Our Melbourne Website Services
We are a one-stop web development agency with a large group of onsite website designers and ecommerce website developers. Our web design company is separated into two teams, each working on either template or custom website development services.
1.) Template-Based Web Designs
Searching for an affordable website option? Your Melbourne organization might be interested in a template website!
Instead of creating design mockups and developing your website in a custom theme, we can hand-pick several website templates to share with you that closely match your desired look and feel.
Don't worry though, you'll be able to select your desired theme for us to install on your development site.
From there, we'll customize the template to match your color scheme and then set up your web pages.
The starting price for a templated website design is about $3,750, and it can be ready in just a few weeks. For templated ecommerce web designs, the price and turnaround will be higher.
2.) Custom Website Designs
As a custom web development agency, we love to begin every Melbourne website design service from scratch.
By utilizing this approach, our team can produce customized mockups that align with your brand guidelines. This will give you a glimpse into your website's look and feel prior to the start of website development work. These mockups can be altered to your satisfaction, allowing you to finalize the design concept and proceed with confidence.
Once you've given your approval for the design mockup, our web development team will merge it into a custom template. Opting for a custom theme can provide several benefits, including a simplified codebase that usually delivers enhanced page speed and usability, as it was tailored specifically for your Melbourne small business.
The starting price for a custom web design is about $9,500, and it can be ready in just a few weeks. For custom ecommerce website designs, the cost and turnaround will be higher.
3.) Website Maintenance
After the launch of your website, or if you have one, you might be interested in web support services.
We think of website maintenance as a reactive support service where we provide your Melbourne organization access to a web developer or ecommerce web developer who can fix just about any problem.
Here are a few examples of site requests that might require service from Melbourne website support companies, including:
- Upgrading your website platform to the latest version.
- Installing app, theme or plugin updates.
- Adding new web pages as you release new information.
- Freshening your blog with new content.
- Rearranging your Melbourne site's navigation menu.
- Making your pages faster to pass Google Core Web Vitals.
- Backing up your website's files and databases.
- Making your website look and feel better.
- Troubleshooting Google Search Console coverage concerns.
- Enhancing technical SEO with structured data, open graph tags, etc.
- Investigating and solving any other website issue.
- Importing / exporting ecommerce product data.

In addition to designing Melbourne-area websites, our company also provides website development services to those in Boca Raton, Brandon, Cape Coral, Coral Springs, Daytona Beach, Deltona, Fort Lauderdale, Gainesville, Hollywood, Jacksonville, Lakeland, Largo, Melbourne, Miami, Orlando, Palm Bay, Pensacola, Pompano Beach, Port St Lucie, Sarasota, Spring Hill, St Petersburg, Tallahassee, Tampa, and West Palm Beach.
Picking a Platform for Your Melbourne, FL Website
Your Melbourne website is likely powered by a content management system, or CMS. Our web developers and ecommerce developers are well-versed in multiple platforms, but we provide our best website design services in WordPress. We also develop ecommerce sites in Shopify and WooCommerce.
1.) WordPress
More than 40% of websites in Florida and the rest of the country are powered by WordPress.
Our web development agency chooses to specialize in WordPress not only because it is the most popular CMS platform in Melbourne, but also because it is simply the best overall. While there are dozens of content management systems to consider, we've found WordPress to be the most scalable platform for designing websites.
- WordPress has thousands of third-party plugins available that can provide additional functionality for your website.
- There's a huge community of WordPress contributors helping to make the platform more stable, secure, and scalable.
- WordPress is popular among professional website development agencies and freelance website designers, making it possible to find a local Melbourne web developer to work with you.
2.) WooCommerce
If you want an ecommerce website using WordPress, you'll likely need a WooCommerce website designer in Melbourne.We've helped startups and existing ecommerce companies develop great WooCommerce stores in Melbourne or other parts of United States.
These are some of the reasons our ecommerce website developers like WooCommerce:
- If you need a custom template with complex functionality, but have a limited budget, we often recommend WooCommerce. This is mostly due to custom theme and functionality work being cheaper in WooCommerce.
- If your Melbourne small business already has a WordPress site, we often recommend WooCommerce. If you are happy with the look and feel of your content-based website, why invest the time and money into remaking that website just to add ecommerce?
- We often recommend WooCommerce for Melbourne small businesses who prefer open-source software. There are no monthly fees to use WordPress or WooCommerce. As an alternative, Shopify has monthly fees and their apps are often more expensive than WooCommerce or WordPress plugins.
- If you're in an industry that's not supported by Shopify, try WooCommerce.
3.) Shopify
Shopify is the most popular SaaS ecommerce platform. If you want to run an ecommerce website using Shopify, you'll need a Shopify web designer in Melbourne.
We can design a website for your online business in or around Florida that runs on the Shopify platform.
Here are some reasons our ecommerce website developers like Shopify:
- For Melbourne merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce system, we often recommend Shopify. Shopify allows you to run an ecommerce business in Melbourne without the hassle of hosting configurations or platform updates.
- When Melbourne web companies don't need a lot of custom functionality, we often recommend Shopify. It is often more expensive to develop custom functionality within Shopify than WordPress. Additionally, Shopify apps often have monthly fees versus WooCommerce plugins that are more affordable.
- We often recommend Shopify for Melbourne ecommerce businesses that rely heavily on fast delivery times for development and marketing initiatives. It is often faster with Shopify to test out new products, themes, apps, or ideas.
Questions to Ask a Melbourne, FL Web Designer
You should ask a few questions of your prospective Melbourne website development or ecommerce web development company before starting a project. Here are some we get asked before starting a custom web development or ecommerce development project:
- Does the website designer outsource the project? Because we've got our own team of USA web developers and ecommerce web designers, we don't outsource.
- Do the web designers plan to create 301 redirects to help with SEO? We always create 301 redirects because we understand how important they are for Melbourne search engine optimization.
- Does the web designer plan to create a mockup, or provide template samples, before starting the website? We find it is easier to create a design mockup for Melbourne website projects to help everyone understand the design direction before the website build gets too far along. However, that is only possible if you choose a custom web development service. If you opt for a template-based website, we'll provide several template samples for you to review instead.
- Which CMS platform does your Melbourne web designer plan to use on your website project? Due to its popularity, scalability, and ease of use, we love WordPress. For ecommerce sites, we recommend WooCommerce or Shopify.
- How fast can your Melbourne web design team turn things around? It takes us about 2-3 months to complete custom web development projects, and 3-4 weeks to complete template websites. Ecommerce developments often take longer.
- Does the website design firm have examples of creative solutions? As a comprehensive web development agency, we enjoy a design or functionality challenge! Simply reach out to set up a phone call to discuss your needs!
