Website investment

What does a better website involve?

The right scope depends on what you need the website to do. A focused business site, a careful redesign and a store with operational integrations are different projects. Our Melbourne team quotes around the work required, not a package label that hides the important decisions.

Tell us about your website What shapes the quote

Where projects begin

Our minimum website project value, plus GST.

The final proposal depends on your goals, the existing site, the amount of design and content work, the features needed and the care required during launch.

A focused business site

Clear pages, a clear next step

  • The number of page types and audiences
  • How much content is ready
  • Forms and the enquiry route

A careful redesign

Keep what works, rebuild the rest

  • What has to move across, and what gets rewritten
  • URLs, redirects and search visibility
  • Integrations and systems already in place

A store with integrations

Products, buying decisions, operations

  • Catalogue size and product structure
  • Payments, shipping and connected systems
  • How orders are managed day to day

How we quote

What shapes the quote.

Every proposal is built from these. The number of distinct page types, content sources and audience journeys matters more than a raw page count.

Questions

Investment questions.

The things people usually ask about cost. Something else on your mind? Ask us directly.

No. Our Melbourne team quotes around the work required, not a package label that hides the important decisions. Two sites with the same number of pages can be very different projects.

It’s our minimum website project value, excluding GST: where projects begin. Your proposal is based on the scope we agree, so it depends on your goals, the existing site, design and content work, features and launch.

Our standard arrangement is 50% at commencement and 50% on completion. Your proposal confirms the terms for your project.

Hosting, maintenance and later changes are discussed separately unless they’re included in your proposal.

Your current URL if you have one, what you want to achieve, your timing and any must-have functions. That’s enough for a useful first conversation.
