How much does web design cost in Perth?
It depends on scope and complexity. A small business website can start from around $5,000, while large custom websites and web applications with integrations and bespoke features can be $200,000 or more. The main factors are the number of pages and content types, custom versus template design, features and integrations (such as e-commerce, booking systems or a CRM), content migration, and accessibility or security requirements. Once we understand what you need, we’ll give you a clear quote.

How long does it take to design and build a website?
Most small websites take six to ten weeks from kick-off to launch. Larger sites with lots of content, integrations or custom features take longer, typically a few months. Quick feedback and having your content ready are the two biggest things that keep a project on schedule.
Can you redesign my website without losing my Google rankings?
Yes. Before launch we map your existing pages to the new site, keep important addresses where possible and set up 301 redirects for anything that moves, so your search rankings and backlinks carry across. We also carry over page titles and descriptions, and monitor Google Search Console after launch.
WordPress or Drupal: which should I choose?
WordPress suits most business, not-for-profit and marketing websites: it’s flexible, easy for editors and economical to build and support. Drupal suits large, complex, content-rich sites with detailed permissions and integrations, which is why it’s popular with government. We work with both, so we’ll recommend whichever fits your needs and budget.
Do you host and maintain the websites you build?
Yes. We offer secure Australian website hosting, and our website security service keeps WordPress, Drupal and Laravel sites patched, backed up and monitored. You’re not locked in: you own your website and can host it wherever you like.
Can you take over and maintain an existing WordPress website?
Yes. We regularly take over WordPress sites built by other agencies or developers. We start with a health check of the site, plugins and hosting, fix any urgent issues, and then keep it patched and supported through our website security service.
