Websites for small business. Apps of our own.

Queensland, Australia

Websites that make the phone ring.

Most small-business websites are slow, look like everyone else's and never make the phone ring. We build yours by hand, so it loads in a blink, looks like nobody else and turns visitors into customers.

Websites from $1,200no trackersmade in Queensland

Four businesses. Four very different websites.

Example sites we designed and built from scratch to show the range. They are real, working websites: open one and try it on your phone.

  1. 01 Trades · Cairns

    Fern & Flour

Yours could be next.

We take on a handful of websites at a time, so every one gets the care these did.

Plan your website

We make our own apps, too.

Four apps for iPhone and Android, designed, written and looked after by us in Queensland. The same hands build your website.

A closer look.

Couchful, Glazesmith and RoadRules come first. Scroll through each one.

Packages, what's included and how we work

From first chat to live, in four steps.

  1. Talk

    We start with a conversation about your business, your customers and what the site needs to do. Then you get a clear written quote.

  2. Design

    We design the pages and the words with you, and you see the design on your own phone before anything is built.

  3. Build

    We build it fast and accessible, and test it on real phones and browsers before it goes anywhere near your customers.

  4. Launch and handover

    We put it live on your domain and hand everything over in plain English: the files, the accounts and how to make small changes.

Josh Gee Founder, Galix Studios

Hi, I'm Josh.

I started Galix Studios in 2026 to make the kind of website I would want for my own business: fast, honest, and built to bring in work. I design and build every site and every app myself, here in Queensland.

When you work with Galix, you deal with me, from the first chat to the day your site goes live. No account managers, no hand-offs and no templates.

The G in our logo is a sun rising over the horizon. It stands for the idea the studio started with: good software, made for everyone.
