Website Design & Development.

It’s 2024. Your website is the first point of contact for any potential client, supplier or panel… so why does yours suck?

With a combined 36+ years of web development experience under our belts, we know what works… and what doesn’t.

What doesn't work.

Facebook & Insta Pages

While social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram are essential for connecting with audiences, relying solely on them as a primary online presence is a no-go. Social media pages lack the customisation and depth that a dedicated website offers, and are subject to both the algorithms and policies the platforms are hosted on. Plus you are in ‘their playground’ along with all of your competitors. Why not steer customers to your playground, where they have an opportunity to focus on your brand?

Not to mention, even if you see a great brand on Facebook, and later want to find them, do you not “Google” them?

Wix, Squarespace & Weebly

While website builders like Wix, Squarespace, and Weebly offer convenience, they come with plethora of limitations.

These platforms use templates that will result in generic-looking websites lacking the uniqueness essential for brand identity. Choosing these platforms will sacrifice long-term flexibility, ranking well on google and scalability. We only use WordPress – the most popular website platform with 63% market share, the next being Shopify with 6%. Be careful! If you already have a website on one of these platforms that you are happy with the look of, but have realised the limitations, get in touch, we also offer a rebuild and optimise service.

Cheap Solutions

You get what you pay for. We have seen it time and time again. WordPress Web Designers that work part time, use GoDaddy and Crazy Domains for hosting, outsource any development as they do not have the technical expertise, or, they are a one man band working from home. Inevitably – they get sick of the work that comes with maintenance, security and customer service. Your 24/7 asset is left in the lurch. And just because someone is building on WordPress does not mean it is equal! After designing hundreds of websites, we have fine tuned proven process that involves 300 steps from start to finish. Put your business first and invest in its long term success.

What does work.

Spoiler alert, it’s our solution.

A custom, responsive design.

Our designs aren’t pre-made inflexible templates. We work tirelessly to ensure you’ll stand out from the competition, on every device. We pride ourselves on attention to detail. We’ll create an artisan website that will set you apart from the competition. We make sure your target audience will feel at home, and become raving fans.

A secure, fast and maintaned hosting plan.

Our hosting plan is the best in town. Scratch that, it’s the best nationally. Leveraging the same technologies that power AMD, Dropbox, Under Armour, Yelp (alongisde a whole heap more) – we guarantee your site will be secure, lightning quick and always up to date. Nobody waits for a website to load. They will simply go to the next one (your competition). Google also will penalise your rank. We take care of every aspect of this from webp image optimisation to Content Delivery Networks.

Local, country support.

Some developers will launch a site and part ways. Not us. We are here for the long term with great customer support. We have an office in Wagga that we turn up to every day. We answer the desk phones. We speak normally and won’t bamboozle you with Tech Speak. Need something changed, and don’t have the time to do it? Flick us an email and consider it done. Disclaimer: Fridays between 12pm and 2pm slight delays may occur while we attend our traditional pub lunch.

Data Data Data..

Analytics are critical to the success of your website. We provide you with monthly reports on who is looking, what they are looking at and how long they hang around. This data is the ONLY way to make correct and timely modifications to your website without guesswork.

Are the calls to action effective? Is the messaging right? Are visits being converted to enquiry? We also have additional options that can give live updates on all of your platforms data (Facebook, Instagram, Google Business to name a few) for a holistic view of your digital marketing efforts.

An Easy to Use Editor

Want to add a couple of pages? Update an image or some copy? Our sites are even easier to edit than Squarespace or Wix. We will fully train you on how to do this. And we are here if you would rather us do it.

Our editor is fully drag and drop. Want a video below the text? Drag it in, and pop the YouTube link inside it, job done. Want to tweak how it shows on the mobile? Click mobile view. It is incredible software.

Of course – we have already setup everything in the backend to make sure it will optimise image sizes, cache everything correctly, so your visitors still see a lightning fast website.

Ownership.

Your site is yours. Some vendors build sites and lock you in to their way of doing things and if you aren’t happy, too bad, your loss, start again.

We don’t operate like that. We want you to love Simple Pixels service and we will do our best to deliver on this! We back our infrastructure, maintenance and service levels 100%. If you aren’t happy with us though, the website is still yours, we will give you the keys and you can move it elsewhere.

Copy, Photography & Videography

We can take care of copywriting, photography and videography. We partner closely with three local leading photographers that deliver outstanding work. We can guide them on exactly what we want captured.

Combine this with our copywriting services, we can make sure your website speaks directly to your ideal client persona, resulting in greater engagement and conversions.

Any business, any size.

Small businesses looking for growth, schools looking to fulfil enrolments, universities and not for profits looking for tender approvals, councils required to meet accessibility criteria, real estate agents looking to attract landlords and vendors, large corporations looking for an dedicated extension of their marketing department or shops looking to for an eCommerce solution.

We’ve got you covered. We welcome clients of all sizes – and guarantee we can create a website that caters to your needs.
