Website redesign · Australia-wide

A website redesign with a fixed quote, and nothing lost on the way over.

A website redesign with MP Launch, based in Adelaide and working across Australia, replaces your existing site with a new one for a fixed price, quoted in writing before any work starts, with your domain and email untouched, your content carried across, and every old page redirected to its replacement.

What's The Damage, an Australian website cost guide last verified November 2026, says a redesign at $2,000 to $8,000 usually beats a rebuild when the system your website runs on still works and you own it. A redesign with us is our normal build with your existing content as the starting point, so it is quoted the way every build is: one fixed price in writing, before any work starts, whether we start from your old site or from nothing.

We're Adelaide-based and rebuild sites for service businesses anywhere in Australia. Most of the sites we've built replaced something that already existed — see them on our work page.

Why business owners put a redesign off

  • The current site was built years ago and looks it — especially on a phone, where most of your visitors are.
  • Nobody can update it: the person who built it has moved on, and the logins went with them.
  • You're worried a rebuild breaks the things that work — your email, your Google presence, the links people have saved.
  • Every quote you've had was hourly and open-ended, so the real price was 'we'll see'.
  • The old pages have history with Google, and a rebuild that ignores them throws that away.

What switching over actually involves

The redesign itself is the visible half. The other half is the switch — and the switch is where careless rebuilds lose email, links and Google visibility. This is the checklist we run on every one:

Your domain stays yours

It can stay exactly where it's registered — we point it at the new site with a two-record change. No transfer required, no ownership games.

Your email keeps working

If your email already works, we build around it and change nothing. The switch is planned so mail flow is never interrupted.

Your content carried across

We work from your existing site's real content — services, photos, wording — then improve it, rather than handing you a blank template and a content request.

Every old page redirected

Each old address gets a permanent redirect to its replacement, so saved links, printed URLs and Google's index all find the new pages instead of an error.

A preview before anything changes

The whole new site goes up on a preview address first. You review it page by page on your own phone before the switch is even scheduled.

A no-downtime cutover

Your old site stays live until the moment the new one takes over. The switch itself is a DNS change, not a gap.

What does a website redesign cost?

One fixed price, agreed in writing before any work starts, so it does not grow with the hours. A rebuild is quoted the same way as a build from scratch, because it is the same job with a head start.

How a redesign runs

1

Show us the current site

A short call while we look at what you have. Then you get a fixed quote in writing, with the monthly support it needs, before any work starts.

2

We build on a preview address

Your content carried over and improved, the design brought up to now. Your live site isn't touched.

3

You review it page by page

On your own phone, at your own pace. Changes happen on the preview until you're happy.

4

The switch

A DNS change points your domain at the new site, the redirects go live for every old page, and the new sitemap is resubmitted to Google the same day.

Straight answers on price

Every redesign is quoted. You get one fixed price for the rebuild, in writing, before any work starts, and it is worked out the same way as a build from scratch, because it is the same job with a head start. Every one includes the redirect map and the DNS switch.

After launch, a website has to live somewhere, so every site we host has a monthly fee for hosting and security. Your quote shows exactly what it covers before you agree, and anything more, like website changes each month, is optional and listed separately.

Reviews

What clients say about their launch.

Real 5-star Google reviews from Australian businesses we've put online.

We brought MP Launch in to get us found on Google and it's made a real difference. Peter took the time to understand the business, moved everything over smoothly with no downtime, and keeps us updated every month on how we're tracking. Genuinely feels like they care about the results, not just getting paid. Really happy we made the switch.

I had an excellent experience working with MP Launch and Peter to create my website CU & D. From the very beginning, Peter was professional, responsive and genuinely invested in bringing my vision to life. He took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and delivered a website that looks fantastic, is easy to navigate and perfectly represents my business… I highly recommend MP Launch to anyone looking for a professional, high-quality website and outstanding customer service.

Can't begin to explain how happy I am with my new business set up. Peter is very professional and listened to and executed my vision I'm already seeing an increase in business because of his work.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a website redesign cost in Australia?

What's The Damage, an Australian website cost guide (last verified November 2026), says a redesign at $2,000 to $8,000 usually beats a rebuild when the system your website runs on still works and you own it. Ours is a fixed quote. You tell us what you have now and what the new site has to do, and you get one price for the rebuild in writing, with the monthly support it needs set out beside it, before any work starts.

Is a rebuild cheaper than a new website?

It is quoted the same way, because a rebuild is not less work. You gain your existing content, but we inherit mapping every old address so your Google listings still land, moving a live domain without breaking your email, and a site people already have opinions about. What changes is the timing.

Should I fix my old website or start again?

Fix your old website if it works well on a phone and someone can still safely update it. Start again if two or more of these five signs are true: you are scared to press update, pages take more than three seconds on your own phone, your designer left and nobody else will touch it, adding a simple page needs a quote, or you pay for plugins (add-on software) you do not recognise. That is the plain test from Creative Baguette, a Sydney web studio (May 2026). A rebuild carries your content over, and every old page gets a permanent redirect, an automatic forward from the old address to its replacement. We quote it as a fixed price in writing before any work starts.

Will I lose my Google rankings?

Nobody can honestly promise your rankings survive any rebuild — anyone who guarantees that is guessing. What we promise is the work Google itself documents for a site move: every old page gets a permanent redirect to its replacement, your titles and content are carried over and improved rather than thrown away, and the new sitemap is resubmitted so Google is told exactly where everything went.

Can I keep my domain and my email?

Yes to both. The domain is yours and stays yours — it can stay right where it is registered, and we point it at the new site with a two-record change. If your email already works, nothing about it changes: we build around your existing setup rather than forcing a migration.

What happens to my old site while you build?

It stays live and untouched. The new site is built on a preview address you can open on your phone and review page by page. The switch is a DNS change at the end — your old site is up until the moment the new one takes over, so there is no gap where customers find nothing.

How long does a redesign take?

The pages in your quote are live within 48 hours once we have your content and any access we need, or we refund your first payment. Anything your quote gives its own date, like bookings, logins, payments or links to your software, is delivered by that date. The promises are written into your quote before you accept it.

Do I have to pay monthly?

Every site we host has a monthly fee that covers its hosting and security, and your quote shows exactly what it includes before you agree. Anything more, like website changes each month, enquiries texted to your phone, a business number or business email, is optional and listed separately on the same quote.

Do you redesign online stores?

Yes. A store is quoted after a look, because product counts, payment setups and platform choices vary too much for a blind fixed price to be honest. The same goes for bookings, member logins and anything with a database behind it. Send the address and we will come back with a fixed quote for the build and for what it costs to look after.

What if my old website was built by someone I cannot reach anymore?

Common, and rarely a problem. If you control the domain, we can rebuild from what is publicly visible — the content on your live site — without needing the old builder's logins at all. If you do not control the domain, that is the first thing we sort out, and we will tell you honestly how hard it looks before you commit.

Send us the site you've got

Tell us the address of your current website and what's wrong with it. We'll send you a fixed quote for the rebuild, and tell you straight whether it's worth doing now or worth waiting on.

Or leave your number and I'll call you.

Sending this asks MP Launch to contact you by phone, text or email about this service. No newsletter, no list, and you can reply STOP to any text.
