Website Design
for Property Stylists.
Sellers and agents choose a stylist on the photos. If your site looks less considered than the homes you style, the job goes elsewhere. We build websites that let the work sell itself and take the booking on the spot.
Wisteria & Oak Styling
Property Styling & Staging
What a property stylist’s website actually has to do
Your work is visual, and so is the decision to hire you. Here is what we build in, because it is what turns a browse through the portfolio into a walkthrough booked.
A portfolio that loads like a magazine
Large, sharp images that open fast on a phone, grouped by property so people can walk through a whole home. Slow or squashed photos undo the work you put into every install, so we treat image quality as the priority it is.
Explain your approach, not just your packages
Anyone can say "full staging". What sets you apart is how you read a property: the architecture, the light, the likely buyer. Putting that in plain words is what makes a seller trust you with a home worth a million dollars.
Every service with its own page
Full install in a vacant home, key rooms only, a declutter of an occupied home, a consult for someone staying put. Each is searched for differently and suits a different seller, so each gets explained properly and can rank on its own.
Show the agents you work with
Agent logos do a lot of quiet convincing. A seller who sees their agent’s office on your site is halfway to booking, and an agent who sees their competitors there wants in.
Rank for styling in your town
Sellers search "property styling" plus their suburb the week their agent mentions it. Local pages, suburb names in the portfolio and a Google profile full of reviews put you at the top of that search instead of the stylist from the next city.
An enquiry that captures the property
Address, vacant or occupied, how many rooms and when it goes to market. It lands in your system with an instant reply, so you can book the walkthrough before the seller has called anyone else.
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 recently worked with Lachie from We Are Hike to completely redesign the Wisteria & Oak website, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. From the outset, Lachie gave us excellent advice not only around the design and functionality of the website, but also around SEO and how we could expand our reach beyond our immediate local area. And it’s already working! Since launching the new website, we’ve received an enquiry from a nearby growth area target, exactly the type of expanded geographical reach we were hoping to achieve. Lachie was knowledgeable, easy to work with, responsive and genuinely invested in making sure the website worked for our business, rather than simply looking great. We now have a website that represents Wisteria & Oak beautifully and, more importantly, is already helping new clients find us. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lachie and the team at We Are Hike. Thank you Lachie, we absolutely love what you’ve created for us!

Couldn’t recommend Lachie highly enough! From start to finish, he made the whole process incredibly easy and absolutely nailed what we were looking for. He took the time to understand our business, our brand and the overall feel we wanted, and somehow brought it together even better than we imagined. His communication was great, he was always quick to make changes, and nothing ever felt like too much trouble.

Working with Lachie has been an absolute pleasure from start to finish. He completely transformed the Tracks of Change website, taking the time to understand the vision and creating something that feels professional, modern, and easy to navigate. He was always responsive, happy to make changes, and explained everything clearly throughout the process. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and the final result exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about delivering a high-quality website and is great to work with, I couldn’t recommend Lachie more. Thanks again for all your hard work!
