Frequently Asked Questions

Whilst some websites can be done for as little as $1,000 (plus GST), most of the work you’ll see in our showcase ranges between $2,500 – $15,000 for large ecommerce and product websites.

Some key factors that determine the cost of a website design project are:

1. The complexity of the project
2. The complexity requirements of the design
3. The size of the project
4. The amount of time required to build and test your website

–  For an average-sized website that has 5-10 custom page designs our quote is $2,500 – $5,000 for the design and development phase, depending on the length of the pages.

–  If you need more than 10 custom page designs we will send you a quote once we have the full brief.

As these factors can vary greatly from one website to another, it’s always best to contact us for a quote.

–   You answer our design questionnaire, as best you can or send us your detailed brief.
–   We have a 1 hour Zoom video call to work out a website boosting plan, where we will deep dive to identify the top obstacles that are holding your website back and will show you what’s possible.
–   You leave the session feeling confident and clear on our plan for how we’re going to take your website to the next level.
–   After the Zoom we send you the final quote, then you decide if you want to proceed.

 

Here’s our action plan for the design phase:
–   We will professionally design a unique custom website to suit your vision to boost your results.
–   Our world-class design team will create a look and feel to appeal to your ideal audience.
–   The design will have a modern layout & hierarchy that is clear & simple to understand.
–   Within the first week roughly, we will send you the home page design for your feedback / approval.
–   We make unlimited design revisions until you approve the design, as long as the the revisions are inline with the original brief.
–   Once you approve the home page design, we will start designing the inner designs.
–   We make unlimited design revisions, based on the original design brief, until all pages are approved.
–   Once you approve the design, we package the final editable design files for the developers to build the website.
–   We automatically sign the Intellectual Property rights over to you.
–   As per our standard design terms here…  https://explosionmarketing.com.au/terms-and-conditions/
 

The total design phase for all page designs usually takes around 3-4 weeks from the time we have the full brief until we have the entire website designed and approved, including unlimited design revisions.

The homepage design will be sent to you within the first week generally.

Yes, if you you need it urgently, we can give you priority to ensure we meet your tight deadline for an extra fee. (To be quoted at the time of your request.)

As long as we have your answers to our design questionnaire and we understand the brief, then we can design most pages without your copywriting, photos or videos. We will use place holders initially, then present the design to you so you know where we will need you to provide the written content.)

With sales pages, we usually need your copywriting first. We have page layouts / structure that we know works well for landing pages, depending on the offer, so we can guide you on our call if you need us to.

All of our websites are built using SEO best practices. This means that once your new website is launched, Google will be able to easily understand everything you have published and rank your site into a competitive position.

Further to this, as our company has a team of SEO experts who consult on all our projects, we provide our clients with additional advice throughout the web design process to help them make decisions which won’t negatively affect their rankings.

Whilst this means a lot of our websites do end up on page one of Google, if you are trying to compete for keywords which are in high demand, it’s likely you’ll be trying to beat websites which use SEO experts on a monthly basis to prevent you from ranking above them.

For cases like this, we encourage you to consider discussing an SEO plan with us. This can be a very cost effective way of giving your website strong on-going exposure and bring in a lot of new leads.

Yes, we offer unlimited design revisions on everything we design for you, until you approve the designs, as long as the revisions are inline with the original brief. If you completely change direction after we start designing or add to the original brief, then we will send you a quote to continue designing as per the new direction.

Our goal is to give you designs that you love. If you like what you see in our folio and case studies, there is a high chance that you love what we design for you. If you don’t love the design we create for you, we will revise the design until you do love it. We have a dozen designers, so if you’re not happy with the designs, we can start fresh with a new designer.

When we design the mobile view, we try to simplify the pages because we know how important site speed is for conversions and rankings.
 
On the mobile views, we may replace background images with a flat colour, plus it’s worth testing removing images & reducing the number of elements and sections on the page.  The goal is to have it load fast AND convert, so it can be a balancing act of what to simplify.

This phase usually takes around 4 weeks from the time you approve the designs.

We charge upfront and it needs to be paid in full to get us started. We don’t offer to split invoices and here’s why…

We generally have between 25+ design projects on the go at any given time, so if we had to split the invoices for every client and send the second invoice after the work is completed, we would need to hire a full-time bookkeeper, which means we would need to increase our prices. We charge up front so we can give you our best price.

We can of course offer you AfterPay.

Yes we do. We promise to give you unlimited design revisions until you approve the designs. However in the very unlikely event that you are truly not happy with our designs after we have done everything within our power to deliver our best designs to you, using multiple designers and giving you unlimited design revisions, then YES we will give you a refund that we both agree is fair. Our reputation means the world to us and we want you to be satisfied that we have done our best.

–   Once the designs are approved, we’ll build the site, as per the approved designs, on our staging server.
–   We will build your site on WordPress using the Genesis child theme on a fresh new WordPress install.
–   Then we will build the pages using the Elementor page builder so that it’s easy for you to make updates yourself.
–   It will be responsively coded for viewing on all mobile devices and all screen sizes.
–   Our coders use WordPress best practices for coding so it will be tuned for speed.
–   We will keep all of your existing blog posts and urls that you have currently on your live site, to avoid any SEO loss on those pages.
 –   We will review, keep or connect all external 3rd party plugins that you have currently.
–   We will connect the site to your existing email marketing platform, payment gateway, etc.
–   We will install Google tag manager, Google / Facebook remarketing pixels, etc.

As a general rule, all of our website development and SEO work is all done locally in house.

The only exception tends to be for websites with highly specialised needs e.g. specialist integration systems.

In scenarios like this, we will always discuss with you the reasons for engaging a specialist and outline exactly what their role will be within the scope of the web design project.

Beyond this, all other work is done by our team in Australia.

This doesn’t mean we don’t work with instate companies from countries like the New Zealand, USA or Emirates. We’re always happy to take on clients based overseas provided we feel that the nature of the web project is well suited to working remotely.

Despite this, we will tend to prefer new web design work from locally based businesses purely because we feel it allows us to have a stronger working relationship with our clients and communicate with them more effectively.

Yes, with all designs that we create for you, we automatically sign the Intellectual Property rights over to you when paid in full. (All of our designers have signed an designers agreement with Studio1 signing the I.P Rights to Studio1, so we transfer the rights to you.)
