Adrian Hollstein — Freelance Web Developer, Gold Coast
Meet Your Developer
Adrian Hollstein — Founder & Lead Developer of WebDevise.

It started with a PS1 games review site — built out of pure curiosity at age 10. That curiosity grew into a career. After completing a Bachelor of Information Technology majoring in Software Development, I spent a decade working with businesses across Australia and kept noticing the same problem.

Great local businesses were invisible online — not because they weren't good at what they did, but because no one had taken the time to actually understand their business before building their website. I founded WebDevise to fix that.

As a Gold Coast-based developer, I lead every client engagement personally — from the first conversation through to launch and beyond. You're dealing directly with the person building your site. No account managers. No hand-off. No shortcuts.

“Outside of work, I'm a husband, dad of three, and owner of a groodle named Rogue. I bring that same care to every client I work with.” — Adrian Hollstein, Founder & Developer

What I Build

From simple business websites to full e-commerce stores — built properly, not bodged together from a template.
Business Websites

Clean, fast, conversion-focused sites built to turn visitors into leads. Every page designed with your customers in mind.

WordPress Development

Custom WordPress themes and plugins — no cookie-cutter templates. Built properly, maintained easily.

E-commerce Stores

Shopify and WooCommerce stores built to sell. Intuitive product pages, fast checkout, mobile ready.

Landing Pages & Funnels

High-converting landing pages for Google Ads, Facebook campaigns, and lead generation. Built to convert.

Website Redesigns

Got an outdated site? I'll modernise it — faster load times, better mobile experience, and a design that doesn't embarrass you.

Ongoing Maintenance

Monthly updates, security patches, backups, and support so your site stays fast, secure, and up to date.

Why Freelance

Why Choose a Gold Coast Freelancer Over an Agency?

Agencies have overheads, junior staff, and account managers standing between you and the work. I don't.
👤
No Account Managers

You deal directly with me — the person building your site. No middlemen, no Chinese whispers, no delays.

💸
Lower Overheads

No agency rent, no junior staff markup. You get senior-level work at a fraction of agency prices.

🧭
Local Knowledge

I know the Gold Coast market. From Broadbeach to Burleigh, I understand what local businesses and customers need.

Fast Communication

Same timezone, responsive turnaround. No waiting days for a reply or chasing your account manager for updates.
