About Us

Our Story

"Young and dynamic!" tyranny - web design
Since our beginning, Tyranny has created web sites with a twist. We provide an affordable way to market your business online.

When looking for a new site it's important you hire a company that can handle the design side and the programming side as well. We hear all too often nightmare stories of customers ending up with a well programmed site but the actual look and feel looks like something from 10 years ago.
Another absolute must is getting SEO/Google marketing included. If you don't have SEO it's like setting up the best party then not inviting anyone. Even if you can't afford it now, it's important that your website is ready for SEO. Otherwise you might be paying more down the track to re-build it!

Don't want to talk to a pushy salesman? Well that's not what we do, but contact us via email here.

We recently had a client provide us with a referral (you gotta love word of mouth), in which they said to a potential client "Tyranny has a refreshingly open and ethical approach to web design" - Melbourne Acting Academy. We loved this because not only did the potential client mention this to us, but it gave us a chance to reflect on how we operate. We came to the conclusion that actions will always scream louder than promises so we will always give you, the client, 110%!

Tyranny excels in the design and development of user friendly web sites. We will create your website in a way that promotes your services and products.

All of our designs are custom made to meet the client's unique needs. To do this, we analyse your existing web site and your competitors trends.

Problems? We can help!

Most business have some form of online presence, and so we frequently end up completely rebuilding older web sites that no longer have any use. Old sites can have many problems including not working in the major browsers, not ranking in search engines, use of frames, or the site is made entirely in flash.

We have established a large client base and can tackle a number of creative briefs. We produce a high standard of work across a range of styles.

Does your site have any of these problems?:

Your site does not appear on search engines for anything other than your company name
Your site was built entirely in Flash (search engines do not recognise flash)
Your site is large and slow to load
Your site is a template that you bought only because it was cheap
Your site is hard to navigate
Your site was built using html frames
Your site "breaks", displays oddly, or has bugs on some browsers
Your site was built by someone that works for your business (and so it looks un-professional)
Your site is not up-to-date with your products or services
Is an old "1st-generation" site that looks like it was built in 1996
Your site is out classed by your competitors, in design or user friendliness

If so, then you really need to re-develop your current site.

At Tyranny we build well designed websites that are very easy to use, standard compliant, optimised for search engines and display well in all major browsers.

<p>
            As a new company that provides a lot of different services I felt I needed a website that showcased this. I asked Paul Wagstaff from Tyranny to build my site and he came and met me at my home and went over all the info I wanted in detail and really listened to what I needed to promote my business.
</p><p>
Paul came up with an awesome design that was different and really stood out from all the other electrical and air conditioning companies. People who see my site love it and regularly comment on how great it looks.
</p><p>
One day Paul rang me about Google and asked if he could try something so I told him to go for it. Paul has now managed to get me at the top of the first search page with certain key words relating to my business. I now average 5 calls a day from people who find me on Google and about 75% of those people I get work from.
</p><p>
My business has grown by 50% alone through the internet which is all thanks to Paul. I would highly recommend him to anybody wanting to build a website and grow their business.

<a rel="nofollow" href="http://vandavic.com.au/" target="_blank"><img style="float: left; padding-right: 30px;" src="scnShots/vanda_lrg.gif" alt="adwords" /></a>
            Vanda is extremely happy with our new web page built by Tyranny. Starting with a demanding brief on the look and feel of the site Paul listened and interpreted our requirements to perfection.
Our site requirements were relatively complex; including numerous components, which look similar with similar SKU numbers - quite a challenge to some one unfamiliar with the products or their use. Paul rose to the challenge, and the web page came together far quicker and with a lot less hassle then we had feared. At all times Tyranny was professional and pleasant to deal with, and was both responsive and timely.
</p><p>
The web page has already proven very beneficial, as we can refer clients and talk them through solutions - so much easier when they are looking at actual images/diagrams.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Tyranny to other companies.
</p><p>
We have had very positive feed back from our customers regarding the web site, with one of our major customers going as far as saying it's the best website he has come across for product information. Comments like that make it all worthwhile and justify the expense of doing it with professionals.

            It was fantastic working with Paul from Tyranny. I knew what I wanted my website to look like but I had no idea where to start. Paul enabled me to transfer this idea into a visually appealing website. Associates have seen my new website and they're all blown away with how good it looks. I was especially pleased with Paul's efficiency. I would recommend Tyranny Web Design to anybody.

<h2>Tai Chi Kung Fu Institute</h2>

Tyranny has been very helpful in getting our first professionally created website up and running – especially during the Christmas/New Year season when most other web designers were on holidays! The website has received great feedback from users, and we are getting better response than in the past with our old website.
Paul (Tyranny) is also regularly checking our Google rankings and constantly working on improving our ranking if needed. In most cases, we are on page one of the most commonly searched terms in our industry – this was achieved with Paul’s consistent efforts.
<br />Thank-you Paul! We are happy to recommend Paul for anyone looking to set up or improve their website.
