We have designed thousands of WordPress and hand-coded websites.
Because we're small, we can move quickly. We are right up-to-date with the latest tech to ensure clients' websites are fast, responsive, and secure.
When the average time spent on a website is 52 seconds (see Klipfolio Stats) - you need to leave a positive and lasting impression.

** WordPress is a Content Management System where you log in and can easily add pages.
Hand-coded websites are faster and perfect for SEO site speed (a factor determining Google's page quality score) but each page is created individually. HTML template pages can be made with new content poured into them. You just have to know how to "swim between the tags" (i.e. "what you're doing").
Many people are choosing hand-built sites. I charge the same for general updates. See our website development page for prices including a list of what can be done in an hour ($99).
WordPress is my favourite CMS (content management system). It extends my abilities as there is a community of designers releasing themes and creating thousands of tricky plugins so that you can do whatever you want on your site. It's very heavy though and sometimes the number of plugins and animated bells and whistles can weigh your site down.
In addition to website design, we offer a range of other website services including ongoing website development, Search Engine Optimisation, and website maintenance to help you get found and get the most out of your online presence. In fact most of our time these days is spent creating and revising content under the banner of Search Engine Optimisation.
Gone are the days where you build a site and it automatically starts attracting visitors. You need to constantly work on a website. If you don't upgrade, tweak and update your website with fresh content yourself, you can guarantee that your competition is. You can do a lot of this work personally, but most likely, you will need help.
(A$ incl.GST) | Updates & Coding | |
---|---|---|
Updates (content/HTML/CSS etc.) | $99/hr | We can do a lot in 1hr * |
Google Ad Management | $110 weekly managed campaigns | (incl. GST) |
Most of what we do here at Geoffrey has to do with increasing website traffic. Search Engine Optimisation (or SEO) has become our bread and butter. It means optimising the code and conent on your site to make it super easy for search engines to find and then list your website on a search result page (SERP).
"After being with a well known Perth Company for some time, we got fed up with paying ridiculous fees and not getting results. We found Geoffrey Websites by scrolling through Google and reached out to them. After our initial consultation everything just fell into place. Edwin has helped us build an incredible market place website that just keeps scaling. He is extremely knowledgeable, great to work with, explains everything in plain language (not computer language) and has helped our website reach remarkable levels and results in a short time. We would highly recommend Edwin & his team and can’t thank Geoffrey Websites enough for what we have achieved."

Our 10 step web design process (see below) starts with a consultation. We need to understand your business goals and needs so we can create a custom website design that reflects your brand and values. You don't pay a cent until you like what we show you. This ensures that our website design and marketing ideas are in alignment with yours.
Two years is along time on the web. Similar to dog years, each year is like 7. New techniques, coding frameworks and Search Engine Goalposts keep moving all the time. You really need to be on top of all this to get ahead.
We can upgrade or add content to any website, no matter when it was built.
Having said that, it is often cheaper to rebuild a new website using the latest code and CSS frameworks. You can bring old content up to date with new content rewriting tools such as ChatGPT (AI).
We have recently been using AI (Artificial Intelligence) to rewrite content for clients and the (measurable) traffic and new client engagement results are astounding.
"We have used Geoffrey Websites for updates, security and maintenance on the Monford Group Company website. Edwin is reliable, creative and always makes really good suggestions. Would highly recommend him to others."
