Web Design Sydney

Most of our web development projects are built using WordPress, Shopify, Magento, and custom CMS solutions. However, this depends on the specific requirements and considerations of each project. We always choose common, secure and highly functional platforms to bring our project to life.

Yes, Designpluz specialises in designing and developing websites that are 100% customised based on your specific needs. Custom websites are our primary focus and service offering in Sydney, while our other services act as a pathway to success in terms of digital marketing, branding consistency & collateral and software development for business automation and productivity processes. We avoid doing anything that is template / off the shelf.

Website Design and Web Development are two distinct and co-dependent components of high-quality websites, with the UI/UX phase starting first before development following thereafter. While design is focused on establishing a look, feel (UI) and user experience (UX) that adheres to business requirements and brand guidelines, web development involves the functional implementation and integrations.

No. In most cases, our newly launched websites actually organically improve our clients’ ranking due to their adherence to SEO best practices like fast load times, readability, engagement and more. We engage our SEO team to analyse and work closely with our developers to ensure a seamless translation of Search Engine Rankings from one website to another, while also identifying areas of improvement. We believe that the full ecosystem of quality website design and development involves considerations from all aspects, including digital marketing, branding, process automation and integrations as well as SEO.

Yes, Designpluz is specialised and experienced in developing complicated and large-scale e-commerce websites on different platforms such as WooCommerce and Shopify. We implement extensive features, creating robust, sales focused online stores that can handle a high volume of products and transactions. Our eCommerce projects are developed from the perspective of customer experience while improving automation and efficiency for businesses.

Template based websites are pre-designed and are reused over and over again for different organisations. They are often updated in terms of colours, text and imagery but lack uniqueness and aren’t purpose designed for that specific business. Custom websites, on the other hand, follow a more thoughtful UI/UX process which starts from the ground up, considering audiences, brand guides, what information should be included, benchmark references, competitors, user experience and more to create an authentic outcome which is unlike any existing website. We only develop custom websites which are created specifically for your business after our workshop, no two websites we develop are the same.

Yes, we can. However, it is dependent on the platform used. If it’s in WordPress, Drupal and other leading open source platforms, we will be more than happy to rescue or redesign your project. We have rescued various projects in various stages in the past. Please contact us to discuss further.

Designing and developing a custom website is a significant investment due to the extensive hours required for each phase, including the initial workshop, prototype design (wireframing), UI/UX design, web development, and testing. As a general guide, the average cost of custom web design and development in Sydney ranges from $8,000 to $50,000. Boutique web design agencies tend to fall at the lower end of this range, while larger agencies are typically at the higher end. The cost will depend on the number of pages, how much UI/UX is required, website platform, SEO data transfer, CRM integrations, website hosting and other complex functionalities used on the website.

Designpluz is a small boutique website design company, hence our price is always on the lower end of the range. We customise each of our proposals to provide the best solution and to also give clients options that fit their budgets. We suggest booking a meeting with us to discuss your project in further detail so that we can provide you with a tailored proposal suited to your specific requirements.

We can certainly help you with content writing if that is required through engagement with our content writing partners, although if your business has the capacity to write content for the website, we often suggest that this is the best approach as it allows you to demonstrate your experience and expertise while portraying your business exactly as you intend. Regardless of the copy you write, good web agencies in Sydney will craft a design which is purposeful based on your content.

Yes, we do and we strongly suggest that all of our clients leverage this service for a number of reasons including peace of mind, continual maintenance & software updates (including security checks), fast hosting with SSL certificates and backups while also maintaining design integrity (we’ll make updates to your website ourselves based on the tasks you email us so that the site remains beautiful after launch).

We have different options for this type of service and we’ll discuss this with you during our workshop and also after the website is live. We are here to support our customers into the future on a long-term basis. In saying this, we also provide PDF guides which instruct our clients to make updates to their websites themselves in the case that you don’t want to rely on us for updates (although we are very quick), such as uploading new blogs.
