What you get from a local builder.

One person, start to finish

You deal with me from the first conversation to launch day and after it. No account manager in between.

Built from scratch

No page builders and no templates. The site is coded for your business, so it loads fast on a phone.

Prices on the page

The packages and their prices are published below. You know the number before we start.

No contract

Website plans have no contract and you can cancel any month. Your domain and your data stay yours.

How a build works.

01 · Brief

We talk through your business, your customers, and what you want them to do when they land on your site.

02 · Design

A clean layout built around your strongest message. Designed for a phone first, fast to load, nothing wasted.

03 · Build

Coded from scratch. No slow page builders and no bloated templates.

04 · Review

You check everything before it goes live. One round of changes, no hidden extras.

05 · Launch

Live on Cloudflare, your domain connected and SSL sorted. Most builds take two to three weeks.

The build

  • Three pages: a home page, one page covering what you do, and a contact page
  • Built from our library of proven page sections, in your colours and with your words. It is a known-good layout rather than a design drawn from scratch, which is what keeps the price here
  • We write the words for you from a short set of questions, and you approve them before anything goes live
  • A contact form that emails every enquiry straight to you
  • A click-to-call button, so someone on a phone rings you in one tap
  • A map, so people can see where you are
  • Your own domain connected, with a proper security certificate so browsers open it without warnings
  • Live inside a week
  • One round of changes before it goes live

The $49 a month

  • Hosting, so the site stays online
  • Your .co.nz domain, including the annual renewal, so it never lapses and nobody else can take it
  • The security certificate, kept valid and renewed
  • Security updates and backups
  • Uptime monitoring, so we know it is down before you do
  • One content change a month, made for you

No contract, cancel any month

Essentials

For a business that will be judged on its website and knows it.

then $79a month

Excludes GST. Pay a year up front: $790, two months free.

Everything in Quick Start, plus

What is added

  • Up to five pages instead of three
  • Designed for you rather than assembled from the library, so it does not look like the other sites we have built
  • Words written to win the enquiry, not just describe the business. There is a real difference between a page that explains what you do and a page that makes someone act
  • Search structure built in. In plain terms: page titles, headings, a sitemap and structured data. These are the things Google and AI tools read to work out what you are and who to show you to. Without them a site is invisible no matter how good it looks
  • Your Google Business Profile connected, so your Maps listing and your website say the same thing
  • Photos resized and compressed, so pages load fast on a phone rather than stalling on mobile data
  • Two rounds of changes before it goes live instead of one
  • An edit panel. You log in and change text, swap a photo or fix a detail yourself. It is built so you cannot accidentally break the layout

The $79 a month

  • Everything listed under Quick Start's monthly
  • Two content changes a month instead of one

No contract, cancel any month · Save $100 on setup and $10 a month against buying the parts separately

Professional

For a business where the website carries real weight and has to do more than exist.

from$1,499to set up

Excludes GST. Pay a year up front: $790, two months free.

Start here

Everything in Essentials, plus

What is added

  • Six to eight pages included. Past eight pages it is $150 a page, so the price is never a guess
  • A design direction researched against three real businesses in your category, so the site fits the market you are actually competing in rather than looking like a generic template
  • One signature section built only for you. This is the part of the page nobody else has and cannot copy, and it is usually the reason someone remembers the site
  • Custom features built around how you work, such as multi-stage application forms, booking flows, filtering, or an on-site tool that answers visitors' questions
  • Full technical setup: sitemap, structured data, fast loading, and accessibility work so the site is usable for everyone
  • Two full rounds of review, not just changes. We go back over the whole thing twice before you are asked for anything

The $79 a month

  • The same as Essential: hosting, certificate, security, backups, monitoring, and two content changes a month

  • One or more signature experiences chosen from the C.E.A Smith capability library, such as cinematic scroll storytelling, film sections, interactive project galleries or an on-site calculator
  • A motion system with a budget: two or three considered moments per page, and a still version for anyone whose device asks for reduced motion
  • Photography and film direction for the pages that carry the brand
  • Held to the same speed standard as every other package, so premium never means slow
