Custom Website Design FAQ
What is a custom website?
A custom website is uniquely designed for you without using a template. Our team will include skilled developers and a graphic designer who will collaborate to deliver your site. It means increased flexibility and functionality as we create each element to suit your needs, with a design tailored to reflect your brand and connect with your audience.
How much does a custom web design cost?
Our custom web designs start at $12,000 + GST. The cost depends on factors like the size of your website, desired features and functionalities, and the level of customisation required. Some clients also request custom web applications, such as inventory systems, CMS platforms, or ticket booking systems, which we factor into the final cost. Contact us, and we will write a detailed proposal based on your budget and website needs.
How much time does it take to build a custom website?
We generally build custom websites in four (4) to ten (10) weeks. Our timeframe depends on several factors, such as our current workload, how quickly you can deliver your website assets to us, and the speed of your feedback on drafts.
