Brisbane & Queensland
See your new website working, before you pay for it.
Most web designers ask for a deposit before you've built anything real. I build you a free working concept first. If you like it, we agree a fixed price and timeline and get started. If you don't, you've lost nothing.
Dealing with me directly, backed by a small, hands-on team.
I'm Aaron Knight, a web designer and developer with over 13 years of experience building custom websites for Australian businesses. You'll be dealing with me directly, backed by a small, hands-on team, delivering professional web design services & digital marketing strategy for Brisbane businesses: custom builds that are fast, SEO-ready, and designed to convert visitors into customers. If it's useful, we can also talk through how the website fits into your wider digital marketing, including social media marketing.
A mobile vehicle repair business came to me wanting more leads without spending more to get them. Here's what 12 months of combining the website, SEO, and ad targeting properly did:
That's what happens when your website, your SEO, and your ads are built in one place, by people who understand how all three connect, not three different vendors who've never spoken to each other.
Most people get three quotes and a pile of promises. You get a working draft of your actual site, then a fixed price and a fixed timeline.
From the first conversation to the final handover, I'm your point of contact. The small team behind me handles the depth a project needs, without you ever losing that direct line.
The free working concept means you're judging a real draft of your actual site, not a mood board or a sales pitch.
Once we agree a price and a start date, the only thing that moves it is feedback taking longer than 48 hours on your end.
Brisbane is one of Australia's fastest-growing business markets. From the CBD and South Bank to Fortitude Valley, Newstead, and the inner suburbs, businesses across every industry are competing for the same customers online. First impressions matter here: a professional, well-structured website is often the difference between a potential customer finding you online and moving straight to a competitor instead.
Design, build, search and ads handled together, so every page is built with the next enquiry in mind.
Every website I build is designed from scratch around your brand, your customers, and your goals. Brisbane's market is sophisticated and competitive, and a generic template won't differentiate you. Custom website design gives you a platform that reflects your brand accurately, stands out from competitors, and is built to perform.
Most of my websites are built on WordPress: a flexible, powerful platform that's easy to manage once the site is live. You own the site outright at handover, with all accounts, all content, and all code. I also provide website training so you can confidently manage your content without relying on a developer for every update.
Every website I build is SEO-ready from day one: clean code, fast load speeds, proper site structure, and keyword targeting relevant to the Brisbane and broader QLD market. Getting found by local customers starts during the build, not as an afterthought once the site is live.
For Brisbane businesses looking to generate leads quickly, I build and manage Google Ads campaigns. Search-only, tightly targeted, with conversion tracking in place so you know exactly what your spend is returning.
From AI chatbots and automated customer service to workflow automation and platform integration, I help Brisbane businesses use AI practically, saving time, improving customer experience, and building smarter processes around their existing tools. Whether you're a small to medium business just getting started or looking to expand what you're already using, I offer consulting to identify where AI will deliver real value for your business specifically.
For Brisbane businesses looking to sell products online, I build ecommerce websites on Shopify and WooCommerce. Mobile-first, conversion-optimised, and structured to rank in search. Whether you're launching a new online store or refreshing an existing one, I'll build a platform that's ready to sell.
Every project includes 30 days of post-launch support as standard. Ongoing support packages cover website maintenance, security updates, plugin updates, performance monitoring, and regular backups.
A well-built website does more than look good.
Here's what I focus on for every Brisbane web design project:
Upfront cost isn't everything. A website that's cheap to build but expensive to maintain will cost you more in the long run. Every site I build uses clean, well-structured code on a reliable platform, so ongoing maintenance costs stay predictable rather than compounding over time.
Your website should be able to change when your business does. Whether you're refreshing your brand, adding a new service, or running a seasonal campaign, the sites I build are designed to be updated and adapted without starting from scratch, keeping your brand visibility current as your business evolves.
Businesses evolve. Brisbane's growth trajectory means many businesses here are expanding quickly: into new markets, new services, and higher traffic volumes. Every site I build is architected around your business goals and your broader digital strategy, so it grows with you rather than needing a rebuild.
More than 70% of Australian web traffic comes from mobile devices. A site that isn't designed mobile-first is losing potential customers before they've had a chance to engage. Every website I build starts with the mobile experience and scales up to desktop, not the other way around. That means fluid layouts and flexible images across every screen size, which matters for usability and because Google uses mobile-first indexing when determining search rankings.
A beautiful site that doesn't convert is just an expensive brochure. Every design decision I make is guided by how real Brisbane customers actually behave online: clear navigation, logical page structure, strong calls to action, and fast load times that keep visitors engaged rather than bouncing. Getting web design and web development working together properly, built around your target audience, is what actually moves the needle on conversions, not one polished page in isolation. The goal throughout is a site that helps your ideal customers find you and take action, whether you're a small business or a growing team.
I've built websites and run campaigns for businesses including Eden Brae Homes, Champion Homes, Deicorp, NSW Government, and Macquarie University, alongside 13+ years working with businesses across Australia and overseas.

Artificial intelligence is no longer a tool reserved for large enterprises. Businesses of all sizes are now using AI to automate repetitive tasks, improve customer experience, and make better decisions with the data they already have. For Brisbane businesses looking to stay competitive in one of Australia's fastest-growing markets, AI integration is becoming as foundational as having a website in the first place.
I offer AI development and integration services designed for small and medium-sized businesses: practical, results-focused implementations that solve real problems rather than technology for its own sake.
A well-built AI chatbot handles routine customer enquiries around the clock: answering common questions, qualifying leads, booking appointments, and routing complex queries to the right person. For Brisbane businesses that receive high volumes of repetitive enquiries, this frees up significant time while improving response times for customers. I design and build chatbots that are trained on your business, your services, and your customer language, not generic out-of-the-box tools that feel impersonal.
Manual, repetitive processes are one of the biggest drains on time in any small business. I build AI-powered automation tools that connect your existing platforms (your website, CRM, email marketing, and booking systems) and handle routine tasks automatically. From lead follow-up sequences and content generation workflows to data processing and reporting, the right automation can give you hours back every week.
Not sure where AI fits in your business, or whether it's worth investing in? I offer consulting for Brisbane businesses at the early stages of exploring AI: helping you identify where automation and AI tools will deliver real value, which platforms and approaches make sense for your size and budget, and how to implement them without disrupting what's already working. The goal is always practical ROI, not complexity for its own sake.
AI tools work best when they're built on a solid digital foundation: a fast, well-structured website, clean data, and clear business processes. I take an integrated approach. The websites I build are designed from the start to support AI and automation layers where they make sense, so you're not trying to retrofit new tools onto a poorly built platform.
You work with me throughout the entire project. No account managers, no handoffs to junior developers. I lead the strategy, design, and build, with a small, hands-on team supporting the depth a larger project needs.
Most projects fall in the $4,000 to $25,000 range. You'll receive a clear, itemised quote before any work begins, with no estimates that inflate once you're committed.
When the site is handed over, you own it outright: the WordPress installation, all accounts, all content and code. Domain and code ownership are clarified upfront, so there's no ambiguity about what's yours once the project is complete.
The project is yours. If you have a specific design direction, a particular feature in mind, or want access to the source code at handover, that's all standard.
Keyword research, SEO setup, Google Analytics, and Search Console are included with every project, so your site is structured to rank from day one.
Every website is cross-browser and cross-device tested using Browserstack before launch, so it performs correctly for Brisbane customers regardless of the device they're using.
30 days of post-launch support comes standard. Ongoing maintenance plans are available for businesses that want their site actively managed long-term.
Seven steps from first conversation to a site you can run yourself. The free concept sits right at the start, so you see the direction before you commit.
Understanding your business, your customers, and your goals before any design work begins.
Agreeing on scope, sitemap, timeline, and platform.
Creating layouts and visual designs that reflect your brand and prioritise usability and conversion.
Building the site, integrating required tools, and optimising for performance and SEO.
Cross-browser and cross-device testing before anything goes live.
Going live with Google Analytics and Search Console connected from day one.
30 days of post-launch support included as standard.
I work across a range of platforms and technologies, recommending the right solution for each project:
Brisbane's economy is one of the most diverse and fast-growing in Australia. I've built websites for businesses across:
A standard business website typically takes four to six weeks from briefing to launch. Larger or more complex projects (ecommerce builds or sites with custom integrations) take longer. Timeline is agreed upfront and I won't commit to a deadline I can't deliver on. Having your content ready at the start of the project is the biggest factor in keeping things on schedule.
I build a real, working draft of your website before you pay anything. If you like it, we agree a fixed price and timeline and get started. If you don't, there's no obligation at all.
Most projects fall in the $4,000 to $25,000 range depending on size and complexity. A straightforward business website sits toward the lower end. Ecommerce builds or sites with custom functionality sit higher. I'll give you a clear, honest quote after an initial conversation, with no ballpark figures that change once you're committed.
Look for a designer with a strong portfolio of completed work, transparent pricing, and a defined process. Ask to see examples relevant to your industry. Pay attention to how they communicate during the initial conversation, and whether they can clearly explain how their work supports SEO and website traffic over time. Responsiveness and clarity at that stage is a reliable indicator of how the project itself will run.
Get in touch via phone or the enquiry form. I'll ask you some questions about your business, your goals, and what you're looking for. From there I'll put together a clear scope and quote, with no commitment required to have that initial conversation. Once we agree on scope and timeline, the project kicks off with a discovery session before any design work begins.
For many businesses, yes, particularly in Brisbane's fast-growing technology, professional services, and hospitality sectors where customer enquiries, follow-up sequences, and administrative tasks can consume significant time. The key is identifying where AI delivers genuine value rather than adding complexity. I offer an initial consulting conversation for Brisbane businesses curious about AI to work through exactly that question before any commitment is made.
Yes, and it's no longer optional. Responsive design, where a site adapts cleanly to any screen size, is the baseline expectation for any professional website. With most Australian traffic now coming from mobile devices, and Google using mobile-first indexing to determine rankings, a site that isn't properly responsive is at a real disadvantage before it even launches.
Yes, more than ever. As more purchasing decisions start with an online search, businesses without a fast, professional website are increasingly invisible to the customers actively looking for them.
Every project starts with a 50% deposit and a set number of included revisions. You don't pay the final balance until you're genuinely happy with it. I keep working with you until we get there.
