Week 1
A coffee or a call in New Plymouth. We learn how your customers find you, what they ask, and what the site has to do for the business.
Week 1–2
Real pages with your words in them, on your phone, before a line of production code. You comment; we refine.
Week 2–8
Hand-built and tested on slow phones and old laptops. Accessible, fast and found by search from day one.
Launch day
Domain, email records, Google Business Profile, redirects from your old site. We stay on call for the first week.
Ongoing
On the monthly plans: hosting, updates, backups and small changes, plus ongoing improvements, from someone who answers the phone and lives down the road.
Every package starts with a one-off build, and the two monthly plans add a fixed monthly fee for hosting and care. The prices on this page are starting points; after a first chat we send a fixed quote, so you know the full cost before anything starts.
Build & handover is a one-off: we build the site and give you everything to run it yourself. Build, host & maintain adds a monthly plan where we host and look after it. Build, host, maintain & improve adds a standing plan to keep making it better, with monthly reviews, new content and ongoing changes.
Each month we review how the site performs: speed, what people search for, which pages bring enquiries and where visitors drop off. Then we act on it, with new pages, better wording, faster loading and fixes. You get a short plain-English summary of what changed and why.
Taranaki is home and our focus, from Waitara to Hāwera. We do work with businesses elsewhere in New Zealand, but we are at our best when we can visit, see how you work and meet your customers.
Yes, on every package. You own your domain, your content and the code we write for you. On Build & handover we hand it all over at launch. On the monthly plans you can ask for a full handover at any time and we send it over in working order.
Yes. Many people start with Build & handover and move to a monthly plan later, or step up to the improvement plan once the site is bringing in enquiries. Moving between plans takes a conversation, not a new project.
No long lock-in. The monthly plans run month to month and you can cancel with a month’s notice. If you leave, we hand your site over so you can host it elsewhere.
Every site is built to be fast and well structured for search, with pages for the towns you serve and a Google Business Profile link. The improvement plan keeps working on it every month. No one can honestly guarantee rankings, and we will not.
A short message is plenty. We reply within one working day with honest advice, even if that’s “you don’t need a new website yet”.
