Brisbane web studio · working Australia-wide
We build the site, then we keep it running.
Sites Crafted is a Brisbane web design studio inside Foot Print IT Services Pty Ltd. We build websites from $500 ex GST on WordPress, Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix, Squarespace, Framer and GoHighLevel, and we keep running the ones we build. Seventeen live Australian sites are listed on our work page.
Most studios hand a site over at launch and you never hear from them again. Seventeen of the sites we have built are still ours to look after, and every one of them is on this page.
The work
Seventeen live sites, and we still run all of them.
Every figure on these cards was measured from that site’s own published sitemap on 2026-08-20. None of it is estimated.
What we build on
Eight platforms. We pick, and we say why.
There is no single right platform, and a studio that only builds on one will tell you theirs is it. These are the eight we use and what each is actually good at.
WordPress
The platform we build on most, and the one every site in our portfolio runs on.
Shopify
Hosted e-commerce with the payment, shipping and tax side already solved.
WooCommerce
E-commerce inside WordPress, when the shop is part of a bigger site.
Squarespace
Design-led and self-manageable, for a small site you want to edit yourself.
Wix
Quick to stand up and easy to hand over, if that is what the job needs.
GoHighLevel
Funnels, CRM and follow-up in one place, for businesses selling on the phone.
Framer
Design-tool-native sites that publish straight from the canvas.
AI automation
The repetitive work behind the site handed to something that never forgets to do it.
How a build runs
Four steps, and none of them is a discovery workshop.
We ask what it has to do
Not what you want it to look like — what job the site has to do. Take a booking, get a call, sell a thing, prove you are real.
We write it before we design it
Copy comes from what you already say to customers, not from the words every agency site uses. Design follows the copy, not the other way round.
We build it and test it on a phone
Hand-built on the platform that suits the job. Checked on real handsets, not just a narrow browser window.
We keep it running
Updates, backups, uptime and someone to call. This is the half most builds skip, and it is why the sites above are still here.
Pricing
Fixed prices, published, before you call.
Three sizes cover most small-business sites. Anything past them is quoted on scope, because a number invented before we understand the job is not a price.

Where we work
Brisbane first, then everywhere else.
One office, in Brisbane City. Everywhere else is remote, which is how most of these projects ran anyway.
Frequently asked questions
What does a website cost?
Up to three pages is $500 ex GST, up to ten pages is $1,000 and up to twenty-five is $2,500. Every price is fixed and quoted before work starts. E-commerce, GoHighLevel and anything larger is quoted on scope. Full pricing.
Which platform will you build on?
Whichever suits the job. WordPress most often, because it is the one you can move somewhere else later. Shopify or WooCommerce if you are selling, GoHighLevel if you live on the phone, Wix or Squarespace if you want to edit it yourself, Framer if the site is part of the pitch.
Do I own the site?
Yes. The site, the domain, the content and the hosting account are yours. On WordPress you can take the whole thing to another host or another developer whenever you like. On Wix, Squarespace and Framer the site lives on that platform — we will tell you that before you start rather than after.
How long does it take?
About a week for a three-page site, two to three weeks for up to ten pages, three to five for a larger build. The thing that actually sets the pace is how quickly content and photos come back, which is why we ask for them first.
Do you work outside Brisbane?
Yes. Brisbane is home and the only city where we have an office, but most projects run over email and video and we build for businesses across Australia. There are location pages for eighteen cities.
