A small business website in Melbourne should be fast, mobile-first, and set up to get found on Google for your services and suburb. You don't need a big budget — Scalesites builds local business sites for $750 (5-page, most popular) or $500 (3-page), live in 2 weeks, with no lock-in, and you own it.
Who it's for
Not just trades — cafes, salons, cleaners, personal trainers, allied health and any local service business that wants to be found online. If customers search for what you do in your suburb, a simple website turns that search into an enquiry.
What a small business website needs
- A clear headline — what you do and the area you serve.
- Mobile-first design — most local searches happen on a phone.
- Your services, in words customers actually search.
- Local SEO setup and a Google Business Profile connection.
- Reviews or testimonials for trust.
- An easy way to get in touch — click-to-call and a short form.
What it should cost
Less than most expect. A 5-page site is $750 — our most popular — or a 3-page site is $500, both flat with no GST added. For a full breakdown of the market, see our guide to website costs.

Frequently asked questions
