ACT Websites

ACT Websites is a Canberra-based WordPress freelance operation run as a small, one-person practice serving Australian sole traders and small service-based businesses. The focus is on helping these clients build online credibility through custom websites, with an emphasis on professional presentation, mobile-friendly design, and being findable in search results. Rather than working across broad industries or large organisations, the practice is positioned around small business owners who need a straightforward, trustworthy web presence that generates enquiries. Services centre on custom WordPress website design built with Divi (including Divi 5), covering new builds, website redesigns, and migrations of existing sites to WordPress. Work is guided by a structured three-step process: a discovery call and planning questionnaire, a detailed proposal with scope, cost, timeline and optional extras (secured with a 30% deposit), and an onboarding welcome pack once the agreement is signed. Beyond design, ongoing support includes website care plans covering backups, security monitoring and maintenance, technical repairs for broken or crashed sites, and content updates to text, images, blog posts and pricing pages. Additional offerings include SEO foundations audits, blog design and setup, and a mini brand kit service covering logo design, font pairing and colour palettes. The combined approach aims to pair design and technical upkeep with search visibility and content support for small business clients.
