Managed website packages for Australian small businesses. Design, hosting, updates and SEO foundations under one monthly fee - with no large upfront build invoice.
We're here to make sure your site never becomes the weak link in your brand.
Why we offer this
The biggest risk isn't knowing what you're paying for.
For most small business owners, the hardest part of getting a website isn't the brief or the budget. It's the risk. Website creation is unfortunately cowboy territory, and too many people only find out what they bought after the money is gone.
With a car, you can get in, drive it, feel it, and know it's right when that stupid-arse grin won't leave your face. With food, you can see it, smell it, look at others' plates and go 'that one'. A website is different. Until it's live and working, all you have is hopes and dreams, praying that the one you put your faith in doesn't let you down.
Even when someone comes recommended, that doesn't guarantee a good result. Many of our clients come to us with stories of being let down multiple times, even by people who were referred to them, losing a small five-figure sums to shoffy work or being outright ghosted.
That's why we structure our website plans differently. We want to see small business owners thrive and be part of that success. By taking on the risk of 20, 40 or 100+ hours of work upfront, we put our skin in the game - betting that you’ll see the value and gladly partner with us. One clear monthly fee, no massive upfront invoice, and you see the finished product before paying a dime. Walk away anytime.
You're not buying a website. You're buying your time.
Small business owners spend 100's of hours scouring how-to pages, creating content, updating their sites (or trying to), or just getting stuck with all the jargon and other tech BS that comes with the territory. That's time should be spent developing that new strategy, launching that product and connecting with your staff and customers. Not spent banging your head on the desk wondering why that plugin you haven't used in 12 years just broke everything.
One great price. One superior result.
No half-arsed websites. We build hand-crafted sites that look great on anything, everywhere. Package size changes the scope. These standards stay the same.
The average website goes for $7180. And that's for something slap-together that won't get you noticed. You could have this running for two years and still have money in your pocket for snacks.
One clear plan. One monthly fee. No surprises.

Scopedto fit
For larger sites, booking flows or industry-specific needs that sit outside a standard managed package.
Most agencies still sell the same old mess.
Big deposits, template sites and people who click around in WordPress then call themselves developers. Our packages avoid that whole circus.
Huge upfront invoices before you've seen anything
We don't. You get a live sample first. Pay nothing until you have something real to judge.
Shitty WordPress templates dressed up as custom work
We don't. Every build is designed and coded for your business, not a theme with your logo stuck on.
Theme-tweakers who don't write real code
We don't. We build the site ourselves. If something breaks, the person who made it fixes it.
Account-manager carousels and ticket queues
We don't. You talk to the person doing the work. Direct answers. No telephone tennis.
Mystery scopes that balloon after the deposit clears
We don't. Clear monthly packages with hosting, updates and care included from the start. You don't touch a thing.
Lock-in contracts that trap you after a bad fit
We don't. Walk away anytime. If it isn't right, you shouldn't be stuck paying for it.
A new website package isn't always the right first step. If you already have a site, we can review what you have and tell you whether a rebuild, a tune-up or a few targeted fixes will get you the result you need.
Our free website audit gives you clear feedback on performance, SEO, usability and conversion issues, plus practical advice on what to fix first. We'll also flag quick wins we can action for you at no charge when they're straightforward.
Use the audit to make a confident call before you commit to a full managed package.
You bring the business knowledge. We bring the build, hosting, updates, and ongoing improvements.
Discuss your planWhether you're starting from scratch or already have a site, we map what the business needs online and what the managed plan should include. If you already have a site, we work out what to keep, fix, or rebuild. If not, we plan the pages, offer and goals from the ground up. If you want to own the lot in-house we can scope that in too.
We handle the hand-crafted build, structure, hosting setup, performance, SEO foundations, forms, and tracking. You provide content feedback and approvals while we run the technical side. If making changes yourself is important, let us know so we can pivot.
You see the finished site on a real staging server, request changes and sign off before launch. The monthly plan is built around a product you can judge in the real world, not promises in a proposal deck.
After launch we handle unlimited content and system updates, support, SEO and conversion improvements as part of the managed service.
FAQ
Straight answers on what our small business web design packages include and how pricing works in Australia.
Good fit
You need a website that performs, generates leads, and supports your business goals.
You understand that quality websites are an investment, and you're prepared to spend on something that will make you more money in the long run.
You're too busy running your business to worry about website management. You want someone else to handle the technical details while you focus on what you do best.
You've seen others try or tried them yourself, and you know they don't deliver real results. You're ready for something professional that works.
You care about speed, SEO, and performance because you know that a slow, underperforming website is throwing leads in the trash.
You're looking for someone who understands your business, not a developer who builds your site and disappears.
Poor fit
If price is your only concern, reach out and we might be able to accomodate you, but this service isn't it.
If you think a $20/month website builder will grow your business without any strategy, good luck, but that's not what we do.
This is a fully managed service so if you're someone that like to tweak and change pieces every day, a Squarespace site might be a better fit for your needs.
We typically couple this service with ad marketing which can get spency quick. If you're not ready to spend money to make money, this service is going to feel like an expense, not an investment.
If you're not in a position where you're actively trying to grow your business and attract new customers, this service isn't for you.
Request website support and we'll tell you if a rebuild, tune-up or a few targeted fixes is the right first step.
Hey, I'm Josh. I'm not trying to be the biggest web agency in Melbourne. I don't want to be.
I run Paragon Panda because I kept meeting small business owners who'd been let down, overcharged, or ghosted mid-project. That stuff frustrates me to high-heaven. I'd rather take on fewer clients, do the work properly, and pick up the phone when you call. I also contract with Telstra building out pages for the 394th iPhone so I may not answer on the first ring but leave a message and I'll buzz you right back. Otherwise I might lump you in with the other dozen real estate agents cold-calling me.
Fair warning: I'm direct, I swear occasionally, and I'll tell you if your genius idea is a waste of money, even if it was going in my own pocket. I care about building something you can be proud of.
Most agencies ask for a deposit or milestone payment before you've seen much of anything. I understand why, but it's a rough deal when you're the one taking the risk.
I'll put together a full design for your business on a real staging site first, so you can see what we deliver before a dollar leaves your account. I'll tweak until you're happy and if something doesn't feel right, walk away.
I don't recycle the same template from 2010 and call it a day. Web stuff moves fast and your competitors aren't standing still. I'll keep pushing your site forward so you're not left behind because I got comfortable.
Located in Melbourne AU, you won't be stuck on hold for hours waiting for someone to pick you up from the queue. ...well, maybe you'll have to wait when we're out at lunch, but we'll call you right back and you won't be stuffed around with technical jargon. You're just having a chat with someone who knows their stuff.
I've spent ten-plus years on websites for names like Telstra and ANZ, government, and just as much time with tradies, small businesses and one-person bands. The corporate gigs taught me how to do things properly; the small jobs taught me who needs it. I'll never pretend your job is too small to matter.
