Why choose PogoStick Web Services?
At PogoStick our philosophy is maximum service at minimum cost. We have plenty of happy clients, impressed with our speedy, professional service and our tiny invoices. In fact our low overheads mean we can undercut the competition by hundreds of dollars. For example, you could get an expensive website from Freeparking and pay $699+GST for much the same thing you get with PogoStick, plus when the 12 months are up, you’ll be paying them over $200 a year in hosting fees plus if you want any more than the 5 pages they offer its $100 a page! As you can see it could quickly start to add up. Even the Cheap as Chips website design company has a minimum starting price of over $800 and that’s only for a very basic 3-page CMS site, and that doesn’t even including hosting of $40 a month! Another overpriced website company!
So if you’ve decided it’s time to dive into the online world and get your business, social club or family a website of its own but you’ve been put off by expensive monthly fees and setup costs then you’ve come to the right place. PogoStick is here to put an end to that and offer you this unbeatable cheap website package, with no nasty strings attached.

What if I don’t like my cheap website?
When you’re choosing a new service provider, there can be some ‘fear of the unknown’ and the last thing any of us want is to get stung with a bad deal, especially when you’re in business and every dollar counts. It’s important to us that our clients are happy with choosing PogoStick Web Services and we work really hard to make sure they are.
In the rare event you want to take your business to another web design company and we can’t convince you to stay, we will make the move as hassle-free as possible, refunding up to 6 months of hosting fees paid in advance and delivering your website files and domain name, ready for another provider to work with. Peace of mind is knowing that, if you have to, you can easily switch, and it won’t cost you a thing.

Website Optimisation Service
If you’ve already got a website (if you don’t talk to us – we can help!) chances are you’re a bit concerned if it seems to be gathering dust. I mean you probably paid a lot of money to get it setup and now you’re most likely paying hundreds of dollars in ongoing hosting and domain registration fees. So what sort of return are you getting on your investment? No business can afford to throw money down the drain, especially while trying to stay afloat during a difficult economy.
The fact is your website should actually be making you money, either increasing sales, direct or indirect, or by reducing your running costs. I know strategies to not only reduce the cost of your website itself but also ways to monetize it, creating a source of passive income (income while you sleep!).
Ask yourself …
Too many businesses rush into throwing a website together without giving it enough thought, which is crazy because everything else seems to have a business plan! So really think about what you want to achieve with your website and how you will measure its progress over time.
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and Social Media Optimisation (SMO)
Your site is no good to you if it can’t be found. This is where search engine optimisation (or SEO, also known as SEM – Search Engine Marketing) plays an important role in making sure your site is jumping up and down and getting noticed by search engines, Google in particular. You also need to make sure the people who find your site and the people you’re trying to target (qualified leads).
The rapid growth of social media (Facebook, YouTube and Twitter) also mean you need to have a business plan that includes optimising for social media and benefiting from the power of viral marketing.
This service includes reviewing your site’s content, your own marketing strategy, use of Google AdWords and links to other sites.
