Pricing
Honest pricing, no surprises.
We publish our prices in full. Most sites fall into one of three bands; what you pay depends on how many pages, how much custom work, and how complex the integrations.
The three bands
Starting points, not ceilingsfrom $4,800
Personal and single-professional
A focused site for one person: an academic, a consultant, a sole tradesperson, a coach, a private practitioner. Typically five to eight pages.
Best for
- Academics and researchers
- Individual consultants
- Sole-trader tradespeople
- Allied health practitioners
- Authors and speakers
from $9,600
Small business
The standard small business site. Eight to fifteen pages, a clear services structure, enquiry forms, and the search foundations to be found locally.
Best for
- Trades businesses with a small team
- Professional service firms
- Local service businesses
- Hospitality, short of online ordering
from $18,000
Larger or specialised
Larger sites, multi-location or multi-brand businesses, sites with a substantial content or publications library, or specialised integrations. Scoped case by case.
Care, with hosting included
Monthly or annualEvery site we build is on a care plan, billed monthly or annually. It starts at $160 per month, all in, and runs between $160 and $280 for most small business sites. Hosting is included and is the smallest part of the cost: the fee is for content changes within a business day, monitoring, an annual review, and support from the people who built the site.
The fine print
How we billWhat shapes the price
- How many pages, and how much content structure.
- Custom design complexity, standard versus one-off.
- Integrations: booking, payments, mailing lists.
- Content readiness: written and shot, or not yet.
- Migrations from a complex existing site.
How we bill
- Fixed-price proposals. Once the scope is agreed, the price is the price.
- A 50 per cent deposit to start; the balance at launch.
- Hosting and care monthly or annually, your choice.
- No lock-in beyond the current month. If you leave, we hand the site over cleanly.
A studio that hides its rates is a studio that does not trust its own pricing.
The only way to give you a real price is to talk about your project. A thirty-minute conversation is usually enough to scope a proposal.
