

  • Technical audit and fixes
  • Local and map pack
  • Content plan
  • Monthly rank tracking

How it works

Four steps from first call to live site.

01

Discovery call

Twenty minutes on what your business does, who you want to reach, and what the current site isn't doing. You leave with a fixed quote, not an hourly guess.

Week 1

02

Design & build

You see the home page design first and sign off before we build the rest. Two rounds of changes are included at every stage, so nothing gets built on a guess.

Weeks 2–4

03

Launch & migrate

We move your domain and email across, set up analytics and Search Console, run the speed and SEO checks, then push it live. No downtime, no lost email.

Week 5

04

Manage & improve

Hosting, updates and monitoring from day one. Your first report lands 30 days after launch, and changes you ask for are quoted before we start them.

Ongoing

Monthly reporting

Know exactly what your website did last month.

Most agencies export forty pages from Google Analytics and call it a report. Ours is one page, in plain English, and it ends with what we're changing next month and why.

  • Visitors, enquiries and where they came from
  • Which pages bring in work — and which don't
  • Keyword positions, up or down, month on month
  • Every change we made, and the time it took
  • Our recommendation for next month

“The old site took nine seconds to load and we never knew if anyone was using it. Now it's quick, and I get a report I can actually understand.”

Common questions

Before you
get in touch.

Do I own my website?

Yes. The domain, the design, the content and the files are yours. If you ever leave, we hand over a full copy of the site and help your next developer move it.

How much do website changes cost?

Changes are $120 an hour, tracked in 15-minute blocks. Most edits — swapping photos, updating prices, adding a team member — land well under an hour. Anything we expect to take more than an hour gets quoted first, so nothing turns up on your invoice as a surprise.

How long does a build take?

A typical small business site takes four to six weeks from the first call. Sites with e-commerce or booking systems take longer — you'll have the timeline before you commit to anything.

Do I have to use your hosting?

No, but it's where most of the value sits. Our hosting includes monitoring, backups, updates and support. If you'd rather host elsewhere, we'll build the site and hand it over.

Can you work on my existing website?

Often, yes. We'll audit what you have for free and tell you honestly whether it's worth improving or rebuilding. Sometimes the fix is a week of work, not a new site.

How long until SEO works?

Technical fixes show up in weeks. Rankings for competitive terms usually take three to six months of steady work. Anyone promising page one in 30 days is guessing.

something real.

Twenty minutes, no pitch. Tell us what your business does and what the site needs to do, and we'll tell you honestly what it takes.
