HAND CODED
WEBSITES.
Custom-coded sites for Australian businesses that need to win, not blend in. From $8,000.
We believe the web is better when the people building it actually care about the code. Every site we ship is hand-written from an empty file. No Webflow, no Squarespace, no Framer, no shortcuts.
What we build,and where to start.
Six ways in · one studioCustom web design
Full custom builds from an empty file — the core of what we do.
02Small-business websites
Right-sized builds for small teams that need a fast, focused site without enterprise scope.
03Web design — Melbourne
Our home turf. Melbourne businesses that want a site built close to home.
04Hotels & venues
Booking-first sites built to earn direct reservations instead of paying OTA commission.
05Restaurants & hospitality
Menu, story and reservations, built so the site matches the quality of the food.
06Free site check
Not sure where you stand? Run a 30-second automated check on your current site first.
Not sure if your site is the problem? Find out free.
The check reads your site the way a visitor's browser does — loading speed, Core Web Vitals, the on-page SEO basics and whether the page actually asks for the enquiry. You get the findings back written in plain language, on the page, before we ask you for anything.
What we ship,
every time.
Five things,
done properly.
Six weeks,
no discovery theatre.
Free audit
Before anything's signed we write a free 10-point audit of your current site — performance, SEO, conversion friction, mobile, brand. You keep it whether you hire us or not.
Strategy
One 90-minute call. We come out with a sitemap, technical plan, fixed scope and a written proposal. Nothing moves until you sign off.
Design
High-fidelity designs in Figma for every page — desktop and mobile. One round of feedback, one round of revisions. We don't ship committee-designed work.
Build
Hand-coded in React and Next.js. You get a live staging link you can click through every day. Performance budgets enforced as we go.
Launch
Launch day, DNS cutover, 301 redirects, sitemap submitted. Then 30 days of free iteration. No drip retainer, no lock-in.
A Melbourne studio that writes every line by hand.
Pryce Digital exists because most business websites are broken not because the builders are bad, but because the tools are. Page builders compromise on performance, SEO and brand distinctiveness in ways most owners don't notice until it's too late. We build without them.
Hand-coded only
Every site we ship is written from an empty file. No page builders, no drag-and-drop, no template exports, no exceptions. Slower than Webflow, and that's the entire point.
Fixed price, fixed scope
Every proposal is fixed-price and written in plain English. No hourly creep, no scope drip — you know the number before we start.
Australia & NZ only
Melbourne-first, AU- and NZ-wide. Close enough on time zone, similar market context, easy to jump on a call or get on a plane. Not trying to be a global studio yet.
