Gossip Gowns
Gossip Gowns had a three-floor Brisbane showroom, a cult TikTok following and a website that barely sold a dress. We rebuilt the store and made the catalogue legible to Google Shopping, and August 2026 was its best month on record.
Web Design Agency in Brisbane
We design, build and look after WordPress websites for businesses in Brisbane, on the Gold Coast and on the Sunshine Coast.
Recent work in Australia
Let’s Talk Let’s Eat
A Queensland speech pathology practice with three clinics and almost no search visibility. We rebuilt their site on WordPress with location pages, parent-first content structure and local SEO foundations.
AUSTAT
AUSTAT put a demanding brief out to tender: tiered member access, a find-a-teacher directory, eLearning, a digital library and self-service membership upgrades, all run by volunteers. We won the tender and built the platform.

What's holding your Brisbane website back?
Our site is slow.
Pages drag on mobile and people leave before they load.
Every update breaks something.
So the plugins sit there, out of date, getting riskier.
Nobody enquires through our website.
People visit, look around and leave without getting in touch.
Google can't find us.
People search for what you do and find your competitors.
We've outgrown our site builder.
Wix and Squarespace were fine to start. Now every feature costs extra.
Where would AI help us?
You know it could save time. You're not sure where to start.
Web design for Brisbane businesses
Chillybin has designed and built WordPress websites since 2009, for businesses in Australia and Singapore. Design, development, hosting and support sit with one team, so nothing gets lost between agencies.
Website design for new business websites, planned around how your customers buy and built in WordPress so your team can edit every page.
Website redesigns for sites the business has outgrown. We keep the pages that bring in traffic, redirect the ones that move and rebuild the rest.
Ecommerce websites on WooCommerce, with clean product data, stock that stays in sync and a checkout that works on a phone.
Custom development for member areas, directories, bookings and links to the systems you already run.
One team, from the first sketch to the years after launch

Websites your team can run

Structure before design
Before anything is designed, we agree the pages, the content and the path a customer takes to get in touch. The design is built on that plan, so it doesn't fall apart when real content arrives.
Yours to run
You own the site, the content and the code. It's standard WordPress, so your team can edit it and any developer can work on it. If you ever leave, it all goes with you.
The people you'll work with
Most of us have been here five years or more. The designer and developer on your kickoff call build your site and stay on it after launch.
Our culture is core to everything we do.

Frequently asked questions
Get in touch if your question isn't here.
Most of our WordPress websites cost $8,000 to $15,000. Larger sites with integrations, member areas or a big migration start from $20,000. You get a fixed quote after discovery, before any design starts.
Most websites launch in 8 to 12 weeks, from discovery to go-live. Larger platforms and complex migrations take longer, and we quote those individually. You'll get a dated timeline at kick-off.
No. We can meet in person or over Zoom, whichever suits you. You'll click through your site on a staging link as it's built, so it works the same wherever you are.
Yes. WordPress is designed so your team can update content without relying on developers. We build with easy content management in mind, provide training after launch, and create documentation to help you manage your site confidently. If you'd prefer, we also offer ongoing maintenance support.
Not if the migration is done properly. We set up 301 redirects from your old URLs to the new ones, carry across your page titles and descriptions, and follow technical SEO best practice so search engines know where your content has moved. In most cases, traffic holds steady or improves.
Not ourselves. We write content briefs for each page so you know what to cover, and if you'd rather hand the writing over, we can introduce you to one of our copywriting partners.
The site is yours from launch day. We can host it for you, or set it up on hosting you already have, and our care plans cover security monitoring, updates, backups and performance work. You're never locked into our hosting.
You do. Once the project is paid, the design, code and content are yours. The site runs on standard WordPress, so any developer can work on it.
We've specialised in WordPress since 2009, and it's what we recommend for most businesses. When a project needs Shopify, Drupal, Laravel or Next.js, we build in those too, and we'll tell you up front.
