Small-business websites · sorted

A proper website for your business — built and looked after for you.

No fiddly DIY builders that quietly eat your weekend. No agency invoice with a heart-stopping number on the bottom. Just a tailored site that’s designed around your business, hosted and looked after — for one flat monthly bill.

Your domain and accounts are in your name — always.

Four steps. You do one of them.

No tech-speak, no homework, no half-built site quietly judging you from a browser tab. Here’s the whole thing, start to finish — and exactly who does what.

Your bit

Tell us about your business

A quick, friendly chat — what you do, who you do it for, and what makes you the one to call. No jargon, no forms full of tech questions.

About 15 minutes · phone or email, your call
We've got it

We design and build it

We take it from here — the layout, the words, the photos, the lot — designed around your services, your area and your customers. Not a template with your logo dropped on top.

First look ready in [X days — TO CONFIRM]
Your call

You review and approve

Have a proper look and tell us what to change — wording, colours, photos, whatever's not quite you. We tweak it until it feels right. Nothing goes live until you say so.

As many rounds as it takes to be happy
We've got it

We host it and look after it

Once you're happy, it goes live — and we keep it that way. Hosting, backups, security and your everyday changes, all handled. One bill, and a real person on the other end.

Ongoing · one bill, one person to call

Your total effort: one chat and one thumbs-up.We’ll quietly handle the other three-and-a-bit steps — no logins to learn, no dashboard to babysit.

Hang on — how is it this affordable?

Fair question, and the answer isn’t “cut corners.” It’s that we’ve automated the expensive part. The slow, costly bit of an agency build — weeks of hand-coding, layers of project managers, billable hours piling up — we do with modern AI tools and systems we’ve built ourselves.

Behind them: technologists with decades of combined experience across ecommerce, enterprise technology, news media and commercial digital — people who’ve built for big brands and know exactly what good looks like. The machines do the heavy lifting. Humans make the calls.

That frees our actual time for the things no tool can do: understanding your business, getting the design right, and making sure your site actually brings customers in.

Where our effort goes
  • Your customers' experience
  • Design that fits your business
  • Getting you found
What’s automated
The plumbing.

The slow, repetitive build work that used to eat weeks and rack up hours — handled by our tools, not your wallet.

No bloated agency overheads, no wasted hours — and none of it on your bill.

The whole job, handled — not handed back to you.

Everything you’d want from a good website — minus the bits nobody warned you about, and the three follow-up invoices.

Fully managed

Design, build, hosting and upkeep — all under one roof. One relationship, one bill, zero faffing about.

One bill, one inbox, one less headache

Designed around your business

Built to fit what you actually do — your services, your area, your customers. Not a template with your logo dropped on top.

Looks like you — not a template

Hosting that just works

Fast, secure and backed up — sorted by us. You'll never get a “your site is down” text on a Saturday.

We get the 2am alert, not you

Changes included

New phone number, fresh photos, updated prices? Send them over — the everyday stuff is part of the deal.

Email it over, consider it done

No surprise bills

One predictable monthly fee. No billable hours, no “scope creep”, no invoice that arrives three times bigger than the quote.

Same number, every single month

One person to call

A real relationship, not a ticket queue. You talk to us in plain English and it gets done.

A name, not a ticket number
Three ways to get a website

Two of them end with you doing the hard part.

DIY buildersCheap, sort of
  • A “free weekend” that turns into six.
  • Hosting, updates and fixes — all on you.
  • Looks like the same template as everyone else.

// You're the web team now.

AgenciesPricey
  • A big upfront quote, then the clock on every email.
  • Surprise invoices and slow turnarounds.
  • Often built on their accounts, not yours.

// Billed by the hour, felt in the gut.

DSKOne monthly fee
  • Designed around your business, built for you — no weekends lost.
  • Hosting, updates and the tech stay with us — for good.
  • One flat fee, everything in your name.

// You get back to running your business.

From the ute to the clinic — websites for the businesses that keep the lights on.

Your website is yours. Full stop.

Most agencies build your site on their domain, in theiraccounts — so the day you want to leave, you find out you can’t take it with you. We do the opposite. Everything is set up in your name from day one, so there’s nothing to hold over you.

Your domain

Registered to you and renewed in your name — not parked in ours. The address your customers type is yours.

Your accounts

Hosting, email and the logins behind your site are set up under your details, with you as the owner.

Your content

The words, the photos, the design — yours to keep. No “we built it, so we own it” small print.

Your call to leave

Change your mind down the track? We hand everything over cleanly — no ransom, no “export fee”, no awkward chat.

No hostage situationsWe’d rather keep you because you’re happy — not because you’re stuck.

One monthly bill, everything handled.No billable hours, no surprise invoices — and the setup fee’s always shown up front, never hidden.

Changes includedEveryday tweaks — text, prices, photos, a new contact number — are part of your monthly fee. Bigger pieces of work (new sections, extra products, custom features) are quoted separately first, so there are no surprises. Exact definition: [definition TO CONFIRM].

The own-it-outright option

Prefer to own the code outright?

We’ll build it, hand over the repo, and you take it from there. The catch: hosting and changes become yours to manage — so most businesses stick with a managed plan and let us handle the lot.

Want to be one of the first names on this page?

We’re taking on a small group of businesses for the pilot. Get in early, get properly looked after, and help shape how this works — your site could be the first bit of proof we show right here.

The questions we actually get asked.

No on-call promises we can’t keep — just honest expectations, set up front.

Still got a question?

If it’s not answered here, just ask — pop it in your demo brief and we’ll give you a straight answer with your demo.

Send us what you need changed — a new number, fresh photos, updated prices — and we’ll take care of it. Everyday updates usually land within [X business days — TO CONFIRM]. We’re not a 24/7 concierge, and we won’t pretend to be; we’re just reliable and straight with you about timing.
Your monthly fee covers managed hosting, SSL, ongoing updates and minor changes. Bigger pieces of work — say a whole new section, or extra products beyond your plan — we’ll scope and quote up front so there are no surprises. The exact line between the two is here: [TO CONFIRM].
You do. Your domain and accounts are registered in your name from the start — not held in ours. It’s your business and your front door; we just look after it for you.
You take your site and domain with you — no ransom, no “export fee”, no hard feelings. Because everything’s already in your name, leaving is just a handover, not a hostage negotiation. Plans run on a 12-month minimum term, spelled out plainly up front — no mystery lock-ins.
Not even a little. You tell us about your business in plain English, we handle every technical part, and you approve the result. If you can send a text message, you can do your bit.
No worries — we can work with what you’ve got. If you already own a domain, it stays yours and we point your new site at it. If there’s an existing website, we’ll keep what’s worth keeping and tidy up the rest. You won’t lose your address or your email.
It just means you’re signing on for your first year — that’s the window we build, launch and look after your site across. After the 12 months you carry on month-to-month; there’s no auto-locking you into another year. We spell the term out plainly up front because it’s part of the deal, not something to bury in the fine print.
Three managed plans, all +GST with the inc. figure shown too: Presence $79/mo + GST ($86.90 inc.) plus a $490 + GST ($539 inc.) one-time setup; Shop $149/mo + GST ($163.90 inc.) plus $690 + GST ($759 inc.) setup; and Shopify Managed $199/mo + GST ($218.90 inc.) plus $990 + GST ($1,089 inc.) setup. Every plan runs on a 12-month minimum term, and the setup fee is always shown up front — never hidden. (On Shopify Managed, your Shopify subscription is paid separately, directly to Shopify.) Prefer to own the code outright? You can buy a build from $1,990 + GST instead.

A website you’ll be proud of — without the agency drama.

Two ways in, depending on where you’re at. Both go to a real person — pick the door that suits you.
