Website Design
for Gyms.
People decide to join on a whim, usually late at night, usually after weighing you up against the franchise down the road. We build gym sites that answer the price, the timetable and the sign-up before that moment passes.

Gyms we have built for
Live client sites, desktop and mobile. Built to show the floor properly and turn a late-night scroll into a membership.

What a gym website actually has to do
Joining is an impulse that goes cold fast. Here is what we build in, because it is what turns that impulse into a member.
Put the membership price on the page
Hiding pricing behind an enquiry form is the fastest way to lose someone comparing three gyms. Rates, what is included and whether there is a lock-in, stated plainly, because that is the first thing anyone wants to know.
Let them join at eleven at night
That is when people decide, and it is nowhere near staffed hours. Sign-up runs through the site and into the system you already use, so the membership starts then and there rather than waiting on a call back.
A page for every way to train
Reformer pilates, boxing, the weights floor, group classes, personal training, sauna and recovery. Each gets its own page, because someone searching for a pilates class is not the same person as someone chasing 24 hour gym access.
A timetable people can trust
A class schedule that is three weeks out of date costs you more than not having one. Yours is simple to update, readable on a phone, and clear about which classes are booked and which you can just turn up to.
Show the actual gym
Real photos of your floor, your equipment and your members, not stock images of a chrome gym in another country. Walking in for the first time is intimidating, and seeing the room beforehand is what settles it.
A page for every location
If you run more than one site, each needs its own page with its address, access hours, timetable and photos. One combined page ranks in neither town and leaves people guessing which gym they are looking at.
How we build your site
Six stages from first conversation to a site that keeps bringing in work. Click through and see exactly what happens at each one.
Discovery
A free, no-obligation chat about what you actually need the website to do.
We go through your goals, the jobs you want more of and the ones you would rather stop getting. We look at who you are up against locally and what your customers want to know before they pick up the phone.
You come out of that conversation with a clear scope and a fixed monthly number. No discovery fee, no vague quote that quietly grows later.
- Your goals and best jobs mapped out
- A proper look at your local competition
- Clear scope and a fixed price up front
Research and planning
We work out what the site needs to say, and in what order, before anyone designs a thing.
We plan out the pages you need, the question each one has to answer, and the path from someone landing on your site to picking up the phone. Get that right and the design has an easy job.
This is also where the groundwork for showing up on Google goes in, so the site launches ready to be found instead of needing a rescue six months later.
- Every page planned around a real search
- A clear path from visitor to enquiry
- Groundwork for Google done early
Design and development
We design and build your homepage first, so you see the real thing rather than a picture of it.
You get a working homepage on a private link, not a flat mockup. Click through it, scroll it, open it on your phone, show it to whoever you trust for an honest opinion. It is far easier to give useful feedback on something real.
Once you are happy with the look and the feel, we build out the rest of the site to match it.
- Your homepage built first, not mocked up
- Review it live on any device
- The rest follows once you approve it
Optimisation and testing
We make it quick, check it everywhere, and change anything that is not right.
Most of your customers will meet you on a phone, often on patchy regional reception, so we cut the load time down until the site opens straight away. Then every page gets checked across phones, tablets and desktop.
This is also your round of changes. Reword a section, swap a photo, add the service you forgot about. Nothing goes live until you have signed off on it.
- Opens fast, even on poor reception
- Checked on every screen size
- Your changes made before anyone sees it
Launch
We handle the technical side so nothing breaks on the day.
Domain, hosting, security and the switch itself are all sorted for you. If you already have a website, we make sure every old page points to its new home, so the traffic and the Google rankings you have built up come across with you.
That last part is where most rebuilds quietly go wrong, and it is the difference between launching ahead and starting again from scratch.
- Domain, hosting and security sorted for you
- Your existing Google rankings carried across
- Live without downtime
Support and growth
A website without traffic is a car without fuel.
Hosting, updates, backups and monitoring are covered every month, so the site stays quick and secure without you thinking about it. Need something changed? Send an email and it gets done.
From there we push on your local search, your Google profile and your reviews, so the site keeps climbing and keeps bringing in work.
- Hosting, updates and backups handled
- Changes made when you need them
- Local SEO and reviews to keep it growing
Rated 5.0 by the businesses we build for
We’ve been working with Lachlan for 6 months now and couldn’t be happier with the service. The site build is fantastic and the ongoing support since has been great also. Highly recommend.

I was fortunate enough to come across Hike's website and have the opportunity to work with Lachlan. I had very limited understanding and experience in developing a profile online and his services made that effortless. The process was streamlined and allowed for plenty of personalised input and flexibility along the way. His services are well priced, and he always made an effort to respond to my queries regardless of the time or day. I started with a vision and can comfortably say that it has evolved to something greater. I look forward to collaborating with Lachlan again in the future.

I have had the pleasure of working with Lachlan from Hike a few times. His level of expertise and dedication to his work was exceptional. He was an absolute lifesaver when it came to fixing issues related to my website. He also provided valuable insights and recommendations that helped me improve my website. I cannot recommend him enough!

We recently engaged We Are Hike for our website creation, hosting and email. The team at We Are Hike were professional in all facets of this service requirement. Lachlan was always attentive, available, helpful and understanding of our needs for the website. The whole process was easy from start to finish with the ability to regularly update, review, add and change the website. We would recommend We Are Hike for all your website needs.
