A new website built to rank, with ongoing SEO from the same person
Most websites are built first and optimised later, if ever. With web design and SEO Bundaberg businesses get both from one person. I prefer to plan the build around how people search, then keep the SEO going once it launches.
The search work starts before the design does
A lot of Bundaberg businesses come to me with a nice looking website that nobody finds. The design is fine, but the pages were never planned around the words customers type into Google. Fixing that later means rewriting content, changing page structure and sometimes rebuilding altogether.
When I plan a build with SEO in mind, the keyword research comes first. That decides what pages you need, what each one is called and what it says. The design then follows the content instead of the other way around.
Because the same person builds the site and does the SEO, nothing gets lost in a handover. That is the whole point of my web design and SEO Bundaberg package. I know why each page exists, so when the monthly work starts I am improving something I already understand.
A one off build plus a monthly plan you can stop any time
There is no special bundle price here. You pay for the website once and choose a monthly SEO plan, using the normal prices shown across the site.
$2200 incl GST, one off
A multi page WordPress site with mobile friendly design, Google Analytics, contact form, Google Map and full editing access. Includes a free first year of WordPress maintenance.
From $279 a month incl GST
Month to month SEO starting the week the site goes live. Basic suits most small businesses, Growth adds citations and content advice for busier markets.
Extra, quoted separately
You own your domain and I can look after hosting for you. Fast, reliable hosting matters for rankings, so I keep it simple and sensible.
What happens and in what order
1
I look at what your Bundaberg customers search for, who already ranks and which suburbs matter to you. This shapes the site map.
2
Pages are written and designed around those searches, with proper titles, headings, schema markup and fast loading built in.
3
The site goes live with Search Console and Analytics connected, your Google Business Profile linked and any old pages redirected.
4
Your SEO plan kicks in. Each month I improve pages, build citations, add content and report back in plain English.
SEO work that happens during the build at no extra cost
Every page targets a clear search phrase so pages do not compete with each other.
Written for people first, under the length Google shows, with your main phrase near the front.
Business details, services and FAQs marked up so Google understands what you do and where.
Most Bundaberg searches happen on phones. Pages are built light and tested on mobile.
If you are replacing a site, old URLs point to the new ones so you keep what you have earned.
Connected at launch so there is real data to work from when the monthly SEO starts.
And when it might not be the right fit
This works well if your current site is old, slow or hard to edit and you also want more calls from Google. It suits trades, clinics, tourism operators and service businesses around Bundaberg that rely on local searches for new work. My industries page has notes on how SEO differs from one trade to the next.
If your site is already in good shape, you may not need a rebuild at all. In that case an SEO plan on its own makes more sense. I will say so. If budget is tight, the Single Page Website at $880 can still be set up with solid on page SEO, though a multi page site gives you more room to rank for different services.
If you sell online or need bookings, the Advanced Website from $3300 is the better starting point. You can read more on my ecommerce websites page. My blog post on how much a website costs in Bundaberg breaks the numbers down further.
Redesign with SEO in mind
If you have a site that ranks for a few things already, I am careful not to throw that away. A website redesign keeps the pages and URLs that earn traffic, improves the ones that do not and adds what is missing.
Before anything changes I take a snapshot of your current rankings and traffic. That way you can see that the new site is doing better, not just looking better.
Common questions about doing both at once

Website Design Bundaberg builds WordPress websites with SEO planned in from the start, with Nick handling both the build and the ongoing SEO. Keyword research shapes the page plan before any design happens. Once the site launches, a monthly SEO plan can carry the work on without a handover to someone new who has to learn the site from scratch.
There is no special bundle price for web design and SEO in Bundaberg with me. You pay the normal $2200 for a Complete Website and the normal monthly price for your chosen SEO plan, starting at $279. The real saving is not having to rebuild or rewrite a site later because it was never planned to rank.
A new multi page website with SEO in Bundaberg costs $2200 for the Complete Website plus a monthly SEO plan from $279, all including GST. The website includes a free first year of WordPress maintenance. Domain and hosting are extra. My blog post on how much a website costs in Bundaberg breaks this down further.
You do not have to keep paying for SEO after your Bundaberg website launches, because every SEO plan is month to month. Plenty of businesses run SEO for six to twelve months while rankings build. After that some drop back to WordPress maintenance only, which starts at $19 a month.
A brand new website in Bundaberg will not usually rank for competitive searches straight away. A well planned site gives Google clear signals from day one, with clean titles, schema markup and fast pages. Even so, most local businesses need a few months of ongoing SEO work before they reach page one for their main services.
You can update your own website after it is built because every site I make uses WordPress and Elementor with full access. Changing text, swapping photos or adding a new service page is straightforward once you have had a quick walkthrough. If you would rather not, my website updates service can handle changes for you.
A Bundaberg business should only redesign its website before starting SEO if the current site is slow, outdated or hard to edit. If the site is in good shape, an SEO plan on its own is usually better value. Before any website redesign I record current rankings so nothing that already works gets lost.
Tell me about your business and the areas you service. I will come back with a page plan, a price for the build and my honest suggestion on which SEO plan fits.
