Website design · New Zealand

Websites for small businesses, designed and built by one person.

I’m Sam. I design clear, fast websites for New Zealand businesses and get them live on your own domain. You deal with me from the first conversation to launch.

What I do

Everything from the first sketch to a live website.

  1. 01

    Design

    A site planned around your business, your customers and what you want visitors to do. Not a template with your logo dropped in.

  2. 02

    Build

    Written in plain HTML, CSS and a little JavaScript. No page builder and no plugins to keep updated. It works properly on a phone, and enquiry forms go straight to your inbox.

  3. 03

    Launch

    Your domain, hosting and the technical set-up are looked after, so the site goes live on your own address and loads quickly.

  4. 04

    Be found

    Clear page titles and descriptions, a sitemap and a sensible structure, so search engines and people can both tell what you do.

How it works

Four steps, and you know what’s happening at each one.

  1. Talk

    We talk about your business, who your customers are and what the website needs to do.

  2. Design

    You see the design before anything is built, and we adjust it until you’re happy.

  3. Build

    I build the site and you review it on your own phone and computer.

  4. Launch

    I connect your domain, publish the site and check that everything works as it should.

Tell me what you need

Prices are in New Zealand dollars and cover my design and build work only. You buy your own domain name, and any other extras such as paid add-ons or services, directly from the provider, in your own name. I’ll help you set them up. Anything outside what’s listed is quoted before I start.
