Website Design
for Training Providers.
People compare three providers and enrol with the one whose dates, price and outcome are easiest to find. We build course websites that answer all three and take the enquiry on the spot.

What a training provider’s website actually has to do
Every enrolment starts with someone working out whether the course suits them, whether they qualify and when the next one runs. Here is what we build in, because it is what fills the seats.
A page for every course
Nobody searches your business name. They search the course, the ticket or the skill they need, so each one gets its own page with its own outline. Ten courses done properly is ten ways to be found instead of one.
Dates, duration and places left
The next date is the first thing anyone looks for and the thing most course sites bury or leave stale. Upcoming dates, how many days it runs and how few spots are left, on the card and on the page, because scarcity is what makes someone act today.
Say plainly who it is for
Prerequisites, minimum age, prior experience, how physical it is. Spelling that out stops the enquiries you would only have to turn away, and it reassures the people who were quietly worried they were not qualified enough to book.
Name what they walk out with
A statement of attainment, a ticket, a certificate, or simply the ability to do the job on Monday. Most people are paying to be able to do something at work, so say what that is rather than listing what is covered.
Put the trainers front and centre
Practical training is chosen on who is teaching it. Real photos, real backgrounds and what each trainer actually does for a living. On a technical course that page does more convincing than anything else on the site.
An enquiry that already names the course
Which course, which date, and whether they are booking for themselves or a crew. It lands in your system with an instant reply and enough detail to answer properly, instead of an inbox full of "can you send me some info".
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

We approached Lachlan about setting up a web page for our business and could not be happier with the end result. The process was very easy and nothing was too much trouble due to many changes we made. I’d highly recommend Lachlan if you’re considering a web design.

Our new website, created by Lachlan from We Are Hike, has just launched and we couldn't be happier with the result! Lachlan was incredibly patient and helpful throughout the process and very quick to respond to emails and calls. The live deployment was quick and smooth and we have already had some great feedback for our new look. We would highly recommend We Are Hike. Thanks again Lachlan!

Lachlan is a true professional in every area of his business. He knows the ins and outs of developing a website and also can give best advice based on your business model. I highly recommend him for this and also his incredible efficiency and quick responses. He is also very patient, an attribute not many carry. I can't really fault anything through the process in which he helped me build and develop my website from start to end.

We approached Hike to discuss a functional website that could handle our club's online membership subscriptions, apparel sales, and event registrations. Since deploying, membership management and marketing have never been easier. We're now able to reach specific member types and sponsors at any time with the click of a button through MailChimp, and track the club's membership growth each year with real data. We'd highly recommend Hike for eCommerce website design and are very happy with the end result.

Straight answers before you commit
Still weighing it up? Call Lachlan and ask directly. No pitch, no pressure.
Plans start at $299 a month with no big upfront build fee. That covers the build, hosting, updates and support. The exact number depends on how many courses need their own page and whether you want enrolments taken online.
