Local Gympie Business Website Builder
We Build The Best Websites For Busy Small Business Owners In Gympie





About Gympie Web Design
Gympie Web Design is a family-owned digital agency based in Gympie, QLD 4570, led by Rhys Everitt (Graduate of The Year 2025, Champions Program) and Olivia Everitt (Master of Business, $13.2M+ in secured funding).
Our husband-and-wife team combines award-winning technical expertise with proven strategic communication skills to deliver websites that don’t just look good – they generate measurable results for local businesses.
We specialise in working with Gympie’s “Mum & Dad” business owners – people like us who understand the challenge of running a business while juggling family commitments. We know your website often gets pushed down the to-do list, which is exactly why we handle everything for you, from strategy to ongoing maintenance.
While we primarily serve businesses in the Gympie region, our reputation has led to referral-based projects across Queensland and beyond. Contact us today to discover how we can transform your online presence.
We Build High-Performing Websites
Gympie Web Design isn’t your typical web agency. We’re trained by E-Business Institute, one of Australia’s leading digital marketing education providers, and we apply enterprise-level strategies to small business websites.
Beautiful design matters, but we’re obsessed with what happens after your website goes live: Do customers find you? Do they contact you? Does your website generate more revenue than it costs?
Our process starts with thorough competitor research and strategic keyword analysis – understanding exactly what your potential customers are searching for before we write a single line of code. Using our certifications in WordPress Development, SEO & UX Optimised Design, and Growth Digital Marketing, we engineer websites that rank on Google’s first page and convert visitors into paying customers.
The result? A website that works as your hardest-working employee – generating leads 24/7 while you focus on running your business.

Rhys Everitt
Owner | Web Designer | SEO Specialist
About Rhys
From Queensland Police to Award-Winning Web Designer
Born and raised in Gympie, Rhys brings an unconventional background to web design. After 11 years as a sworn member of the Queensland Police Service – serving communities across Cairns, Kingaroy, Imbil, and the Wide Bay – he transitioned to helping local businesses succeed online by reskilling himself in Web Design & SEO in 2022.
Industry-Leading Training & Awards
In 2025, Rhys completed E-Business Institute’s elite 12-month Champions Digital Entrepreneurs Master’s Program, earning top honours:
- Graduate of The Year 2025 (joint winner)
- Ultimate Champions Cup (joint winner)
- High Achievers Award
- Award for Excellence
- Website Build of the Year 2024 (Digital Investors Community)
He holds multiple certifications, including Certified Website Designer, SEO & UX Optimised Website Design, WordPress Development, and Growth Digital Marketing.
Rhys has been featured on Local Web Expert and the Digital Investors Podcast as a recognised authority in regional web design and SEO.
Why His Background Matters
The Police Officer Advantage: Thorough research, meticulous attention to detail, and problem-solving under pressure. Every website is approached like an investigation – nothing left to chance, everything is data-driven.
The Local Edge: Born in Gympie, Rhys understands regional Queensland businesses because he lives and works here. He knows your market, your competitors, and your customers.
The No-BS Approach: Clear, honest communication in plain English. No confusing jargon, no false promises – just straight talk about what your business needs and realistic timelines for results.
A Partner Who Actually Cares
With a “no worries” attitude and genuine patience for business owners who aren’t tech-savvy, Rhys makes SEO and web design understandable. His police service background means he’s wired to help and protect – now he channels that into your business’s online success.
If you need someone who’ll care about your business as much as you do, Rhys is your guy.
