We believe that DESIGN is the ultimate competitive advantage for anyone looking to build a successful BRAND or BUSINESS. Investing in your WEBSITE and hiring a designer, rather than doing a DIY job will set you apart from competitors.
What’s the process of building a website with Basic Black Creative?
A website design and build is a two step process, this includes:
DESIGN
This process involves something we call web brand sheets - these showcase the design, look and feel of 5 pages of your website. You can take a look at some examples of them here. We construct web brand sheets so that you know exactly what your pages will look like prior to the build itself. Any pages that exceed the 5 included page designs will be in keeping with the example pages, or you can request to see full designs of all pages on your website at an additional cost. What sets us apart at Basic Black Creative are our stylistic designs and approach to web design itself. We’re not creating a run of the mill website that looks clunky and dated… we’re creating a beautiful showcase of your brand that your clients will remember.
THE BUILD ITSELF
We build all our websites on Squarespace, which is an easy to use platform that you can add to and update once we have created your custom design. Input wise, you simply need to give us imagery you'd like featured (We can find additional royalty free ones at no extra cost), and any of the website copy in a word doc by page to pop into the website itself. Our basic websites include 5 pages; Home, About, Services, Blog and Contact. We can easily create shop fronts and links to / integrations with bookings systems. Please note that hosting is not included in the build cost, you would need to jump on a plan with Squarespace - Squarespace looks after all the security and automatic plugin updates for you, making it secure and easy to use. There is more information on that here.

Web Design & Build
WHY SQUARESPACE?
Squarespace is extremely easy to use in the back end. You can add content easily once we are complete with your custom design. It’s also extremely secure in comparison to something like Wordpress. Wordpress plugins require updates and without them you can create loop holes for hackers to take over and change your website. Squarespace does ALL the updates for you automatically. We’ve been working in Squarespace for 5 years now and haven’t had a single website fall down or have security issues. Most of all, we’re all about creating something really beautiful to showcase your brand that you can easily update and add to when needed. We also offer an annual refresh at a fraction of the initial build cost to keep your website and SEO up to date and looking fab!
TALK MONEY TO ME
EVERY website is different. Therefore there is no one size fits all cost price. Our website build’s start at $3200.00 AUD. You will be given an accurate quote to suit your needs. Ready to get started? Start by filling out brand form and our Creative Director Lizzy will be in touch.
