Most websites we replace were built with the right intentions and the wrong approach: drag-and-drop builders, plugin stacks, subscriptions piling up, eventually breaking. We don't work that way. We build properly, once, so it's still working five years from now.
From design through to development, hosting and ongoing maintenance, your site remains performant and fresh without you having to think about it. Tell us what you need. We'll take it from there.
Built once. Built properly. Still working in five years.
Content sites your team can manage
Sites you can update yourself without calling a developer for every little change. Built with a dashboard anyone can understand.
Custom builds when off-the-shelf won't cut it
When the project genuinely needs something custom, we build it from scratch, engineered so it grows with you instead of against you.
E-commerce that sells
Online stores designed around how your customers buy and how your team fulfils. Whether that's Shopify, BigCommerce, or a custom platform, chosen for what fits, not what's easiest.
Talks to the rest of your business
Your website connected to your CRM, your booking system, your accounting, your email, so data flows automatically and nobody's re-typing it three times.
Design that works for your customers, not for design awards.
Planning the experience
We start by studying the best user experience for your business: what your customers need, where they'll click, what makes them act. The design follows from that.
How it looks
A site that looks and feels true to your brand. Modern, clean and complete with the kind of attention to detail your customers will appreciate.
Driving action
Every page is designed with a purpose: to get your visitors to enquire, to buy, or to learn more about your business.
Websites need looking after. Security updates, performance checks, malware protection, content changes. We handle it so you don't have to chase a developer every time something needs attention. Regular maintenance is what keeps a five-year website going well beyond five years.
Maintain your site with RAVENCIPlease note: As of October, 2024, we no longer host websites that are not signed up to reliable ongoing maintenance. This does not have to be through RAVENCI, but it must be from a reputable provider.
Where your website lives matters. Good hosting means your site loads fast, stays secure, and ranks better on search engines. We host all of our clients on scalable cloud servers located closest to their customers, so your site performs well no matter where your visitors are.

Platforms we build on
We're not platform purists. After 25 years in the industry, we've learned that the best platform is the one that fits your goals, your team, and your budget, then gets built well. We also build on BigCommerce, Strapi, Plasmic and Astro when the project calls for them.

“Richard is the absolute best at what he does. Our brand new startup is launching with the best possible website I could have imagined. He took the time from the very beginning to understand us and our business, and he has made our branding and website reflect that and represent us perfectly.”
After 25 years building websites for Australian businesses, I've learned that the easy part is launch day. The hard part is the next five years.
Most sites look great at launch and quietly fall apart after. Plugins clash, subscriptions stack up, the developer who built it stops returning calls. That's not how we work. We build it right the first time so you can stop thinking about it.
We work with businesses across different industries, and the best part is watching what they go on to achieve with the platforms we build for them.
Most agencies build websites to launch. We build them to last. Here's how we stack up against the typical drag-and-drop crowd and the DIY builders.
