PORRIDGEWEB · AUSTRALIAN WEBSITESWebsite know-how.
Website know-how.
An Australian helping.
A growing resource for Australians building, improving or looking after a website. Clear explanations, useful checklists and a sensible place to start.
For small businesses, sole traders, artists and community projects who want their website to make sense—to them and to the people visiting it.
Start free with the introduction, introductory PDF and template finder. The full member workshop is in owner testing; sign-up and payments are not open yet.
Find your feet. Before you spend.
PorridgeWeb starts with the people your website needs to help. Explore the free introduction, get the introductory PDF and use the public template finder to choose a direction.
A reason for every tool.
The membership page shows working owner-preview screenshots and the resources being developed. These are planned member features, not tools you can unlock today.
Make it look like you.
Seven starting templates and a shared editor, with a live colour studio, contrast checks, Google Font choices, text styling and original starter graphics. A questionnaire and content workbook help organise your words.
Give each page a job.
A prompt builder and eight local helpers cover customer messages, page planning, search previews, campaign links, FAQs, image descriptions, customer actions and trust-building evidence. Ordinary prompt building and local helpers do not make paid AI requests.
Keep good ideas close.
Your Ideas Notebook and editor restore points are planned to help you organise ideas and revisit drafts. Local drafts are not cloud backups; important work still needs a downloaded copy.
Review, export and launch.
Static website ZIP exports, PDF instructions and deployment lessons, plus a draft review with eight bounded checks and six human review prompts. The review helps find loose ends; it does not scan or certify a live website.
Keep improving.
The planned Momentum tier adds conversion, content planning and measurement pathways, campaign-page worksheets, customer-journey resources and improvement checklists.
Live AI, cloud saving, the installed admin and automatic updates are still being built. Final inclusions and AI allowances will be confirmed before payment.

Built around people doing business here.
A local business in Adelaide, a regional maker and an online shop can need very different websites. PorridgeWeb’s focus is helping you ask the right questions for yours.
- Speak to your customers. Plain Australian English, recognisable locations and clear service areas.
- Make the details useful. Contact options, opening hours, relevant time zones and clearly stated currency where prices appear.
- Think beyond the desktop. Readable pages, usable forms and clear actions for people visiting on their phones.
- Know what to check. Australian context for website decisions, with official sources and specialist advice where a question needs them.
Before you put the kettle on.
Who is PorridgeWeb for?
Australian business owners, sole traders, creatives and community organisations who want to understand their website and make more informed decisions. You don’t need to be a developer.
Is everything available already?
The free introduction, introductory PDF and template finder are available. The full library, editor and member resources are in owner testing. Sign-up and payments remain closed until testing is complete; check the membership page for the latest status.
How does it relate to Rob’s AI Tools?
PorridgeWeb is a project from Rob, presented as PorridgeWeb by DigiThat. This site offers small tools for everyday tasks; PorridgeWeb focuses on understanding, planning and improving Australian websites. You can use Rob’s browser tools without joining PorridgeWeb.
Will it tell me everything my business website must do?
The aim is practical education and useful questions to ask. Requirements differ between businesses and can change. General website guidance is not a substitute for advice specific to your business.
