Version 1 A Pet Website Built From Scratch for Australia

Pet Sales Australia is my own business, so this one's a little different. I own and run it, and this is the first version of the pet website I built for it.

The results

Counts are from the site's sitemaps on the 31st of October 2026.

  • 73

    Pages live

    25 main pages and 48 animal pages.

  • 35

    Breed pages

    30 dog breeds and 5 cat breeds so far.

  • 10

    Guides

    10 guides for people buying a pet, or listing one for sale.

Where it started

It went live on the 29th of October 2026. Listings open soon, so for now it's a place to read the guides, look up breeds and check the pet ad rules state by state.

This page is a first version too. I'll update it as the site improves.

What I built

Pet Sales Australia guides page on a phone, 2026
Guides to read before buying.
  • I built the website from scratch so the pages load fast on a phone.
  • I published 10 guides for people buying or listing a pet, on pet scams, puppy farms, prices and where to buy a puppy or a kitten.
  • I set out the pet ad rules state by state, so sellers can see what an ad has to show where they live, like a source number in Victoria.
  • I built pages for dog and cat breeds, and for the other kinds of pets people look for, so buyers can look up a breed before they buy.
  • I wrote a guide to Victorian source numbers that links people through to the Pet Exchange Register, where they can check a seller's number.
