Why invest in a bespoke website?
Versatility
Bespoke websites can incorporate all the tools and features that your individual business needs. No more one-size-fits-all approach, or cookie cutter solutions, bespoke websites provide your brand with a powerful online home that is tailor made for you.
Trust
Attracting the right customers in the first place and encouraging them to continue buying from you, is largely dependent on trust. Professionally built websites provide your audience with a seamless experience that instills trust in them and makes them feel confident buying from you again.
Growth
Bespoke websites are approached with your specific vision and goals in mind, forming a solid foundation on which to grow. They also incorporate future-focused features and integrations to support your ongoing success.
Alignment
Designing a website from the ground up with your target audience in mind helps us to optimise your site for their user journey and shopping habits, making the most of your marketing efforts and maximising your ROI.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I don't need a completely new site?
Depending on your individual pain points with your current website, a complete re-build isn't always needed. Our Shopify Spruce Up service is perfect for brands that are looking to refresh their site with a new theme and look over a quick week-long intensive, and who don't need any custom coding or bespoke features.
Are any other platforms available?
Over our time in business we have tried many of the well-known website platforms and have chosen to focus on Shopify and Wordpress for their reliability and flexibility. That being said, if there is a specific platform that you would like to use, such as Squarespace we are happy to discuss options with you and accomodate where possible.
Can you host my website for me?
Absolutely! Our Wordpress sites are built on our own hosting via Siteground, and we're more than happy to continue hosting it for you after your project has finished via an ongoing maintenance plan. Shopify websites generally need to be transferred to the client so that you have full access to all its features, however if you would like to keep us onboard to make edits for you this can be arranged at the end of your project for an ongoing monthly fee.
What deliverables are included?
- 2 visual concepts (homepage only) outlining look and feel.
- 1 fully developed concept shown as a complete collection of wireframes for approval and sign-off before build commences

Are payment plans available?
We want to make your project as affordable as possible for you. Our projects are divided into monthly payments as standard for the duration of your project, however if you require a longer plan we may also be able to help at our discretion. Reach out to Vicky at vicky@rarestudio.com.au to enquire. Please note that site ownership or transfer of the design / intellectual property will not take place until your project balance has been paid in full.
What if I want to make bigger updates after our project?
No problem at all, we offer our VIP Day service for this very situation! If there's anything else that you need after your project has finished that doesn't require an ongoing maintenance plan, our VIP Days are perfect for getting things wrapped up exactly as you need them.
We can also provide a standalone quote for custom development work, such as custom sections and Liquid coding depending on your requirements.
