Joe, the designer behind YaMs Studio
JoeDesigner and builder, Adelaide

Hi, I'm Joe

I'm a web designer in Adelaide. By day I'm the practice manager at a respiratory physiotherapy clinic, so I know what it takes for a website to bring in real bookings, not just look nice.

I designed and built that clinic's website, and I've built three products of my own: Macro Menu, Arca and Inkognito. Every site I take on, I design and build myself, and I read every application myself.

YaMs is my handle, the name I've gone by online. The studio is just me, so you always deal with the person doing the work.

  • How fast it loads on a phone
  • Whether visitors can quickly find how to contact you
  • What Google can read about your business

Not sure which one? Pick Launch if one clear page does the job, Studio if you need several pages or online enquiries, and Custom if the site has to connect to other software. Or choose "Not sure" in the application and I'll help you decide.

How a project runs

  1. ApplyA short form that takes about two minutes.
  2. QuoteI reply, we have a short chat, and you get a clear price.
  3. BuildI design and build it, and you see it before it goes live.
  4. LaunchChecked on phone and desktop, then live.

What to have ready

None of this has to be ready to apply. Having it to hand just makes your quote quicker and your site faster to build.

Hosting and monthly care

Your website doesn't stop at launch. Here is how it works, in order. Only step 1 is needed. Steps 2 and 3 are optional extras you can add whenever you like.

  1. 1Required

    Build your site

    I design and build your website. This is the standard fee for your package.

    You payOnce, the package price

    • The design and the build
    • Made for phones first
    • Launched and checked

    Choose this to get a new site or a redesign.

    See the packages
  2. 2Optional

    Host it with me

    I keep your finished site online, so you never have to think about servers.

    You payAgreed with your quote

    • One person to ask if something's wrong
    • Your site stays fast and online
    • Already have hosting? That's fine too

    Choose this if you'd rather not manage hosting yourself.

  3. 3Optional, monthly

    Monthly retainer

    A small monthly payment, after the standard fee, that keeps me on call for changes.

    You payMonthly, agreed with your quote

    • I make edits in any month you're on retainer
    • Text, photos, prices and opening hours
    • Your site never goes stale

    Choose this if you expect to change things after launch.

Not sure yet? Start with step 1. You can add hosting or a retainer at any time, and pricing for both is agreed with your quote.

How much does a website cost?

Prices start at $1,500 for Launch, $4,000 for Studio and $8,000 for Custom, in Australian dollars, with no GST charged. Your exact quote depends on how many pages you need and what the site has to do. You get it after a short chat, before anything begins.

How long does it take?

As a guide, Launch takes 1 to 2 weeks, Studio 3 to 6 weeks and Custom 6 to 10 weeks. The timeline is confirmed in your quote.

Do I have to host the site with you?

No. Hosting is optional. If you already have hosting that works for you, that's fine. If you'd rather not think about servers, I can keep the site online for you.

What if I want changes after launch?

The optional monthly retainer covers edits to text, photos, prices and opening hours in any month you're on it. Pricing for hosting and the retainer is agreed with your quote.

What do I need to get started?

Your current website address (if you have one), your business name, and a sense of what isn't working today. Everything else we can work out together.

Is the free website check really free?

Yes. There's no sign-up. It reads your home page and up to five more pages and gives you the top five changes in plain English. It's an automated first look, not a full audit, and some sites block automated checks.

How I handle your details

  • What I collect. What you type into the apply form (your name, email and project details) and, if you use the free check, the website address you enter.
  • How it's used. Application answers are emailed to me through an email delivery service, and I use them only to reply to you and quote your project. The free check reads the public pages of the address you enter to write your report. I don't keep a list of the sites checked or their results, beyond standard server logs.
  • On your device. While you fill in the form, a draft is kept in your browser tab so you don't lose it. It clears when you close the tab.
  • Sharing. I don't sell your details or share them with advertisers. This page has no advertising or tracking cookies.
  • Questions or deletion. Email yamsstudioaus@gmail.com and I'll answer, correct or delete what I hold about you.
