About Artful
Here's a bit about us.
Artful Web + Print + Design is a full service design agency based in Melbourne, Australia. We specialise in website design and development, especially in websites that not only look great and generate great business, but that you can update yourself.
We believe that if business owners or employees want to have control over their website they should. We use content management systems (CMS) such as Joomla and Wordpress to build our websites so that you can make content changes yourself if and when you need to. We also cater for a smaller minority of customers who would rather have their websites built using basic html.
Our web developers and designers are at the other end of the phone if you run into any trouble and are happy to help. Artful prides itself on being a more personal web design agency.
We enjoy our work and are at all times enthusiastic about helping our customers. We build ongoing relationships with our clients, some of which have lasted decades. As a Melbourne based company we can always be reached either by phone, or if you prefer to meet face to face ,we are more than happy to have an informal cuppa.
We are in the business of engaging people through ideas; captivating ideas, ideas that are impossible to ignore, ideas that make a difference to your brand’s future.
We are here to help!
We host Joomla, Wordpress, Opencart websites and more. Email hosting, DNS hosting on an Australian server.
We build flexible websites, in Joomla, that are easily updated and managed yourselves.
We can also convert Wordpress websites into our powerful Joomla framework.
And we ALWAYS build sites with Google in mind, optimising sites almost unconciously to give your business the best chance to be found organically in a web search.
How we work?
From our first meeting to site launch we communicate with clients regularly to ensure exceptional outcomes for all web projects.
Our Humans
Nick
AKA, "The Boss!!"
Nick is the owner and founder of Artful. He started this business over 20 years ago and is older than the internet!
He is the Artful Google expert, our #1 Sales person and all round nice guy!
Maureen
The lovely Maureen has been looking after our books and managing our domain names since 2008! However she is more than just a bookkeeper to us, she is part of the Artful family. Maureen works for us on Wednesdays, so she will attend to any of your queries then.
Chrysti
Chrysti joined the team in 2011 and although she readily denies this, she is really quite nerdy!
Chrysti is our senior designer, designing logos and websites and can help with most nerdy server queries. Since COVID she works remotely from just outside of Bendigo but is often in Donvale for catchups.
Marguerite
We welcomed the lovely Marguerite to the Artful family in 2013. We enjoyed her company in the office for a number of years until she returned to her home country, Ireland. She still works for us though, and is now is our very own Artful Leprechaun, working away whilst we are all sleeping. Marguerite is an awesome designer and has bit of a nerdy side too!
