About Me

Let me introduce myself!

Hello, it’s nice to meet you. 

My name is Tobi and I am the founder and owner of SetupDirect based on the Gold Coast, Australia. 

Creative challenges and seeing an idea come to life is something I thoroughly enjoy. 

In the past I successfully completed a Bachelor of Engineering with Honours in Civil Construction. Being able to think outside the box and problem solve, is what got me into Engineering initially. Much like

Most frequent questions and answers

The easiest way for me to bring your idea or vision to life is by letting me part of it. 

Get in touch with me via the below contact form and give me a little insight to what your vision is about. 

We can then go over everything in an initial phone call so you can get me up to speed with your idea. Here I may be able to already give you some insight as to what best practises might work for your situation and how we can work together to achieve what you require.

You probably heard of SEO – Search Engine Optimisation. This is in short a way to improve your website to make it more visible to search engines such as Google, Yahoo, Bing etc. 

When creating a new website with me, I will incorporate SEO focused work into each page to ensure your site can have a good chance of being ‘seen’ by Search Engines. 

The amount of time it takes for them to recognise your site and rank highly, depends on each niche/industry and how much volume or search you are also competing with and how much ongoing work is done towards ranking improvement. 

If you have an existing site and want me to modify your site, I will do my best to ensure it remains the same or is improved. This however cannot be guaranteed as altering existing text and tags will potentially alter your SEO to an extend which could result in short term loss. I will of course discuss this with you in detail when this is the case.

I don’t offer copy or content writing but can also get you in touch with the right people if needed. 

There will always be cheaper offerings online, especially on marketplace sites such as Etsy, Fiverr, Upwork, etc.

I base my services and pricing on my experience and the value that I strongly believe I can offer to you. 

A key component with my work is ongoing support. Once the project is finished, my work doesn’t stop there. I can be there for you in the long run to continually help you improve your business online, which the cheaper options simply do not offer.

I currently don’t offer this but can recommend you services and companies I regularly use for this and that will ensure your website will be up and running quickly.

 

Designing your website will depend on your vision and the chosen platform to suit your wanted outcome. 

This can range from WordPress based applications such as Woo-Commerce or  Elementor, through to E-Commerce focused platforms such as Shopify. 

At the time of creation, I will create your website using best practises available. 

Once the website is completed and to continually improve and optimise your website I recommend working with a Digital Marketing Agency or similar to help you with this. 

Generally my service and price I will offer you will include the initial setup of your website until it is live. 

I do offer ongoing updates packages. This is priced accordingly to your needs and amount of updates you may require. 

For all projects I like to offer instalment payments. Depending on the size of your project, this includes an upfront 50% deposit. 

This allows me to start on your project and gives me confidence that we can proceed in your project. 

Throughout the project, I can and will keep you updated and provide you with previews where applicable. This shows you that the work is being completed and also allows for you to review the progress shown. I always include 2 rounds of revisions but at additional costs can offer you as many as required.

Once you are happy with the final result, the remaining balance is to be paid prior to handover and the site going live. 

All invoices will be sent to you separately via email.

I am no lawyer or someone that has the ability to provide advice on what you should and should not include in your Terms & Conditions, Data Collection / Privacy / Shipping or Return Policies.

I can create the actual  website pages for you with generic text, however it is your responsibility to ensure legally all terms and policies displayed meet your needs are in line with your business or your needs.
