Common questions from Gladstone businesses

Are you actually based in Gladstone?

Our team is based in Rockhampton, around 100km north of Gladstone, and we travel to Gladstone, Emerald, and Yeppoon regularly to meet clients. We've been working with Central Queensland businesses for over 20 years and know the Gladstone market — the port, the LNG sector on Curtis Island, and the local trades and professional services scene.

How much does a website cost for a Gladstone business?

Website costs vary depending on what your business needs. A simple brochure site for a local trade business is different to a custom platform for an industrial supplier with quoting and compliance requirements. We provide a free consultation and a fixed quote up front, so you know exactly what you're paying before any work starts. Call 0488 701 953 to discuss your project.

How long does it take to build a new website?

Most small business websites take 4 to 8 weeks from kickoff to launch. Larger projects with custom functionality — supplier portals, booking systems, integrations — can take 8 to 16 weeks. Timing depends on how quickly content and feedback can be turned around. We give you a realistic timeline before starting.

Do you build websites for industrial and LNG sector suppliers?

Yes. A significant portion of our Gladstone work is for industrial suppliers, port contractors, and businesses servicing the LNG shutdown and maintenance cycles on Curtis Island. We understand procurement audiences — they need credibility signals, fast load times, and clear capability statements rather than retail-style sales pages.

Can you redesign my existing website instead of building a new one?

Often, yes. If your existing site has a reasonable structure and decent content but looks dated or converts poorly, a redesign is usually faster and cheaper than starting from scratch. We start with a free audit to tell you whether redesign or rebuild makes more sense for your situation.

Do you offer SEO and Google Ads for Gladstone businesses?

Yes. We offer local SEO targeted at Gladstone and the surrounding industrial corridor — Calliope, Boyne Island, Tannum Sands and beyond — as well as Google Ads, Facebook, and Instagram campaigns. We focus on generating real enquiries rather than vanity metrics like impressions.

Do you provide ongoing support after the website launches?

Yes. We don't disappear after launch. Most clients work with us on ongoing updates, content changes, performance reviews, and security patches. You deal with the same local CQ operator who built your site, not a support queue.
