Fortnight Sites
Small business web design, Melbourne

A proper website for your business, live in a fortnight.

  • Fixed price quoted upfront
  • Standard websites live in 14 days
  • Melbourne based
  • Domain and launch handled
What I build

The things a small business actually needs online.

Website design and development for small businesses, from a simple site to bookings and payments. I use professional AI development tools to build faster and keep the price fixed. Every site is scoped, checked, tested and launched by me.

A website that brings in work

A clean site that says what you do, shows your work, and makes it easy to call or book. Looks right on a phone, because that's where your customers are. Websites for tradies.

Bookings, forms and payments

Online bookings, quote requests, enquiry forms that land in your inbox, taking payments. The bits that save you the back-and-forth. Websites with bookings and payments.

Small apps and internal tools

When a spreadsheet stops being enough. A staff login, a customer portal, a tool that does the thing you're currently doing by hand. Small business apps and portals.

Live work

Products and tools I have built.

These are my own products and a client tool, not small-business websites. They are here to show the technical range behind a Fortnight Sites build: accounts, payments, databases and automation, not just pages.

Blinker

An Australian app that lets drivers send an anonymous message to any licence plate. I built and shipped the whole thing: the mobile app, the backend with AI moderation and identity verification, subscriptions, and the marketing site with its own blog.

StackFall Arena

A free online multiplayer game with accounts, live matches between players, ranked leaderboards and password reset by email. It runs entirely in the browser, on infrastructure that costs almost nothing to keep up.

Recruitment agency portal

An internal tool for a Melbourne recruitment agency, built on the Microsoft 365 they already pay for. It drafts candidate summaries and reference checks, tracks approvals, and delivers finished documents to clients. What used to take an hour per candidate now takes minutes.

A proper website, live in a fortnight, at a price you knew before we started.

How it works

Fourteen days, start to live.

The highlighted days are the ones you'll hear from me. Tap one to see what happens.

Day 1 · We talk

A 20-minute call or a coffee. What you do, who your customers are, what the site needs to achieve. You get a fixed quote the same day.

Day 2 · Your content

Logo, photos, the words you want, any logins. I send a short checklist. The fortnight starts when it's all in.

Day 4 · First version

A real site at a real address, on your phone, within days. Not a mock-up.

Day 5 · Your changes, round one

Round one. Tell me what's wrong, what's missing and what you'd move. One list, and I get to work.

Day 8 · Second version

Your changes made and the rough edges gone. This is close to what goes live.

Day 9 · Your changes, round two

Round two, and the last look. Small tweaks to words, photos and layout. Two rounds are included.

Day 14 · Live

Domain, hosting and launch, all handled. If you want, I keep it running and make changes for a small monthly fee.

A fortnight means two weeks from the day your content arrives, not from the day you accept the quote. This is the timeline for a standard website. It assumes your content is in by day 2 and your changes come back within a day or two. Bigger builds get their own timeline in the quote.

Pricing

Straightforward prices, quoted up front.

Keep it running

$80 + GST a month
  • Hosting and domain included
  • Up to 30 minutes of text, photo, price and hours changes a month
  • Backups and security updates
  • I fix it when it breaks
  • No lock-in, 30 days' notice, no exit fee

Extra changes are $100 + GST an hour. New pages and new features are quoted separately. End the plan with 30 days' notice and I hand over the site files and the domain within 14 days.

See what a small business website costs, with everything that's included and what costs extra.

Apps and internal tools are quoted and timed per job after we talk, usually $3,000 to $10,000 + GST depending on what they need to do.

When your final payment clears, the website, its content and its design are yours, and the domain is registered in your name. If you would rather not take the monthly plan, I hand over the files and the domain at launch and help you set up hosting elsewhere.

About

I use modern tools to deliver faster, but the responsibility stays with me.

Fortnight Sites is run by me, Jordan. I use professional AI development tools to build websites and small applications faster, while personally handling the scoping, design direction, testing, launch and ongoing support. You are never passed between salespeople, designers and developers.

My background combines automation engineering with ten years of recruitment, where understanding what people actually need was the job. If a project requires a larger development team or specialist engineering, I will say so before taking it on.

Good fit Tradies, cafés and restaurants, clinics, accountants, bookkeepers and coaches, clubs, consultants, anyone with no website or one they're embarrassed by. Not a fit Big e-commerce catalogues, enterprise systems, anything needing a team on call around the clock, or anything that needs a larger development team. I will say so up front and point you to someone better suited.
