Most agencies hand you off: a designer, then a developer, then a support queue, then a hosting company who has never seen your site. I do all six steps, so nothing falls between them.
Built once. Built properly. Still working in five years.
Tell me your situation. I'll tell you what I'd build it on and why, including when the answer is cheaper than you expected.
You publish regularly and want to edit pages yourself without a developer and without the layout falling apart.
Project showcases that win tenders, secure client and tender portals, and Procore, Xero and Deputy talking to each other.
Online booking wired to HotDoc, Cliniko or Halaxy, patient portals, and content written to stay inside AHPRA's advertising rules.
Shopify and BigCommerce done properly, headless when the catalogue demands it, and B2B portals with real wholesale pricing.
Not a target. A written guarantee on every build. Performance is a structural decision, so it gets made at the start, not bolted on after launch.

“I could not recommend Richard more highly. His knowledge is remarkable, his professionalism exceptional, and the way he completely sorted my issues, quickly, effortlessly was simply brilliant. Champion bloke, brilliant at what he does.”
“Our brand new startup is launching with the best possible website I could have imagined. He took the time from the very beginning to understand us and our business, and he has made our branding and website reflect that and represent us perfectly.”
I trained as a structural engineer. Ten years in steel detailing and structural drafting taught me that a thing either holds up under load or it doesn't, and that you find out later, not on the day it's handed over.
I've been building for the web for 25 years and running RAVENCI from Brisbane since 2018. I design it, I build it, I host it, I patch it, and I answer the phone when something breaks. The sites I built five years ago are still fast, still ranking, still running. That's the whole pitch.
More about how I workI'll run your site through the same checks I use on client work and send back what search engines and AI assistants see. No pitch attached.
