About Shopfront Studio
We exist for one reason. To help Australian small businesses get found online.
Who We Are
Shopfront Studio is a Melbourne-based web design agency that specialises exclusively in small business websites for Australian businesses.
We are not a big agency. We don't have account managers, project managers, and a junior designer who has never spoken to you actually building your site. We are a small, focused operation that works directly with small business owners to build websites that do one thing well: get results.
We believe Australian small businesses deserve better than overpriced, underperforming websites that look great in a portfolio and do nothing in Google search.
Our Philosophy
Results over pretty.
A beautiful website that nobody finds is a waste of money. A simple website that ranks on page one of Google and generates three enquiries a day is worth every dollar.
We don't enter design awards. We track rankings, phone calls, and form submissions. That is how we measure success, and that is how our clients measure success.
Every website we build is structured for Google from day one. Right keywords, fast loading, mobile-first design, local schema markup, and Google Search Console set up before the site goes live.
Why We Only Work With Small Businesses
Big agencies work with big budgets. We work with tradies who need their first website. Cafes that want to show up when someone Googles cafe near me. Physios trying to rank for their suburb. Accountants who want more local clients.
Small businesses need speed, value, and plain English communication. They don't need a 40-page strategy document. They need a website that works. That is what we build.
Meet the Team
"Most small business owners I meet have a website that was built to look impressive in a proposal. Nobody ever checked if it ranked. We fix that."
Our Process
Four steps from first conversation to live, tracked website.
Free website review
We look at your current site, Google Business Profile, and local rankings. We tell you exactly what is working and what is not, at no charge.
Proposal and fixed price
No hourly rates, no scope creep. You get a fixed price for a defined scope before anything starts.
Build and optimise
We design, write, and build your site. Every page is structured for Google and written to convert visitors into enquiries.
Launch and track
We launch and set up Google Search Console so you can see your rankings from day one.
