You don't need a big-agency site or a big-agency bill. You need one that loads fast, says what you do, and turns a visitor into an enquiry — three fixed packages, quoted upfront, built for a small business budget.
Whale Digital Consulting is a Melbourne Bayside web design and AI automation studio, founded in 2026, offering small business websites in three fixed packages — A$499, A$1,699 and A$4,800 — quoted upfront, with free hosting and no lock-in.
You're running the whole show — sales, service, the books. The website's been 'good enough' for years, quietly losing you enquiries to competitors who look sharper online.
A clean, fast site that does the heavy lifting: clear on what you do, easy to contact, found on Google — without the bloat or the lock-in a big agency sells you.
More enquiries from the same traffic, and a site you can run yourself. Your hardest-working staff member, working while you sleep.
A visitor knows what you offer and how to contact you in five seconds — not after scrolling a brochure.
On-page SEO and a Google Business Profile so nearby customers find you — without paying for ads forever.
Edit it yourself, free hosting, no lock-in. No $300/month builder holding your site hostage.
Fast, findable, and built to convert — the three things a small business site has to do, without the agency price tag.
A sharp single-page site that says what you do, where you are, and how to get in touch. Live fast, yours outright, free hosting.
Up to five custom pages you edit yourself, with SEO, Google Search Console, a reviews widget and AI visibility (AEO) built in. Our most popular package.
Everything in Professional plus custom features — bookings, ordering, member areas — scoped to exactly what your business needs.
Every package is a fixed price quoted upfront — no hourly surprises, no lock-in. Not sure which fits? Tell us what you need and we'll tell you straight, including what's not worth paying for.
Plumbers, electricians, builders — tap-to-call, job photos, a quote form that works after hours.
Trust-first sites for firms that sell expertise — compliant copy, secure enquiries.
AHPRA-compliant sites with online booking that catches patients after hours.
Menus that load, photos that sell, booking or ordering wired straight in.
Small business web design covers every industry — these are just the ones we get asked about most.
One site, your business, your suburb — set up to show up when nearby customers search for what you do.
Ecommerce website design in Melbourne, built to sell — not just to look nice. Plenty of stores look fine and sell nothing; the difference isn't the theme, it's making it fast, findable, and dead simple to check out.
When someone nearby searches for what you do, you want to be the name they see first — in the map, in the results, in the AI answer. That's local SEO Melbourne — the SEO most small businesses actually need, done properly.
Anyone can sell you a cheap website. The trap is the cheap ones that bring zero customers — then cost you more in lost work than a good one ever would.
A customer's standing in their kitchen with a burst pipe. They tap the first tradie whose site loads, looks legit, and shows a number. If that's not you, it's the bloke down the road.
Whale AI in One is a monthly system for Melbourne and Australian small businesses, currently doing three jobs end-to-end: taking and managing bookings, turning a photo of a receipt into a bookkeeping entry, and turning your own notes into a live operations dashboard. Everything else is on the roadmap — marked clearly below, so you're not guessing what you're paying for.
Content marketing usually means a separate agency, a separate retainer, content that lives on someone else's blog. Ours publishes straight to your own site — 2–4 new pieces a month that feed the SEO and AI-visibility work you're already paying for, not a second thing to manage.
