What you get

High performance website with Google in mind

Fast loading pages, mobile responsive design, clean technical foundations and proper SEO structure to help search engines understand and rank your site.

Clear messaging that helps visitors become customers

Your website is structured around your services and audience so visitors quickly understand what you offer and how to work with you.

Zero to low running costs

Modern static architecture means your site can run on inexpensive hosting without the maintenance overhead of traditional platforms like WordPress.

Full ownership and no platform lock-in

You receive the complete website and source code, giving you the freedom to host it anywhere and work with any developer in the future.

Compounding digital asset

Unlike paid ads that stop when the budget stops, a well-built website continues attracting visitors and generating leads over time.

Built to grow with your business

The structure allows new pages, services, and content to be added easily as your business evolves.

How it works

A simple four-step process from choosing your package through to launch and long-term ownership.

  1. 1

    Choose your package

    Select the package that fits your business and secure your project slot. Clear scope and fixed pricing means you know exactly what you are getting before work begins.

  2. 2

    Clarify your goals

    We define the audience, messaging, and structure of the website so it communicates your services clearly. This ensures the site supports your business rather than just looking good.

  3. 3

    Design and build

    Your website is designed and built with performance, clarity, and maintainability in mind. You can review progress and provide feedback before launch.

  4. 4

    Launch and take ownership

    Once approved, your site goes live and you receive full ownership of the website and code. No subscriptions, no lock-in, and no ongoing dependency.

Owen - ACJ Creative

Who's behind this

I'm Owen, a Perth-based developer with over ten years of professional experience.

As well as ACJ Creative, I run ACJ Tech, a software consulting business providing technical leadership services. I also founded Quivva, an application for independent consultants and professionals who handle recurring client work.

Building businesses - my own and others' - gave me a genuine interest in marketing and what actually makes a website work. I care about whether a site converts and contributes to the business.

ACJ Creative is where that interest lands. The technical foundations are solid because that's my background. The focus on clarity and structure is because I've been on the business owner side too.

Our work

Real sites built for real clients. Not here to impress you visually — here to show you what's under the hood.

Packages

A two-stage foundation gets you online and growing; Stage 3 adds custom elements to suit your business. Start small and add capability as you grow.

Stage 1: Launch

Stage 1 gets you live fast with a launch-ready landing page and contact, plus your domain and hosting included.

For some solopreneurs and small businesses, this is enough to generate revenue online and provide a solid web presence.

For other businesses, it gives a strong foundation to build on.

Launch

$2,200

  • Landing page
  • Contact
  • Live domain
  • Free hosting

Stage 2: Growth

Stage 2 builds on your launch by adding the pages and social proof that help visitors choose you: services, about, testimonials, plus Google Business and social profiles audits.

For many small businesses, this is the complete package. An effective system to generate leads and build your online presence.

Growth

$2,200

  • Services page

Stage 3: Authority (pick & mix)

Add the modules that fit your business. Each is a separate, well-scoped addition.

Ongoing Maintenance

Site Management

$99 /month

The monthly fee is a retainer for keeping your site running smoothly: content updates, issue response, and small changes as your business evolves. No lock-in. You own the site and can move or self-host anytime.

Self-host

~$30 /year

Your ongoing cost is domain registration only - around $30 per year for most domains. We'll walk you through the transfer and hosting setup. Best suited to those comfortable managing their own web hosting.

Common questions

Straight answers to the things people usually ask before getting started.

  • Can I start with Stage 1 and add Stage 2 later?

    Yes! That's exactly how it's designed. Each stage builds on the last, so you can start small and expand as your business grows or as budget allows.

  • What does 'free hosting' actually mean?

    The site is built with Astro, a modern static framework, which can be hosted on platforms like Cloudflare Pages or Netlify at no cost. There's no monthly hosting fee and no server to maintain. You own the code and can host it anywhere.

  • Is the hosting fast?

    Yes. The site is delivered as static files from a CDN — meaning pages are served from servers close to your visitor, with no database queries or server-side processing on each request. Load times are very fast and Core Web Vitals scores are strong, both of which Google uses as ranking signals.

    The contrast with WordPress is significant. A WordPress site renders pages dynamically on every visit, requiring a database and application server that typically costs $20–50+ per month to run reliably at reasonable speed. Static hosting sidesteps all of that — faster by default, cheaper to run, and nothing to maintain.

  • What if I need something that isn't in the packages?

    The Stage 3 modules cover the most common additions. If you have something specific in mind that doesn't fit neatly into any module, get in touch and we can scope it out honestly — fixed price where the scope is clear, or a range where it isn't.

  • How long does a project take?

    Stage 1 typically takes two to three weeks from kickoff to launch. Stage 2 adds another two to three weeks on top. Timelines depend on how quickly you can provide content and feedback.

  • What do you need from me to get started?

    After you choose a package, we'll have a short call to clarify your goals, audience, and messaging. From there, you'll need to supply your logo, photos, and any existing copy. We can help shape the copy if needed.

Pick a package, send a message, and we'll lock in a start date. No lengthy discovery process — just a clear scope and a fixed price.
