Web Design
A web design agency for Australian businesses that want design, development and search handled by one team, with a fixed package price before work starts.
Web design agency
Rock Solid Marketing is a web design agency that plans, designs, builds and optimises websites for businesses across Australia, run from our office in Mildura. You deal with one account manager, and the people who do the work sit on the same team.
That matters more than it sounds. Plenty of web design agencies hand the build or the SEO to outside contractors, and you end up passing messages between them. A page looks right but loads slowly, or ranks well but nobody can find the phone number. Our designer, developer and SEO strategist check each other’s work before you see it.
Website packages start from $5,000 + GST for up to 5 pages, and every project starts with a free discovery call. If a solo freelancer or a simple template will do the job, we’ll tell you before we quote.

Why one team
Most website problems start at the hand-offs, so we keep the designer, developer and SEO on your project from start to finish.
Lindsay Buckley has more than 20 years of web design and 15+ years of SEO and WordPress work. Layouts, page titles and site structure are planned together, before the first page is built.
Saimul Islam builds on WordPress, Shopify, Webflow and other content management systems. You can change your own text, photos and staff pages after launch without calling us.
Logos, icons and brand graphics come from our in-house design team. We can also arrange product photography, headshots and video, so your pages don’t lean on the same stock photos as everyone else.
A website agency that skips the brief guesses. We start with who buys from you, what they search for and what you want them to do: call, book or buy.
Most of your customers will see the site on a phone. We test every page on phones, tablets and desktops before launch, and fix what breaks.
Essentials includes 2 weeks of follow-up support, Standard 4 weeks and Advanced 8 weeks. After that, a care plan or upfront hours keep the site updated.
Your specialists
Lindsay BuckleyDigital MastermindSydney NSW
Saimul IslamDeveloper & AI expertBendigo VICHow it works
Four stages, with your approval at each one before we move on.
A free 30-minute call about your business, your customers and what the website has to do, followed by a written scope and fixed price.
We design the key pages around your brand and content. You give feedback in rounds: three on Essentials, with more room on the larger packages.
Saimul builds the approved design on a system you can edit, while Lindsay sets up page titles, headings and the search basics.
We test on phones and desktops, launch, then stay on hand for 2 to 8 weeks of support depending on your package.
How it starts
A free 30-minute discovery call comes first. We ask what the site has to do and who it’s for. Then we list what you already have: a logo, photos, copy, a domain.
Then you get a written scope matched to one of our website packages, with the price, the pages and the rounds of feedback spelled out. Nothing starts until you approve it. If you’re comparing a website development agency with a design studio, ask both for a scope like this. It shows you who is doing what.
You know the price, the pages and the people before you sign.

We approached Rock Solid Marketing to build our online store for our retail division and to look after our existing website. The professionalism of Sean and his team from day one was incredible, they took the time to sit down with us to discuss our exact requirements and they offered suggestions for the build which would improve the overall running of the store.
The finished result of our online store is nothing short of fantastic- it integrates with our point of sale software, it is very easy to navigate, and presents and operates as a professionally made web store should. Since completion and hand over, the back up support we receive from Rock Solid Marketing is remarkable- nothing is too much trouble and we can contact the team at any time with any questions we may have. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Sean, Janine and the team from Rock Solid Marketing for building or revamping a website, creating an online store to suit your business or with online marketing.

FAQ
Can’t find what you’re after? Call us on 1800 842 022 or browse every answer on our FAQ page.
All FAQsOur website packages start from $5,000 + GST for up to 5 pages. Standard is $6,500 + GST for 10 to 25 pages. Advanced is $12,000 + GST for 25 to 50 pages, and online stores start from $6,000 + GST. Each can be paid in 6 monthly instalments.
Most small business websites take 4 to 8 weeks. The biggest factor is usually content: a site waits on the words and photos it needs. Larger builds with products, integrations or 25+ pages take longer, and we give you the timeline with the scope after the discovery call.
A web design company plans, designs and builds websites for other businesses. Some only design, some only code, and some also handle search, hosting and updates. Rock Solid Marketing does all four with one team, so the site that’s designed is the site that gets built and found on Google.
The right one has built sites like yours and can show them. Ask for 2 or 3 examples in your industry or at your size, then ask who did the design and who did the build. Our work includes a winery’s first website with online wine sales and a product catalogue site for a trading business.
Compare written scopes, not hourly rates. A good scope lists the pages, features, rounds of feedback, support period and price. Then check who you’ll talk to each week. With us that’s one account manager, backed by a designer, a developer and an SEO specialist on the same team.
Check 4 things: logins, editing, support and ongoing costs. Ask who holds the logins and whether you can edit the site yourself. Our sites run on systems you can update, with 2 to 8 weeks of support included. Care plans start from $275 + GST a month.
Start with the smallest package that does the job. The best web design agency for you is the one that tells you what you can skip. Many service businesses fit Essentials at $5,000 + GST; you add pages or features later instead of paying for them on day one.
Not always. A good freelancer suits a simple site with a fixed brief. A web design firm suits a project that needs design, development and SEO at once, or ongoing changes after launch. If you’re weighing an agency for web design against a freelancer, ask each who covers holidays, hosting and fixes.
No. You can host the site yourself or use our Australian hosting from $400 + GST a year. Care plans start from $275 + GST a month, with a 6-month minimum. For occasional edits, buy upfront hours at $175 + GST an hour in blocks of 3 or 5 hours.
Let’s start by scheduling a free discovery call so we can get to know each other and see if we’re a good fit for your marketing needs.
