Our Work
Gift of the Gab
In late 2020, Special Education and Behaviour Management Consultant Gabrielle Mead approached us to redesign her aging website, which was build by us many years ago.
We refreshed the site in line with her new branding, incorporated new facilities to manage workshops and Zoom consulting and launched her brand new podcast Stories from the Chalkface which is available on iTunes, Google Podcasts and Spotify.
The site uses Elementor page builder technology to deliver pixel-perfect responsive design regardless of the device.
SundaraVirtualYoga.com
Nicole Wood approached Asporea for redesign assistance for her website which she had been building and managing for some time. We used WordPress+Elementor to completely re imagine the design and incorporate new time-saving features including the ability for users to purchase Zoom classes and receive automatic enrollment. Users can also pay for personal appointments, choosing a time and locking in a Zoom appointment which requires zero intervention from the client. The site is also setup for memberships and the deliver of online classes.
Yoginithreads.com
When Sydney based Hatha Yoga and Yin Yoga teacher, and sound healer Barbara Courtille started talking to us about her exciting business plans we convinced her that her Squarespace website was not the solution for long-term, cost-effective growth.
We helped her migrate her site to WordPress, built her a new online store and helped her host her events through her website potentially saving her thousands of dollars in third-party service fees in future years.
The new Yoginithreads.com website now integrates many website features she used to go to third parties for, saving on costs and getting her a larger slice of revenue per sale.
CastFromDungeonFX.com
When he’s not creating architecting special effects models for blockbuster action movies like The Wolverine and Max Max The Fury, model maker Grant Biffin sells custom cast and hand painted Zombies, Warewolves, Ned Kelly memorabilia and more through his website at castfromdungeonfx.com.

We were proud to assist TheatreArtLife in implementing LearnDash to expand their education offering to members. Specific to this implementation was the requirement for deep integration within the existing website at WooCommerce infrstructure.
Girls’ Night In
We were asked to rebuild the website for the charity book series Girls’ Night In. Bestselling authors Jessica Adams, Chris Manby and Fiona Walker created the charity fundraising Girls’ Night In series more than 20 years ago, with the support of the Curtis Brown literary agency.
The paperback collection, together with its spin-off journal, audiobook and children’s’ sister project Kids’ Night In (Puffin and HarperCollins) has involved some of the biggest names in publishing and entertainment including Stella McCartney, J.K.Rowling, Kate Moss, Bob Geldof, Nick Hornby and Candace Bushnell. The series across America, Europe and Australia between 2000 and 2014 raised a total of $3.5 million in revenue for War Child.
We featured the profiles of all 366 authors. This was done using custom fields, with each author having a record in the site. These were then incorporated into various views including a sortable view of contributors by their contributions.
Sun Sign School
We built the astrology learning site Sun Sign School for world-renowned astrologer Jessica Adams. The site creates a mutlimedia learning experience for students. Downloadable course materials, podcasts, video and other media creates a learning-rich experience. Students can purchase and complete courses through the website.

DebbieFrank.com
When Royal Astrologer and media personality Debbie Frank contacted us for a website refresh, we were delighted. We were able to increase Debbie’s efficiency and improve the SEO quality of the website by creating custom data entry fields for her horoscope content. We are also assisting with digital marketing and branding, enabling her to secure the .com domain name in addition to debbiefrank.co.uk.

On completion of all course requirements, students are certified through the website.
Pamela Rushby
Pamela Rushby has been a client for many years and her website is a showcase over her award-winning Children’s literature and Young Adult works.
We recently updated Pam’s website with Elementor’s Theme Builder module and the Hello Elementor theme. This provides speed and pin-point design with responsive website elements. This means that the website looks great on any device, whether it’s a desktop, mobile or tablet.
During this update, we also used Advanced Custom Fields to create a post-type for her books, allowing books to be easily entered into a backend dashboard for consistent display using a simple and elegant template.

Astrolutely.com
We worked with Royal Astrologer Penny Thornton to reduce her hosting costs and improve her website performance. Her website astrolutely.com is seen by millions of people every week and this volume of traffic requires high-performance hosting and precision tuning. We were able to deliver hosting at a fraction of the cost she was paying mainstream providers, and all hosted on her own dedicated web server.
