Frequently Asked Questions

We know that navigating the digital realm can sometimes feel like a rollercoaster ride, and you’ve got questions – we’ve got answers. You’re in the right place.

What is the difference between web design and web development?

Think of web design and web development as two sides of the same coin. Web design is everything you see – the look, the layout, the colours, the feel. Web development is everything underneath – the code that makes it all actually work.
Good websites need both. A beautiful design that’s poorly built will frustrate users. A well-built site that looks outdated won’t win anyone over. At Visual Intent, our Perth web design and development team handles both sides, so nothing gets lost in translation.

What is a Content Management System (CMS) and what do you use?

A CMS is the behind-the-scenes tool that lets you update your website without needing to know how to code – adding blog posts, swapping images or editing your page details yourself, easily.
Our go-to is WordPress – it’s flexible, user-friendly and powers a huge chunk of the web for good reason. For e-commerce, we love Shopify. We can also work with Wix, Webflow and Squarespace, depending on what suits your project best.

What is Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and can you help me with it?

SEO is what gets your website found on Google (and other Search Engines). When someone in Perth searches for a business like yours, good SEO is what puts you near the top of the results instead of buried on page three, where nobody ventures.
It covers things like your site’s content, structure, speed and behind-the-scenes technical details that search engines pay close attention to. The good news – it’s not magic, it’s just doing the right things consistently.
We build SEO best practices into every website we create, and we can also help improve the ranking of your existing site.

Do you provide website support/maintenance?

Absolutely. Once your site is live, we don’t just disappear. We offer ongoing support and maintenance to keep your website secure, up-to-date and running smoothly.
We can help with content updates, bug fixes, performance improvements and general housekeeping – and it doesn’t matter who built your site originally, we’re happy to take it on.
Support is available on an ad-hoc basis or through a monthly package, whatever suits you best.

Are you based in Perth, Western Australia?

Absolutely – and we’re proud of it. Our entire team is right here in Perth, Western Australia. When you work with Visual Intent, you’re dealing directly with the local designers and developers doing the actual work. No offshore outsourcing, no middlemen, no timezone headaches. Just straight-talking, locally accountable people who genuinely care about your project.

There are so many website developers; why should I trust Visual Intent with our project?

Choosing a web design agency in Perth is a big decision – we get it. Visual Intent has been helping Perth (and Australian) businesses build and grow their online presence for over 25 years. We’re not a faceless agency; we’re a small, passionate team that treats your project like it matters, because it does.

How long and how much does it cost for a website?

The honest answer is – it depends. Every website is different, and the timeline and cost will vary based on the size, complexity and features involved.
A simple, clean website can be turned around in a couple of weeks. A larger site with custom functionality or e-commerce could take a few months. Either way, we’ll give you a clear timeline upfront so there are no surprises.
On cost, we work with a wide range of budgets and will always be upfront about what’s involved. We’d rather have an honest conversation about what you actually need than oversell you on something you don’t.
The best way to get a feel for what your project might involve is to get in touch or fill out our Project Starter Questionnaire — it only takes a few minutes and helps us give you a much more accurate picture.

Can you redesign my existing website, or do you only build new ones?

If your current website is looking a little tired, hard to update, not showing up on Google or just doesn’t reflect where your business is at anymore, it’s probably time for a refresh.
We’ll take a thorough look at what you’ve already got and provide an honest assessment of what’s working and what isn’t. Sometimes a full rebuild is the right call. Other times, a targeted redesign or a structural tidy-up is all you need to get things back on track. Either way, we’ll ensure your new or refreshed website is fast, mobile-friendly, easy to manage, and properly set up for search engines from day one. And because we’re a local Perth team, you can actually sit down and talk it through with us – no chatbots, no call centres.

Does Visual Intent work with businesses outside of Perth?

Absolutely! While we’re proudly based in Perth, Western Australia, we work with businesses right across the country – and occasionally beyond. Thanks to video calls, shared project tools and email, distance really isn’t a barrier to getting great work done together.
That said, if you’re a Perth business, there’s a real advantage in working with a local web design team. We’re available for face-to-face catch-ups, we understand the local market, and we’re in the same timezone – which makes the whole process a lot smoother!
Our process is built around clear communication and keeping you in the loop every step of the way, no matter where you’re based

Do you offer white-label web development for agencies?

Yes, we do. If you’re a marketing agency, design studio, PR firm or creative consultancy that needs reliable web development support behind the scenes, we’ve got you covered.
Our white-label web development service means we do the building, and you take the credit. Your clients never need to know we’re involved – we work quietly in the background to deliver professional, high-quality websites that you’d be proud to put your name on.
Based here in Perth, we’re a trusted extension of agencies both locally and nationally. We’re experienced, easy to communicate with, and we understand how agencies work.
It’s a relationship built on trust, and we take that seriously. Many of our agency partners have been working with us for years because they know the work will be done right, the first time.

     Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Paul is fast, friendly and a pleasure to work with. We had to pause this project mid-build due to external issues - Paul was incredibly accomodating and jumped back on it immediately once we were ready to go. This is our first site in WordPress and he has patiently helped us learn a new system.
