About DESC Designs
Hi, I'm Susan (Sue) Onslow
I'm a Melbourne-based website designer and IT specialist with over 20 years of experience helping businesses build a strong, authentic online presence. Since 2003, I've been creating custom websites, providing reliable IT support, and helping businesses navigate the ever-changing digital world with practical, personalised solutions.
At DESC Designs, I believe every business has a unique story to tell—and your website should tell it well. That's why I don't create cookie-cutter websites. I take the time to understand your business, your goals, your audience, and what makes you different, creating a website that not only looks professional but also connects with your ideal customers and supports your long-term business growth.
Combining creative design with SEO, LLMO (Large Language Model Optimisation), and technical expertise, I build websites that are visually engaging, easy to navigate, fully responsive, and designed to perform across both traditional search engines and today's AI-powered search.
What matters most to me isn't just building websites—it's building relationships. Many of my clients have trusted me with their websites and IT support for years because they know they'll always receive honest advice, reliable support, and personal service from someone who genuinely cares about their success.
When I'm not designing websites or solving technical problems, I'm a wife, mum, proud Nanny to Ivy and Sofia, and cat mum to Max. I believe business should be built on trust, genuine relationships, and conversations that make sense—without the confusing technical jargon.
If you're looking for a Melbourne web designer who speaks your language, takes the time to understand your business, and will support you long after your website goes live, I'd love to help.
Let's create a website that's as unique as your business. 💻✨

Efficient, knowledgeable and very easy to deal with. My website design is better than perfect . A fantastic business to deal with. Thank you Susan @desc.designs
Sue has truly been heaven-sent for my business. She was patient, honest, and explained everything in simple, easy-to-understand language. She is incredibly knowledgeable and up to date with the latest website technology. I highly recommend her services.
100% recommend Desc Designs for your website development/maintenance. Sue was great to work with, explained everything well and was easy to work with.
We honestly couldn’t be happier with the website Sue created for Professional Caulking Group. From the very beginning, she was incredibly patient, easy to deal with, and genuinely cared about getting everything right for our business rather than just building a “standard” website.What stood out most was how much effort she put into understanding our industry, the services we offer, and even how customers search for caulking online. The site feels clean, professional, fast, and actually reflects who we are as a business. Sue has also been amazing with ongoing support — every small issue, layout tweak, broken link, or SEO adjustment has been handled quickly and properly without us having to chase things up.She’s also been proactive with ideas around SEO, blogs, location pages, and improving visibility online, which has been a huge help for us. You can tell she genuinely wants the business to grow, not just finish the project and move on.We’ve worked with a few people over the years for websites and marketing, and this has easily been the smoothest experience we’ve had.Highly recommend Sue to anyone wanting a professional website with real support behind it.Cheers, Professional Caulking Group
Susan at DESC Designs has been an absolute pleasure to work with. From start to finish, the process was seamless, professional and incredibly well communicated. The website looks fantastic and truly reflects our business, and Susan’s attention to detail and knowledge around SEO has been outstanding.She’s approachable, easy to deal with and genuinely cares about delivering a high-quality result. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Susan and DESC Designs to anyone looking for a professional, well-executed website and ongoing support.
A huge thank you to Sue for walking this journey with me. We started the website back in February, then life pressed pause. She’s been patient, kind and steady all the way through. Her graphic flair and eye for detail have made the site look amazing. I’m so grateful 💗
