Accessible, responsive and quick on a real phone rather than quick in a lab. - Fixed scope and launch date agreed before design starts. - Built for real-world phones and real-world connections. - Semantic, accessible markup your team can edit safely. ### Search visibility People reach a business through results pages, map listings and the answer panels that summarise them. All three read structured, crawlable pages, so that is what we build — the claims live in the HTML, never in an animation. - Structured data, clean headings and crawlable copy on every page. - Local and intent-led search work aimed at buyers, not traffic. - Technical clean-up so the pages can actually be indexed. ### Enquiry funnels Landing pages and offers built around a single thing you want the visitor to do, with the form short enough that they finish it. Measured, then changed when the numbers say so. - Landing pages tied to one action, not five. - Offers worth an email address, written plainly. - Forms short enough to finish on a phone. ### CRM and follow-up Every enquiry lands somewhere with a name on it, tagged and followed up whether or not anybody remembers. The last link in the chain, and the one most sites leave off. - Every enquiry lands in your CRM, tagged at the source. - Follow-up that runs without anyone remembering to send it. - A monthly read on what landed and where it came from. ## How an engagement runs - 01 Diagnose (Week 1): We audit the site, the search footprint and the follow-up, and show you where enquiries are being lost. - 02 Build (Weeks 2–6): Design and build to a fixed scope and date, with the pages that earn their keep written first. - 03 Feed (Month 2 onward): Search, funnel and follow-up work keep the enquiries arriving after launch — and we report on what lands. ## Published results Keelbase publishes one client outcome. It is the only outcome metric on the site, and every other case-study slot is explicitly marked as an unfilled placeholder. ### Harrow & Pine Joinery — Joinery — Blue Mountains A new site, one clear action on every page, and follow-up that runs itself. The owner stopped chasing quotes through an inbox. - Built in 5 weeks — From first call to launch. - 1.2s load on 4G — Load on a 4G connection, on a real handset. - Three enquiries a month → nine — Enquiries, up from three before the rebuild. Client quote (Nina Vasquez, Director, Harrow & Pine Joinery): "We went from three enquiries a month to nine, and I stopped chasing quotes through my inbox." ## Questions and answers ### What does Keelbase actually do? We design and build websites for small and mid-sized businesses, then do the ongoing search, funnel and follow-up work that keeps enquiries arriving. You can buy either half on its own; they work better together. ### How long does a build take? A typical build runs about six weeks from the first call to launch, with the scope and the date agreed before design starts. ### Where is Keelbase based? Brisbane, Queensland. We work with businesses across QLD and remotely elsewhere in Australia. ### Who will I be talking to? The people doing the work. Keelbase is a small studio with no account managers, so the person who scopes your build is the person who builds it. ### What platform do you build on? Usually WordPress, hand-built rather than assembled from a page builder, so the site stays fast and your team can still edit it. We use standard tooling and no proprietary lock-in. ### Is the ongoing work a lock-in contract? No. The monthly work is month to month. We report on what landed, and if it stops paying for itself you should stop paying for it. ## Pages - [One connected system, not four invoices.](https://keelbase.com.au/services/): A website, the search work that makes it findable, the funnel that turns a visit into an enquiry, and the follow-up that catches it. Buy any part on its own — they are built to work as one. - [Sites we built, and what they did next.](https://keelbase.com.au/work/): A short list on purpose. Each entry separates what we designed from what it measurably did, because those are two different claims and only one of them is ours to make. - [Diagnose. Build. Feed.](https://keelbase.com.au/approach/): Three phases, no mystery. You can see the whole sequence before you commit to any of it, including the parts that need something from you. - [A small studio in Brisbane.](https://keelbase.com.au/about/): Keelbase builds websites for small and mid-sized businesses, then does the ongoing work that keeps enquiries coming in. You talk to the people doing it. That is the whole offer. - [Notes from inside the builds.](https://keelbase.com.au/journal/): Short write-ups of the work: what we audit, what we change, and what it did to the enquiries. - [Twenty minutes, and you will know where the leaks are.](https://keelbase.com.au/contact/): Tell us the business and the problem. If we are not the right studio for it we will say so on the first call rather than three weeks in. ## Machine-readable sources - Sitemap: https://keelbase.com.au/wp-sitemap.xml - Every page carries schema.org JSON-LD (Organization, ProfessionalService, WebSite, WebPage, BreadcrumbList, Service, CreativeWork, Person, FAQPage, Article).
