Web Design Perth

Yes. If you're happy with your logo, colours and fonts, our Website package is the web design Perth businesses with an established brand need. Our web design team designs every page around your existing identity, writes the copy, sets up the search engine optimisation (SEO) foundations and builds it from scratch as a WordPress website you can update yourself. Plenty of Perth companies come to us with a brand they love and an existing website that no longer does it justice, and that's exactly the website design project Website is for.

If your brand needs some work first, our Brand + Website package takes care of both, so the brand identity and the Perth website design are created together from day one. Those tend to be the web design projects we're proudest of, because every page is built on thinking that already exists.

One honest note on what counts as a brand. A logo and a favourite colour isn't a brand. A well-considered identity, with the strategy, the assets and the voice behind it, is what makes a website feel cohesive rather than just tidy. If you're not sure yours is there yet, that's the conversation to have before the website starts.

Not quite, and we'd rather tell you that than pretend. Red Kite is a web design agency based in Brisbane working with businesses nationally, and Western Australia is a regular part of that, from Perth web design projects to brand work for regional Western Australia. A website designer with a Perth shopfront isn't the only option, and plenty of successful websites in WA were built by a team the client never met in person. Our whole team is in house, our web designers and web developers handle the strategy, design, copy and build, and the project runs through video calls, recorded walkthroughs and a shared project hub, so distance never gets in the way of local businesses getting the professional website design and web development they need. We book calls around the time difference, and Perth clients get the same designer, the same web design process (design mockups are signed off before development begins) and the same attention as anyone who could walk into our studio. Our web design process is the same wherever you are. Discovery, strategy, design, copy, build, launch and ongoing support.

There are upsides to it. You're not paying for an office on St Georges Terrace, and you get a web design company with 160+ five-star Google reviews from businesses right across Australia and around the world, rather than one that only knows its own postcode. Have a read of the reviews and you'll get a good feel for how our web design services work in practice.

We've worked with Western Australian organisations as different as WA Police and Next Energy & Electrical, each needing an identity people could trust at a glance and a brand's personality that stands out across Western Australia. A website is an extension of exactly that thinking, and the same care goes into every site we design and build. Chris, our founder, has run Red Kite for more than eight years and worked as a website designer for almost a decade before that, so you're working with experience rather than a start-up.

Our web design and web development work covers clients right across Australia, from trades, clinics and professional services to escape rooms, software companies and online stores, and we work with national brands like Shaver Shop on packaging and brand. Have a look at our case studies and the reviews, then tell us about your Perth business and our web design team will give you an honest steer on where to start.

Web design Perth prices range from a few hundred dollars for a DIY template to tens of thousands for a large custom website design and build, and most of the difference comes down to what's included. The cheap end usually leaves out strategy, copywriting, SEO foundations, lead generation thinking and proper testing, so you end up sourcing those yourself or living without them. A professionally designed, mobile responsive website for a small to medium business more often lands between $5,000 and $20,000, with custom online stores and larger corporate websites sitting above that, and complex ecommerce website builds running well into five figures and beyond. A web design agency like ours sits in the professional middle, where you're paying for expertise and a website that's expected to earn its money back many times over, whether you grow it with content, digital marketing or Google Ads later on.

Transparency matters when you're comparing providers, so we keep it simple by scoping around outcomes rather than vague hours, and you know exactly what you're paying for and why. Both of our web design packages cover the full website development process, from planning and wireframing through to design, copy, web development, go-live and handover, and the scope can grow with more pages or functionality where it makes sense for your business objectives.

Affordable depends on what the website has to earn back. Value matters more to us than being the lowest price in Perth, because the cheapest route usually means a template, copy you write yourself and nobody to call when something breaks. What we offer is a fixed-scope website design with the copy, the SEO foundations and the testing included, so there are no surprise extras, and flexible payment plans that spread the cost across the project. We find something that works for you.

For a small business, a website that brings in two or three good enquiries a month pays for itself quickly, and that's the measure we'd ask you to use. If your budget is firmly at the DIY end, we'll tell you so honestly rather than squeeze you into a package that isn't right.

Fast, but never rushed. Most web design projects in Australia take 4 to 8 weeks, and ours usually move quicker. Our Website package is deliberately streamlined, so with quick feedback from you a website design project can have your new site live in about 2 to 4 weeks from kick-off. Bigger sites and online stores take longer because of content, features and testing, and the biggest factors are how many pages and templates you need, integrations like bookings or payments, and how quickly approvals come back.

Brand + Website covers two jobs that most businesses would hand to two different suppliers, a full brand identity and then a website built on it, so it naturally runs longer. The identity comes first, because getting that right is what makes the website work. Brand Foundations usually runs 3 to 6 weeks and Brand Master 4 to 8, then the website itself takes about 4 to 8 weeks depending on size and complexity. You'll get a clear estimate at the start, we'll tell you before you commit if anything changes, and we keep you updated at every key milestone.

The same wherever you are in Western Australia, and designed so you always know what's happening next. It starts with discovery, a call where we get to the heart of what your business does, who your target audience is and what the website needs to achieve. From that we plan the site structure and write the copy, so every page has a job before anything is designed.

Then our web designers design the key pages and share them as mockups with a recorded walkthrough, you give feedback, and nothing moves to build until the design is signed off. Web development happens in WordPress, we test on mobile devices, tablets and desktop browsers, load your content, set up the SEO foundations and go live with 30 days of aftercare. Most Perth web designers will describe a similar process. The difference with us is that one designer carries it from the first call to launch, so nothing gets lost in a handover.

Yes, WordPress is our platform of choice for Perth web design and for the websites we build everywhere else. It powers over 40% of the websites in the world, it's open source, and it means you're never locked in. Every WordPress website we build is a custom website design, not a theme pulled off a shelf, with a content management system set up so you can update text, images and pages yourself. You own the website, the content and the CMS access outright.

WordPress also grows with you. Bookings, forms, galleries, member areas, integrations with your CRM or accounting software and a WooCommerce ecommerce website can all be added when the business needs them, without starting again, and we create websites with that growth planned in. If you've been quoted a proprietary website builder by another Perth web design agency or digital agency, ask what happens to your site if you ever want to leave. With WordPress, the answer is that it comes with you.

Yes. The ecommerce stores we design span food and beverage, health and beauty, tech products and hospitality businesses running on online booking platforms, built as WordPress websites with WooCommerce or on Shopify, depending on what suits the ecommerce business. We set up products and collections around your target audience, integrate payment gateways like Stripe and PayPal, build a fully functional checkout with shipping sorted (and WA freight is its own puzzle, so we plan for it), write the product copy and leave you with a backend that's easy to manage day to day, so your online store never depends on a developer and your online sales keep moving.

One thing to know about online stores. They vary so much that we don't quote them off a package. Tell us what you sell, how many products you have and what the store needs to do, and we'll set up a quick chat to make sure it's something we can help with and give you an accurate quote rather than a guess.

Every website we build includes the search engine optimisation (SEO) foundations it needs to be found. A clean, SEO friendly website design and structure that search engines can crawl and index properly, SEO friendly URLs and titles, meta descriptions for key pages, optimised images for site speed, responsive web design (Google ranks the mobile version of your site first, so mobile responsiveness matters more than ever) and page content that speaks to Perth customers and the areas you serve, so your search visibility grows from day one. Over half of all website traffic comes from organic search, so websites optimised on SEO best practices from day one simply get found more than ones that aren't, and a strong digital presence compounds over time, and that increasingly applies to AI search tools as well as Google, so we structure content so it can be read and cited by both.

It's worth being honest here. We're not an SEO agency or a digital marketing agency and we don't run Google Ads or SEO campaigns ourselves, but we can introduce you to a digital marketing agency we work closely with when you're ready for them. A good SEO strategy is a long-term investment, with keyword research, content and ongoing search engine optimisation building organic traffic over time, and you can watch that happen in Google Analytics and Search Console, two tools every Perth business should have running from launch day. Ask and we'll point you to the Google Analytics setup guides we recommend. What we promise is a website built correctly from the ground up, so your future content, SEO strategy, Google Ads and digital marketing services have the best possible platform to perform on, whether that's with an agency we introduce or a team you already have.

It depends on what you need the website to do and the business goals behind it. Perth web designers broadly come in two kinds, and the right web design services for you depend on the job. A freelance website designer in Perth can be a good fit for a basic website on a tight budget, but you'll often be sourcing your own copy, photography and SEO, juggling a separate website developer if anything technical comes up, and relying on one person's availability. A large web design agency gives you a bigger team, usually at a bigger price, with account managers between you and the web designers doing the work.

We sit in between, and on purpose. Red Kite is a designer-led web design company, so you deal directly with the website designer working on your site, backed by our web developers for the build, and the whole team is focused on your business objectives. Strategy, copywriting, website design, responsive web design and web development all happen in one place, our web design process keeps the experience personal, and the project is managed properly from kick-off to launch. You get the care of working with a website designer and the breadth of a design agency, without the layers.

Yes, and most of the businesses we work with are small businesses, from sole traders, trades and professional services to start-ups and established companies with a team behind them. A small business website design doesn't need to be big, it needs to be right. Clear about what you do, easy to find on search engines, quick to load on mobile devices and built to generate leads. In a city like Perth, where so much work still comes by recommendation, that clarity is what turns a mention into an enquiry.

Small business owners are usually the ones wearing every hat, so we keep the web design process light on your time. We run discovery, write the copy, build websites in WordPress that you can manage and hand you the keys with our Keys to your website guide, so you can get on with running the business. If your logo and identity need a refresh at the same time, Brand + Website gets both done in one go, which is often the most cost effective route for a growing small business.

Yes. Corporate website design brings its own demands, with more stakeholders, more content, brand guidelines to follow and often an existing website with years of pages to rationalise. Our web design process handles that with a clear sitemap and content plan up front, design mockups signed off before web development begins, and a WordPress build structured so your team can add news, careers pages, case studies and resources without a developer.

Our work with WA Police is a good indication of the kind of organisation we're comfortable working with, where clarity, consistency and approvals matter. For a corporate website we also plan accessibility, performance and security from the start, because at that scale they're not optional extras.

Yes, and it's a very common way for a web design project to start. An existing website that was fine five years ago often no longer reflects the business, loads slowly on mobile devices or makes people work too hard to find what they need, and every month it stays live it costs you enquiries. We don't rework or tidy up the current site. We design and build a brand new website from scratch, so you get a digital presence that matches where the business is now, not where it was.

We'll look at what your existing website does well (the pages people actually visit, the searches it already shows up for and the information your customers rely on) so nothing important gets lost, then plan the new site around it and fix everything that doesn't work. The copy is written fresh for the new design. We handle the switch over so your domain moves across smoothly, set up redirects from your old pages so the search visibility you've built has the best chance of carrying across, and help sort out your email, either ourselves or with your hosting provider. If you're not sure whether your current site needs replacing, send us the link and we'll tell you honestly.

Every one, without exception. More than half of the people who find your Perth business online will do it on a phone, and Google ranks the mobile version of your site first, so responsive web design isn't a feature we add, it's how we build. Every layout is designed for mobile devices, tablets and desktop screens, then tested on real browsers before go-live, so buttons are easy to tap, text is readable without zooming and forms work with a thumb.

Speed is part of that. Slow loading websites lose visitors before the page has finished drawing, so images are optimised, code is kept lean and we check load times on a mobile connection, not just an office one.

Small businesses often start on a DIY builder, and that's fine for testing an idea. The trouble starts when the business grows. Templates limit how your brand's personality can show, the same layouts turn up on your competitors' sites, they rarely convert visitors well, mobile usability is often poor, and you don't fully own or control what you've built. A custom website design tailored to how your business actually works performs better on search engines, on mobile devices and with potential customers, and gives you full ownership of the design and the content.

Our custom web design starts with your target audience and your business objectives, then the structure, the layouts and the copy are built around them. Nothing is reused from an existing website or a template. Every page is designed and built from scratch by our web designers. The result looks like your business, not like a template with your logo dropped in.

Both packages cover end-to-end professional website design and web development services, not just a pretty front end. Think strategy, usability, copywriting, web design and a proper build, all working together so the website is visually appealing, loads quickly, gives a seamless user experience and guides people to take action.

With Website you get discovery and goal setting, a sitemap and site structure planned around your customers, custom web design built around your existing identity, professionally written copy, responsive design for mobile devices, tablet and desktop, SEO foundations so search engines can crawl and index it properly, performance optimisation and cross-browser testing on mobile devices and desktop, then launch with 30 days of aftercare and our Keys to your website guide. Every site is built in the WordPress content management system so you can manage it yourself, and a hosting and care plan with ongoing support and ongoing maintenance like updates and backups is there if you want us to look after it long term.

We also design with accessibility in mind, following the WCAG guidelines that Australian accessibility standards are based on, so your website is usable by every customer, which builds trust, and you aren't exposed to the legal risk of a site some people can't use.

Brand + Website includes all of that plus the brand itself. Discovery and strategy, your new logo and brand assets, a comprehensive brand style guide, content-first wireframes of every page, a kickoff call with our lead designer, video walkthroughs at every stage, hands-on training and support, creative direction that carries your brand vision into every page, and copy shaped by the brand work (or written from your brand voice and messaging with Brand Master). You can add a graphic design collateral suite too, so business cards, signage and social templates match the website from day one.

Going live isn't the end, it's where the work starts paying off, and every second of load time still counts, since a one second delay can cost a business around 7% of its conversions. We handle the launch, connect your domain, and every website our web designers build comes with 30 days of aftercare, so any tweaks or fixes in that first month are on us, plus our Keys to your website guide so you're confident running it yourself and adding pages as the business grows.

After that, our optional hosting and care plan keeps everything up to date. Fast, secure hosting, plugin and WordPress updates, daily backups, security monitoring and support by phone or email from the team that built the site, rather than a ticket queue. Website maintenance is the part most small businesses forget until something breaks, and the plan is a small cost for peace of mind, better uptime and a team that will provide ongoing support for years.

Website is for Perth businesses with a brand they're happy with. We design and build a brand new website from scratch around your existing logo, colours and fonts, write the copy for every page and set up the SEO foundations, then hand you the keys. If your existing website is holding you back, this is the fastest route to a website design that doesn't.

Brand + Website starts with your brand, because the most visually appealing websites grow out of a clear identity. You choose one of our brand solutions, Brand Foundations or Brand Master, and once your new identity is signed off we design your website around it. The advantage shows in the detail. Bespoke brand assets, illustration and imagery give the Perth website design a look nobody else in your market has, which is where brand recognition starts, and because we've got to know your business so well along the way, the copy is far more closely tailored to you. With Brand Master, every page is written from the brand voice and messaging we create together, so the whole site sounds unmistakably like you.

If you're not sure which web design package is right, tell us about your business and we'll give you an honest steer. We'd rather you ended up with the right package than the bigger one.
