Why your website matters

A website is your best salesperson, if it is built properly

Most people in the Illawarra check a business online before they call. They search on their phone, tap the first few results, and decide in seconds whether you look trustworthy, local and easy to deal with. A slow, dated or confusing website sends them straight to the next result, even if your work is better.

Good web design in Wollongong is not about fancy effects. It is about clear service pages, a fast load on mobile data, your phone number and enquiry form one tap away, real photos and reviews, and pages that answer the questions customers actually ask. That is what turns a visit into a call.

Every OCCO website is built with SEO in mind from the start: proper page titles and headings, a page for each service and the suburbs you cover, schema markup so Google understands your business, and a structure that makes it easy to grow with new pages later. Pair it with our SEO services and your new site becomes the base for page-one rankings.

You deal directly with the people designing and building your site, here in Wollongong. No templates sold as custom work, no hidden extras, and you own your website and domain at the end.

What's included

Everything a business website needs to win enquiries

01

Custom design

A design made for your business and your customers, not a generic template, with your branding, photos and tone of voice.

02

Mobile-first & responsive

Designed for phones first, where most local searches happen, and tested on tablets and desktops too.

03

SEO setup built in

Page titles, headings, meta descriptions, schema markup, a sitemap and Google Search Console set up before launch.

04

Service & suburb pages

Clear pages for each service and the areas you cover, so you can rank for searches like "electrician Shellharbour".

05

Enquiry forms & booking

Forms, click-to-call buttons and booking options placed where visitors are ready to act, with enquiries sent straight to your inbox.

Website checklist

What a high-converting local website has

Whether we build it or not, this is what we check on every Wollongong business website. See our full website design checklist for more detail.

  • Your phone number and a click-to-call button at the top of every page on mobile
  • A clear headline that says what you do and where, e.g. "Plumber in Wollongong and the northern suburbs"
  • A separate page for each main service, not one long page listing everything
  • Real photos of your team, your work and your premises, not only stock images
  • Google reviews and testimonials near your enquiry buttons
  • A short enquiry form (name, phone, what they need), not ten fields
  • Fast loading on mobile data, with images compressed and nothing heavy at the top
  • Your business name, address and phone written exactly the same as on your Google Business Profile
Websites for Illawarra businesses

Built around how your customers search

Tradies & home services

Service and suburb pages, emergency call buttons and quote forms for plumbers, electricians, builders and landscapers.

Health & allied health

Online booking, practitioner profiles and treatment pages that answer patient questions before they call.

Hospitality & tourism

Menus, bookings, events and photos that look great on a phone, for cafés, restaurants, clubs and accommodation.

Professional services

Trust-building pages for law firms, accountants and real estate agents, with clear calls to book a consultation.

Retail & eCommerce

Online stores with product and category pages, payments and shipping, plus eCommerce SEO to get found.

New businesses

Starting out? Our Business Setup package includes your logo, website and Google profile.

Redesigns & migrations

Already have a website?

You might not need a brand new site. Sometimes a faster theme, better service pages and clearer calls to action are enough. We will tell you honestly whether an update or a rebuild is the better spend.

If you do move to a new site, we handle the migration carefully: every old page that matters is redirected to its new address, so you keep the Google rankings and links you have already earned. Moving a website without redirects is one of the most common ways local businesses lose their rankings overnight.

FAQs

Questions about web design in Wollongong

How much does a website cost in Wollongong?

Our websites start from $2,490 for a Starter site (up to 5 pages), $4,990 for a Business site (up to 15 pages with service and suburb pages, blog and booking) and $7,990 for an eCommerce store. All prices exclude GST, and an ongoing care plan starts from $79 a month.

How long does it take to build a website?

It depends on the size of the site and how quickly content and feedback come back. A small business website usually takes a few weeks from the first chat to launch, and we agree a timeline with you before we start.

What does web design in Wollongong involve?

It starts with a free chat about your business, customers and goals. We plan the pages you need, design the look for you to review, build the site, write or polish the content, set up SEO, forms and tracking, test it on phones and computers, then launch it and connect Google Search Console and Analytics.

What SEO is included with a new website?

Every site includes SEO setup: unique page titles and meta descriptions, one clear heading per page, a page for each main service, schema markup, an XML sitemap, compressed images for fast loading and Google Search Console. Redirects from your old pages are included when we replace an existing site. For ongoing rankings and new content, you can add one of our SEO plans from $690 a month.

Will my website be mobile friendly?

Yes. Every site is designed mobile-first, because most local searches happen on phones, then tested on tablets and desktops. Phone numbers are click-to-call, buttons are easy to tap and pages load quickly on mobile data.

How can a website help my service business get more leads?

A good website turns visitors into enquiries: a clear headline saying what you do and where, your phone number one tap away, a short quote or booking form on every page, real photos and Google reviews, and service and suburb pages that show up on Google. Add an AI chat assistant and instant lead replies, and fewer enquiries slip through the cracks.

Can I update the website myself?

Yes. We can build on an easy-to-edit platform and show you how to change text, photos, prices and blog posts. If you would rather not, our team can make updates for you.

Do you provide hosting and ongoing support?

Yes. We look after web hosting, domain names, website security and business email setup, and offer ongoing support through a care plan from $79 a month (ex GST). We confirm exactly what your care plan covers when we quote.

Do I own my website and domain?

Yes. Your domain, your content and your website are yours. If you ever move on, we hand everything over.

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

Often, yes. We will look at your current site and tell you honestly whether an update or a rebuild is better value.

Do you build WordPress and Shopify websites?

Yes. We choose the platform that suits your business, including WordPress and Shopify, and set it up so you can update it yourself if you want to.

Can you write the content for my website?

Yes. SEO-ready copywriting is part of our Business website package, and we can write or polish the words for any site.
