Web design studio · based on the Sunshine Coast

Websites that make small businesses look the part.

Cafes, trades, mechanics, agents and online stores all need the same thing: a site that loads fast, reads clearly, and turns a visitor into a customer. That is what I build, without the agency price tag.

Founding offer: my first 3 clients pay $375, not $699

Why work with me

Big agency quality, small business price

You deal with me directly

The person you talk to is the person building your site. No account managers in between.

A clear, fixed price

You know the cost before I start. No surprise invoices halfway through the job.

Built for phones first

Most of your customers will find you on a phone, so that is where your site has to work hardest.

You own everything

The files are yours. If you ever want to move host or change designer, nothing is locked away.

53%

How it works

Simple on purpose

You will always know what happens next.

01

A quick chat

We talk about your business, your customers, and what the site needs to do. No jargon, no pressure.

02

Design and build

You see the design early and get revisions along the way, so nothing lands as a surprise.

03

Launch and support

The site goes live on your own domain. On a Care plan it keeps improving every month after that.

Most sites are live in about a week

From the moment you give the go ahead, not months of back and forth. If you need it sooner, just ask.

About me

Hi, I'm Bailey. I build the sites myself.

I am a freelance web designer based on the Sunshine Coast, and I work with small businesses one on one. When you hire me you deal with the person actually doing the work, not a sales team and not a queue of account managers.

I started Coastal WebX because good web design felt out of reach for a lot of small businesses. Agencies quote many thousands of dollars and long timelines for what is often a simple, well built site. I wanted to offer that same quality at a price a cafe, a sparky or a sole trader can actually say yes to.

Every site is designed from scratch around your business, tested on phones, tablets and laptops, and made to be fast and easy for your customers to use. If something needs changing after launch, you can just send me a message.

The guarantee

Unlimited revisions until you are genuinely happy with the design, not just "good enough."

No lock in contracts, no jargon, and no surprise invoices. Cancel a Care plan any time and keep every file.

Questions

Before you get in touch

Are the prices on this page fixed?
The price we agree on before I start is the price you pay, locked in. The prices listed on this page are current and may change over time as the business grows. Need something beyond the package, like an additional page, a logo tidy up or help getting set up on Google? Just ask and I will quote it upfront.
Why is the founding rate so much cheaper?
Because I'm openly building my portfolio. My first 3 clients get the full $699 build for $375. In exchange I ask for an honest Google review and permission to show your finished site in my portfolio. Same site, same care, same guarantee. Once those spots are gone, the price is $699.
What if I don't like the design?
You will see the design before anything is finalised, and revisions are unlimited until you are happy. Nothing gets locked in without your sign off.
Do I need to know anything technical?
No. That is the whole point of hiring someone to do this for you. You tell me about your business in plain English and I handle everything technical.
What happens with hosting and domain costs?
On The Website plan you can host the files anywhere you like, and I can point you to a cheap or free option. On The Website + Care plan, hosting, domain guidance and security are handled for you as part of the monthly fee.
Can I update the site myself later?
If you are comfortable with basic tools, yes. If not, that is what the Care plan is for: send a message and changes get made for you, usually the same day.
I already have a website, why would I switch?
Most older sites are slow on mobile, hard to find on Google, or just do not reflect the business anymore. Send me your address through the form below and I will take a free look. If it checks out fine, I will tell you so, no pressure to change a thing.
How much input do I need to give?
As much or as little as you like. A short chat about your business is enough to get started. Some clients send a paragraph, others send a full brief.
