Three kinds of people land on this page. Pick yours — the form at the bottom will already know what you need.
I don't have a website yet
Customers are Googling you right now and finding nothing — or worse, a competitor. We get you online properly: fast, findable, and built to bring enquiries from day one.
Start from $548My website needs a revamp
Slow load times, dated design, no enquiries? A revamp keeps what works, fixes what doesn't and rebuilds the rest on modern infrastructure you own.
Revamps from $399I'm a marketing pro who needs a CRM
Off-the-shelf CRMs charge per seat for features you'll never touch. We build lean custom CRMs and client portals around your exact pipeline — leads, jobs, reporting.

Straight answers from the blog
Short, honest reads on SEO, GEO, AEO, digital marketing and social media — what works, what doesn't, and what we'd do with our own money.
SEO
Local Pages That Get Found
Someone searching 'electrician near me' is not browsing. They want a name, a suburb and a way to call. One clear service page beats a homepage that tries to say everything.
SEO
Headlines That Earn the Click
The title tag is the line in the search result. If it doesn't say what you do and where you do it, the clever line on the page never gets read.
SEO
Slow Sites Lose the Job
A slow page is not a technical hobby. It's the moment someone on a job site gives up and rings the next name. Speed, images and a page that works on a phone come first.
GEO
Get Mentioned When Someone Asks an AI
Generative engines quote pages that state a fact plainly: who you help, where, and what it costs to start. Vague brand lines don't get cited.
GEO
Write Sentences a Machine Can Quote
One sentence, one claim. 'We build tradie websites from $1,048 across Australia.' That can be lifted cleanly. A paragraph of mood cannot.
AEO
Answer the Question Before You Sell
Answer engine pages lead with the answer: price range, what is included, how long it takes. The pitch comes after the person has what they searched for.
AEO
FAQs People Actually Type
Use the question a customer would say out loud. 'How much is a tradie website?' beats 'What is our value proposition?' Match the heading to the question.
SEO
One Service, One Page
A roofing page and a solar page should not be the same URL with a longer menu. People search for the job. Give that job its own page, its own heading, its own proof.
GEO
Your Site and Your Profile Must Match
If the website says Brisbane and the Google profile says the Gold Coast, both people and answer engines trust you less. Name, phone, suburbs and services should agree.
AEO
Publish Answers, Not Slogans
A blog that only says 'we are passionate' will not be the answer. A short page that explains what a landing page includes, and what it costs, will.
Digital Marketing
What Digital Marketing Actually Includes (No Jargon)
SEO, Google Ads, email, analytics — digital marketing gets sold as magic. It isn't. Here's what each piece does and when it's worth paying for.

Google Ads vs SEO: Where Should a Small Business Spend First?
Both put you in front of people searching. One is a tap you pay to keep running, the other is an asset you build. Here's how to choose.
Social Media
Is Paying for Social Media Management Actually Worth It?
For some businesses it's the best money they spend. For others it's a bonfire. A straight answer on when outsourcing your socials makes sense.

Questions people ask before they buy a website
These are the questions South East Queensland business owners ask when they want a site: what it costs, who owns it, how long it takes, and whether a Google profile is enough. The answer is in the first lines.
How much does a website cost in South East Queensland?
With HoneyPot, a landing page starts from $548 AUD, a tradie website from $1,048, and a custom site from $2,548. Hosting and care starts from $29 a month on accounts you own. Other studios quote much higher for a similar brochure site, so compare what is included, not just the first number.
Do I own the website when it is finished?
Yes. The domain, the hosting accounts and the site are yours. There is no lock-in contract. Monthly services can be cancelled with 30 days' notice.
How long does a website take?
A landing page is built to launch in days, not months. A tradie site or a custom build takes longer because the form, the pages and the words have to match the job. The usual delay is waiting on photos and answers from you, not the build itself.
Do I still need a website if I have Instagram and a Google profile?
Yes, if you want to own the enquiry. A Google Business Profile and a social page can be found, but they are rented. Your site is where the price, the services and the quote form live. The profile, the phone number and the suburbs on the site should say the same thing.
Will customers in Brisbane, the Gold Coast or the Sunshine Coast find me?
They find a page that names the service and the suburbs you cover, with a phone number they can tap. One service gets one page. That is the local SEO base. It is not a promise of the number-one spot.
What is GEO and AEO, in plain English?
GEO means writing so an AI answer can quote you. AEO means answering the question in the first lines, before the sales pitch. A page that opens with the price and what is included does both. A slogan does neither.
Can you build a tradie website for South East Queensland?
Yes. Tradie sites start from $1,048. They include a quote form, service areas, reviews and a layout that works on a phone, including click-to-call. We work Australia-wide and fully remote, including Brisbane, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast, Ipswich and Logan.
What should I ask before I pay for a website?
Ask who owns the domain and the accounts, what the price includes, who writes the words, and what happens after launch. If those answers are vague, the cheap quote usually is not cheap.
