Club or Membership Website

Is your club growing beyond what your committee can manage?

DP Web Design can help by creating a database-driven website with access-level control — giving you full flexibility over what members can see and do.

Building a club or membership website is a specialised service with unique requirements. The default features listed below cover the essential building blocks of most membership platforms.

Since every club is different, pricing can vary — so we recommend a quick chat to go over your specific needs. From there, we’ll provide a clear, tailored quote based on exactly what your website requires.

What Comes with Your Club or Membership Website?

Full Membership Control:

If required, there can be multi level admin access with varying levels of control directly from the website's front end or administration.

Blogs, Stories & Member Content:

You can create blogs or online newsletters, then assign it to specific membership levels if you like. You can even send these blogs out as email newsletters, so your members don't miss a thing.

Payment Functionality:

Depending on your club, you may require instant payment, or you may have to vet and interview before membership is paid. We can set this up either way using Direct Deposit, PayPal, or a Gateway like eWay (keep in mind payment gateways charge fees for their usage).

Membership Default Features

Base Build Website:

The website will be built using all the features of our Base Build Package. Then we'll enhance this by adding any requested features you require.

Online Registration Form:

You are most likely registering members manually using a Word document or PDF. This can be turned into an online form where the potential member can submit all their information themselves.

Registration Verification & Notifications:

Depending on your club's procedures, verification can be setup multiple ways, manually, automatically or after payment auto verification. Let us know your needs, and we'll make it as streamlined as possible for you.

Members Area:

Naturally, there is a members area that can only be accessed by vetted and verified members. You can have multiple access levels that grant access to multi teared club members (e.g. Super Admin, Admin, Committee Members, Club Members, Expired Members and so on).

A Homepage Designed to Guide Visitors

Every business is different, but most successful websites follow a layout structure that feels familiar and easy to navigate. We build your homepage around a proven format designed to guide visitors smoothly from first impression to action — highlighting your key message, services, and what sets you apart.

Typical sections include a headline and intro, service highlights, testimonials, image galleries, trust signals, and clear calls to action like contact prompts or enquiry forms.

There’s plenty of flexibility — we can include variations like video sections, team profiles, featured blog posts, or upcoming events, depending on what best suits your business. The result is a homepage that feels intuitive to use and fully aligned with your brand and goals.

Note: Base SEO setup is included, but first-page rankings on Google require a dedicated SEO service.

Client Area & Website Support

Every new website comes with access to your own secure Client Area, where you'll find easy-to-follow video tutorials on how to update and manage your site — no tech skills needed.

We include a few starter lessons tailored to your website, and if there’s something specific you’d like to learn, just ask — we can add custom tutorials to suit. Plus, the YOOtheme builder we use has an extensive library of tutorials available online, giving you extra flexibility to explore and learn at your own pace.

That said, you don’t have to do it all yourself. Our hosting and security package includes one hour of support each year, and most clients simply ask us to handle minor updates for them. If you need more help, flexible support packages are also available.

Right at the top of your homepage, a striking feature banner — also known as a hero section — grabs attention with a bold image or key message. It’s the first thing visitors see, and it’s designed to instantly communicate who you are and what you offer. More than just eye-catching, this section sets the tone for your brand and gently guides users toward taking action, whether that’s exploring your services, getting in touch, or making a purchase.

Your website will look great on any screen — mobile, tablet, or desktop. Every layout is built to adapt smoothly, so visitors get a clean, user-friendly experience no matter what device they’re on.

Responsive design isn’t just about looks — it’s also vital for SEO. Google uses mobile-first indexing, meaning it ranks websites based on how they perform on mobile. A responsive site helps ensure you’re not left behind in search results.

We don’t just fit your business into a pre-made template. At DP Web Design, we create websites as individual as your business itself.

Our designs are guided by your existing logo, company colours, and style guides. If you don’t have these yet, we can help develop a fresh look and feel for you.
The layout is usually selected with input from both you and our team, and then tailored with your branding, colours, and images to create a site that’s truly original.

We’ll add your provided text and images to the site — all part of the standard package. Most clients send through things like their logo, a few photos of their work, and basic details about their services. If you don’t have images, we’ll include high-quality stock photos at no extra charge to get you up and running.

Need help with wording? You can send a rough outline — even dot points or a brochure — and we’ll polish it up using AI (ChatGPT), included at no cost. If you’d prefer a professional copywriter or custom photography, we can quote those services separately.
