Our Services

Website Design

We make websites that customers love to visit.

All websites are not created equal.

“I wish I came to you first”. The most common phrase we hear from our customers. Too many business owners have fallen for that DIY promise most website creation platforms market (we’re looking at you, Wix!). If you have tried to make a site yourself, and it looks nothing like you imagined. It’s time to get in touch.

We build websites with a meticulous eye for detail, technical understanding of mobile, tablet and SEO optimisation. Not to mention, we use cutting edge design methods, like video, CSS, Lottie animation and video to make your site stand out against your competitors.

Live chat, eCommerce, mail signup and booking forms? We’ve got you covered.

You’re a business owner. You don’t need to know how to do everything. That’s why we are here to help bring your dream website to life. Creating opportunities for people to love your business.

Why should you take a punt on us?

We give back.

A portion of all sales are donated back into the community. Supporting Australians and New Zealanders of all shapes and sizes. Learn More

We tell it like it is.

We avoid using jargon you don’t understand. We believe in honesty and openness. We listen to your needs and only recommend products that will make your life easier.

We understand good branding.

A lot of developers don’t understand what makes a customer tick. Which results in a pretty website, that no-one visits. We look at your entire brand and provide honest recommendations on how you can make the most of your online presence.

We are local.

The Commute is a small business, based in Cheltenham, Melbourne and Balclutha, New Zealand. By working with us, you are supporting your community and helping keep locals in jobs.

We train, support and maintain.

We build products that are easy to maintain. Every website includes complimentary 1-1 training and support. We also record our training sessions, so you can keep a copy for future reference.

We use them too!

We only sell products that The Commute uses itself. We have tried and tested, so you don’t have to!

The folks we kick around with.

These awesome individuals took a punt on us, maybe you should too!

Provide suggestions to improve your sites performance, content and Google search rankings.

Update and test all of your website software.

Individually update and test all existing website plug-ins.

Update the security credentials of your website and servers (WordPress®, cPanel, PHP database and FTP).

Update your PHP version (where required).

*While our hosting providers use enterprise-grade security systems and we follow all best practices in the sites we build, we cannot guarantee that your website will be impenetrable to sophisticated cyber attacks. Make sure you regularly have your website serviced/updated, change your passwords often, opt-in for two-factor authentication where possible and only share access to your site with people you trust.
