General
Do I have to host with FL3P to work with you?
Nope! You can bring your own host, or let us manage everything end-to-end. We work with any hosting provider — though if you’d prefer managed hosting, we’ve got Australian-based plans tailored to you.
Can you help if I’m not already a client?
Yes — we offer WordPress rescue and recovery services, even if you’re not yet a client.
Are you really Australian-owned?
Yes — 100% Australian-owned and neurodivergent-led, with 15+ years looking after Australian businesses (Australian Owned Certified #08329). Your work is done by our own team — we don’t hand it off to an agency or a freelancer marketplace. We do keep a small support presence across Australia and Thailand so someone’s reachable across more of the day, but it’s our people, start to finish.
Do you lock me into a contract?
No lock-in contracts. Month-to-month billing gives you freedom and flexibility.
How do you keep my project data confidential?
We abide strictly by the Australian Privacy Principles, and our Terms of Service include a confidentiality clause. We employ the latest technology — Single Sign-On, PassKeys, SSH keys and IP restrictions — to control access to our network, and only authorised team members are granted access to your project data when it’s required.
Do unused care-plan hours roll over?
Unused hours roll over for two months, so you get full value even if you’re quiet. Need more support? Extras are billed at a discounted rate.
What’s included in a Website Care Plan?
Our plans include managed updates, daily backups, performance checks, security scanning, developer hours and priority support — all tailored to your website’s needs and managed by our neurodivergent-led team.
How do I migrate my site to FL3P?
If you or your team are technical, you can register and migrate using our automated tools when purchasing a hosting plan via the self-service portal. If you’d prefer we guide you, book a free discovery call and we’ll assess your needs and handle the migration for you with no downtime.
AI Implementation
Will this replace any of my staff?
No. Our whole approach is to take repetitive, draining tasks off your team so they can focus on the work only people can do. We design for humans-in-the-loop and train your staff to stay in control.
We’re a small not-for-profit. Is this affordable?
We start small and prove value before you scale — usually with one clear bottleneck. There’s a dedicated NFP path; the discovery call is free and we’ll be honest about what’s worth doing.
What if AI isn’t the right answer?
We’ll tell you. Sometimes a simple fix or a better workflow beats AI. Our reputation is built on plain-English honesty, not selling you software you don’t need.
How do you handle our data?
Sensibly and securely. We scope exactly what an AI tool can see, keep humans approving anything that matters, and never hand your operations to a black box.
WordPress Hosting
Is my site hosted in Australia?
Yes — on Australian-based servers in AU data centres, monitored 24×7×365.
Can I manage it myself?
Absolutely. Pick DIY for full control, or managed if you’d rather we handle updates, backups and security.
What if something breaks?
A real person answers. We’ve rescued 200+ sites and keep yours patched so problems are rare.
Do you help me move from another host?
Yes — we migrate you with no downtime and explain every step in plain English.
AI Automation & Workflows
What kind of admin can you automate?
Common ones: client intake, invoicing and billing reminders, scheduling, task tracking and routine reporting. If it’s repetitive and rule-based, it’s usually a good candidate.
Is this safe for sensitive data?
Yes — we scope exactly what each workflow can access, keep it secure, and keep a human approving anything that has real consequences.
Do you have real examples?
We automated a client’s customer portal and billing system, and set up task-tracking systems so small teams stop dropping balls.
Will it break when something changes?
We build for the real world and stay on call. If your process changes, we adjust the workflow — and your team is trained to flag issues early.
Website Design & Development
Do you design for accessibility?
Always. Accessibility is a design principle for us, not an afterthought — clear structure, good contrast, keyboard support and a calm, low-overwhelm experience.
Will I be able to update it myself?
Yes. We build sites your team can manage, and we’ll train your non-technical staff so you’re never stuck waiting on us.
Do you handle hosting too?
We can — our Australian WordPress hosting and care plans mean one trusted team looks after the whole thing.
Will my site be found on Google and AI assistants?
Yes — we build AIEO and SEO best practice in from day one, so you’re discoverable by search engines and AI assistants alike.
Custom AI Tools & Assistants
What sort of tools do you build?
Accounts-team unblockers, sales assistants that surface the right product info, call qualification and triage, internal knowledge assistants, and interactive training tools.
Do you have a real example?
Yes — we built interactive training and resource tools for a small not-for-profit, then taught their non-technical staff to run it themselves.
How do you stop it giving wrong answers?
We ground the tool in your real information, scope what it can do, and design it to route anything uncertain or important to a human.
Can our team manage it without us calling you constantly?
That’s the goal. We train your staff to use and maintain the tool so you stay in control, not dependent on us.
WordPress Care Plans
What’s the difference between Standard and Pro?
Standard includes 5 hours of hands-on time a month; Pro includes 10. Both cover updates, backups, security and monitoring — Pro just gives you more room for changes and improvements.
What can the monthly hours be used for?
Content updates, small design changes, fixes, improvements — whatever your site needs that month. We’ll always tell you honestly what’s worth doing.
What if my site breaks outside the plan?
We’re on call. We’ve rescued 200+ sites, and being on a care plan means problems are caught early and sorted fast.
Is the care plan tied to hosting with you?
It works best alongside our Australian hosting, but talk to us — we’ll find the right arrangement for your situation.
AI Training & Enablement
Our staff aren’t technical at all. Is that a problem?
Not at all — that’s exactly who this is for. We’ve taught non-technical NFP staff to run their own tools, in plain English, without anyone feeling out of their depth.
Why does training matter so much?
Because a tool you can’t run yourself just moves the dependency. Training is what leaves your team genuinely more capable and in control — it’s our differentiator.
Do you train us on tools you didn’t build?
Yes. If you’re already using AI tools and feeling lost, we can get your team confident and safe with them.
How long does it take?
Usually short, focused sessions tied to real tasks — we’ll scope it on a free discovery call and be honest about what’s worth doing.
WordPress Fixes
My site is down right now — can you help?
Yes. Message us on WhatsApp or start a live chat and a real person will help. Fast rescue is exactly what this service is for.
Do I have to be hosted with you?
No — we rescue sites wherever they’re hosted. If you’d like ongoing peace of mind afterwards, we can talk about hosting or a care plan.
My site was hacked. Can you clean it?
Yes. We clean compromised sites, close the hole that let it happen, and harden things so it’s far less likely to recur.
Will you explain what went wrong?
Always, in plain English. You’ll understand what broke and what we did, without feeling out of your depth.
AI Content & Discoverability
What’s AIEO and how is it different from SEO?
SEO gets you found on Google. AIEO (or GEO) gets you found and cited by AI assistants like ChatGPT and Perplexity. Most good AIEO practice also strengthens classic SEO — we treat them together.
How long until it works?
First AI-citation wins typically land in around 4–8 weeks, with momentum building over 3–6 months. Discovery-call bookings and calls remain the metric that matters from day one.
Is this available now?
This service is rolling out in phase 2. In the meantime, we build AIEO best practice into every site we make — talk to us and we’ll point you the right way.
Project Consulting
We’ve got a tangle of tools and no one knows how it fits together. Can you help?
That’s exactly what this is for. We map what you have, find what’s slowing you down, and give you a clear plan to simplify it.
Will you push us toward expensive solutions?
No. We favour the simplest solution that meets the need. We’ll happily tell you when doing less is the right call.
Can consulting lead into AI or automation work?
It often does — once we see the whole picture, the right automation or AI tool becomes obvious. But only where it genuinely helps.
How do we start?
A free discovery call. We’ll listen, ask the right questions, and be honest about how we can help.
Still have a question?
No phone trees, no overwhelm. Message us on WhatsApp, start a live chat, or book a discovery call — whatever feels easiest.
