Custom Website Design for Small Businesses.

WILDE STUDIO provides custom website design for small business owners in Melbourne and website design for clients across Australia.
 

Every site is thought through before it is designed, then built around your business, your clients and what people actually need to understand before they enquire.

 

If your brand has fallen behind the business, I can sort that out too. Brand and website projects can be built together so the whole thing makes sense from the start.

About WILDE Studio

A Brand Built Around Your Business.

Hi, I'm Lola.

I work directly with service businesses to create brands and websites that finally reflect the quality of the work behind them.

No Account Managers.
No Handoffs.
No Templates pretending to be custom

Just me, asking a lot of questions, noticing the details other people skip and making sure the finished work actually fits your business.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Got A Question?

The most common ones are answered here. If yours isn't, just send a message below.

  • No. Most clients come to me with an idea of their business, not a finished brief. I’ll ask the questions that get you there.

  • Most projects take 4 to 6 weeks from start to finish, depending on scope.

  • Yes. I specialise in Wix, which means faster builds, fewer bugs, and a site you can actually manage yourself once it's live.

  • I offer brand strategy, visual identity, website design, SEO and keyword strategy, and creative direction.

    ​

    Copywriting isn't included in my packages, but I'll guide you on what each page needs to say. If you'd rather hand the writing over, I can refer you to a health and wellness copywriter I trust.

  • Landing pages start from $1,200, Semi-Custom websites from $1,800, and Signature custom multi-page websites (including a blog) from $3,500. Complete websites with online bookings or an online store start from $4,500. Headless websites start from $1,500 plus a care plan from $150 a month (12-month minimum). Online bookings can be added to a Semi-Custom website from $900. Branding starts from $2,000. Larger or more complex projects are quoted individually.

    If you're not sure what you need, tell me a bit about your business and I'll give you a straight answer, even if that means a smaller project.

  • I'm a Melbourne local and have spent my whole life here, so I understand the people, the communities, and the small businesses that make this city what it is. I genuinely care about helping local businesses succeed.

    ​

    At WILDE STUDIO, my goal is to make running your business easier, not harder. I build brands and websites designed to support where you are now and grow with you as your business evolves.

  • Yes. While most of my clients are based in Australia, I work with service based businesses internationally too.
