Simple,
Practical, Professional Web Design in Brisbane
You may be thinking this is quite a simple looking website
from someone who says he does "web design". There's nothing
particularly fancy about it. No super snazzy graphics, animations or flash video and
so on.
Well, I'm not trying to compete with the typical website graphic designer. I'm simply a small business owner providing an alternative approach to web design in Brisbane for
other typical one or two person small businesses - particularly home-based businesses - who want an easy, cost effective solution.
Even so, the site design is practical and
suits many small business owners ...

The design of this "Small Business Web Design Brisbane" site is an example of the sort of design you could have for
your own home-based business very quickly and at a very
affordable
investment. That's precisely why this website looks this
way.
Of course even though my web design service is based in Brisbane, it isn't just provided to businesses looking for a website designer in Brisbane. I can provide these services to
small or home-based businesses anywhere in Australia.
I've thought about what you'd want in a small business web design. The typical Aussie isn't pretentious, so you want something clean, clear and practical. No frills ... Simple.
As long as the message is delivered, that's all that's truly important.

Your first website - a "web brochure" |
 |
|
Every business can benefit from an Internet presence. It can give a real boost to your business image and credibility, but many don't need or can't justify the cost
of a website with all the "bells and whistles" for their first website ... particularly very small home-based businesses.
You don't want to spend a lot and you want to know what to expect with cost so it doesn't get out of control as the site is being built.
So, that's exactly what I give you in my "Small Business Web Design Brisbane" service.
Your website can be built for you at a
very low
investment ...
just $350 instead of thousands.

I call these websites "web brochures".
|
|
|
What exactly do I mean by a "web brochure"? |
|
|
By "web brochure" what I'm referring to is a one page web presence providing basic information about your business, just like a printed brochure would do.
You can include things like the benefits of dealing with your business, an overview of the products and services you offer, you or your business's background, and your contact
details. It's designed to be around 700-800 words only.
It uses a standardised page template (view
one of the template styles in a new window here), but you're able to customise the main colours used on
the page so they closely reflect the colours used in your business.
In fact, to see exactly what you can do to
customise a web brochure site you can visit
www.localaussie.biz/preview and play around with
colour combinations and effects for free for as long as you
like,
as well as trying out different text styles and sizes. Online
help is available there too.
When you're happy with what you create there, after clicking
"Update Page" you have the option to simply complete your details at the top of that page
and click "Submit". That sends your final preferences
directly to me automatically so it can form the basis for
your website should you decide to go ahead. There's
absolutely no
obligation. Why not go there now and just have fun with it.
A web brochure can include
two images, one of which could of course
be your logo. Other images and text can also be added by arrangement. Take a it can form the basis for

"I have had such a good
response since it went online and wish I had acted
sooner in getting one made."
- Kieran
"Thank you so much for creating a professional
but affordable web brochure to assist in advertising
my business. I am thrilled with the result!"
- Kelly
"At
first the whole idea of creating a web brochure was
a very daunting task, but I have to say Darryl that
you made the whole process effortless."
- Ann
"I would not hesitate to recommend Insight
Resources, as Darryl had my website up and running
in no time and was always aware of keeping my costs
down to a minimum." - Carolyn
"I strongly recommend Darryl to you and found him
easy to deal with, responsive and gives you a result
you can bank on!" - Bryan
"We have had response from the site already so the meagre amount spent to get us up and running has been returned well and truly."
- Trevor

plus others here.) |
Some website designers suggest a web brochure could be multiple information pages linked together, but I
prefer to use the term "web brochure" to draw a distinction between a multi-page website and a single information page.
A web brochure like this is a very cost effective way to get your first business website. Once your web page has been created it will then only cost you "small change" following
that to make it available on the Internet (as low as $6.60 a month).

Are you thinking it may be too hard for you?
Or maybe that you don't need a website yet? |
|
 |
Perhaps you've thought it might be nice to be a part of what's happening on the Internet, but it seemed too hard, or too expensive, or you just didn't
know where to start?
Well I'll guide you step by step all the way, and you might be surprised to find how easy it is to get started with your own Internet presence right away.

| "Not being
all that computer literate, I found
(Darryl's) layout and
directions very easy to follow, allowing me the
luxury of composing my own content. He was always
professional, obliging and very patient, and believe
me I put him to the test."

In reality, in the 21st century I believe we're past it
being "nice" for a business to have its own Internet
presence - it's genuinely becoming a necessity.
My Brisbane-based small business website design service takes your local business to the web without you having to outlay many hundreds of dollars, or even thousands, to
have a website built, spending hours working with website designers, and learning about websites and the Internet.
Over time you may want to expand your web brochure into a larger multi-page website. That's fine too. Your one page site can grow into a fully linked, multiple page website at
any time if/when you're ready. And while keeping it simple, but eye-catching and effective, you'll be able to keep your costs down significantly.

The BENEFITS of a web brochure |
|
- A web brochure is a simple, easy, and low cost way for many small local businesses to have their own Internet presence. When/if you later feel you want to have a full
website built, the information on the web brochure can act as the starting point for what will go in to the final website, whether or not you continue to use the "Small Business
Web Design Brisbane" service.
- In the meantime you can promote the web brochure's address as your web address: you can put it on business cards, direct people to it verbally, put it on your
letterhead, add it to the end of emails and promotional literature, place it in advertisements and so on. Then you have the credibility of an Internet address, but without much
of the cost, lost time, and hassle.
- There's no need to hire a specialist graphic designer/developer or learn how to create a website on your own.
- Avoid the expense of printing and handing out multi-coloured glossy brochures to your potential customers. Instead simply drive potential customers to your online
brochure to tell them about your business.
- You can add extra useful features in too, like your latest business or industry news, and current special offers. These things change too regularly for a paper
brochure, but the Internet is perfect for them.
- If you want to change something in a web brochure it's much simpler and cheaper than reprinting thousands of colour brochures.

Professional looking business email addresses |
|
|
|
Did you realise that even without a website, you can still boost your business image simply by arranging professional looking email addresses
based on your business name, such as yourname@yourbusiness.com.au?
My "Small Business Website Design" service can help you with this too.
What could you gain from using a different email address? More business!
That's right. If you're currently using a free email address at hotmail.com, yahoo.com, gmail.com or similar for your business, you may actually be losing business.
