Web Design for Small Business
Static websites for Australian small businesses. No subscriptions, no bloat, no overseas outsourcing. One flat fee, a site you own, and ongoing costs that won’t eat your margins.
Start a ConversationThe Problem
Most small businesses end up on WordPress, Squarespace or Wix because they seemed like the only option. But the costs stack up — monthly hosting fees, plugin charges, theme renewals, security patches, and when something breaks you’re on your own with a chatbot.
A WordPress site typically costs $300–400 AUD per year in hosting, domain and theme fees. Squarespace and Wix start around $204 AUD per year. That’s money going to platforms, not your business.
Here’s the thing: AI has changed everything. These bloated platforms are now redundant for most small businesses. I bridge the gap — combining the latest AI technology with technical expertise to build you a fast, secure website that costs almost nothing to run. No middleman. No monthly fees. Just a site that works.
WordPress costs based on typical small business hosting ($10–25/mo), domain ($15–20/yr) and theme renewals. Squarespace and Wix based on cheapest annual plans in AUD as of early 2026. Monthly billing is significantly more.

How It Works
Tell me about your business, what you need from your website, and what isn’t working right now. No jargon, no sales pitch — just a conversation.
I create a custom static website tailored to your business. You’ll see a draft within days and we refine it together until you’re happy.
Once you’re satisfied with the design, content and functionality, I deploy it live. You get the files, the domain, the lot.
No lock-in contracts. No monthly subscriptions. Your site lives on free hosting and the only ongoing cost is your domain name — about $15 a year. Need changes down the track? I’m a message away.
About
I’m Drew — based in Sunbury, Victoria. I build websites for small businesses that want something clean, fast and affordable without the ongoing platform fees.
Every site I build is handcoded HTML and CSS. No templates, no drag-and-drop builders, no WordPress plugins to break. This matters more than most people realise:
Speed. Static HTML loads instantly — no database queries, no server-side processing. Your customers see your site in under a second, not three. Google rewards fast sites with better search rankings.
Security. No WordPress means no plugin vulnerabilities, no hacks, no malware. There’s nothing to exploit. Your site is just files on a server — bulletproof by design.
Ownership. You own the code outright. No platform lock-in, no monthly subscriptions, no price increases. If you want to move hosts or make changes yourself, you can. Try doing that with Squarespace.
Longevity. HTML doesn’t go out of date. Sites I build today will work exactly the same in ten years. No forced migrations, no “upgrade to our new plan” emails, no features disappearing.
I work directly with you — there’s no team, no account manager. When you message me, you’re talking to the person who built your site. Australian owned and operated. Not outsourced overseas.
