Nothing to build. We design and build your website for free, and you pay nothing until you've seen it and approved it. From there it's $199/month for the Free Range Care Plan — hosting, security, backups and unlimited updates, all in. No setup fee. No lock-in. Cancel any time with 30 days notice. Want to own the code outright? Flat $1,800, available from day one.
Plenty of "free" websites are really a 12-month contract with the cost buried in the monthly fee. Ours isn't. Don't like the site? Don't pay for it. Stop liking it in month seven? Leave.

You're a good mechanic. That's not the problem. The problem is what happens before anyone books the car in.
More than half of people looking on their phone will leave if a page takes longer than three seconds to come up. Someone with a warning light on the dash is not waiting — they hit back and call the next workshop. Usual cause is a heavy page nobody optimised.
We hand-code every site and keep the files small, so yours comes up fast.
Fair or not, most people walk in expecting to be overcharged for work they can't verify. That suspicion is the single biggest thing standing between you and a booking. If your site doesn't address it — clear pricing, plain explanations, real reviews — you're just another workshop.
We build the site around transparency and reviews, so people book you feeling safe rather than wary. A licensed, registered workshop puts them at ease, and business.gov.au covers the licences that apply.
If your site just says "mechanical repairs," Google has nothing to go on. It can't tell whether you do logbook servicing, or roadworthy certificates, or brakes, or transmissions, or European cars. So when someone nearby searches for one of those, Google shows them somebody else.
We give each of your services its own page, so Google knows exactly what to show you for.
A huge number of drivers still believe servicing anywhere but the dealership voids their warranty. It doesn't — but if your site never says so, they'll keep paying dealer prices instead of coming to you.
We say it plainly on your site, so people know they can bring the car to you and keep their warranty.
Every lead you buy off a directory is a lead three other workshops bought at the same time. You're bidding against them on price, you're paying for the privilege, and the day you stop paying, the leads stop dead. You're renting customers who ought to be yours already.
Your own site, your own bookings, one flat monthly. Nobody takes a cut.
We won't promise you page one of Google. Nobody can. What we build is the foundation — fast, structured properly, a page for everything you offer. Without that, nothing else has a chance of working.
That's how people search, and it's how Google decides who to show them.
Your bread and butter, and the search where you can win work straight off the dealership. A page saying it plainly — same service, warranty intact, better price — takes that booking.
An urgent, specific search from people selling or registering a car on a deadline. They ring whoever comes up and can fit them in.
Common, safety-related work people search by name when something starts making a noise.
The warning-light search. Someone worried about what it'll cost wants a workshop that will look and explain before charging.
Bigger, higher-value work people research carefully because they know it's expensive. This page has room to build confidence.
Seasonal and specific. People search these directly and often don't know who does them.
Your free website includes five pages, so we'll build out the services that win you the most bookings — and you can add more later whenever you like.

I signed up on Monday. Got a great looking website on Wednesday. These guys are good!!! ~ Mark
Total across 12 months: $199 × 12 = $2,388
That's way less than what an agency would charge upfront. i-e $5,000–$25,000+
$199. That's probably less than a single call out fee
Now that's amazing!
There's a belief that costs independent workshops more business than anything else: that a new car has to go back to the dealership for servicing or the warranty is void. It isn't true. As long as the service is done to the manufacturer's schedule with the right parts and stamped properly, the warranty stands — and a good independent workshop usually does it for meaningfully less.
Plenty of drivers have no idea. They spend the first five years of a car's life paying dealer prices because nobody ever told them otherwise, and the workshop three streets away that would have done a better job for less never got a look in.
Your website is where you tell them. Not buried in a paragraph — clearly, on a page about logbook servicing, saying exactly that: we service to the manufacturer's schedule, we stamp your book, your warranty stays intact, and here's what it costs. That single message, said plainly, is worth more to a workshop than almost anything else you could put on a website.
Most mechanic sites never say it. Yours can.
That's why updates are unlimited and included. Ring us, tell us what you're doing now, and it's on your site.
