What we do

Everything a small business needs to be found online

.au

Your web address

We register yourbusiness.com.au (or .au, .com) in your name, and handle the paperwork and technical bits behind it.

Hosting

The Australian server your website and email live on. Backed up daily, secured with a padlock, and sized for one business rather than a data centre.

Hosting plans →

Business email

you@yourbusiness.com.au on your phone and your computer. Looks more professional than a Gmail address on the side of the ute.

Email options →

A website

A clean, fast site that shows what you do, where you work and how to reach you. Built for you, owned by you, secured with a padlock, and it just keeps working.

Websites

A website that just works. For years.

Most tradies and small businesses don't need a website they log into and fiddle with. They need a good-looking page that loads instantly, shows up on Google, works on a phone and lets customers call or email.

That's what we build. There's no software behind it to update or get hacked, no monthly subscription to a website builder, and no lock-in — the site is yours, and we hand you a copy.

  • Looks good on a phone, loads in a blink
  • Click-to-call, contact form, Google Maps and your Google Business listing
  • Padlock (SSL) and the Google basics included
  • Hosted on Bright1 and backed up every day

Site been hacked, or just stopped working?

It happens a lot with older do-it-yourself sites. We can recover what's worth keeping, rebuild it properly and move it onto Bright1 hosting, usually within a couple of weeks.

We also host and look after CPAP SleepCare, a sleep-apnoea equipment retailer in Narellan, NSW.

How we work

Like the local you'd call for anything else

Bright1 is a small business too. When you get in touch, you get the person who actually looks after your website and hosting — not a ticket queue or a chatbot. Each issue gets handled with attention and care, and we explain things in plain English.

We're based in Sydney's Hills District and always happy to meet in person over a coffee, at your workshop or ours.

We don't do everything. If you need a full online shop with a shopping cart, we'll point you to a specialist platform such as Shopify that does that well for a monthly fee, and we'll happily set up your domain and email to work with it.

Support is a message away

Send a note through the contact page and it lands straight with us. Monday to Friday, and most small changes are done the same day.

Sydney, Hills District. Happy to meet in person.
