SEO
SEO website design for Australian businesses that want a new site Google can read from day one: pages planned around what customers search.
SEO web design
Rock Solid Marketing designs websites for Australian businesses with SEO built into the plan, from our office in Mildura. Your pages, their addresses and their headings are worked out from what your customers type into Google, before anyone picks a colour or a font.
You might be replacing a site that never brought in a single enquiry. Or a designer has sent a lovely mock-up and nobody has asked which search each page should win. Fixing that after launch costs more than getting it right in the sitemap. You get a site where every service has its own page and a clear job.
Website packages start from $5,000 + GST, and every project starts with a free 30-minute discovery call.

Built in, not bolted on
Each of these is decided while the site is being planned, when getting it right costs nothing extra.
One page about everything ranks for nothing. Each of your services gets its own page aimed at the words your buyers use, so Google knows which page to show for which search.
Short, readable addresses such as /roof-repairs/ and a menu that keeps key pages two clicks from home. Settling these before launch saves you a pile of redirects later.
Google's Search Central guide says it indexes the mobile version of your site. So layouts, buttons and menus are checked on a phone before the desktop view is signed off.
One H1 per page, then H2s that follow the questions people ask. Visitors can scan the page, and search engines can tell what each section covers.
Image sizes, fonts and plug-ins are picked with load time in mind. A slow page loses people on a patchy country connection long before they reach your offer.
Google Analytics and Search Console are connected before launch. From week one you can see which pages bring visits and enquiries, and which ones Google hasn't indexed yet.

Rachel EhratCreator Of All Things Amazing!TasmaniaHow it works
Search research first, design second, tracking from the day the site goes live.
A free 30-minute call about your business, the services you want to be found for and the site you have now.
We research your customers' searches and turn them into a page list and sitemap that you approve before design.
Your site is designed and built around that plan, with rounds of feedback from you before anything goes live.
Search Console and Analytics are connected at launch, so you can see which pages bring visits and enquiries.
How it starts
Before the first wireframe, we research what your customers search, using Semrush and, if you already have a site, your Google Search Console data. We group those searches by what the person wants and give each group one page. That list becomes the sitemap your designer works from.
Then the design follows the plan, so headings, copy and internal links already have a job. If a 5-page Essentials site will do the job, we'll tell you before we quote.
Plan the pages for search, then design them for people.
What you get
The website is priced by package. The SEO groundwork (keyword research, sitemap, titles and set-up) runs inside an SEO plan from $1,000 + GST a month. Or we quote it at $175 + GST an hour.

SEO website design is building a site so search engines can find, read and rank it, as well as people. It covers the page list, URLs, headings, speed, mobile layout and internal links. Whether you call it SEO web design or SEO webdesign, an SEO web designer settles those before the visual design, not after the site is finished.
Start with what your customers search, then give each important search its own page. Keep URLs short, use one H1 per page and write a unique title tag for each. Make every page quick on a phone. Then connect Google Search Console, so you can see which pages Google has indexed and fix the ones it skipped.
Design the structure before the look. Keep every key page within two clicks of the home page and give each service a page rather than a tab. Keep words as real text, not inside images. Lay it out for the phone first, because that's the version Google indexes. Good SEO friendly web design looks simple because the hard calls were made early.
Audit what you have before redesigning anything. A Semrush crawl and Search Console's reports show missing titles, duplicate pages, slow templates and pages Google left out. Many fixes, such as headings, titles and internal links, fit into your current design. If the theme itself is the problem, a rebuild can cost less than patching, and we'll show you both options.
Use a simple tree: the home page, then one page per service or product group, then supporting pages and articles beneath them. Each page targets one main search, and related pages link to each other. Breadcrumbs and a short menu show visitors and Google how it all fits. We draw this as a sitemap you approve before design starts.
Fix the basics in order. Make sure Google can index your key pages, give each a clear title and heading, speed up slow pages and add pages for services you're missing. Then publish useful content and earn links over time. Our SEO plans do this every month from $1,000 + GST a month, with no lock-in contracts.
