on the Central Coast

Willow Jam Media is a two-person studio in NSW. We design thoughtfully made websites for local businesses, and look after the SEO that helps them show up on Google.

It's all done in-house. You deal directly with the designer and developer working on your site, with no account manager in between. We've built sites for businesses in Gosford, Erina, Terrigal and Wyong, and we work with clients across Australia too.

If you need a new website or want to improve the one you have, have a look at our Central Coast web design service or call us on 0403 530 643.

  • 35+ years combined design & development experience
  • A local team you can meet in person
  • Direct access to your designer and developer

We make
websites
with soul

"Every business deserves a website that truly represents who they are."

We keep projects straightforward. You deal directly with the people doing the work, the process is clear from start to finish, and nothing goes live until you’re happy with it.

We’ll talk you through each decision, tell you honestly what’s worth doing, and stay on hand after launch if you need us.

Why businesses choose Willow Jam

Six reasons clients work with us, and keep coming back.

SEO Built In,
Not Bolted On

Every site we build follows best-practice SEO from the ground up. Site structure, page speed, heading hierarchy, and keyword-focused content, your site is ready to rank before it goes live.

Clear Communication,
Always

No jargon, no confusion. We keep you informed at every step. You'll always know exactly what's happening with your project and why.

Mobile-First,
Every Time

Over 70% of web traffic is mobile. Every website we design starts on the smallest screen and scales up ensuring a flawless experience for every single visitor.

Tailored to Your
Business

No templates. No cookie-cutter designs. Every project is custom-built to reflect your unique brand, your goals, and the customers you want to attract.

Fast & Secure
by Design

Speed matters for users and search engines alike. We optimise every aspect of performance from image compression and caching to hosting configuration and SSL.

Support After
Launch

The relationship doesn't end when your site goes live. We offer ongoing maintenance and support to keep your digital presence fresh, secure, and performing at its peak.

Our selected
projects

How we
work
together

A clear, collaborative process from first conversation to launch day and beyond.

Discovery & Strategy

We start with a deep-dive conversation to understand your business, goals, target audience, and competitors. This shapes everything that follows from the sitemap to the colour palette.

Design & Concept

We craft a custom design concept that brings your brand to life. You'll see exactly how your website will look and feel before a single line of code is written.

Development & Build

Your approved design becomes a fully functional, high-performance website on WordPress or Shopify. Clean code, fast load times, and SEO-optimised structure from day one.

Review & Refinement

You review the live staging site and we fine-tune every detail until it's exactly right. Nothing goes live without your full approval.

Launch & Beyond

We handle the technical launch. Domain, hosting, testing, redirects. And once you're live, we're still here for ongoing support, updates, and growth strategy.

Common
questions

What areas on the Central Coast do you service?

We work with businesses across the Central Coast, including Gosford, Erina, Terrigal, Wyong, Tuggerah, The Entrance, Avoca Beach, Woy Woy, Bateau Bay, and surrounding suburbs. We're based on the Central Coast and also work remotely with clients in Sydney, Newcastle, and across NSW.

Does website design actually matter for my business?

Yes. More than most business owners expect. A Stanford University study on web credibility found that a majority of people judge a business's credibility based on the design of its website alone, often within seconds of landing on the page.

Why does mobile speed matter so much?

Google's own research found that 53% of mobile visitors abandon a site if it takes longer than three seconds to load...

How much does a website cost on the Central Coast?

Most sites start at $2,500 for a simple brochure site. A custom build with ecommerce or more advanced features is usually $8,000 or more. Every project is quoted individually after a discovery conversation, so there are no surprises.

How long does it take to build a website?

Most projects take 4 to 6 weeks from kickoff to launch. The timeline depends on content readiness and how quickly feedback is provided. We keep the process clear and moving so there are no drawn-out delays.

Do I need to be based on the Central Coast to work with you?

Not at all. We work with businesses across Australia. We are based on the Central Coast but handle interstate projects remotely without any issues. Video calls, shared documents, and responsive communication make the process seamless regardless of where you are.

Will my website work on mobile devices?

Yes. Every website we build is mobile-first by design. We start with the smallest screen and scale up, ensuring your site looks and performs perfectly on phones, tablets, and desktops.

Can you help with SEO as well as web design?

Yes. SEO is built into every website we build from the start, covering page structure, load speed, heading hierarchy, and keyword-focused content. We also offer ongoing SEO and digital marketing services as a separate engagement.

What platform do you build websites on?

We primarily build on WordPress and Shopify. WordPress suits most businesses wanting a flexible, fully customisable site. Shopify is the best fit for ecommerce. We recommend the right platform for your needs during the initial discovery phase.
