From the Blog
Frequently asked questions about our web design services and capabilities.
What is the difference between AI Search and SEO?
The goal of SEO is to get a high ranking in Google. AI search optimisation makes sure that your site shows up in AI-powered answers like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. Both are important in 2025.
When will I likely see results?
You can see basic SEO improvements in a few weeks. It usually takes three to six months to get better results, like page-one rankings. But it really depends on how aggressively you want to implement changes and how much freedom you give me to make the optimisations I recommend implementing.
How flexible are your prices and payments?
I take deposits and payments in stages.
What does your web design package include?
All packages include design, content (copy & images), SEO setup, and training. The first year includes hosting, a .com or .com.au domain name, email, and a premium licence of the best premium WordPress plugins to ensure reliable backups, security, speed, and premium SEO, plus what I and 1000's of web designers believe is the fastest, most user-friendly page builder on the planet.
Do you offer help after the launch?
Yes, with our complimentary 1st-year Care Plan, all standard packages include at least 2 hours of support that you can choose to use for any website, IT, or marketing-related support or help you need. You will always have full admin access and the option to run it in-house or engage a third-party provider if you want to.
