Website design and development


Getting the website built should be the easy part. Working out what it needs to say, show and do is where most business owners get stuck.

Creative Baguette handles the structure, copy, design and tech, with one person responsible from the first conversation through to launch.

You bring what you have. Rough notes, old copy, scattered photos, screenshots, half-formed ideas. We shape the rest into a website people can understand and trust.

You talk. We build. You look legit.

Village Pilates website, designed and built by Creative Baguette

/ Village Pilates, one of ours

Before a website can generate an enquiry, it has to make someone feel sure.

Someone hears about you through a referral, Google, Instagram or a conversation. Then they look you up.

In a few seconds, they decide whether what they see matches what they heard. Does the business feel established? Can they understand what it does? Does it look like someone they would trust with their time, money or reputation?

Our job is to make that moment go your way.

Creative Baguette Made My Vision Even Better!

I could not be happier with my website! Manon immediately understood the look and feel I wanted. She took my ideas and made them even better.

Creative Baguette held my hand throughout the process and were very patient with my wish to experiment with things.

What is included

Structure
and strategy

Fewer pages, clearer ones

We work out what pages you actually need, what each page needs to achieve, and how visitors should move through the site. Usually fewer pages than you think. Just clearer ones.

Copy written
for you

You talk. We write.

No blank-page homework. No three-week delay while you try to describe your business in a way that sounds like you. We take what you know and turn it into clear, confident copy your clients can understand.

Design around
your business

Recognisably yours

Your website should feel like your business, not like your content was squeezed into someone else’s layout. We create something clear, polished and recognisably yours.

No logo yet? We’ll design a simple, clean text-based mark for free so you can launch looking sharp. A full brand and logo is a separate project when you’re ready.

Tech, SEO
and launch

Ready from day one

Your website is built with modern, lightweight technology for speed, security and straightforward ownership. It is mobile-first, search-ready and tested before launch. You own the finished website and its files outright.

How it works

1/

Start with a free 20-minute chat

Tell us what is going on, what you have already, and what you need the website to do.

No brief. No final copy. No knowing the technical answer.

2/

One focused project meeting

Once you decide to go ahead, we work through the business, the audience, the services and the practical details. Then we build the first version.

You usually see it within one week.

3/

Refine, launch and keep it working

You review the first version. We refine it together, test it and get it ready to launch. We keep refining until you’re happy. We do not go live until you are.

Afterwards, we keep it hosted, maintained and updated so it does not quietly become another job on your list.

Websites we’ve built

Clear starting points before we talk details.

  • Focused landing pages start from $700.
  • Complete small-business websites commonly sit between $1,900 and $3,800.
  • Larger, content-heavy or specialist websites are quoted after a short conversation.
  • Care plans from $97/month after launch.

The price stays sensible because one person owns the project from structure to launch. You are not paying for layers of account management.

If your project needs e-commerce, complex integrations or custom functionality, we flag that before anything starts. No surprise invoices. No mysterious “phase two” appearing after you have committed.

Small business website packages

People search for website packages, so here they are. Honestly, it is one process, sized to fit. Every package includes the same structure, copywriting, design and launch care described above. What changes is how much website your business actually needs.

Landing page
package

From $700

One sharp page that says who you are, what you do, where, and how to reach you. Right for sole traders, new businesses and campaigns. Not a cut-down website. A right-sized one.

Full website
package

$1,900 to $3,800 for most projects

A complete small business website: the pages you need, each one written and designed to do a job, mobile-first and search-ready. This is what most clients choose.

Website + care
package

Build + from $97/month

Either build above, then we keep it hosted, secure, backed up and updated so you never think about it again. Small content updates included. See what care plans cover.

When does a website pay for itself?

Simple arithmetic, not a sales pitch. Put in your own numbers.

This is maths, not a promise. It shows what the website costs in your own work, not a prediction of what it will bring in.

Website design FAQs

How much does a website cost?

Focused landing pages start from $700. Complete small-business websites commonly sit between $1,900 and $3,800. Larger or more complex projects are quoted after a short conversation.

You will know the price before work starts.

How long does it take?

Most projects are live within one to three weeks, depending on the size of the website and how quickly feedback comes back.

You usually see the first version within one week of the focused project meeting.

How many rounds of changes do I get?

As many as it takes.

We refine the website with you until you’re happy. We do not go live until you are.

Do I need to have my copy and photos ready?

No.

Send what you have. Rough notes, old website copy, phone photos, screenshots, brochures or half-finished documents are all useful.

We shape the structure, write the copy and work out what is missing.

Can you redesign my current website?

Yes.

Sometimes the existing website has useful content or search visibility worth keeping. Sometimes it needs a clean rebuild.

We will tell you honestly which option makes sense.

What do you build with?

We use modern, lightweight web technology chosen for speed, security and straightforward ownership.

You own the finished website and its files outright.

Do I own my website?

Yes. Always.

If you ever decide to move elsewhere, you take the website and its files with you.

No hostage situations.

Your website does not need to become a six-month project.

Start with a 20-minute conversation. Tell us what is going on and we will help you work out the clearest next step.

Free 20-minute chat. No pressure, no perfect brief needed.
