Port Douglas visitors make up their minds fast. Bernie builds sites that make your business the obvious choice, whether someone is searching from a couch in Melbourne or standing on Macrossan Street deciding where to eat.
Port Douglas is small but the businesses here need to work hard online. Every type of business has different customers and different things they need a website to do.
Port Douglas visitors do not just rock up and figure it out when they get there. Most people research their whole trip in advance. Where to stay, where to eat, what tours to book, all of it gets searched online before they leave home.
If your business does not show up in those searches, you are invisible to a huge chunk of your potential customers before they have even packed their bags.
Bernie builds sites that are set up so Google can find them and send the right people your way, both the planner searching at home in Brisbane and the visitor standing on the street right now looking for somewhere to go.
Port Douglas is not the same as any other tourist town. Bernie lives and works in this region and understands what the customers who come here actually expect from a business online.
Port Douglas visitors expect a certain standard, and your website needs to match that. Bernie builds sites that look the part without charging like a big city agency with a team of twenty.
Bernie does the work himself. No junior picking up where someone else left off, no call centre, no being bounced around. You talk to the person building your site, every time.
Visitors do not hang around. If your site is slow or the booking process is painful, they are already on the next tab. Bernie builds sites that load fast and get out of the way so customers can book or call without fuss.
Shanti Cafe in Mission Beach is the kind of result Bernie is working toward for every client.
"Shanti Cafe now shows up #1 on Google for cafe searches in Mission Beach. Foot traffic and online enquiries have gone up noticeably since the new site launched."

Straight answers, no runaround.
Yes, and it is a big part of what Bernie does. Tourism is the backbone of Port Douglas, and the sites he builds are set up specifically to attract visitors before they arrive and turn browsers into bookings once they are in town.
Every site Bernie builds works properly on a phone, loads fast and is easy to use with one hand. Most of your customers are deciding where to go while they are already out and about. A clunky or slow mobile site means they move on.
That is the whole point. People plan Port Douglas trips weeks or months in advance. Bernie builds sites that show up for those early searches, so you are already on someone's list before they book their flights.
Yes, completely. You own the domain and every file on the site. No lock-in contracts. If you ever want to move on, Bernie hands everything over without any fuss. It is your business, it should be your website.
Most sites are up and live within two to four weeks of getting started, depending on how quickly content and photos come together. Bernie keeps you in the loop the whole way through and nothing goes live without your approval.
Having a website and having a website that actually works are two different things. Most sites Bernie looks at are invisible to Google, slow on phones or just not convincing enough to make someone pick up the phone. That is exactly what he fixes. Give him a call on 0455 836 000 and he will take a look.
Free call, no pressure, just an honest look at where things are at and what a better website could do for you.
