Hosting & domain
Hosting and domain not included
To keep website build costs low, you can purchase your own domain and hosting directly through Hostinger. This keeps the website in your name, avoids agency lock-in and reduces ongoing costs.
We build the website and provide the completed files for upload to your Hostinger account. Prefer not to deal with any of that? Assisted setup ($120) includes registering your domain for you (a .com or .com.au, or a cheaper option) and getting the site live. Alternatively, we can host and maintain the website for you under a $40 AUD monthly subscription. If the subscription ends and you'd like the website transferred to your own hosting account, a $100 AUD transfer fee applies.

Running an online store? Store management is a separate, optional service ($100/month) where we add and update your products, prices and stock for you. That's hands-on work each month — different from hosting, which simply keeps your site online and current. Most owners happily manage their own products in WooCommerce.
