The Tech Genius

Website development, SEO and digital marketing for Melbourne businesses

Melbourne runs on retail, hospitality and education — laneway cafés, Chapel Street and Bourke Street shopfronts, a university sector that draws students from around the world — and a D2C brand scene clustered around Cremorne and Richmond that sells nationally from a warehouse in the suburbs. We are a social media marketing agency and web design company in India for those businesses, at published prices, with no Melbourne office.

In one paragraph

The Tech Genius is a website development company Melbourne businesses can work with remotely from India for websites, ecommerce stores, SEO and social retainers, and custom software, with no office in Melbourne. The invoice is in AUD as an export of services — no GST is added under the ATO's business-to-business rule once we have your ABN — and the price list is published here before you get in touch.

What Melbourne businesses run into, and what we do about it

  • D2C brands need a store that sells, then a feed that fills it

    The brands around Cremorne and Richmond sell on Shopify and grow on Instagram, TikTok and Meta ads, and the two halves have to agree with each other. We build the store and, as a social media marketing agency, produce the content that drives it — with reporting on orders rather than reach.

  • Hospitality and retail are found by suburb, and the suburbs are many

    A café in Fitzroy competes with the one in Collingwood a few streets away, and a customer searches the suburb, not the city. The seo services that matter here are local: a Google Business Profile that is actually current, suburb pages that say something true, and reviews handled every week rather than once a quarter.

  • Education providers answer to regulators and to overseas students

    Colleges and training providers in Melbourne market to international students under a regulatory regime that shapes what a course page may claim. We build course catalogues and enquiry flows that respect those rules, in the languages your prospective students actually read, and price the translation as a real line item.

  • Who ranks as an seo agency Melbourne buyers see first is not the question

    Chasing that head term against national firms is a poor use of a Melbourne retainer. A seo company should instead show you which searches — sector plus suburb, product plus problem — you can win in months rather than years, and we put that list in front of you before the retainer starts.

Why Melbourne clients work with us

  • Paid in Australian dollars, without a wire

    Local AUD account details through a licensed cross-border payment provider mean an ordinary domestic transfer for your bookkeeper, in your currency, with no conversion on your side.

  • GST, handled correctly for a Victorian business

    The ATO's business-to-business rule for non-resident suppliers means that if you are GST-registered and using our services for your business, no GST is added. Provide your ABN and we reference it.

  • No office in Melbourne, said plainly

    We are not in Southbank or Docklands and we will not pretend to be. What you get is published pricing, a verifiable Indian GST registration, a small paid first step, and calls booked into the afternoon window we share.

  • Content produced, not just scheduled

    For a Melbourne brand the social retainer covers production — product photography direction, short video, captions — plus planning and reporting against enquiries and sales, because a scheduler alone does not move the number that matters.

Questions from Melbourne clients

Do you have an office in Melbourne?

No. Delivery is remote from India, with calls in the shared afternoon window and a written daily update. A web design company Melbourne businesses can walk into is not what we are, and we say so on the first call.

Are you a digital marketing agency in Melbourne or a web design company?

Both, plus software. One team builds websites and ecommerce stores, runs SEO and social retainers, and writes custom software and WhatsApp automation. Being a digital marketing agency Melbourne brands can also use for the build removes the handover between two vendors.

Do you add GST, and what currency is the invoice in?

The invoice is in AUD as an export of services from India. If you are GST-registered and using our services for your business, the ATO's business-to-business rule applies and no GST is added — give us your ABN.

How much overlap does a Melbourne business get?

Melbourne is four and a half hours ahead of India, five and a half during daylight saving from October to April. That is three to four live hours through your afternoon, with the rest handled by a written daily update and calls booked in advance.

What does a website or SEO cost for a Melbourne business?

The published Australian figures: a business website from A$2,500 to A$6,000 by page count and complexity, and SEO retainers from A$1,000 to A$4,500 a month. Social retainers are priced on the services page in the same currency.
