How to Improve Website Speed: A Practical Guide
A plain-English guide to faster pages: how to test your website speed, what a good result looks like, and the fixes that make the biggest difference.
Swan Hill
Web design Swan Hill businesses can rely on: websites for locals, growers and Murray River visitors, built from our Mildura office and found on Google.
Websites on the Murray
Rock Solid Marketing designs and builds websites for businesses in Swan Hill from our office in Mildura, a couple of hours up the Murray. We don't have an office in Swan Hill, so planning and design reviews happen by video call, phone and email.
Swan Hill works on three fronts. Locals need a trade, a clinic or a shop they can call today. Growers and farm suppliers trade across the district. And visitors come for the Pioneer Settlement, the river and the Giant Murray Cod, planning their stay on a phone. Your website has to make sense to all three.
Website packages start from $5,000 + GST, or 6 monthly payments of $833 + GST. The first step is a free 30-minute discovery call.

What we build
Every site is planned around who calls, books or buys from you, and from which side of the river.
If you work across Swan Hill, Murray Downs, Nyah, Lake Boga and the farms in between, each area gets clear details so locals know you cover them.
Opening hours, booking buttons and directions that work for travellers coming for the river, the Pioneer Settlement or a long weekend.
Light pages and compressed images that load quickly on mobile data, including out on the highway between towns where the signal drops.
Quote forms for trades and services, and online stores for shops and producers selling beyond the district, on the E-commerce package from $6,000 + GST.
Page titles, local business details and a Google Business Profile set up so people searching in Swan Hill find you, not a city firm.
Every site is built to WCAG 2.2 AA, so older customers, people using screen readers and anyone on a small screen can use it.

Rachel EhratCreator Of All Things Amazing!TasmaniaHow it works
Plan, design, build and launch, with your sign-off at each step by video call or email.
A free 30-minute call about your business, your customers across the district and what the site must do.
We map the pages and show you the design for feedback before anything is built.
We build the site, load your content and set up forms, Google Business Profile details and tracking.
We launch, check everything on phones and computers, and show you how to update it yourself.
How we work
We start by asking who your customers are and where they come from. A Swan Hill plumber needs service areas and a fast quote form. A caravan park needs availability, photos and directions. A grower selling direct needs a simple shop. Then we plan the pages and show you the design before we build.
You supply the content and photos, and get 3 rounds of feedback on Essentials. Meetings are by video call or at our Mildura office by booking. If your current site only needs a tidy-up and a better Google listing, we'll tell you before we quote.
Planned and built from Mildura, reviewed with you by video.

No. We work from our office at 3/71 Deakin Ave in Mildura, a couple of hours up the Murray. Swan Hill clients meet us by video call, phone and email, or visit Mildura by booking. If your project needs a visit, we'll talk it through when we quote.
Yes. Every site we build has the basics: page titles, fast loading and your Google Business Profile details. For ongoing work, SEO plans start from $1,000 + GST a month with no lock-in contracts. As an SEO company in Swan Hill's region, we focus on the searches locals and visitors really use.
We're a digital marketing agency in Mildura that works with businesses along the Murray, including yours. Our digital marketing services in Swan Hill cover websites, SEO, Google Ads, social media and design. If you're comparing us with a digital marketing company in your own town, ask who does the work and how you'll meet.
Yes. If you serve customers across the district, we add clear service area details and, where it helps, a page for each area. That way someone searching in Murray Downs or Lake Boga knows you cover them. We only add pages that have something useful to say, not copies with the town name swapped.
It depends on the number of pages and how quickly content and feedback come back. We agree a timeline at the discovery call, once we know the scope. Having your text and photos ready before we start is the fastest way to launch sooner. We'll also tell you what we need from you, and when.
Yes. We build on platforms you can edit, such as WordPress, and show you how to change text, photos, hours and specials. If you'd rather not, our website care plans start from $275 + GST a month with a minimum of 6 months, and include updates and security checks.
Choose on the work, not just the postcode. Ask to see regional sites they've built, what's included and who you'll deal with. Plenty of Swan Hill website design is done by agencies outside town by video call. Whoever you choose, insist on owning your domain and website.
