“We probably got no more than 3 enquiries from our old website over 2 years. We would rely on word of mouth and Hi Pages for our work. In the second month of Mike’s website being live, we’ve had 23 enquiries and we’re currently in the process of quoting 11 of them. The difference has seriously been massive.”

Gold Coast schools, colleges and education providers

School Website Design for Gold Coast, QLD

Gold Coast families relocate often, so schools constantly need to make a first impression on parents who have only just arrived.

Your website explains who you are, what your fees are and how to enrol, without the jargon that makes most school sites hard going.

Why schools, colleges and education providers need a proper site

Parents judge a school by its website long before they visit

Two very different people use a school website: a parent deciding where to enrol, and a current parent hunting for a form, a date or a newsletter at 9pm. A good school site serves both without either getting lost.

  • Enrolment made obvious

    Enrolment steps, key dates and a tour booking sit where prospective families can see them, instead of three clicks deep in a PDF.

  • Current parents find things fast

    Term dates, bell times, uniform lists, fees, newsletters and permission forms are laid out plainly, which cuts the phone calls to your front office.

  • Works on the phone in the car line

    Almost every parent visit is on a phone. Your site loads immediately and stays readable at that size, tables and calendars included.

  • Fully managed by one person

    Hosting, domain, security, maintenance and a monthly update for $45/week — so newsletters, dates and staff changes don't pile up unpublished.

Who builds it

Built by Mike. Not Outsourced.

I'm Mike. I design and build every website myself from the Gold Coast — no agency, no offshore team, no account managers. The person you talk to is the person doing the work.

I've worked with some of the world's leading marketing companies, which taught me plenty about what actually works online and what is just expensive noise. That's the thinking that goes into every school website I build.

Straight answer

How Can I Offer This for $45 a Week?

There is no large agency or sales team sitting between you and the person building your website. You deal directly with Mike, start to finish.

The build process is streamlined and the package is focused, so the money goes into the website rather than the overhead around it. These are properly built, professional websites — the model is simply leaner.

Built With Strong SEO Foundations

Every school website is built so Google can crawl it, read it and understand what your business does and where it works. Nobody legitimate can promise a position in the results, so I won't — but the foundations are done properly on every build.

For businesses wanting to invest further in organic Google visibility, tailored SEO services are also available.

  • Clear page structure
  • Dedicated service pages
  • Page titles written for real searches
  • Metadata on every page
  • Sensible heading structure
  • Internal linking between pages
  • Mobile-friendly layouts
  • Search-friendly content structure

Why it matters

Look Better Than Your Competitors

Customers rarely contact the first school they find. They open a few, compare what they see, and rule out the ones that look unfinished or hard to deal with.

A better website can make your business look like a much bigger business.
