What is included
Website design and build: what you get
Website Design Townsville from our Belgian Gardens office: a page for each thing you do, named the way people search, live in about three weeks.
Custom design in your brand
Mobile first; your logo used as drawn, never recoloured.
Every page written
One page per service, each named the way people search.
Tappable phone on every page
And an enquiry form that emails you and acknowledges the enquirer.
Your photos, prepared
Cropped, compressed, named and captioned for search.
Local and AI search foundations
Titles, structured data, FAQ schema, answer-first paragraphs, geo-qualified links, crawler access verified.
Analytics and Search Console
Connected before launch, so you can see what people searched to find you.
Business Profile brought into line
Same name, address, phone and hours as the site.
Redirects, hosting, SSL, staging
Every old address redirected; domain cutover done by us with no gap in email.
How it is priced
Website options
Option 1
Landing page
one page · quoted
For a Google Ads or social campaign, an event or a single offer. The offer, the reasons to trust you and the phone number sit at the top, with an enquiry form that emails you.
Option 2
Up to 5 pages
small business site · quoted
Home, about, contact and a page for each main service. Suits a business with a few services that needs to look established and be found when people search its name.
Option 3
10+ pages
full service site · quoted
A page for every service, named the way people search, plus a blog and room to grow. Our standard build for trades and service businesses that want to win more local searches.
Each option is one fixed price for the agreed scope, quoted from a short brief, with every page written by us. Hosting and care from launch is a flat $780 a year + GST. Online stores, bookings and member areas are scoped on their own.
Website Design Townsville quotes are written as one fixed price, so the number you approve is the number you pay.
How the drafting works
We write every page, put the whole site together on a private staging address, and send you the link. You read it the way a customer would, tell us what is wrong, and we change it. That goes back and forth until you are happy, and then it goes live on your domain. The only things we cannot invent are your facts: hours, the phone number, the address, prices where you publish them, credentials and licence numbers.
Website projects slip for one reason: content. Logo artwork, the facts only you hold, and photos are what we need from you. Phone photos are fine and more is better than fewer. Photos improve the site; they do not hold up the launch.
What is in the price
A site is quoted from a brief as one fixed price for the agreed scope, with no stages to buy and nothing held back. The page count, the features and whether it is a brochure site, a booking site or a store decide the figure. Privacy, terms, a form thank-you page and a proper 404 come on top and are not counted. If a page is worth adding while we are writing, it goes in. Small changes as we go are part of the job. A substantial change to what was agreed, a client portal, an online store, a second design direction after one is signed off, is quoted in writing before any work begins.
Fifty percent to commence, which books your place in the schedule, and fifty percent on launch. Domain renewal is the one third-party cost, twenty to sixty dollars a year, paid by you to the registrar and kept in your name.
The care plan
From launch, hosting and SSL, updates applied, backups verified, uptime and forms monitored, security patched, small changes and wording tweaks done for you, and someone to ring when something is not right. A flat annual fee that does not move with your traffic or how often you ask. It is not optional. A site that collects enquiries is not a thing to leave unattended, and if a form stops emailing you on a Friday afternoon you will not find out from the website.
Timeline
Design concept and approval, three to five days. Copywriting and build, one and a half to two weeks. Your draft review, three to five days. Final checks, redirects, email checks, domain cutover and launch, two to three days. About three weeks from the deposit. What actually sets the launch date is how fast the marked-up draft comes back.
On every page
The phone number sits at the top as a tap-to-call link. The heading says plainly what the page is about. At the bottom is an enquiry form that emails you and sends the customer a reply so they know it arrived.
Behind each page is its own title and description for Google, and structured data that tells search engines and AI assistants what the business is and where it works.
Moving from an old site
If you already have a website, the pages that bring visitors today are listed before anything is rebuilt. Each old address is redirected to its new page, so Google carries the history across and anyone with an old link still lands in the right place.
Where your current site sits on a Wix or directory plan, we move the domain into your name so the new site is yours outright.
Photos from your own jobs
A Townsville customer can spot stock photography of somewhere that is clearly not here. Photos of your own jobs, vans, team and premises do more for trust than any stock image, and phone photos work. We crop, correct and compress them so pages still load quickly on mobile data.
A site built for local search
Each service gets its own page with a heading that matches how people search, such as roof restoration in Townsville. The areas you cover are named in the copy. Your Business Profile is brought into line with the site, so the name, phone and hours match everywhere.
Google Analytics and Search Console are set up in your name at launch, so you can see who visits and which searches find you.
Hosting and care after launch
The care plan is a flat $780 a year + GST from launch. It covers hosting, the SSL certificate, updates, backups, form monitoring and small content changes. The site is watched so problems are found by us first.
Townsville
Websites for Townsville businesses
Most Townsville customers find a business on a phone, often between jobs or on a lunch break. So every page puts the phone number and the next step where a thumb can reach them, and loads quickly on mobile data.
The whole site is drafted on a private address you can open on your phone and mark up in your own time. If you would rather go through it in person, the office is in Belgian Gardens.

Questions
Website Design Townsville: common questions
Do I have to write anything?
No. We write every page from your facts and put it on a private staging address for you to mark up.
Do I need a new domain?
Usually not. Keep the one that runs your email. We copy the mail records before anything is touched and make the change outside business hours with test emails in and out.
What happens to my old page addresses?
Every one is redirected to its replacement, so nothing that ranks or is printed on a card dies at cutover.
Who owns the domain and the accounts?
You do, on your own billing. We take nothing from third-party costs.
Can I cancel my Wix or Localsearch plan?
After launch, yes, after checking the notice period and whether the provider owns the site. It is your decision, and it happens once the new site is live.
How long does a new website take?
About three weeks from the deposit. The date is mostly set by how quickly the marked-up draft comes back.
What does hosting and care cost?
A flat $780 a year + GST from launch, covering hosting, SSL, updates, backups, form monitoring and small changes.
Can customers book through the site?
Yes. A booking form or a booking tool can be built in so customers pick a time without ringing. It is scoped in the quote.
Can I update the site myself?
Yes, if you want to. Small changes such as hours, prices and photos are also covered by the care plan, so you can send them to us instead.
Who checks that enquiries still arrive?
We do. Form delivery is monitored under the care plan, and a failed send is fixed as soon as it shows up.
