Small Business Website Package in Melbourne
A small business website package, designed, built and managed for you. Melbourne-based, working Australia-wide. $0 upfront. $150 a month covers everything.
You get a website that makes you look professional. So customers take you seriously. No thousands up front.
Why managed websites are the affordable choice
Managed web design is for owners who know they need a good website, but don't want the work of running one.
- No headaches. Hosting, updates and security are handled. You never touch a dashboard.
- Predictable. One flat monthly fee. You know exactly what you pay.
- Edits done for you. Need a price changed or a new photo? Send a message. It's done.
- One person to call. No agencies, no hold music, no chasing. Just me, Leslie.
What's included in your small business website package?
- A custom-designed website. Built for your business, not a template.
- Mobile-friendly and fast. Built on solid SEO foundations. So Google can find you, and so can your customers.
- 5 pages as standard. Need more? $150 one-off per page after that.
- Unlimited edits, done for you. Send a message. It's done.
- Contact form. So customers can reach you.
- Hosting, maintenance and support. All handled. You never touch a thing.
Who this package isn't for
This package isn't for everyone.
- Need an online store? I don't do e-commerce.
- After an SEO campaign to climb Google's rankings? That's a specialist job. Your site is built on solid SEO foundations, but ongoing SEO isn't something I do.
If you're a small business that needs a professional website, handled for you, at a price you can budget for, that's exactly what this is.
How much does a small business website cost in Melbourne?
Most web designers in Melbourne charge a big fee up front. A one-off small business website runs from about $1,500 to $5,000 or more, before hosting, updates and support. This managed package works differently:
- $0 upfront. No big cheque before you've even started.
- $150 a month, flat. Covers design, build, hosting, maintenance and edits. A genuinely affordable website package for a small business.
- $1,800 over the 12-month minimum. About the same as a basic one-off build. But every edit and all the upkeep are included.
After the first year, your site is paid off and it's yours. So what's the $150 for after that? Everything staying handled. Hosting, security, updates, and edits whenever you need them.
For most small businesses, one new customer from the site covers months of the fee. So it pays for itself.
Managed vs One-off vs DIY: which is really affordable?
"Cheap" and "affordable" aren't the same thing. The cheapest option often costs you more later, in time, stress and patch-up jobs. Here's how managed web design compares.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Upfront cost | $0 | $2,000-$5,000+ | $1,000-$3,000 | Low, plus your time |
| Ongoing cost | $150 flat, all in | Hosting & upkeep extra | Usually on your own | $20-$50/m + your time |
| Who builds it | Me, done for you | An agency team | One freelancer | You do |
| Updates & edits | Unlimited, done for you | Charged per change | Usually charged hourly | You, yourself |
| Hosting & maintenance | Included | Often extra | Rarely included | Your problem |
| Support | One person to call | A support queue | Hit and miss | None |
| Time to launch | 2-3 weeks | 6-12 weeks | Varies | Evenings & weekends |

What clients say
★★★★★Leslie made the whole process really easy for me. We had a chat to discuss what I wanted, and the rest was taken care of. The site looks professional and makes it easy for people to see my cakes and get in touch with me. I've also started getting enquiries through the order form which has been awesome. If ever I need something changed, or photos uploaded, I just drop them in the Google drive and it gets sorted. No other involvement from me required.
